On January 16, 2013, Penn entered into an exchange agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with FIF V (the “Holder”). Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, all of the shares of Penn Series B preferred stock held by the Holder were automatically exchanged for shares of Penn Series C preferred stock at a specified ratio on October 11, 2013. In addition, pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, on October 11, 2013, Penn purchased from the Holder the number of shares of Penn Series C preferred stock required to ensure that, immediately following the consummation of the Spin-Off, the Holder and its affiliates (collectively, the “Fortress Group”) owned not more than 9.9% of the Issuer’s Common Stock. Furthermore, the Exchange Agreement provides that for two years following the Spin-Off the Holder, the Fortress Group and certain other of their affiliates may not transfer any shares of Common Stock received in the Spin-Off or shares of Penn stock in respect of which Common Stock was received pursuant to the Spin-Off unless such shares are transferred in tandem.

Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, on November 1, 2013, the Issuer and the Holder entered into the Investor Rights Agreement (the “Investor Rights Agreement”).

The Investor Rights Agreement also provides that the Issuer will use its reasonable efforts to file a short-form registration statement for the registration and sale of the Registrable Securities with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission within 60 days of the date the Issuer becomes eligible to use a short-form registration statement, and to keep such registration statement continuously effective for so long as the Holder has registration rights. In addition, the Investor Rights Agreement grants the Holder certain information rights and prohibits the Issuer from taking actions during the two year period following entry into the Investor Rights Agreement to increase the Holder’s beneficial ownership of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, directly, indirectly or constructively, above 9.9%. The foregoing description of the Investor Rights Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the terms of the Investor Rights Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.3.
