Item 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Stock Purchase Agreement

 

On June 29, 2015 (the “Agreement Date”), AMAG Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with CBR Holdco, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Seller”), and CBR Acquisition Holdings Corp., a Delaware corporation (“CBR”). The Stock Purchase Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Seller agrees to sell, and the Company agrees to purchase, all of the outstanding equity securities of CBR (the “Acquisition”). The Boards of Directors of the Company and CBR, as well as the Board of Managers of the Seller, have approved the Stock Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby.  CBR’s wholly-owned subsidiary, CBR Systems, Inc. (“CBR Systems” and together with CBR, the “Acquired Business”), which operates as Cord Blood Registry, is a privately held provider of services for the collection, processing, and long-term cryopreservation of umbilical cord blood and cord tissue stem cells for family use.

 

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to pay the Seller an aggregate of $700 million in cash consideration, subject to working capital, net debt and transaction expense adjustments as set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Seller agrees to indemnify the Company for certain matters, including breaches of specified representations and warranties, covenants included in the Stock Purchase Agreement, specified pre-closing tax claims, and certain claims related to the reimbursement of the Company related to engagement and retainer fees.  Similarly, pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company agrees to indemnify the Seller for certain matters, including breaches of specified representations and warranties and covenants included in the Stock Purchase Agreement. The maximum liability of each of the Seller and the Company for indemnification claims is limited to $20 million.

 

The Stock Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of the parties, including, among other things, that during the period from the Agreement Date until the earlier of the termination of the Stock Purchase Agreement or the date of the closing of the Acquisition (the “Closing Date”), CBR shall, and shall cause its subsidiaries to, conduct their respective businesses in the ordinary course of business.  In addition, CBR agreed to certain negative covenants customary for a transaction of this type, including, among others, that, subject to customary carve-outs, CBR will not, and will cause its subsidiaries not to (a) authorize, issue, sell or deliver any of its subsidiaries’ equity securities, (b) increase employee compensation or other benefits or adopt, amend, terminate or materially increase the benefits under any employee plan, (c) make any distribution or declare any dividend, other than any paid solely in cash, (d) authorize or effect any recapitalization, reclassification, equity split or like change, (e) enter into any merger or consolidation or undertake any liquidation or other dissolution, (f) make any redemption of, purchase or otherwise acquire any units or shares, (g) acquire any other business, make certain capital expenditures or incur any indebtedness, (h) commence or settle certain proceedings, (i) make or change any material tax election, or (j) effect or publicly announce any intention to change product or services pricing.

 

The Stock Purchase Agreement also contains customary conditions to closing, including, among other things, receipt of required antitrust approvals, the representations and warranties of the Seller, CBR and the Company being true and correct at the closing, subject to materiality, material adverse effect and de minimis qualifiers, each as detailed in the Stock Purchase Agreement, and the absence of any material adverse changes affecting the Seller and CBR.  Receipt of financing by the Company is not a condition to the Company’s obligations under the Stock Purchase Agreement; however, the Stock Purchase Agreement does provide that the Company shall have a 15 business day marketing period after receipt of certain financial information from CBR (with customary exclusions for holidays) to obtain financing to fund a portion of the consideration, and CBR has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to cooperate with the Company in the Company’s efforts to obtain such financing, including the preparation and delivery of certain audited financial information and assistance in preparing certain pro forma financial information.

The Stock Purchase Agreement provides for limited termination rights, including, among others, by the mutual consent of the Company and the Seller; upon certain breaches of representations, warranties, covenants or agreements; and in the event the Acquisition has not been consummated before October 28, 2015.

 

The above description of the Stock Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Stock Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 hereto.

 

Commitment Letter

 

Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company is obligated to obtain financing to fund a portion of the consideration in respect of the Acquisition.

 

Concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Stock Purchase Agreement, Jefferies Finance LLC and Barclays Bank PLC (collectively, the “Joint Lead Arrangers”) entered into a commitment letter with the Company (the “Commitment Letter”) pursuant to which the Joint Lead Arrangers and additional lenders (together, the “Lenders”) have committed to provide (i) a senior secured term loan facility of up to $350.0 million (the “Term Loan Facility”) and (ii) senior unsecured increasing rate loans (the “Bridge Loans”)  in an aggregate principal amount of up to $450.0 million under a senior unsecured bridge loan facility (the “Bridge Loan Facility” and together with the Term Loan Facility, the “Debt Financing”), in each case, subject to the conditions set forth in the Commitment Letter. These conditions are described in more detail below. If the Company decides to enter into the Debt Financing, the Company would use the proceeds of the Term Loan Facility and the Bridge Loan Facility to (i) pay a portion of the consideration, (ii) pay various fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Acquisition and the Debt Financing, and (iii) repay certain indebtedness of the Company, CBR and their subsidiaries ((i) through (iii) collectively referred to as the “Financial Obligations”). The Company may also fund a portion of the Financial Obligations using cash on hand and other available sources of funding, including through the issuance and sale of senior unsecured notes (the “Notes”) and the issuance and sale of equity or equity-linked securities, which would reduce the amount of the Term Loan Facility and/or Bridge Loan Facility.

