Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Purchase Agreement

 

On August 31, 2018, Hub Group, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Mode Transportation, LLC (“Mode”), a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and Mode Purchaser, Inc. (“Purchaser”) pursuant to which the Company sold all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Mode to Purchaser (the “Disposition”). Mode’s temperature protected services division (“Temstar”) was not included in the Disposition and was retained by the Company. Purchaser is a newly formed company affiliated with York Capital Management.

 

Total consideration for the transaction is approximately $238.5 million in cash, subject to customary purchase price adjustments. In connection with the Disposition, the Company and Mode have entered into a transition services agreement pursuant to which both the Company and Mode will provide certain transition services to the other party for a period of time following the closing.

 

The Purchase Agreement includes representations, warranties, covenants, agreements and indemnification provisions as well as various provisions for purchase price and post-closing adjustments customary for transactions of this type. The representations and warranties in the Purchase Agreement are the product of negotiations between the parties to the Purchase Agreement and are made to, and solely for the benefit of, the party to whom such representations and warranties are made, in each case as of specified dates. Such representations and warranties have been made for the purpose of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the Purchase Agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts, may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors, and may not be relied upon by any other person.

 

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
