On October 1 2015, Standex International Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Standex”) and the shareholders of Northlake Engineering, Inc., a Wisconsin corporation, (“Northlake”) simultaneously entered into and consummated a Stock Purchase Agreement pursuant to which Standex acquired all of the outstanding stock of Northlake (the “Agreement”).  Pursuant to the Agreement, Standex has paid approximately $13.5 million in cash for the aggregate outstanding shares of Northlake.  The Purchase Price is subject to post-closing adjustments tied to the level of working capital of the business at the time of the closing, and revenues recognized over the next two fiscal years.  Northlake is a designer, manufacturer and distributor of high reliability electromagnetic products and solutions serving North American power distribution and medical equipment markets.

The Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, indemnities and covenants for stock purchase agreements, made by both parties.  The parties have also entered into certain ancillary agreements including an escrow agreement and employment/consulting agreement which include non-competition covenants.
