Item 2.01.             Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

 

As previously disclosed, on March 11, 2014, The Men’s Wearhouse, Inc., a Texas corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Jos. A. Bank Clothiers, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Jos. A. Bank”), and Java Corp., a Delaware corporation wholly owned by the Company (“Purchaser”). In accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, on March 20, 2014, Purchaser amended and restated its existing offer (as amended, the “Offer”) to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Jos. A. Bank, par value $0.01 per share (together with the associated preferred share purchase rights, the “Shares”), for $65.00 per Share, net to the seller in cash, without interest and less any required withholding taxes (the “Offer Price”).

 

The Offer expired at midnight, New York City time, at the end of the day on June 17, 2014. Approximately 23,610,788 Shares (excluding Shares delivered pursuant to guaranteed delivery) were validly tendered in, and not withdrawn from, the Offer, representing approximately 84% of the outstanding Shares. Accordingly, the “Minimum Tender Condition” (as defined in the Second Amended and Restated Offer to Purchase dated March 20, 2014 (together with any amendments and supplements thereto)) was satisfied, and, on June 18, 2014, Purchaser accepted for payment all Shares that had been validly tendered in, and not withdrawn from, the Offer. Payment for such Shares has been made to American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, the depositary for the Offer, which will transmit payments to tendering stockholders in accordance with the terms of the Offer. In addition, Notices of Guaranteed Delivery have been delivered with respect to approximately 2,792,298 additional Shares, together with all other Shares validly tendered in, and not withdrawn from, the Offer, representing approximately 94% of the outstanding Shares.

 

Also, on June 18, 2014, following acceptance of the tendered Shares, Purchaser merged with and into Jos. A. Bank pursuant to Section 251(h) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”), with Jos. A. Bank surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”). At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and not tendered pursuant to the Offer (other than (i) Shares held by Jos. A. Bank or the Company or any of their subsidiaries and (ii) Shares owned by holders who properly exercised appraisal rights with respect thereto in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL) was cancelled and automatically converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the Offer Price.

 

The Company funded the payment of Shares validly tendered in the Offer from a combination of cash on hand, the net proceeds from the Company’s sale of $600 million in aggregate principal amount of senior notes on the terms and conditions previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on June 11, 2014, approximately $1.1 billion available under the Company’s senior secured term B loan and approximately $500 million available under the Company’s asset-based revolving credit facility, each dated as of June 18, 2014.

 

The foregoing summary of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Merger Agreement, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit (d)(1) to the Company’s Amendment No. 9 to Schedule TO filed on March 11, 2014, which is incorporated herein by reference.
