ITEM 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

On July 1, 2016, KBR, Inc. (the “Company”) completed its acquisition of Wyle Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Wyle”), in accordance with the terms of the previously announced Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated May 18, 2016, by and among Wyle, KBR Holdings, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“KBR Holdings”), Road Runner Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of KBR Holdings (“Merger Sub”), and CSC Shareholder Services LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub was merged with and into Wyle, with Wyle continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of KBR Holdings (the “Merger”).

At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each share of outstanding common stock of Wyle was converted into the right to receive $1.76 in cash, and each outstanding option to purchase Wyle common stock which was vested at the Effective Time (or that vested as a result of the consummation of the Merger) was cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash per share subject to such option equal to the excess, if any, of $1.76 over the applicable per share exercise price of such option. Options with an exercise price per share greater than $1.76 were cancelled without any cash payment.

As previously reported, the aggregate consideration to be paid in the Merger is $600 million, which amount includes payment of Wyle’s outstanding credit agreement and other transaction expenses, and is subject to both pre- and post-closing adjustments for certain tax benefits, working capital and other customary purchase price adjustments. The Company funded the payments under the Merger Agreement from available cash on-hand and from proceeds from its Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of September 25, 2015 (the “Credit Agreement”).

The foregoing summary does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Merger Agreement, which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 23, 2016 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

ITEM 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant

In connection with the completion of the Merger disclosed in Item 2.01 above, on July 1, 2016 the Company received a $400M advance (the “Advance”) under its Credit Agreement. The Advance bears interest at 1.841555% per annum for the first month and will reset each month thereafter to the one-month LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin of 1.375% to 1.75% until paid. Interest payments on the Advance are due monthly.

As previously disclosed, the Credit Agreement contains customary covenants, including financial covenants requiring maintenance of a ratio of consolidated debt to consolidated EBITDA of 3.5 to 1 and a minimum consolidated net worth of $1.2 billion plus 50% of consolidated net income and 100% of any increase in shareholders equity attributable to the sale of equity securities. The net worth covenant excludes the effects of changes in foreign currency translation adjustments from Shareholders’ Equity (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for periods after January 1, 2015.

The Credit Agreement contains customary events of default, including (subject to certain materiality thresholds and grace periods) payment default, failure to comply with covenants, material inaccuracy of representation or warranty, bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, change of control, certain material ERISA events and cross event of default and cross-acceleration in respect of other material debt.


The foregoing description of the Credit Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Credit Agreement in the form filed by the Company as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Current Report on From 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 1, 2015 and is incorporated herein by reference.
