Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
|
On April 17, 2012, Catalyst Health Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation (
Catalyst
), and SXC Health Solutions Corp., a corporation organized under the laws of the Yukon
Territory, Canada (
SXC
), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the
Merger Agreement
), by and among, SXC, SXC Health Solutions, Inc., a Texas corporation and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of SXC
(
US Corp.
), Catamaran I Corp., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of US Corp. (
Merger Sub
), Catamaran II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of
US Corp. (
Merger LLC
), and Catalyst.
The Merger Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the
conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub will merge with and into Catalyst (the
Merger
), with Catalyst being the surviving corporation in the Merger, and immediately thereafter, the Mergers surviving corporation will
merge with and into Merger LLC (the
Subsequent Merger
), with Merger LLC being the surviving company in the Subsequent Merger. Catalyst and SXC intend for the Merger and the Subsequent Merger, taken together, to be treated as
a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.
At the
transactions effective time, each issued and outstanding share of Catalyst common stock will be converted into the right to receive (i) $28.00 in cash and (ii) 0.6606 shares of SXC common stock.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, following the transactions effective time, two members of Catalysts Board of Directors will
become members of SXCs Board of Directors.
Catalyst and SXC have each agreed to convene meetings of their respective
stockholders to consider and vote upon, in Catalysts case, the Merger Agreement and the Merger, and in SXCs case, the issuance of shares of SXC common stock to Catalyst stockholders as a component of the Merger consideration.
Catalysts Board of Directors recommends that its stockholders approve the Merger Agreement and the Merger.
Consummation
of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are subject to customary conditions, including the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as
amended. The Merger Agreement contemplates that the parties will take certain specified actions which may be necessary to obtain regulatory clearance.
Consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are also subject to other customary conditions, including (i) approval of the Merger Agreement and Merger by
Catalysts stockholders and approval of the share issuance by SXCs
1
stockholders, (ii) the approval for listing of the shares SXCs common stock to be issued in the Merger on the Nasdaq Stock Market and the Toronto Stock Exchange, (iii) the absence
of any order prohibiting or restraining the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, (iv) the effectiveness under the Securities Act of 1933 of a registration statement covering the shares of SXC common stock to be issued in the
Merger, (v) the receipt of certain regulatory consents, (vi) subject to certain exceptions, the accuracy of Catalysts and SXCs representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement and (vii) performance by Catalyst and
SXC of their respective obligations in the Merger Agreement.
SXC has obtained a debt financing commitment for the
transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the aggregate proceeds of which will be used by SXC to (i) pay the aggregate Per Share Merger Consideration (as defined in the Merger Agreement), (ii) pay related fees and expenses
required to be paid by SXC, Merger Sub and the surviving corporation in connection with the Merger, and (iii) refinance certain outstanding debt of Catalyst and SXC. Pursuant to the debt commitment, JP Morgan Chase Bank N.A. has committed to
provide credit facilities to SXC in the aggregate amount of $1,800,000,000, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the debt commitment letter, dated April 17, 2012.
The Merger Agreement contains customary restrictions on the ability of both Catalyst and SXC to solicit acquisition proposals from third
parties and to provide information to and engage in discussions with third parties regarding acquisition proposals.
The
Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for Catalyst and SXC. Upon termination of the Merger Agreement under specified circumstances, Catalyst or SXC, as the case may be, will be required to pay the other party a termination fee of
$134,500,000. The Merger Agreement also provides that SXC will be required to pay Catalyst a reverse termination fee of $281,500,000 if SXC fails to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement on or prior to the date that is 10
business days after notice from Catalyst of the satisfaction or waiver of all the conditions to the Closing specified in the Merger Agreement as a result of a Financing Failure (as defined in the Merger Agreement).
