Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Merger Agreement

On February 4, 2014, Entegris, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Entegris”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with ATMI, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ATMI”) and Atomic Merger Corporation, a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Entegris (“Merger Sub”). The Merger Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, Merger Sub will be merged with and into ATMI (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, ATMI will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Entegris.

Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each share of ATMI’s common stock (“ATMI Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be cancelled and extinguished and converted into the right to receive $34.00 in cash, without interest or dividends, other than shares of ATMI Common Stock: (i) owned directly by Entegris, or any of its subsidiaries; (ii) owned by ATMI as treasury stock, or by any of its subsidiaries, (iii) subject to time and/or performance vesting conditions; or (iv) as to which dissenters’ rights have been properly exercised.

The consummation of the Merger is subject to receiving the approval of holders of a majority of the outstanding ATMI common stock entitled to vote on the Merger and various closing conditions including the expiration of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and other customary conditions. The Merger Agreement also includes customary termination provisions for both ATMI and Entegris and provides that, in connection with the termination of the Merger Agreement by Entegris, under specified circumstances ATMI will be required to pay Entegris a termination fee of $30,000,000. In the event the conditions to consummating the Merger have been met on the date that the closing of the Merger is required to occur but Entegris and Merger Sub fail to consummate the Merger, ATMI, if it is not then in material breach of the Merger Agreement, may terminate the Merger Agreement and Entegris shall be required to pay ATMI a termination fee of $100,000,000.

A copy of the Merger Agreement is filed herewith as Exhibit 2.1 and incorporated by reference herein. This summary of certain terms of the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Merger Agreement were made only for the purposes of such agreement and as of specified dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. In addition, the assertions embodied in the representations and warranties contained in the Merger Agreement are qualified by information in confidential disclosure letters that the parties have exchanged, which have been omitted pursuant to Item 601(b)(2) of Regulation S-K. Accordingly, investors should not rely on the representations and warranties as characterizations of the actual state of facts.

Debt Commitments

On February 4, 2014, Entegris entered into a commitment letter (the “Debt Commitment Letter”) with Goldman Sachs Bank USA (“Goldman Sachs”). Pursuant to the Debt Commitment Letter, Goldman Sachs has agreed to provide the financing (the “Debt Commitment Financing”) necessary to consummate the Merger.

The Debt Commitment Financing is anticipated to be comprised of the following sources:

 

    a senior secured term loan facility, with Entegris as borrower, in an aggregate principal amount of $460,000,000;

 

    senior unsecured notes of Entegris in an aggregate principal amount of $360,000,000. These notes are intended to be issued in an underwritten offering, but will be issued as a bridge loan from Goldman Sachs if for any reason the underwritten offering cannot be completed by the Merger closing.

 

    a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility, with Entegris as borrower, in an aggregate principal amount of $85,000,000, only a portion of which may be advanced on the Merger closing.
