Item 1.01          Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On December 13, 2021, Terminix Global Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Terminix” or the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Rentokil Initial plc, a public limited company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales (“Rentokil” or “Parent”), Rentokil Initial US Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Bidco”), Leto Holdings I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Bidco (“Merger Sub I”) and Leto Holdings II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Bidco (“Merger Sub II”).

 

The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, that subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth therein, (1) Merger Sub I will merge with and into the Company (the “First Merger”), with the Company surviving the First Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Bidco, and (2) immediately following the effective time of the First Merger (the “Effective Time”), the Company, as the surviving corporation in the First Merger, will merge with and into Merger Sub II (the “Second Merger” and, together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”), with Merger Sub II surviving the Second Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Bidco and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.

 

Merger Consideration

 

Under the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (“Company Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than certain excluded shares as described in the Merger Agreement) will be converted into the right to receive either:

 

·a number of American depositary shares of Parent (“Parent ADSs”) (each representing a beneficial interest in five (5) ordinary shares of Parent (“Parent Ordinary Shares”)) equal to (A) 1.0619 (the “Exchange Ratio”) plus (B) the quotient of $11.00 (the “Per Share Cash Amount”) and the volume weighted average price (measured in U.S. dollars) of Parent ADSs (measured using the volume weighted average price of Parent Ordinary Shares as a proxy) for the trading day that is two trading days prior to the Effective Time (or such other date as may be mutually agreed to by Parent and the Company) (such price, the “Parent ADS Price,” and such number of Parent ADSs, the “Stock Consideration”); or

 

·an amount in cash, without interest, and in USD equal to the sum of (A) the Per Share Cash Amount plus (B) the product of the Exchange Ratio and the Parent ADS Price (the “Cash Consideration,” and together with the “Stock Consideration,” the “Merger Consideration”),

 

in each case at the election of the holder of such share of Company Common Stock, subject to certain allocation and proration provisions of the Merger Agreement, and, immediately following such conversion, will be automatically cancelled and cease to exist. The aggregate Cash Consideration and the aggregate Stock Consideration that will be issued in the Mergers will not vary as a result of individual election preferences.

 

Conditions to the Mergers

 

The respective obligations of the Company and Parent to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of a number of customary conditions, including:  (1) the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the Company’s stockholders; (2) approval of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and other related matters by Parent’s shareholders; (3) the absence of any law or order prohibiting consummation of the Mergers; (4) Parent’s registration statement on Form F-4 having been declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission; (5) Parent’s shareholder circular and prospectus having been approved by the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority; (6) the Parent ADSs issuable in the Mergers (and the Parent Ordinary Shares represented thereby) having been approved for listing on the New York Stock Exchange; (7) the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended; (8) accuracy of the other party’s representations and warranties, subject to certain materiality standards set forth in the Merger Agreement; and (9) compliance by the other party in all material respects with such other party’s obligations under the Merger Agreement. In addition, the obligation of Parent to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement is subject to completion by the Company of the sale or disposition of certain of its existing businesses (the “Required Sales”).

 

 C: 

 

 

Representations and Warranties; Covenants

 

The Merger Agreement contains customary representations and warranties given by the Company, Parent, Bidco, Merger Sub I and Merger Sub II.  The Merger Agreement also contains customary pre-closing covenants, including covenants by each of the parties relating to conduct of their respective business prior to the closing of the Mergers.  The parties have agreed to use their respective reasonable best efforts to complete the Mergers as promptly as reasonably practicable, including in obtaining each third party consent or regulatory approval necessary, proper or advisable to complete the Mergers. In addition, the parties have agreed to take all actions necessary, proper, or advisable to eliminate any impediment under any antitrust law, including (1) proposing, negotiating, committing to, or effecting any divestiture, (2) creating, terminating, unwinding, divesting or assigning, subcontracting or otherwise securing substitute parties for relationships, ventures, and contractual or commercial rights or obligations of the Company, Parent, and their respective subsidiaries, and (3) otherwise taking any such other remedial action, in each case to permit the closing of the Mergers to occur as promptly as reasonably practicable; except that Parent and its subsidiaries are not required to divest (x) any businesses, assets, properties or product lines of any of the Company, Parent or any of their respective subsidiaries that, in the aggregate, generated total revenues in excess of 12.8% of the Company’s total revenues in the calendar year 2020 (except that any revenues associated with the businesses of the Company to be divested in connection with the Required Sales shall be excluded from that calculation) or (y) any rights to use or under the Company’s intellectual property rights related to the Terminix name or logo (except for any rights to use the Terminix name or logo under any transitional license or transitional services agreement entered into in connection with any permitted divestiture of the Company’s assets in accordance with the foregoing).  The Merger Agreement also provides that, during the period from the date of the Merger Agreement until the earlier of the Effective Time and the termination of the Merger Agreement, each of the Company and Parent is subject to certain restrictions on its ability to solicit alternative acquisition proposals from third parties, to provide information to third parties and to engage in discussions with third parties regarding alternative acquisition proposals, subject to customary exceptions.

