Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
As previously reported in the Twinlab Consolidated Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 22, 2014, Twinlab Consolidation Corporation (“TCC”) entered into an option agreement in September 2014 (as further amended, the “Option Agreement”) that gave TCC an exclusive option to acquire all of the outstanding equity of a marketer and distributor of nutritional products. Pursuant to the exercise of the option, effective August 13, 2015, TCC entered into a Unit Purchase Agreement, as amended (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Naomi L. Balcombe and Robert G. Whittel (the “Sellers”), pursuant to which at the closing of the acquisition TCC would acquire all of the outstanding membership interest units (the “Units”) of Organic Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Organic”) from the Sellers and the other members of Organic.
Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, TCC would acquire all of the Units for a purchase price of $37,000,000, payable at the closing of the acquisition, of which $100,000 has been paid as a deposit.
TCC and the Sellers have each provided customary representation, warranties and covenants in the Purchase Agreement, and the Sellers have agreed to be bound by certain non-compete and non-solicitation provisions. The Sellers have also agreed to customary indemnification of TCC and its affiliates for certain losses and damages, by way of the cancellation of shares of common stock of the Company owned by an affiliate of the Sellers.
TCC is not required to close the acquisition, and may elect not to close for any reason. The last day on which TCC may close the acquisition is the later of October 2, 2015 or five (5) business days after the date on which the Sellers deliver any supplements or amendment to the disclosure schedules to the Purchase Agreement. If TCC chooses not to close the acquisition by that date, then subject to certain exceptions, TCC is obligated to pay the Sellers a break-up fee of $500,000, in addition to the deposit referred to above. If TCC closes the acquisition, Organic’s founder and chief executive officer has agreed to enter into an employment agreement with TCC.
