Other
Events.
On December 18, 2006, CLST Holdings, Inc.
(the Company) entered into a definitive agreement (the U.S. Sale Agreement)
with a wholly owned subsidiary of Brightpoint, Inc., an Indiana
corporation (Brightpoint), providing for the sale of substantially all of the
Companys United States and Miami-based Latin American operations and for the
buyer to assume certain liabilities related to those operations (the U.S. Sale).
Our Boards of Directors and Brightpoint unanimously approved the proposed
transaction set forth in the U.S. Sale Agreement. The purchase price was $88
million in cash, subject to adjustment based on changes in net assets from December 18,
2006 to the closing date. The U.S. Sale Agreement also required the buyers to
deposit $8.8 million of the purchase price into an escrow account for a period
of six months from the closing date. To date, we have received approximately
$7.6 million of the amounts held in the escrow account, which such amount
includes accrued interest. An additional $1.4 million of the amount originally
placed in escrow became the subject of claims by Brightpoint, which claims were
disputed by the Company.
On December 21, 2007, the Company and
Brightpoint entered into a Letter Agreement (the Letter Agreement) which
settled the dispute concerning the additional escrow amount. All currently
outstanding disputes between the parties regarding the determination of the
purchase price under the U.S. Sale Agreement have been resolved, and payments
of funds in respect thereof will be made in accordance with the terms described
in the Letter Agreement. Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, by no later than January 20,
2008, the Company will receive approximately $3.0 million from Brightpoint plus
accrued interest and less transition expenses, and approximately $1.4 million
from the escrow agent. These amounts
will be the final amounts received under the U.S. Sale Agreement.
On
March 28, 2007, the Companys stockholders approved a plan of dissolution
(the Plan) that provides for the complete liquidation and dissolution of the
Company after the completion of the U.S. Sale, but subject to the ability of
the Board of Directors to abandon the Plan if it deems appropriate. Consistent with its fiduciary duties, the
Board of Directors is now giving careful consideration to the strategic
alternatives available to the Company, with a view to maximizing stockholder
value. Among other matters, the Board is
reviewing potential acquisitions and the value of the Companys tax assets. If
the Board determines that it is in the best interest of the Company to pursue
an acquisition, it will likely pursue a debt financing or equity issuance in
order to finance such acquisition.
It is unlikely the Board of Directors will make any
further distributions to the Companys stockholders under the Plan while it
considers the strategic alternatives available to the Company. It is possible that the Board of Directors
will, in the exercise of its fiduciary duty, elect to abandon the Plan for a
strategic alternative that it believes will maximize stockholder value, and
that no further liquidating distributions will be made.
