On January 4, 2017, U.S. Concrete, Inc. (the “Company”) and certain subsidiary guarantors (the “Guarantors”) entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as initial purchaser (the “Initial Purchaser”), in connection with the Company’s offering of additional senior notes. The Purchase Agreement provides for, among other things, the sale by the Company of $200.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its 6.375% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “Notes”) issued as additional securities pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of June 7, 2016 (the “Base Indenture”), among the Company, certain subsidiary guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by Supplemental Indenture No. 1, dated as of October 12, 2016, among the Company, certain subsidiary guarantors party thereto, and the Trustee, and as further supplemented by Supplemental Indenture No. 2, to be entered into among among the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee. On June 7, 2016, the Company previously issued $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 6.375% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “Existing 6.375% Notes”). The terms of the Notes will be identical to the terms of the Existing 6.375% Notes, other than the issue date, the issue price, the first interest payment date and the provisions relating to transfer restrictions and registration rights.

The Notes were offered to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and to certain non-U.S. persons in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act (the “Note Offering”). The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the parties and indemnification and contribution provisions whereby the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchaser, on the other, have agreed to indemnify each other against certain liabilities. Under the Purchase Agreement, the Company also agreed to a 90-day lock-up period with respect to offering, selling, contracting to sell or otherwise disposing of any debt securities issued or guaranteed by the Company or any of the Guarantors and having a tenor of more than one year. In addition, the Purchase Agreement contemplates the execution by the Company and the Guarantors of a registration rights agreement relating to the Notes. The Note Offering is scheduled to close on January 9, 2017, subject to customary closing conditions.
