On August 15, 2013, XPO Logistics, Inc. (the “Company”) completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding capital stock of 3PD Holding, Inc. (“3PD”), pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement, dated July 12, 2013, as amended (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”), by and among the Company, 3PD, Logistics Holding Company Limited, Mr. Karl Meyer, Karl Frederick Meyer 2008 Irrevocable Trust II, Mr. Randall Meyer, Mr. Daron Pair and Mr. James J. Martell (the “Transaction”). 3PD is the largest non-asset, third party provider of heavy goods, last-mile logistics in North America.

The total consideration paid pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement was approximately $365 million, paid in cash (including deferred payments and an escrow) and 407,479 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock, and was adjusted for 3PD’s cash on hand, estimated net working capital at closing and other items. Substantially all indebtedness for borrowed money of 3PD was paid in full by the Company as part of the consideration paid at the closing of the Transaction. The Company used cash on hand for the Transaction’s cash requirements, including the net proceeds of its recent and previously reported underwritten public offering of 9,694,027 shares of common stock.

Mr. Martell is a member of the board of directors of the Company and also is an investor in, and member of the board of directors of, 3PD. Mr. Martell recused himself from, and did not participate in, deliberations of the Company’s board of directors with respect to the Transaction. Other than his interest in the purchase price paid pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, Mr. Martell did not receive compensation in connection with the Transaction. On July 12, 2013, Mr. Martell entered into a subscription agreement with the Company pursuant to which, on August 15, 2013, he invested $741,708 of the after-tax proceeds he received in the Transaction in restricted shares of the Company’s common stock. The subscription agreement is described further below in Item 3.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K.

The terms and conditions of the Transaction were previously reported in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 15, 2013 (the “Original Form 8-K”). An Amendment No. 1 to the Stock Purchase Agreement was entered into as of August 14, 2013, although it is not material to the Company. The foregoing description of the Stock Purchase Agreement, as amended, is not complete and is qualified in its entirety be reference to the Stock Purchase Agreement, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Original Form 8-K, and incorporated herein by reference, and Amendment No. 1 to Stock Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 2.1, and incorporated herein by reference.

As previously reported in the Original Form 8-K, the Company entered into subscription agreements, on July 12, 2013, in connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement, with certain equity holders of 3PD representing an aggregate of 407,479 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock, which subscription agreements were closed on August 15, 2013, the closing date of the Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Subscription Agreements”). The restricted shares of the Company’s common stock issued pursuant to the Subscription Agreements are subject to resale restrictions until September 2, 2016, except the resale restrictions run until August 15, 2014 with respect to 42,319 shares. The number of restricted shares of common stock issued pursuant to the Subscription Agreements was calculated by using a price per share of common stock equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on July 12, 2013, which was $18.97.

The issuance of the shares of common stock was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), in accordance with Section 4(2) of the Act, as a transaction by an issuer not involving any public offering.

The foregoing description of the Subscription Agreements is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Subscription Agreements, attached as Exhibit 4.8 to the Stock Purchase Agreement, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Original Form 8-K, and incorporated herein by reference.

A copy of the Company’s press release announcing the closing of the Transaction is furnished as Exhibit 99.4 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. The information contained in Exhibit 99.4 is being furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to liability under Section 18 of the Exchange Act. Furthermore, the information contained in Exhibit 99.4 shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into the filings of the Company under the Act or the Exchange Act, except to the extent that the registrant specifically incorporates any such information by reference.
