MIDDLETOWN, NY / ACCESSWIRE / September 24, 2020 / Orange County Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company" )(OTCQX:OCBI), parent company of Orange Bank & Trust Co. (the "Bank") and Hudson Valley Investment Advisors, Inc. (HVIA), today announced completion of a private placement of $20 million in aggregate principal amount of fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes due 2030 (the "Notes") to certain qualified institutional buyers and accredited institutional investors.

The Notes have a maturity date of September 30, 2030 and bear interest, payable semi-annually, at the rate of 4.25% per annum, until September 30, 2025. Commencing on that date, the interest rate applicable to the outstanding principal amount due will reset quarterly to an interest rate per annum equal to the then current three-month secured overnight financing rate (SOFR) plus 413 basis points, payable quarterly until maturity. The Notes received an A- rating from Egan-Jones Ratings Company.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, including to support organic growth and potential stock repurchases.

"We are pleased to announce the successful completion of our subordinated debt offering on favorable terms. Completion of this offering is consistent with our strategic plan to grow business banking market share in our legacy market of Orange County, New York as well as our exciting newer opportunities in Rockland, Westchester and the Bronx," said Michael Gilfeather, President and Chief Executive Officer at Orange Bank & Trust Company. "The fact the offering was oversubscribed illustrates the financial strength of the institution and this addition of capital gives us the fuel to grow and ability to take advantage of opportunities on behalf of our customers and shareholders, all without diluting ownership of our current shareholders."

Piper Sandler & Co. served as sole placement agent for the offering. Luse Gorman, PC, served as legal counsel to Orange County Bancorp, Inc. and Covington & Burling LLP served as legal counsel to Piper Sandler & Co.
