On July 1, 2014, Gaming Partners International Corporation (the "Company") completed its acquisition of substantially all of the net assets (the "Acquisition") of GemGroup Inc. and its subsidiaries ("GemGroup") for $19.75 million using a combination of cash and bank financing. As previously disclosed, the Company acquired only the gaming assets of GemGroup. The Company borrowed $10.0 million under a demand line of credit with HSBC Bank USA, National Association (the "Line of Credit"), the net proceeds of which were used toward the payment of the purchase price for the Acquisition. A portion of the purchase price was escrowed to secure GemGroup's indemnification obligations under the Asset Purchase Agreement, dated July 1, 2014 (the "Purchase Agreement"), among the Company and GemGroup and its subsidiaries and shareholders. GemGroup is a privately-held manufacturer of casino currency, cards and table layouts primarily sold under the Gemaco brand.