 

The obligations of the Lenders to provide the financing under the Commitment Letter for the Debt Financing are subject to a number of conditions (including conditions that do not relate directly to the Stock Purchase Agreement), including, among others: (i) consummation of the Acquisition in accordance with the Stock Purchase Agreement (without giving effect to any amendments, modifications or waivers to the Stock Purchase Agreement that are materially adverse to the interests of the Joint Lead Arrangers or the Lenders without the prior written consent of the Joint Lead Arrangers); (ii) a 15 business day marketing period (with customary exclusions for holidays) for the Lead Arrangers to syndicate the Term Loan Facility, (iii) the Company using its best efforts to cause the Notes to be issued and sold, (iv) that since the date of the Commitment Letter, there has been no material adverse effect on the Acquired Business; (v) delivery of certain customary historical and pro forma financial statements with respect to the Company and the Acquired Business; (vi) payment of all costs, fees, expenses and other compensation in connection with the Debt Financing; (vii) delivery of definitive loan documentation and certain customary closing documents; and (viii) the accuracy of certain customary representations and warranties.

 

The Commitment Letter expires on the earliest of (i) the date that is five business days after the valid termination of the Stock Purchase Agreement, (ii) the closing of the Acquisition (unless the Lenders have failed to fund in breach of their obligations under the Commitment Letter) and (iii) October 26, 2015.

 

The Term Loan Facility amortizes in quarterly installments over the term of the Term Loan Facility, is secured by substantially all assets of the Company and its subsidiaries and is guaranteed by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries. In addition, the terms of the Term Loan Facility commitment include the following, without limitation: (i) mandatory prepayment provisions from excess cash flow, certain debt issuances and certain dispositions, (ii) uncommitted incremental facilities, and (iii) customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, and events of default.

 

The Bridge Loan Facility is unsecured, is guaranteed by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries and matures one year from the initial date of funding (the “Bridge Loan Maturity Date”).  If the Bridge Loans have not been repaid prior to the Bridge Loan Maturity Date, they shall automatically be converted into senior unsecured term loans (“Extended Term Loans”) with a maturity date on the seventh anniversary of the Bridge Loan Maturity

Date. Under certain circumstances, at the option of the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Extended Term Loans may be exchanged for exchange notes. In addition, the terms of the Bridge Loan Facility include the following, without limitation: (i) mandatory prepayment provisions from the proceeds of any offering of the Notes or other debt securities, certain debt issuances and certain dispositions and (ii) customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, and events of default.

 

Pursuant to the Commitment Letter and in accordance with the terms of a fee letter entered into among the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Company, the Joint Lead Arrangers expect to receive certain customary fees, some of which are based on their pro rata participation under the Commitment Letter, from the Company, including certain fees payable depending on various circumstances and contingencies. In addition, the fee letter includes certain “market-flex” provisions.

consideration to be paid and the terms and conditions thereof, and the other transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement; the Company’s expectations regarding the financing and its Commitment with the Lenders and the issuance of the Notes are forward-looking statements which involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in such forward-looking statements.  Statements about the Company’s or CBR’s past financial results do not, and are not meant to, predict future results.  The Company can provide no assurance that such results and performance will continue.  For the avoidance of doubt, any statements in this report that relate to the Acquisition are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the PSLRA and other federal securities laws.

 

Such risks and uncertainties include, among others, (1) the possibility that the closing conditions set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement, including those conditions related to antitrust clearance, will not be met and that the parties will be unable to consummate the proposed Acquisition, (2) the chance that, despite having a commitment in place, the Company will be unable to secure financing, or financing on satisfactory or anticipated terms, in amounts sufficient to consummate the Acquisition and the possibility that such financing may have a dilutive effect on the Company’s current stockholders, (3) the possibility that, if the Acquisition is consummated, the Company may not realize the expected benefits, synergies and opportunities anticipated in connection with the Acquisition, including that the Acquisition will further diversify the Company’s revenue base, be immediately accretive to adjusted EBITDA, and result in expected annual synergies of approximately $15 million annually, (4) the challenges of integrating the CBR into the Company’s organization, including CBR’s commercial team, as well as the Company’s ability to retain key CBR talent and the resulting disruptions to the Company’s and CBR’s operations if it fails to do so, (5) the Company’s ability to successfully continue the CBR business, including as a result of CBR’s service based business model, the market for stem cell research and the need for strategic pricing skills to optimize the forward looking business, (6) the potential for stem cell science and its recognition, adoption and utility among the medical community, (7) the ethical, legal and social implications of stem cell research, and the possibility that negative public opinion about stem cell therapy may damage public perception of the Company’s overall business and (8) such other risks identified in the Company’s Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) filings, including the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 and subsequent filings with the SEC. The Company cautions you not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made.
