Item 2.01 | Completion of Acquisition of Disposition of Assets. |
On August 30, 2019, Nine Energy Service, Inc. (“Nine” or the “Company”) entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Brigade Energy Services LLC, Delaware limited liability company (“Brigade”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, on such date, through the sale of all of the limited liability interests of its wholly owned subsidiary, Beckman Holdings Production Services, LLC, Nine sold its Production Solutions segment to Brigade for approximately $17 million in cash, subject to working capital adjustments. The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, covenants and indemnification provisions.
The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Purchase Agreement, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The Purchase Agreement is filed herewith to provide investors with information regarding its terms and is not intended to provide any other factual information about the parties to those agreements. In particular, the assertions embodied in the representations and warranties contained in the Purchase Agreement were made as of the date of the Purchase Agreement only and are qualified by information in confidential disclosure schedules provided by the parties thereto to each other in connection with the signing of the Purchase Agreement. These disclosure schedules contain information that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations and warranties set forth in the Purchase Agreement. Moreover, certain representations and warranties in the Purchase Agreement may have been used for the purpose of allocating risk between the parties thereto rather than establishing matters of fact. Accordingly, you should not rely on the representations and warranties in the Purchase Agreement as characterizations of the actual statements of fact about the parties thereto.
Item 5.02 | Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers. |
