Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement
Equity Interest Purchase Agreement
On May 6, 2014, Interval Leisure Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Equity Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with S.O.I. Acquisition Corp., a Florida corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Purchaser”), Hyatt Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Hyatt”), and HTS-Aspen, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (“HTS-Aspen” and, together with Hyatt, each a “Seller” and collectively, “Sellers”), pursuant to which Purchaser has agreed to acquire all of the equity interests of certain subsidiaries of Sellers (the “Acquired Companies”) that own and operate Sellers’ vacation ownership business (the “Transaction”). As consideration for the consummation of the Transaction, Purchaser will pay Sellers approximately $190 million in cash at the closing, subject to customary post-closing adjustments, plus Purchaser will reimburse Hyatt for its capital contribution associated with its interest in a joint venture related to a 131-unit vacation ownership property in Maui (currently estimated at $35 million assuming an early fourth quarter 2014 closing).
The Transaction is not subject to any financing conditions but remains subject to customary closing conditions. In particular, the closing is subject to the parties or their affiliates entering into ongoing agreements with respect to the Acquired Companies including a Master License Agreement which provides Purchaser an exclusive license for the Hyatt® brand in connection with the vacation ownership business.
The parties to the Purchase Agreement have made to each other certain customary representations and warranties, and have agreed to certain customary covenants, agreements and indemnification provisions.
The Company’s obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement is also subject to, among other things, (i) Sellers having obtained certain required consents, (ii) the absence of a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) after the date of the Purchase Agreement, (iii) the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the parties, (iv) the parties having performed and complied in all material respects with all of the covenants and agreements contained in the Purchase Agreement, (v) the absence of any pending proceeding seeking to enjoin, prohibit or make illegal the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, and (vi) delivery of certain documents and agreements (as listed in the Purchase Agreement).
The Purchase Agreement may be terminated in certain circumstances, including, among others, if the transaction does not close by December 31, 2014.
The description and provisions of the Purchase Agreement above are summaries only and are not necessarily complete. A copy of the Purchase Agreement will be filed with the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter in which the Transaction closes.
