Item 1. Changes in Control of Registrant.
On September 26, 1997, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger
(the "Merger Agreement") by and among The Krystal Company (the "Company"),
Port Royal Holdings, Inc. ("Port Royal") and TKC Acquisition Corp.
("Merger Sub") dated July 3, 1997, the Merger Sub was merged with and into
the Company with the Company as the surviving corporation (the "Merger"). As
a result of the Merger, each share of the Company's issued and outstanding
stock prior to the Merger was converted into the right to receive $14.50 in
cash, or $108,403,276 in the aggregate, and the Company became a 100%
wholly-owned subsidiary of Port Royal. Prior to the Merger, the Company's
largest shareholder was R.B. Davenport III, who was the beneficial owner of
49.9% of the Company's issued and outstanding shares of common stock.
On July 3, 1997, Port Royal entered into a Stock Option Agreement with
certain of the Company's shareholders ("Supporting Shareholders"), representing
approximately 53% of the then outstanding common stock, pursuant to which,
among other things, the Supporting Shareholders agreed to vote in favor of the
consummation of the Merger.
The sources of funds for the Merger were derived from the private
placement of Port Royal common stock for a total consideration of $35 million,
the sale of the Company's 10.25% senior notes due 2007 for a total
consideration of $100 million, and bank borrowings under a revolving credit
facility of $25 million with SunTrust Bank, Atlanta, NA as agent.
