Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On August 23, 2010, Coinstar, Inc. (“Coinstar”) entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) by and among Coinstar, Coinstar E-Payment Services Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Coinstar (“CEPSI”), CUHL Holdings, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Coinstar (“CUHL” and, together with Coinstar, the “Sellers”), Coinstar UK Holdings Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of CUHL (“UK Holdings” and, together with CEPSI, the “Companies”), and Sigue Corporation (“Buyer”), to sell the Companies which comprise Coinstar’s money transfer business (the “Money Transfer Business”).

Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Coinstar would sell 100% of the outstanding shares of capital stock of CEPSI and CUHL would sell 100% of the issued share capital of UK Holdings to Buyer, in exchange for approximately $18 million in cash (“Cash Payment”) and a loan from Coinstar to Buyer (the “Seller Financing”). The Seller Financing will be in the principal amount of $23.5 million, plus or minus, as applicable, the amount by which the closing net working capital of the Companies exceeds or falls below $9 million (such adjustment, the “Net Working Capital Adjustment”). The Cash Payment and the portion of the Seller Financing equal to $23.5 million, plus or minus, as applicable, the Net Working Capital Adjustment, will constitute the “Purchase Price.”

In addition to the Purchase Price, Buyer will pay Coinstar an amount equal to the amount outstanding at closing under the revolving credit arrangement between Coinstar and the Companies under which Coinstar has provided funding to the Companies (the “Swingline”). If the amount outstanding under the Swingline at closing (the “Swingline Closing Balance”) is $14 million or less, Buyer will pay such amount to Coinstar in cash at closing. If the Swingline Closing Balance is more than $14 million, Buyer will pay Coinstar $14 million in cash at closing and the amount of the Swingline Closing Balance exceeding $14 million will be added to the Seller Financing.

Interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Seller Financing will accrue at 8% per annum. Payments by Buyer to Coinstar of accrued interest along with installments of $500,000 will be due on the first day of each calendar quarter, plus a final payment of interest and all unpaid principal on the date 30 months following closing. The Seller Financing is guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of Buyer and will be secured by a first priority security interest in the equity of CEPSI and UK Holdings, as well as certain assets of certain subsidiaries of Buyer. The documents evidencing the Seller Financing will contain customary representations, warranties, as well as affirmative and negative covenants.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties. The Purchase Agreement also contains customary covenants and agreements, including covenants and agreements regarding the parties’ efforts to cause the closing to be completed and indemnification.

Coinstar anticipates completing the sale of the Money Transfer Business contemplated by the Purchase Agreement (the “Transaction”) in 2011. The consummation of the Transaction is subject to various customary conditions, which may be waived by the applicable parties, including conditions to closing that:

 

   

Buyer, subject to various exceptions, will have received evidence that (i) all licenses, permits, consents, approvals, authorizations, qualifications and orders of governmental entities as required by both U.S. and foreign laws in connection with the Transaction have been obtained, and (ii) all notices to governmental entities as required by both U.S. and foreign laws in connection with the Transaction have been given.

Coinstar will, by September 30, 2010, have received evidence of a binding commitment letter from Buyer’s senior lender (the “Commitment Letter”) committing such lender to provide, in whole or part, a revolving credit facility for Buyer in an amount sufficient to permit Buyer to, together with Buyer’s cash balances and the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement, make all payments required to be made to Coinstar in connection with closing under this Agreement (the “New Facility”), and (ii) in the event that the Commitment Letter does not commit the senior lender to provide 100% of the New Facility, on or before October 31, 2010 Buyer shall have delivered to Coinstar a binding commitment letter or letters from one or more additional lenders committing any such lender to provide the remaining portion of the New Facility that the senior lender has not committed to fund.

 

   

Coinstar will have entered into a credit agreement, promissory note, guarantee and collateral agreement and other ancillary documents with Buyer that will set forth the terms of the Seller Financing.

 

   

Coinstar will have entered into a transition services agreement with Buyer under which Sellers will provide Buyer certain post-closing services for various terms in exchange for fees covering Sellers’ costs for providing the services.

Further, if the Purchase Agreement is terminated under certain specified circumstances, the Buyer may be required to pay Sellers an amount in cash equal to 5% of the Purchase Price.

This description of the Purchase Agreement and the sale of the Money Transfer Business is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future events, results, performance or conditions, and these may vary materially from those expressed or implied in those statements.
