Item 8.01 | Other Events. |
On June 20, 2023, Garrett Motion Inc. (“we” or the “Company”) completed the final step of the conversion of all shares of our Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) into shares of our Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), in accordance with the terms of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Designations for the Series A Preferred Stock.
As previously reported, at approximately 5:00 p.m. New York City time on June 12, 2023, trading of the Series A Preferred Stock on Nasdaq was suspended and each holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock as of the conversion was deemed to hold one share of Common Stock for each share of Series A Preferred Stock then held. On June 20, 2023, all prior holders of Series A Preferred Stock received, in respect of each share of Series A Preferred Stock held immediately prior to the conversion, a payment in lieu of the accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock through June 30, 2023, plus an additional amount representing the dividends that would have accrued on the Series A Preferred Stock through September 30, 2023 (collectively, the “Additional Payment”). In the aggregate, the Additional Payment was comprised of, for each share of Series A Preferred Stock, $0.144375 in cash and approximately 0.104379 shares of Common Stock (representing $0.853509 in accrued and unpaid dividends per share of Common Stock, valued at $8.177 per share), subject to adjustment to avoid the issuance of fractional shares of Common Stock, totaling approximately $25,315,149 in cash and 18,301,481 additional shares of Common Stock. As previously disclosed, on June 5, 2023, as part of the consideration paid in respect of the purchase of approximately $570 million of shares of Series A Preferred Stock from entities related to each of Centerbridge Partners, L.P. and Oaktree Capital Management, L.P., the Company paid to such entities an aggregate of $10,064,071 in cash and 7,276,036 in shares of Common Stock, which represents the accrued and unpaid dividends and additional amounts that such entities would have received upon the conversion of the repurchased shares of Series A Preferred Stock (if they had held such shares on the conversion date).
The Company has approximately 265,574,498 shares of Common Stock outstanding following the completion of these transactions and recent repurchases pursuant to the Company's stock repurchase program.
