Stock Repurchase Agreement
THIS STOCK REPURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of March 14, 2011 (the “Effective Date”), by and between White River Capital, Inc., an Indiana corporation (the “Company”), and the parties listed on Exhibit A attached hereto (each a “Seller,” and collectively the “Sellers”).
RECITALS
WHEREAS, each of the Sellers is the beneficial holder of the number of shares of common stock, without par value (“Common Stock”), of the Company (the “Shares”) as set forth on Exhibit A; and
WHEREAS, the Company desires to purchase the Shares from each of the Sellers and each of the Sellers desires to sell the Shares to the Company.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual agreements set forth herein, the Company and each of the Sellers hereby agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
PURCHASE AND SALE OF SHARES; CONSIDERATION
Section 1.1 Purchase and Sale of Shares. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, on the Closing Date each of the Sellers shall sell, transfer, assign, convey, and deliver to the Company, and the Company shall purchase from each of the Sellers, the Shares, free and clear of all Encumbrances. For purposes of this Agreement, “Encumbrances” shall mean all liens, claims, charges, assessments, options, security interests, proxies, agreements to vote, and other legal and equitable encumbrances.
Section 1.2 Consideration. In consideration for the Shares, the Company shall pay to each of the Sellers $18.50 per Share, resulting in the purchase price for each Seller as set forth on Exhibit A (each such purchase price, a “Repurchase Price”). Upon each of the Seller’s receipt of their respective Repurchase Price, each of the Sellers irrevocably appoints any officer, employee, or agent of the Company as the Seller’s attorney-in-fact to record the transfer of the Shares on the books and records of the Company with full power of substitution.
ARTICLE II
CLOSING
Section 2.1 Closing Date. The purchase and sale of the Shares (the “Closing”) shall be consummated by virtue of the deliveries specified in Section 2.2 below as promptly as practicable on or after the Effective Date at such location or locations as the Company and each of the Sellers may agree. The time and date on which the Closing is actually held is referred to herein as the “Closing Date.”
Section 2.2 Delivery of Shares and Consideration. At the Closing, each of the Sellers shall take all necessary actions and make all necessary arrangements to transfer the Shares to the Company directly, or to or through a designated agent of the Company, so that the transfer of the Shares to the Company is properly reflected on the books and records of the Company. At the Closing, the Company shall pay to each of the Sellers the respective Repurchase Price opposite each Seller’s name as set forth on Exhibit A by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the respective account designated by each Seller to the Comapny.
