Closing terms
On February 28, 2019 at 11:58 p.m. Eastern Time, Nexeo became a wholly owned subsidiary of Univar and ceased to be traded on the NASDAQ. Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, each issued and outstanding share of Nexeo common stock has been converted into the right to receive merger consideration consisting of 0.305 shares of Univar common stock (with cash in lieu of any fractional shares) and $3.02 in cash. The stock consideration payable to former holders of Nexeo common stock and related stock awards consists, in the aggregate, of approximately 28 million shares of Univar common stock, or approximately 16% of Univar's issued and outstanding common stock following the completion of the transaction.
In connection with the closing, Univar borrowed revolving loans under an amended and restated revolving facility and borrowed incremental term loans under its existing term loan credit facility to refinance Nexeo's debt, fund other obligations, and finance the cash portion of the merger consideration. Additional details can be found in a current report on Form 8-K filed by Univar this morning with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
