Nigel S. Wright, director of Hawker Beechcraft, Inc., the owner of Hawker Beechcraft Acquisition Company, LLC (the “Company”), informed the Company that his resignation as a director of Hawker Beechcraft, Inc. is effective October 22, 2010. His resignation is not the result of a disagreement with the Company.
Effective October 22, 2010, a majority of the shareholders of Hawker Beechcraft, Inc. elected Seth M. Mersky, 51, as a director to fill the vacancy created by Nigel Wright’s resignation. He also will serve as Chairman of the Hawker Beechcraft, Inc. Compensation Committee. Mr. Merksy joined Onex Corporation in 1997, and is currently a Managing Director of Onex Corporation. Mr. Mersky is also a director of Sitel Worldwide, Gates Corporation and Allison Transmission, Inc. Prior to joining Onex, Mr. Mersky served as Senior Vice President, Corporate Banking, for Bank of Nova Scotia.
Under the Amended and Restated Shareholders’ Agreement, as amended, dated as of May 3, 2007, by and among Hawker Beechcraft, Inc., Onex Partners II LP and several of its affiliates (the “Onex Entities”), GS Capital Partners VI Fund, L.P. and several of its affiliates and the Management Shareholders, the Board of Directors will consist of eight directors, including two directors designated by the Onex Entities. Mr. Wright was one of two directors designated by the Onex Entities. Mr. Mersky will serve as a director designated by the Onex Entities. Upon Mr. Wright’s resignation and Mr. Mersky’s election, two directors designated by the Onex Entities serve on the Board of Directors.
The Onex Entities own approximately 49% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Hawker Beechcraft, Inc. Affiliates of Onex Partners II LP currently own a controlling interest in Spirit AeroSystems Holdings, Inc. (“Spirit”), one of our suppliers. Spirit supplies certain components for aircraft manufactured by Hawker Beechcraft Corporation, the principal operating subsidiary of Hawker Beechcraft, Inc.
The Company was advised that, following December 31, 2009, an entity affiliated with Goldman Sachs & Co. and Onex Partners II LP completed open-market purchases of $152.8 million of its outstanding senior notes and senior subordinated notes as of February 25, 2010. The debt acquired by such entity has not been retired and the Company continues to pay interest in accordance with the terms of the debt.
The Company is party to a management services arrangement with the investment managers of GS Capital Partners VI, L.P., and its related funds, and of Onex Partners II LP, respectively. Under the arrangement, the Company pays these parties an annual aggregate fee of $2.0 million, plus reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, as compensation for various advisory services. This fee is shared equally by the two sets of investment managers. The Company also agreed to indemnify these parties and their affiliates for liabilities arising from their actions under the management services arrangement.
Directors such as Mr. Mersky who are also employees of the Onex Entities, or their respective affiliates, receive no additional compensation for serving as directors.
