Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

 

On March 27, 2023, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 26, 2022 (as amended, supplemented or modified from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), Regal Rexnord Corporation, a Wisconsin corporation (the “Company” or “Regal Rexnord”), completed its previously announced acquisition of Altra Industrial Motion Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Altra”). Pursuant to and subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, Aspen Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), merged with and into Altra (the “Merger”), with Altra surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

 

At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each share of Altra’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Altra Common Stock”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than (i) any shares held by either the Company, Altra or Merger Sub, (ii) shares owned by any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Altra or the Company, (iii) shares for which appraisal rights have been properly demanded according to Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law and (iv) restricted shares of Altra Common Stock granted under Altra’s 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan and subject to forfeiture conditions) was converted into the right to receive cash in the amount of $62.00 per share, without interest (the “Merger Consideration”). A total of approximately $4.1 billion in cash was paid to Altra stockholders as consideration for the Merger. The Company funded the Merger by using a combination of a portion of the net proceeds of the $4.6 billion debt offering (the “Offering”) effected by the Company on January 24, 2023, borrowings under the Credit Agreement and the Assumption Agreement (each as defined below) and cash on hand. JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., an affiliate of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, was an initial purchaser in the Offering and acts as administrative agent under the Credit Agreement and is a party to the Assumption Agreement (as defined below). Affiliates of certain of the other initial purchasers in the Offering also serve as agents and/or lenders under the Credit Agreement, and an affiliate of the Trustee (as defined below) also served as an initial purchaser. In addition, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC is acting as financial advisor to the Company in connection with the Merger.

 

In addition, (1) each vested Altra stock option outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was canceled and converted into a cash payment equal to the intrinsic value of such option based on the Merger Consideration, (2) each unvested Altra stock option outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into an award of stock options with respect to Company common stock with an intrinsic value equivalent to the intrinsic value of the Altra stock option based on the Merger Consideration, (3) each unvested Altra restricted stock unit outstanding, as of the Effective Time, that was subject solely to time-based vesting conditions was converted into an award of restricted stock units with respect to Company common stock with an equivalent value based on the Merger Consideration on substantially similar terms and conditions, (4) each unvested award of Altra restricted shares was converted into an award of restricted cash of equivalent value based on the Merger Consideration on substantially similar terms and conditions, (5) each unvested Altra restricted stock unit outstanding, as of the Effective Time, that was subject to performance-based vesting conditions was converted into an award of time-based restricted stock with an equivalent value based on the Merger Consideration on substantially similar terms and conditions (with performance goals being deemed satisfied at specified levels) and (6) each vested Altra restricted stock unit outstanding as of the Effective Time was converted into the right to receive a cash payment based on the Merger Consideration.

 

The description of the Merger in this Item 2.01 does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, dated as of October 26, 2022, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) as Exhibit 2.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated October 27, 2022, which is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

Item 8.01. Other Events.  

 

Closing of the First Amendment to the Credit Agreement and the Assumption Agreement

 

On March 27, 2023, the Company and Land Newco, Inc. closed the previously announced amendment, dated as of November 17, 2022, with certain of the Company’s lenders under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of March 28, 2022 (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”), among the Company, various subsidiaries of the Company from time to time party thereto, the financial institutions from time to time party thereto as lenders and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”).

 

In addition, on March 27, 2023, the Company and Land Newco, Inc., closed the previously announced incremental assumption agreement, dated as of November 30, 2022, with the Administrative Agent and the lenders party thereto (the “Assumption Agreement”).

 

Pursuant to the First Amendment, the Company incurred $600,000,000 of incremental term loans under the Credit Agreement to finance, in part, the payment of the Merger Consideration. Pursuant to the Assumption Agreement, the Company incurred $240,000,000 of incremental term loans under the Credit Agreement to finance, in part, the payment of the Merger Consideration.

 

These summaries of the First Amendment and Assumption Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the First Amendment which was filed with the SEC as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated November 17, 2022, and to the full text of the Assumption Agreement which was filed with the SEC as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated December 1, 2022, respectively, each of which is incorporated herein by reference.

Concurrently with the Effective Time, the Company repaid and discharged such indebtedness in accordance with the Payoff Letter.
