Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement |
On April 6, 2007, ManTech entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (Merger Agreement) with SRS Technologies (SRS), certain shareholders of SRS, Quicksilver Acquisition Corp., a newly formed and wholly owned subsidiary of ours (Merger Sub), and certain persons acting as a representative for the shareholders of SRS (Shareholder Representative). The Merger Agreement provides for the merger of Merger Sub with and into SRS, with SRS continuing as the surviving corporation and our wholly owned subsidiary (the Merger).
On April 9, 2007, we issued a press release announcing that we had entered into the Merger Agreement. The press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
Description of Material Terms of Merger Agreement
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, we will acquire all of the outstanding equity interests in SRS (a privately-held company) for a purchase price of $195 million in cash (the Purchase Price). A portion of the Purchase Price will be used to pay for certain transaction costs incurred by SRS in connection with the Merger. The Purchase Price is subject to adjustment based on the calculation of SRS working capital on the closing date.
Approximately $36 million of the Purchase Price will be placed into escrow to satisfy potential indemnification obligations of the Company and its shareholders, and to satisfy potential expenses of the Shareholder Representative. The escrow term will be for a period of 3 years, subject to potential distributions of portions of the escrowed amount after the end of the first and second year.
SRS has made customary representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement. Additionally, SRS has agreed to certain customary covenants and agreements, including (among others) that
| The Board of SRS will call a special meeting of the SRS shareholders to consider the Merger Agreement and the Merger, and will recommend that the SRS shareholders adopt the Merger Agreement and approve of the Merger; and |
| SRS will not solicit, encourage or initiate the submission of proposals relating to alternate business combination transactions, and will not participate in any discussions pertaining thereto. |
Consummation of the Merger is subject to customary closing conditions, including (among others)
| Expiration of the applicable Hart-Scott-Rodino waiting period; |
| The absence of any injunction or order prohibiting the closing; |
| The accuracy of representations and warranties (subject to an overall material adverse effect qualification); |
| The compliance with all agreements, covenants and obligations contained in the Merger Agreement (subject to a materiality qualification for compliance with certain select covenants); and |
| The absence of a material adverse change to SRSs business or financial condition. |
The Merger Agreement contains customary termination provisions. In the event the Merger Agreement is terminated, the parties generally shall be responsible for their respective costs and expenses. However, if the termination of the Merger Agreement is the result of an intentional breach (a willful and knowing breach), then the party who has committed the intentional breach will remain liable for (and the non-breaching party shall be entitled to recover) damages, losses costs and expenses incurred or suffered by the non-breaching party.
The Board of Directors of each of ManTech and SRS has unanimously approved the Merger. Concurrently with entering into the Merger Agreement, certain shareholders of SRS (who collectively own over 85% of SRS stock) entered into voting agreements with ManTech pursuant to which they agreed to vote their shares of SRS for the adoption and approval of the Merger Agreement, and against any alternate transaction.
We expect the Merger to close in the second quarter of 2007.
