INTRODUCTORY NOTE.

 

As previously disclosed, on November 15, 2020, HD Supply Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with The Home Depot, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and Coronado Acquisition Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which Merger Sub would merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”) with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”).

 

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, on November 24, 2020, Merger Sub commenced a tender offer (the “Offer”) to purchase all of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Shares”), at a price of $56.00 per Share (the “Offer Price”), net to the seller in cash, without interest and subject to any required withholding of taxes. The Offer and withdrawal rights in connection therewith expired at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, at the end of the day on December 23, 2020 (the “Expiration Time”). The depositary agent for the Offer has advised that, as of the Expiration Time, a total of 127,928,897 Shares had been validly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer, representing approximately 82.9% of the outstanding Shares. The number of Shares validly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer satisfied the condition to the Offer that there be validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to the expiration thereof a number of Shares that, together with all other Shares (if any) beneficially owned by Parent and its affiliates, represent a majority of the Shares outstanding at the expiration of the Offer (determined on a fully diluted basis (which assumes conversion or exercise of all derivative securities regardless of the conversion or exercise price, the vesting schedule or other terms and conditions thereof)). All conditions to the Offer having been satisfied or waived, on December 24, 2020 Merger Sub accepted for payment all Shares validly tendered into and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer.

 

Following consummation of the Offer and confirmation that all conditions to the Merger set forth in the Merger Agreement were satisfied, on December 24, 2020, Parent completed its acquisition of the Company by consummating the Merger without a meeting of stockholders of the Company in accordance with the Merger Agreement and Section 251(h) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time (the “Effective Time”) of the Merger, each Share that was issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Shares owned by the Parent, Merger Sub or the Company, or by any of their respective direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, and Shares held by stockholders of the Company who were entitled to demand and who had properly and validly demanded their statutory rights of appraisal and had neither withdrawn nor lost such rights prior to the Effective Time) was converted into the right to receive the Offer Price, net to the holder thereof, without interest thereon. As a result, at the Effective Time, a change in control of the Company, and its indirect wholly owned subsidiary, HD Supply, Inc. (“HD Supply, Inc.”) occurred, and the Company and HD Supply, Inc. became wholly owned subsidiaries of Parent.

 

The foregoing description of the Offer, the Merger and the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on November 16, 2020 and is incorporated herein by reference.
