Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On January 12, 2019, NCI Building Systems, Inc. (“we”, “us”, the “Company” or “NCI”) entered into a Unit Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Environmental Materials, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Environmental Stoneworks”), the Members of Environmental Materials, LLC (the “Sellers”), and Charles P. Gallagher and Wayne C. Kocourek, solely in their capacity as the Seller Representative (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).
Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, at the closing of the transactions contemplated thereby (the “Closing”), NCI (or one or more of its subsidiaries) will purchase from the Sellers 100% of the outstanding limited liability company interests (the “LLC Interests”) of Environmental Stoneworks. As consideration to the Sellers, at the Closing, NCI will pay to the Sellers $186,000,000 in the aggregate in cash consideration, subject to certain adjustments (the “Aggregate Consideration”), with each Seller being entitled to receive itspro rata share of the Aggregate Consideration. Following the Closing, Environmental Stoneworks will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. NCI plans to finance the transaction through a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under its existing revolving credit facilities.
The Purchase Agreement contains various representations, warranties and covenants of the parties customary for transactions of this type, including covenants requiring each company to use reasonable best efforts to obtain antitrust clearance for the transaction. The Closing is subject to a number of customary conditions, including, among others, (1) the absence of any restraining order, preliminary or permanent injunction or other order preventing the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, (2) the termination or expiration of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, (3) subject to certain exceptions customary for transactions of this type, the accuracy of the representations and warranties with respect to the Company and Environmental Stoneworks and compliance in all material respects by each of the Company and Environmental Stoneworks with their respective obligations required to be performed by them under the Purchase Agreement on or prior to the Closing, and (4) the absence of any event or occurrence since October 31, 2018 that constitutes a material adverse effect on Environmental Stoneworks.
The Purchase Agreement contains provisions giving each of the Company and Environmental Stoneworks the right to terminate the Purchase Agreement under specified circumstances, including if the Closing is not consummated by April 15, 2019, subject to certain conditions.
A copy of the Purchase Agreement is attached as Exhibit 2.1 to this report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Purchase Agreement were made solely for purposes of the transactions contemplated thereby, as of specific dates and solely for the benefit of the parties to the Purchase Agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to security holders. Security holders should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company or Environmental Stoneworks. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Purchase Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Company’s public disclosures.
