Item 1.01 Entry into a Material
Definitive Agreement
Louisiana Medical Center and
Heart Hospital
On September 30,
2011 MedCath Corporation (“MedCath”) entered into a definitive debt
and equity purchase agreement (the “purchase agreement”) to sell
its interest in Louisiana Medical Center & Heart Hospital (LMCHH) to
Cardiovascular Care Group (CCG). The purchase agreement and the transaction
were simultaneously signed and closed, effective September 30, 2011.
MedCath entered into the purchase agreement after receiving approval during a
special meeting of stockholders on September 22, 2011 to sell substantially
all of the remaining assets of MedCath.
Immediately prior to
closing MedCath converted a portion of its intercompany loans, approximately
$58.4 million of its $81.4 million of such loans to the hospital, to
additional equity in the hospital, increasing MedCath’s ownership to
95.4 percent, from 89.2 percent. MedCath then sold its equity and its
remaining intercompany loans to CCG for approximately $23.0 million
subject to certain working capital and other adjustments. Under the terms of
the purchase agreement, MedCath has agreed to indemnify CCG with respect to
certain pre-closing liabilities and obligations arising of LMCHH. MedCath
financed CCG’s purchase with a seller note that matures 60 days
after closing, subject to extension at CCG’s election for up to 60
additional days to provide CCG an opportunity to obtain permanent financing of
its purchase. MedCath also agreed to loan CCG up to an additional approximately
$1.55 million in the event LMCHH is required finally settle its cost
reports prior to November 30, 2011. If so advanced, that amount would be
added to the principal amount of the seller note. The promissory note is
secured by the equity in the hospital and the intercompany loans that were sold
to CCG, but is otherwise non-recourse to CCG and its affiliates.
The foregoing summary
is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual September 30, 2011
Debt and Equity Purchase Agreement dated September 30, 2011 by and Among
CCG of Louisiana, LLC, Louisiana Hospital Management, LLC and MedCath Finance
Company, LLC, which is filed as an Exhibit 2.1 hereto, the Promissory Note
dated September 30, 2011 between CCG of Louisiana and MedCath Finance
Company, LLC, which is filed as Exhibit 2.2 hereto, and the Security
Agreement dated as of September 30, 2011 by and among CCG of Louisiana,
LLC, and MedCath Finance Company, LLC, which is filed as Exhibit 2.3
hereto.
