Item 1.01. | Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement |
On March 7, 2012, Heckmann Corporation (the Company) entered into a definitive stock purchase agreement (the Purchase Agreement) by and among the Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company as Buyer, Green Fuel Services, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company as Seller, and TFI Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (TFI), which, through its wholly-owned operating subsidiary, Thermo Fluids Inc. (Thermo Fluids), provides route-based environmental services and waste recycling solutions. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Companys wholly-owned subsidiary will purchase 100% of the outstanding equity interests of TFI.
Thermo Fluids is an environmental services company and producer of commercial fuel oil from recovered used motor oil that is sold as an alternative energy source to a variety of industrial customers. Headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona, Thermo Fluids has 31 facilities serving the Western United States.
The purchase price for 100% of the equity interests in TFI is $245.0 million, subject to various adjustments, which is payable $227.5 million in cash and $17.5 million in unregistered shares of the Companys common stock. The shares of common stock are to be held in escrow for approximately one year from the anticipated closing date. The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants, indemnity provisions and closing conditions for transactions of similar nature and size. The Company anticipates that it will close these transactions early in the second quarter. In the event that the closing is delayed beyond April 15, 2012, the Company has agreed to pay a delay fee as set forth in the Purchase Agreement.
