As previously disclosed on November 4, 2011, PNM Resources, Inc. (“PNMR”) entered into a Sale and Purchase Agreement (the “Sale and Purchase Agreement”) with Cascade Investment, L.L.C. (“Cascade”) under which PNMR was to purchase from Cascade the lesser of (i) 7,019,550 shares of its common stock, no par value (the “Common Stock”) and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock equal to $156,525,490 divided by the purchase price per share (rounded down to the nearest whole share). The Sale and Purchase Agreement also provided that the common stock be purchased at a price per share equal to the product of (a) 0.98 and (b) the arithmetic mean of the volume weighted average price on each trading day in the period beginning October 27, 2011 and ending November 9, 2011. On November 10, 2011, in accordance with the Sale and Purchase Agreement, PNMR purchased 7,019,550 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $125,683,473. Upon closing of the transaction, the shares of common stock repurchased have become authorized but unissued shares, as determined by the PNMR Board of Directors.
