Item 2.01.  Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On August 1, 2016, Triumph Bancorp, Inc., a Texas corporation (the “Company”) completed its previously announced acquisition of ColoEast Bankshares, Inc., a Colorado corporation (“ColoEast”) pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 6, 2016, by and among the Company, Peak Acquisition Corp., a newly formed Colorado corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), and ColoEast (the “Merger Agreement”).  At the effective time of the merger, Merger Sub merged with and into ColoEast with ColoEast continuing as the surviving corporation as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”).  Pursuant to and subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each outstanding share of ColoEast common stock was converted into the right to receive a pro rata share of $70,000,000 in cash.  Based on the number of shares of ColoEast common stock outstanding immediately prior to the Merger, each outstanding share of ColoEast common stock was converted into the right to receive $673.79 in cash.  

Following the consummation of the Merger, Colorado East Bank & Trust, a Colorado-chartered bank and a wholly owned subsidiary of ColoEast, merged with and into TBK Bank, SSB, a Texas-chartered state savings bank and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, with TBK Bank, SSB surviving such merger (the “Bank Merger” and together with the Merger, the “Mergers”).

The foregoing description of the Mergers and the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and incorporated by reference herein.

Item 2.03.  Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant

In connection with the Mergers, pursuant to a Supplemental Indenture, dated as of August 1, 2016, by and among the Company, ColoEast and Wilmington Trust Company, a Delaware trust company, as Trustee, the Company assumed all of ColoEast’s obligations with respect to its outstanding trust securities (the “TRUPS I Securities”), including $5,155,000 of junior subordinated debt, due 2035, related to ColoEast Capital Trust I, a Delaware statutory trust, with an interest rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.60%.  Interest on the TRUPS I Securities is payable quarterly on every March 30, June 30, September 30 and December 30, but such payments may be deferred for up to twenty consecutive quarterly periods.  The TRUPS I Securities are redeemable at the Company’s option in whole or, if all accrued and unpaid interest has been paid on such TRUPS I Securities for all interest periods terminating on or prior to such date, from time to time in part on any March 30, June 30, September 30 and December 30 for a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the TRUPS I Securities being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of such redemption.
