Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

     On January 10, 2011, Robbins & Myers, Inc., an Ohio corporation (“Robbins & Myers”), completed its acquisition of T-3 Energy Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“T-3”), pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated October 6, 2010 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Robbins & Myers, T-3, Triple Merger I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Robbins & Myers (“Merger Sub”), and Triple Merger II, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Robbins & Myers (“Merger Sub II”). As provided in the Merger Agreement, on January 10, 2011, Merger Sub was merged with and into T-3, with T-3 continuing as the survivor and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Robbins & Myers (the “Merger”).

     The Merger Agreement and the Merger were unanimously approved by the Boards of Directors of both Robbins & Myers and T-3 and were approved by the shareholders of Robbins & Myers and the stockholders of T-3 at special meetings of each held on January 7, 2011.

     In the Merger, T-3 stockholders received 0.894 Common Shares of Robbins & Myers, without par value, plus $7.95 in cash, without interest, for each share of Common Stock of T-3, par value $0.001 per share, they owned. Based upon the $41.18 closing price of Robbins & Myers Common Shares on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) January 7, 2011, the consideration received by T-3 stockholders had a value of approximately $44.76 per share or $598,416,018 in the aggregate.

     Immediately following completion of the Merger, former T-3 stockholders owned approximately 27% of the outstanding Common Shares of Robbins & Myers.

     No fractional shares were issued in the Merger. T-3 stockholders who would otherwise have received a fraction of a Common Share of Robbins & Myers in the Merger received an amount in cash equal to the value of such fractional share, based upon the $41.18 closing price of Robbins & Myers Common Shares on the NYSE on January 7, 2011.

     Also as provided in the Merger Agreement, each outstanding option to purchase shares of T-3 Common Stock was converted into a fully vested and exercisable option to acquire Common Shares of Robbins & Myers, with the number of shares subject to such option being determined by multiplying the number of shares subject to the T-3 stock option by 1.192 and rounding down to the nearest whole share and the exercise price per share being determined by dividing the per share exercise price under the T-3 option by 1.192 and rounding up to the nearest whole cent.

     The transaction expenses of Robbins & Myers relating to the Merger, including the cash portion of the merger consideration, were funded with available cash of Robbins & Myers.

     The foregoing description of the Merger and the transactions contemplated thereby is not complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, which is included as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.

     The Merger Agreement has been included to provide with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about Robbins & Myers or T-3. The representations, warranties, and covenants contained in the Merger Agreement were made solely for purposes of the agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Merger Agreement, may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the Merger Agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to security holders. Security holders are not third-party beneficiaries under the Merger Agreement and should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of Robbins & Myers or T-3. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may have changed after the date of the Merger Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in Robbins & Myers or T-3’s public disclosures.

Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

     On January 7, 2011, Robbins & Myers held a special meeting of it shareholders for the purpose of voting on a proposal to approve the issuance of Robbins & Myers Common Shares in connection with the Merger and to approve the Merger and other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, as it may be amended from time to time.

As of the record date, there were 32,985,562 outstanding Common Shares of Robbins & Myers.
