Item 1.01.                                        Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On August 5, 2013, Trynex International LLC, formerly known as Acquisition Tango LLC (“New Trynex”), entered into a First Amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”), dated May 6, 2013, with Apex International, Inc., formerly known as Trynex, Inc. (the “Seller”), and shareholders of the Seller named in the Agreement (the “Shareholders”).  New Trynex, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Douglas Dynamics, Inc. (the “Company”), acquired substantially all of the assets of the Seller pursuant to the Agreement on May 6, 2013.  As previously disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 6, 2013, the Agreement included potential earnout payments of up to $7,000,000 in the aggregate, contingent on the revenue growth and financial performance of the acquired business for fiscal years 2014-2016.  The earnout was subject to partial or complete forfeiture if the employment of one or both of the Shareholders ended under specified circumstances.  The Amendment limited the circumstances under which a termination of employment would cause forfeiture.  The earnout remains contingent on the revenue growth and financial performance of the acquired business for fiscal years 2014-2016.

 

The foregoing description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
