Item 3.02:
Unregistered
Sales of Equity Securities
On
September 6, 2006, Alexandra Global Master Fund Ltd. (“Alexandra”) exercised its
right to acquire 141,250 shares of the common stock of LSB Industries,
Inc. (the
“Company”) by converting $1 million principal amount of the Company’s
outstanding 7% Convertible Senior Subordinated Debentures due 2011 (the
“Debentures”). Pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, dated March 3, 2006,
governing the Debenture, the conversion rate was 141.25 shares of common
stock
for each $1,000 principal amount of converted Debentures. The issuance
of the
common stock upon conversion of the Debentures will be made in reliance
on the
exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of
1933, as
amended (the “Act”), by virtue of Section 3(a)(9) of the Act.
The
shares of common stock issued and issuable upon conversion of the outstanding
Debentures are registered for resale under the Company’s Form S-1 Registration
Statement, file number 333-134111, declared effective May 26, 2006.
As
a
result of the above described conversion, $17 million of the principal
amount of
the Debentures remain outstanding. During the period from September 1,
2006 to
February 28, 2009, the conversion rate of the Debentures declines every
six
months, starting at 141.25 shares and ending at 129.23 shares per $1,000
principal amount of Debentures (representing an approximate conversion
price of
between $7.08 and $7.74 during such period). On and after March 1, 2009,
the
conversion rate is 125 shares per $1,000 principal amount of Debentures
(representing a conversion price of $8.00 per share). The conversion
rate is
subject to adjustment.