 

At the closing of the Mergers, one member of the Company’s board of directors (to be mutually agreed by the Company and Parent prior to the closing of Mergers) will be appointed to Parent’s board of directors.

 

Treatment of Equity Awards

 

Under the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time:

 

·each outstanding Company equity award that is then vested will be converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the Cash Consideration (for Company stock options, less the applicable exercise price) and paid out at closing;

 

·each outstanding Company equity award that is not then vested will be assumed by Parent and converted into a number of equity awards covering Parent ADSs, and (a) which (i) for Company stock options and Company time-vesting restricted stock units, each such award will be converted into a number of options and time-vesting restricted stock units, respectively, covering Parent ADSs using an exchange ratio determined based on the value of the Merger Consideration at the closing, and (ii) for Company performance-based restricted stock units (“Company PSUs”), each such award will be converted into a number of restricted stock units subject to time-vesting only (for awards granted prior to the date of the Merger Agreement) covering Parent ADSs using an exchange ratio determined based on the value of the Merger Consideration at the closing, applied to the number of shares of Company Common Stock determined by the Company board of directors immediately prior to the closing based on the greater of the actual level of performance metric achievement applicable to the Company PSUs or target performance achievement (except that PSUs granted in 2022 will continue to vest based on achievement of applicable performance metrics); and (b) otherwise will continue to vest and be settled on the same terms and conditions as applicable to the Company awards prior to the closing (except that, consistent with the Company equity plan, such unvested converted awards will fully vest upon a qualifying termination occurring after the closing); and

 

·each outstanding Company director deferred share equivalent (“Company DSE”) will be converted into an amount in cash equal to the Cash Consideration, and otherwise will be paid on the same terms and conditions as applicable under the Company DSE award agreement.

 

 C: 

 

 

Termination and Termination Fees

 

Either the Company or Parent may terminate the Merger Agreement in certain circumstances, including if (1) the Mergers are not completed by September 13, 2022, subject to two additional three month extensions by the Company or Parent in certain circumstances in the event that any required regulatory approval has not been obtained (the “End Date”), (2) the Company’s stockholders fail to adopt the Merger Agreement, (3) Parent’s shareholders fail to approve the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and other related matters, (4) a governmental authority of competent jurisdiction has issued a final non-appealable governmental order prohibiting the Mergers, (5) the other party breaches its representations, warranties or covenants in the Merger Agreement in a way that would entitle the party seeking to terminate the Merger Agreement not to consummate the Mergers, subject to the right of the breaching party to cure the breach, or (6) the other party’s board of directors has changed its recommendation in favor of the Mergers.  In addition, subject to compliance with specified process and notice requirements, the Company may terminate the Merger Agreement in order to enter into a definitive agreement providing for a Company Superior Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement).

 

The Company will be required to make a payment to Parent equal to $200 million if the Merger Agreement is terminated in certain circumstances, including because (1) Parent has terminated the Merger Agreement due to the fact that the Company’s board of directors has changed its recommendation in favor of the Mergers, (2) the Company has terminated the Merger Agreement in order to enter into an agreement providing for a Company Superior Proposal or (3) the Company has entered into an agreement providing for a Company Superior Proposal within twelve months following the termination of the Merger Agreement in certain circumstances. The Company will also be required to make a payment to Parent equal to $50 million if the Merger Agreement is terminated because the Company’s stockholders fail to adopt the Merger Agreement. 

 

Parent will be required to make a payment to the Company equal to $150 million if the Merger Agreement is terminated in certain circumstances, including because (1) the Company has terminated the Merger Agreement due to the fact that Parent’s board of directors has changed its recommendation in favor of the Mergers, (2) Parent has entered into an agreement providing for a Parent Superior Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement) within twelve months following the termination of the Merger Agreement in certain circumstances or (3) a governmental authority of competent jurisdiction has entered a final non-appealable governmental order relating to antitrust laws prohibiting the Mergers or the parties have failed to obtain required regulatory approvals before the End Date under certain circumstances. Parent will also be required to make a payment to the Company equal to $50 million if the Merger Agreement is terminated because Parent’s stockholders fail to approve the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and other related matters.

 

Additional Information

 

The foregoing description of the Mergers and the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and is incorporated herein by reference.  A copy of the Merger Agreement has been included to provide investors with information regarding its terms and is not intended to provide any factual information about the Company or Parent.

 

The Merger Agreement contains representations, warranties, covenants and agreements, which were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specified dates.  The representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement reflect negotiations between the parties to the Merger Agreement and are not intended as statements of fact to be relied upon by the Company’s stockholders or Parent’s shareholders.  In particular, the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in the Merger Agreement may be subject to limitations agreed by the parties, including having been modified or qualified by certain confidential disclosures that were made between the parties in connection with the negotiation of the Merger Agreement, and having been made for purposes of allocating risk among the parties rather than establishing matters of fact.  In addition, the parties may apply standards of materiality in a way that is different from what may be viewed as material by investors.  As such, the representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement may not describe the actual state of affairs at the date they were made or at any other time and you should not rely on them as statements of fact.  Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Merger Agreement, and unless required by applicable law, the Company undertakes no obligation to update such information.
