Introduction
This Amendment No. 1 to Rule 13E-3 Transaction Statement, together with the exhibits hereto (“Transaction Statement”), is being filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) pursuant to Section 13(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), by (i) The Hallwood Group Incorporated (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation and the issuer of the shares of Common Stock, par value $.10 per share (the “Common Stock”) that are subject to the Rule 13e-3 transaction; (ii) Hallwood Financial Limited (“Parent”), a British Virgin Islands corporation; (iii) HFL Merger Corporation (“Merger Sub”), a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent; (iv) Hallwood Family Investments Ltd. (“HFI”), a British Virgin Islands business company; and (v) Anthony J. Gumbiner (“Mr. Gumbiner”), Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and a director of each of Parent and HFI.
This Transaction Statement relates to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 4, 2013 by and among the Company, Parent, and Merger Sub, as amended by that certain Amendment to Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 11, 2013 (as it may be further amended from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”). If the conditions to the closing (the “Closing”) of the Merger Agreement are either satisfied or, to the extent permitted, waived, Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”) at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), at which time the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease, and the Company will continue as the surviving company in the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”) and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. At the Effective Time, each share of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares held by Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or any wholly owned subsidiary of the Company or held in the Company’s treasury (such shares, “Excluded Shares”) and shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time held by any stockholder who has neither voted in favor of the Merger nor consented thereto in writing and who has demanded properly in writing appraisal for such shares or otherwise properly perfected and not withdrawn or lost his or her rights of appraisal under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (such shares, “Dissenting Shares”) will be converted into the right to receive $10.00 in cash, without interest (the “Merger Consideration”), and all such shares will be automatically cancelled and will cease to exist, and the holders of such shares will cease to have any rights with respect thereto other than the right to receive the Merger Consideration. Following the Closing, Common Stock will no longer be publicly traded, and current stockholders (other than Parent and its affiliates) will cease to have any ownership interest in the Company.
The board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) formed a special committee (the “Special Committee”), consisting of three independent directors of the Company, to evaluate the Merger and other alternatives available to the Company. The Special Committee unanimously determined that the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the Merger, are advisable and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders (other than the persons and entities associated with Mr. Gumbiner), and unanimously recommended that the Board approve and declare advisable the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger, and that the Company’s stockholders vote for the adoption of the Merger Agreement. Based in part on that recommendation, the Board (other than Mr. Gumbiner, who did not participate due to his interest in the Merger) unanimously (i) determined that the
transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the Merger, are advisable and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders (other than the persons and entities associated with Mr. Gumbiner), (ii) approved and declared advisable the execution, delivery and performance of the Merger Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger, and (iii) resolved to recommend that the Company’s stockholders vote for the adoption of the Merger Agreement. The closing of the Merger is subject to a non-waivable condition that the Merger Agreement be adopted by (i) the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote on the adoption of the Merger Agreement, voting together as a single class, and (ii) the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, voting together as a single class, excluding all shares of Common Stock owned by Parent, Merger Sub, Mr. Gumbiner or any of their respective affiliates (other than the Company and its subsidiaries), or by any director, officer or other employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
Concurrently with the filing of this Transaction Statement, the Company is filing with the SEC a definitive proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) under Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act, pursuant to which the Board is soliciting proxies from stockholders of the Company in connection with the Merger. The Proxy Statement is attached hereto as Exhibit (a)(1). A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached to the Proxy Statement as Annex A and is incorporated herein by reference.
