Item 1.01. | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
Semiconductor Components Industries, LLC (“SCILLC”), a wholly-owned subsidiary and primary operating company of ON Semiconductor Corporation (“ON Semiconductor”) entered into an asset purchase agreement (“Purchase Agreement”) with LSI Logic Corporation (“LSI”). Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, SCILLC will purchase LSI’s Gresham, Oregon wafer fabrication facility, including real property, tangible personal property, certain intellectual property, other specified manufacturing equipment and related information. The assets to be purchased include an approximately 83 acre campus with an estimated 500,000 square feet of building space of which approximately 98,000 square feet is clean room. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, SCILLC will offer employment to substantially all of LSI’s manufacturing employees currently working at the Gresham facility. At the closing of the transaction, SCILLC will enter into several ancillary agreements including, but not limited to, a wafer supply and test agreement, intellectual property license agreement, transition services agreement and facility use agreement.
The aggregate purchase price for the acquired assets is approximately $105 million. In connection with the execution of the Purchase Agreement, SCILLC paid LSI a deposit of $10.5 million. In addition, the Purchase Agreement obligates SCILLC to pay $79.5 million at the closing of the transaction and the remaining balance within 90 days thereafter.
The transaction is expected to close after the satisfaction or waiver of all conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, including any necessary regulatory approvals.
