Durango Merger Agreement
On April 9, 2018, Triumph Bancorp, Inc., a Texas corporation (the Company) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Durango Merger Agreement) by and between the Company and First Bancorp of Durango, Inc., a Colorado corporation (Durango). The Durango Merger Agreement provides that, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, Durango will merge with and into the Company (the Durango Merger), with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation in the Durango Merger. Immediately following the Durango Merger (or at such later time as the Company may determine in its sole discretion), each of First National Bank of Durango, a national bank and wholly owned subsidiary of Durango, and Bank of New Mexico, a New Mexico-chartered bank and a wholly owned subsidiary of Durango, will merge with and into the Companys wholly owned bank subsidiary, TBK Bank, SSB (TBK Bank), with TBK Bank surviving the bank mergers.
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Durango Merger Agreement, which has been unanimously approved by the board of directors of each of the Company and Durango, at the effective time of the Durango Merger, each outstanding share of Durango common stock will be converted into the right to receive a pro rata share of approximately $134.5 million in cash, without interest, subject to certain adjustments based upon Durangos tangible book value at the closing of the Durango Merger (the Durango Closing) as provided in the Durango Merger Agreement.
The Durango Merger Agreement contains customary representations and warranties from the Company and Durango, and Durango has agreed to customary covenants, including, among others, covenants relating to (1) the conduct of Durangos business during the interim period between the execution of the Durango Merger Agreement and the Durango Closing, (2) Durangos obligations relating to obtaining the Durango shareholders approval of the Durango Merger and (3) subject to certain exceptions, the recommendation by the board of directors of Durango in favor of the approval by its shareholders of the Durango Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. Durango has also agreed not to (1) solicit proposals relating to alternative business combination transactions or (2) subject to certain exceptions, enter into any discussions or any agreement concerning any proposals for alternative business combination transactions.
Completion of the Durango Merger is subject to certain customary conditions, including (1) approval of the Durango Merger Agreement by Durangos shareholders, (2) receipt of required regulatory approvals, (3) the absence of any law or order prohibiting the consummation of the Durango Merger and (4) the occurrence of the SCC Closing (defined below). Each partys obligation to complete the Durango Merger is also subject to certain additional customary conditions, including subject to certain exceptions, the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the other party and performance in all material respects by the other party of its obligations under the Durango Merger Agreement. The Companys obligation to complete the Durango Merger is also subject to (1) there having occurred no event or development that has had or would reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on Durango and (2) receipt of the requisite regulatory approvals not having resulted in the imposition of a burdensome condition.
The foregoing description of the Durango Merger and the Durango Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Durango Merger Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
Durango Voting Agreement
In connection with entering into the Durango Merger Agreement, the Company entered into a Voting and Support Agreement with Durango and certain of Durangos shareholders (the Durango Voting Agreement). The shareholders that are party to the Durango Voting Agreement beneficially own in the aggregate approximately 90% of the outstanding shares of Durango common stock. The Durango Voting Agreement requires that the shareholders party thereto vote all of their shares of Durango common stock (or provide a written consent to Durango) in favor of the Durango Merger and against alternative transactions and generally prohibits them from transferring their shares of Durango common stock prior to the consummation of the Durango Merger. The Durango Voting Agreement will terminate upon the earlier of the consummation of the Durango Merger and the termination of the Durango Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms.

Immediately following the SCC Merger (or at such later time as the Company may determine in its sole discretion), Citizens Bank of Pagosa Springs, a Colorado-chartered bank and wholly owned subsidiary of SCC, will merge with and into TBK Bank, with TBK Bank surviving the bank merger.
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the SCC Merger Agreement, which has been unanimously approved by the board of directors of each of the Company and SCC, at the effective time of the SCC Merger, each outstanding share of SCC common stock will be converted into the right to receive a pro rata share of approximately $13 million in cash, without interest, subject to certain adjustments based upon SCCs tangible book value at the closing of the SCC Merger (the SCC Closing) as provided in the SCC Merger Agreement.

The transaction agreements are attached as exhibits to this Current Report on Form 8-K in order to provide investors and security holders with information regarding the respective terms of the transactions and are not intended to provide any other financial information about the Company, Durango, SCC or ICC or any of their respective subsidiaries and affiliates. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in each of the agreements were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, are solely for the benefit of the parties to the respective agreements, may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the parties thereto, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purpose of allocating contractual risk between the parties thereto instead of establishing these matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the parties thereto that differ from those applicable to investors. Investors should not rely on the representations, warranties or covenants or any description thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company, Durango, SCC or ICC or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates.

Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On April 9, 2018, the Company filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) a preliminary prospectus supplement (the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement) in connection with a proposed public offering of shares of the Companys common stock. The Preliminary Prospectus Supplement contains preliminary estimated ranges of unaudited financial results of the Company as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Such preliminary financial results are furnished under the heading Preliminary First Quarter 2018 Results (Unaudited) in the excerpt from the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement filed as Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
The preliminary financial results included in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement are solely management estimates based on currently available information. In preparing the preliminary financial results, the Companys management made a number of complex and subjective judgments and estimates about the appropriateness of certain reported amounts and disclosures. The Companys actual financial results for the first quarter of 2018 have not yet been finalized. The preliminary financial results are not a comprehensive statement of all financial results as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and are not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved for any future period. The Company is required to consider all available information through the finalization of its financial statements and their possible impact on the Companys financial conditions and results of operations for the period, including the impact of such information on the complex judgments and estimates referred to above. As a result, subsequent information or events may lead to material differences between the information about the results of operations described in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement and the results of operations described in the Companys subsequent quarterly report.
3
The Companys independent registered public accounting firm, Crowe Horwath LLP, has not audited or reviewed, and does not express an opinion with respect to, the preliminary financial results.
The information provided in this Item 2.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K shall not be deemed filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing. The information furnished in this Item 2.02 of this Current Report, including Exhibit 99.2 attached hereto, shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
On April 9, 2018, the Company issued a press release announcing the execution of the Durango Merger Agreement, the SCC Merger Agreement and the ICC Purchase Agreement. In addition, the Company issued a press release announcing that it has commenced a public offering of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share, and that it intends to grant the underwriters an option, exercisable in whole or in part for 30 days, to purchase additional shares. The press releases are attached as Exhibit 99.3 and Exhibit 99.4, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K may contain forward-looking statements. Any statements about the Companys expectations, beliefs, plans, predictions, forecasts, objectives, assumptions, or future events or performance are not historical facts and may be forward-looking. You can identify forward-looking statements by the use of forward-looking terminology such as believes, expects, could, may, will, should, seeks, likely, intends, plans, pro forma, projects, estimates, or anticipates, or the negative of these words and phrases or similar words or phrases that are predictions of or indicate future events or trends and that do not relate solely to historical matters. You can also identify forward-looking statements by discussions of strategy, plans or intentions. Forward-looking statements involve numerous risks and uncertainties, and you should not rely on them as predictions of future events. Forward-looking statements depend on assumptions, data, or methods that may be incorrect or imprecise, and the Company may not be able to realize them. The Company does not guarantee that the transactions and events described will happen as described (or that they will happen at all). The following factors, among others, could cause actual results and future events to differ materially from those set forth or contemplated in the forward-looking statements: risks relating to the Companys ability to consummate the pending acquisitions of Durango and SCC, and the Companys pending acquisition of the operating assets of ICC and certain of its affiliates, including the possibility that the expected benefits related to the pending acquisitions may not materialize as expected; of the pending acquisitions not being timely completed, if completed at all; that prior to the completion of the pending acquisitions, the targets businesses could experience disruptions due to transaction-related uncertainty or other factors making it more difficult to maintain relationships with employees, customers, other business partners or governmental entities, difficulty retaining key employees; and of the parties being unable to successfully implement integration strategies or to achieve expected synergies and operating efficiencies within the Company managements expected timeframes or at all; business and economic conditions generally and in the bank and non-bank financial services industries, nationally and within the Companys local market area; the Companys ability to mitigate its risk exposures; the Companys ability to maintain its historical earnings trends; risks related to the integration of acquired businesses (including the Companys pending acquisitions of Durango and SCC, and the Companys pending acquisition of the operating assets of ICC and certain of its affiliates, and the Companys prior acquisitions of Valley Bancorp, Inc. and nine branches from Independent Bank in Colorado) and any future acquisitions; the Companys ability to successfully identify and address the risks associated with its recent, pending and possible future acquisitions, and the risks that the Companys prior and planned future acquisitions make it more difficult for investors to evaluate its business, financial condition and results of operations, and impairs the Companys ability to accurately forecast its future performance; the Companys actual financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2018 may differ materially from the preliminary financial estimates it has provided as a result of the completion of its financial closing procedures, final adjustments and other developments arising between now and the time that the Companys financial results for such periods are finalized; changes in management personnel; interest rate risk; concentration of its factoring services in the transportation industry; credit risk associated with the Companys loan portfolio; lack of seasoning in the Companys loan portfolio; deteriorating asset quality and higher loan charge-offs; time and effort necessary to resolve nonperforming assets; inaccuracy of the assumptions and estimates the Company makes in establishing reserves for probable loan losses and other estimates; lack of liquidity; fluctuations in the fair value and liquidity of the securities the Company holds for sale; impairment of investment securities, goodwill, other intangible assets, or deferred tax assets; the Companys risk management strategies; environmental liability associated with the Companys lending activities; increased competition in the bank and non-bank financial services industries, nationally, regionally, or locally, which may adversely affect pricing and terms; the accuracy of the Companys financial statements and related disclosures; material weaknesses in the Companys internal control over financial reporting; system failures or failures to prevent breaches of the Companys network security; the institution and outcome of litigation and other legal proceedings against the Company or to which the Company become subject; changes in carry-forwards of net operating losses; changes in federal tax law or policy; the impact of recent and future legislative and regulatory changes, including changes in banking, securities, and tax laws and regulations, such as the Dodd-Frank
4
Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and their application by the Companys regulators; governmental monetary and fiscal policies; changes in the scope and cost of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance and other coverages; failure to receive regulatory approval for future acquisitions; increases in the Companys capital requirements; and other factors identified in the Companys filings with the SEC.
While forward-looking statements reflect the Companys good-faith beliefs, they are not guarantees of future performance. All forward-looking statements are necessarily only estimates of future results. Accordingly, actual results may differ materially from those expressed in or contemplated by the particular forward-looking statement, and, therefore, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements. Any forward-looking statement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the matters discussed in this Current Report on Form 8-K. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events or circumstances, except as required by applicable law. For a discussion of such risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements, see Risk Factors and the forward-looking statement disclosure contained in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on February 13, 2018.
