Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
On April 14, 2008, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 5, 2008, by and among Analogic Corporation (“Analogic”), Canton Merger Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Analogic (“Merger Sub”), Copley Controls Corporation (“Copley”), the Principal Shareholders of Copley named therein, the Additional Shareholders of Copley named therein, and Matthew Lorber, as the Securityholders’ Representative (the “Merger Agreement”), Merger Sub merged with and into Copley, with Copley continuing as the surviving corporation and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Analogic (the “Merger”).
The consideration paid by Analogic on April 14, 2008 was $76.875 million in cash, which represented the agreed purchase price of $68.75 million plus an adjustment of $8.125 million. The adjustment resulted from Copley’s estimated working capital as of the closing date, which included $5.0 million of cash, exceeding the working capital of $16.2 million as required under the terms of the Merger Agreement. The actual indebtedness (which was estimated to be zero) and working capital of Copley as of the closing date will be determined finally after the closing to determine if a further adjustment to the total consideration is required.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Analogic deposited $8.75 million of the total consideration into an escrow fund to secure certain indemnification obligations of the former securityholders of Copley. On July 14, 2009, the remaining balance of the $8.75 million escrow fund in excess of any amounts held for unresolved claims will be distributed to the former securityholders of Copley. In addition, Analogic deposited (i) $1.0 million of the total consideration into an escrow fund to provide for any payment to Analogic if a further adjustment is required based on Copley’s actual indebtedness and working capital as of the closing date and (ii) an additional $1.0 million of the total consideration into an escrow fund to provide for the expenses of the Securityholders’ Representative.
Analogic and the former shareholders of Copley have elected to treat the merger as an asset purchase for tax purposes under Section 338(h)(10) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. As a result, Analogic will make a payment to the former shareholders of Copley of up to an additional $1.8 million in the aggregate as reimbursement for the adverse tax impact of the election on the former shareholders.
Analogic estimates that, subject to the final determination of Copley’s actual indebtedness and working capital as of the closing date, the total consideration to be paid, including the full reimbursement for the adverse tax impact of the election on Copley’s former shareholders, will be approximately $78.675 million.
The foregoing summary of the Merger Agreement 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 Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Analogic on March 6, 2008 and is incorporated herein by reference.
A copy of the press release announcing the completion of the Merger is filed with this report as Exhibit 99.1.
