Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

The information in Item 2.01 below is incorporated in this Item 1.01 by reference.

 

Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On October 7, 2014, Skyline Corporation (“Skyline” or the “Company”) completed the sale of certain assets associated with its Recreational Vehicle (“RV”) segment (the “Transaction”) to Evergreen Recreational Vehicles, LLC (“ERV”). The Transaction was completed pursuant to the terms of an Asset Purchase Agreement entered into between Skyline and ERV on October 7, 2014, as well as the terms of a Real Property Purchase Agreement entered into on that same date between Skyline and an affiliate of ERV, Skyline RE Holding LLC (which, collectively with ERV, is referred to herein as “Evergreen”). The assets of the RV segment disposed of in the Transaction include, but are not limited to:

 

    A recreational vehicle manufacturing facility consisting of approximately 135,000 square feet situated on 18.2 acres located in Bristol, Indiana;

 

    Intellectual properties such as trademarks, licenses, and product designs associated with the RV segment;

 

    Furniture, machinery, software, and equipment;

 

    Raw material, work-in-process, and finished goods inventories;

 

    Product designs, plans, and specifications;

 

    Customer purchase orders and contracts, customer lists, and supplier lists; and

 

    All of Skyline’s rights to the exhibit space at the 2014 RVIA Louisville Show and related show materials (although Skyline will retain approximately 4,500 square feet of show space for its own use).

The amount and nature of the consideration received by Skyline for the assets sold include:

 

    A cash payment of $175,000;

 

    A separate cash payment of $806,206 for the Bristol, Indiana manufacturing facility;

 

    Within 30 days of the closing date of October 7, 2014 (the “Closing Date”), Evergreen will pay Skyline a cash payment for the 2014 RVIA Louisville Show space (less the retained 4,500 square feet) at the per square foot lease rate paid by Skyline for the space;

 

    For six months following the Closing Date, Evergreen will pay Skyline 50 percent of the Company’s cost for raw materials inventory purchased by the Company prior to the Closing Date within 10 days of Evergreen’s use of the raw material. After six months following the Closing Date, Skyline will have the right to remove any remaining materials inventory from Evergreen’s possession; and

 

    Evergreen will pay Skyline 50 percent of the Company’s dealer invoice price for all finished goods inventory existing prior to the Closing Date which is sold after the Closing Date within 10 business days of any sale.

In addition, under the Asset Purchase Agreement Evergreen will not assume or agree to pay, perform, or discharge any of Skyline’s liabilities or obligations, which will remain the liabilities and obligations of Skyline.


The foregoing descriptions of the Transaction, Asset Purchase Agreement, and Real Property Purchase Agreement are summaries and do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Asset Purchase Agreement and Real Property Purchase Agreement, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits 2.1 and 2.2, respectively, and incorporated by reference herein.
