Item 1.01

Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On May 10, 2018, Colony Bankcorp, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an agreement (the “Warrant Transfer Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company will repurchase outstanding warrants that entitle the holders thereof to purchase, in the aggregate, 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Warrants”) from certain selling entities named in the Warrant Transfer Agreement (the “Sellers”). The Company will pay an aggregate purchase price of $3,175,000 to the Sellers for the repurchase of the Warrants, and the Warrants will be cancelled upon the consummation of the transaction. The repurchase price was based on the fair market value of the Warrants as agreed upon by the Company and the Sellers. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Warrant Transfer Agreement is subject to customary closing conditions, including the non-objection of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta and the approval by the Georgia Department of Banking and Finance of a special dividend from the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Colony Bank, to fund the purchase price.

 

The foregoing description of the Warrant Transfer Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Warrant Transfer Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.
