QUANTUMONLINE.COM SECURITY DESCRIPTION:  Thompson Creek Metals Co., Tangible Equity Units (tMEDS), stated amount $25 per unit, initially consisting of units which include a prepaid stock purchase contract and a 6.50% senior amortizing note due 5/15/2015 with a principal amount of $4.075312. The stock purchase contract will automatically settle for a variable number of shares of Thompson Creek Metals Co. (NYSE: TC) common stock on 5/15/2015. The stock purchase settlement rate will be 4.5855 shares per unit if the then current market price is equal to or greater than $5.45 and 5.3879 shares per unit if the market price is equal to or less than $4.64. For market prices between those values the settlement rate will be $25 divided by the market value. Prior to the IPO of this security, the last reported sale price of the common stock on 5/4/2012 was $5.53 per share. At any time prior to the third scheduled trading day immediately preceding May 15, 2015, you may settle any or all of your purchase contracts early for: (i) if you settle purchase contracts prior to November 10, 2012, 4.3562 and (ii) if you settle purchase contracts commencing on November 11, 2012, 4.5855. At the holders option, each tMEDS may be separated into its constituent purchase contract and amortizing note, and the separate components may later be combined to recreate a tMEDS. The senior amortizing note will pay quarterly distributions of 6.50% ($0.406250) per quarter (except for the August 15, 2012 installment payment, which will be $0.424306) on 2/15, 5/15, 8/15 & 11/15 to holders of record on the record date which is 15 calendar days prior to the payment date (NOTE: the ex-dividend date is at least 2 business days prior to the record date). Distributions paid by these securities are derived from interest paid on the underlying debt securities and therefore are NOT eligible for the 15% tax rate on dividends and are also NOT eligible for the dividend received deduction for corporate holders. The senior amortizing notes are unsecured and rank equally with the company's other unsecured senior indebtedness.
