Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

As previously disclosed, on May 29, 2023, Arlington Asset Investment Corp., a Virginia corporation (“Arlington”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Ellington Financial Inc., a Delaware corporation (“EFC”), EF Merger Sub Inc., a Virginia corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of EFC (“Merger Sub”), and, solely for the limited purposes set forth in the Merger Agreement, Ellington Financial Management LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“EFC Manager”). Pursuant to, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in, the Merger Agreement, Arlington will merge with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”), with Merger Sub continuing as the surviving corporation of the Merger.

 

In connection with the Merger, EFC filed a registration statement on Form S-4 (333-273309) (as amended, the “Registration Statement”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). On November 2, 2023, the Registration Statement was declared effective by the SEC. Subsequently, on November 3, 2023, Arlington and EFC respectively filed a definitive proxy statement/prospectus with respect to the special meeting of shareholders of Arlington, which was initially mailed to Arlington shareholders on or about November 3, 2023 (the “proxy statement/prospectus”).

 

Since the filing of the proxy statement/prospectus, Arlington has received correspondence from law firms claiming to represent purported holders of Arlington Class A common stock alleging deficiencies in the disclosures in the proxy statement/prospectus, either threatening litigation or making other demands relating to the Merger, including that additional disclosures be provided (such letters, the “Demand Letters”).

 

Arlington believes that the claims asserted in the Demand Letters are without merit and that no additional disclosures were or are required under applicable law. However, in order to moot certain of the purported shareholders’ disclosure claims in the Demand Letters, avoid the risk of the Demand Letters delaying or adversely affecting the Merger and minimize the costs, risks and uncertainties inherent in litigation, and without admitting any liability or wrongdoing, Arlington has determined to voluntarily make the following supplemental disclosures to the proxy statement/prospectus, as described in this supplement (this “Supplement”). Nothing in this Supplement shall be deemed an admission of the legal necessity or materiality under applicable laws of any of the disclosures set forth herein.

 

These supplemental disclosures will not change the merger consideration to be paid to Arlington shareholders in connection with the Merger or the timing of the special meeting of Arlington shareholders (the “Arlington Special Meeting”) to be held solely by means of remote communication live over the Internet on December 12, 2023, 9:00 a.m., Eastern Time. The Arlington board of directors (the “Arlington Board”) continues to unanimously recommend that the Arlington shareholders vote “FOR” the proposals to be voted on at the Arlington Special Meeting described in the proxy statement/prospectus.

SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURES TO THE PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS

 

This Supplement should be read in conjunction with the disclosures contained in the proxy statement/prospectus, which in turn should be read in its entirety, along with periodic reports and other information Arlington and EFC file with the SEC. To the extent that information herein differs from or updates information contained in the proxy statement/prospectus, the information contained herein supersedes the information contained in the proxy statement/prospectus. All page references are to the proxy statement/prospectus and terms used below, unless otherwise defined, shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the proxy statement/prospectus. New text within restated language from the proxy statement/prospectus is indicated in bold, underlined text (e.g., bold, underlined text) and removed language within the restated language from the proxy statement/prospectus is indicated in strikethrough text (e.g., strikethrough text), as applicable. The information contained herein speaks only as of December 4, 2023, unless the information indicates another date applies.

 

The section of the proxy statement/prospectus entitled “The Merger—Background of the Merger” is amended and supplemented as follows:

 

 

On May 27, 2023, Mr. Tonkel had a telephonic conversation with Mr. Berce to update him on the status of the transaction. They also discussed which of Arlington’s directors might serve as Arlington’s designee on the EFC Board upon the closing of the transaction, and Mr. Berce indicated that Mr. Tonkel should convey to EFC Mr. Tonkel’s willingness to serve as such designee in a non-executive director capacity. After that conversation, Mr. Tonkel had a telephonic conversation with Mr. Vranos in which he expressed such willingness. Mr. Vranos indicated that this would likely be acceptable to EFC. Mr. Tonkel then updated Mr. Berce on the conversation. Other than with respect to post-transaction representation on the EFC Board, at no time during the parties’ negotiations with respect to the

The section of the proxy statement/prospectus entitled “The Merger—Opinion of Arlington’s Financial Advisor, Wells Fargo Securities” is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

(1) For the Arlington Selected Public Companies Analysis and Arlington Selected Transactions Analysis, see section titled “The Merger—Opinion of Arlington’s Financial Advisor, Wells Fargo Securities—Arlington Financial Analyses” beginning on page 76 of this proxy statement/prospectus, Arlington’s tangible book value as of April 30, 2023 of $183 million was used and calculated as Arlington’s total equity value as of April 30, 2023 less preferred stock liquidation preference of $33 million.

(2) Earnings Available for Distribution is a non-GAAP measure that Arlington defines as net income available to holders of Arlington Common Stock determined in accordance with GAAP adjusted for the following items: (i) plus (less) realized and unrealized losses (gains) on investments and derivatives; (ii) plus (less) income tax provision (benefit) for TRS realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments and derivatives; (iii) plus (less) TBA dollar roll income (loss); (iv) plus (less) interest rate swap net interest income (expense); and (v) plus stock-based compensation. However, because Earnings Available for Distribution is an incomplete measure of Arlington’s financial performance and involves differences from net income computed in accordance with GAAP, it should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income as a measure of financial performance. In addition, because not all companies use identical calculations, Arlington’s presentation of Earnings Available for Distribution may not be comparable to other similarly-titled measures of other companies.

(3) Amounts in this row may not equal the sum of amounts reflected in the preceding rows due to rounding.
