Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On March 11, 2005, Silverleaf Resorts, Inc. sold the water distribution and waste water treatment utilities assets at eight of its timeshare resorts for an aggregate purchase price of $13.2 million, which resulted in a gain of approximately $1.0 million.
During 2004, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Agreement”) between the Company, as seller, and Algonquin Water Resources, of Texas, LLC, a Texas limited liability company; Algonquin Water Resources of Missouri, LLC, a Missouri limited liability company; Algonquin Water Resources of Illinois, LLC, an Illinois limited liability company; Algonquin Water Resources of America, Inc., a Delaware corporation; and Algonquin Power Income Fund, an open-ended investment trust established under the laws of Ontario, Canada (collectively, the “Purchasers”). Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company conditionally agreed to sell to the Purchasers the water distribution and waste water treatment utilities at eight of its resorts located in Texas, Missouri, and Illinois for an aggregate cash purchase price of $13.2 million. However, the effectiveness and mutual enforceability of the Agreement was conditioned upon, among other things, receiving the approval of the Company’s senior lenders who held liens on these assets. All conditions to the effectiveness of the Agreement were met on March 11, 2005, the date on which the Company and the Purchasers closed the sale of these utilities assets.
Purchasers and their affiliates own electricity generating, water distribution, and waste water handling facilities in Canada and the United States. Certain of the Purchasers have entered into a services agreement to provide uninterrupted water supply and waste water treatment services to the Company’s eight timeshare resorts to which the transferred utility assets relate. The Purchasers will charge the Company’s timeshare resorts the tariffed rate for those utility services that are regulated by the states in which the resorts are located. For any unregulated utility services, the Purchasers will charge a rate set in accordance with the ratemaking procedures of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality.
The proceeds of the Company’s sale of these utility assets will be used to reduce senior debt in accordance with the Company’s loan agreements with its senior lenders.
Notwithstanding the closing of this sale of utilities assets, the Agreement contains provisions relating to the required post-closing receipt of customary governmental approvals from utility regulators in Missouri and Texas. Specifically, if the Purchasers do not receive required approvals from Missouri regulators relating to the utility assets in Missouri (the “Missouri Assets”) within twelve months of closing, the Missouri Assets will be reconveyed to the Company, the transaction involving the Missouri Assets will be rescinded, and the Company will be obligated to return to the Purchasers approximately $3.8 million of the purchase price attributable to the Missouri Assets. Similarly, if the Purchasers do not receive required approvals from Texas regulators relating to the utility assets in Texas (the “Texas Assets”) within eighteen months of closing, the Texas Assets will be reconveyed to the Company, the transaction involving the Texas Assets will be rescinded, and the Company will be obligated to return to the Purchasers approximately $6.2 million of the purchase price attributable to the Texas Assets.
Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
As described in Item 1.01 above, the Registrant disposed of certain water distribution and waste water treatment utilities assets on March 11, 2005. The response to Item 1.01 of this Form 8-K is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 2.01.
Item 8.01 Other Events
On March 15, 2005, the Company issued a press release announcing the sale of certain water distribution and waste water treatment utilities assets in Illinois, Texas and Missouri. The press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