The representations, warranties and covenants of Catalyst contained in the Merger Agreement have been made solely for the benefit of SXC
and Merger Sub and the additional persons specifically described therein. In addition, such representations, warranties and covenants (a) have been made only for purposes of the Merger Agreement, (b) have been qualified by matters
specifically disclosed in any reports filed by Catalyst with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
SEC
) prior to the date of the Merger Agreement, (c) are subject to materiality qualifications contained in the Merger
Agreement, which might differ from what is viewed as material by investors, (d) were made only as of the date of the Merger Agreement or such other date as is specified in the Merger Agreement and (e) have been included in the Merger
Agreement for the purpose of allocating risk between the contracting parties rather than establishing matters as fact. The representations in the Merger Agreement reflect negotiations
2
between the parties and may be limited or modified by a variety of factors, including correspondence between the parties and the disclosure schedules delivered in connection with the execution of
the Merger Agreement. Accordingly, the Merger Agreement is included with this filing only to provide investors with information regarding the terms of the Merger Agreement, and not to provide investors with any other factual information regarding
Catalyst or its business. Investors should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof in the Merger Agreement as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of Catalyst or any of its
subsidiaries or affiliates. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Merger Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in
Catalysts public disclosures. The Merger Agreement should not be read alone, but should instead be read in conjunction with the other information regarding Catalyst that is or will be contained in, or incorporated by reference into,
Catalysts Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and any other documents that Catalyst files or has filed with the SEC.
The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Merger
Agreement, which is attached hereto as
Exhibit 2.1
and incorporated herein by reference.
Catalyst Forward Looking Statements
Certain statements included herein may contain certain forward-looking statements including, without limitation, statements concerning
Catalysts operations, economic performance and financial condition. The words believe, expect, anticipate, will, could, would, should, may,
plan, estimate, intend, predict, potential, continue, and the negatives of these words and other similar expressions generally identify forward-looking statements. In addition
to Catalysts expectations or estimates of a combined companys future performance or matters relating to the proposed transaction, these forward-looking statements may include statements addressing Catalysts operations and
Catalysts financial performance. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which, among other things, speak only as of their dates. These forward-looking statements are based largely on
Catalysts current expectations and are based on a number of risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation, (i) general adverse economic conditions, (ii) changes in governmental laws and regulations,
(iii) Catalysts ability to compete effectively in the pharmacy benefit management industry, (iv) Catalysts relationships with key clients, pharmacy network affiliations and various pharmaceutical manufacturers and rebate
intermediaries, (v) changes in industry pricing benchmarks, (vi) uncertainties relating to the transition and integration of completed and future acquisitions and/or expansion opportunities, (vii) Catalysts current level of
indebtedness and any future indebtedness Catalyst may incur; (viii) disruption in Catalysts
3
operations, (ix) unanticipated changes in Catalysts ability to execute its growth strategy, (x) generic utilization levels, (xi) insufficient insurance coverage to cover
costs associated with litigation, (xii) Catalysts ability to accurately estimate how much future revenue Catalyst will generate, as well as the level of implementation and transaction costs that Catalyst will incur, under newly commenced
PBM agreements and other risks and uncertainties discussed in Catalysts filings with the SEC, including Catalysts Annual Report on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. Actual results could differ materially from
results referred to in the forward-looking statements. In light of these risks and uncertainties, there can be no assurances that the results referred to in the forward-looking statements contained herein will, in fact, occur. Catalyst undertakes no
obligation to revise any forward-looking statements in order to reflect events or circumstances that may arise after the date hereof. Readers are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made in Catalysts other filings
with the SEC that attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect Catalysts business.
Transaction
Forward-Looking Statements
In addition, numerous factors could cause actual results with respect to the proposed transaction to differ
materially from those in the forward-looking statements, including without limitation, the possibility that the expected efficiencies and cost savings from the proposed transaction will not be realized, or will not be realized within the expected
time period; the risk that the SXC and Catalyst businesses will not be integrated successfully; the ability to obtain governmental approvals of the proposed transaction on the proposed terms and schedule contemplated by the parties; the failure of
shareholders of SXC or Catalyst to approve the proposed transaction; disruption from the proposed transaction making it more difficult to maintain business and operational relationships; the risk of customer attrition; the possibility that the
proposed transaction does not close, including, but not limited to, due to the failure to satisfy the closing conditions; and the ability to obtain the financing contemplated to fund a portion of the consideration to be paid in the proposed
transaction and the terms of such financing.

proposed transaction involving Catalyst and SXC. The proposed transaction will be submitted to the shareholders of Catalyst and the shareholders of SXC for their consideration. In connection therewith, the parties intend to file relevant materials
