The Items below amend the information disclosed under the corresponding Items of the Schedule 13D as described below. Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 1 does not modify any of the information previously reported in the Schedule 13D. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meaning set forth in the Schedule 13D.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
Merger Agreement
On November 24, 2024, the Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Quikrete Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Purchaser”), and Soar Subsidiary, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Purchaser (“Merger Sub”). Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Issuer (the “Merger”), with the Issuer surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Purchaser.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each issued and outstanding share of the Issuer’s (i) Class A Common Stock and (ii) Class B common stock, par value $0.01 per share (together with the Class A Common Stock described in the foregoing clause (i), “Company Common Shares” and each, a “Company Common Share”) (other than any Company Common Shares that are held by the Issuer as treasury stock or held by Purchaser, Merger Sub or any other subsidiary of Purchaser or the Issuer or any Company Common Shares as to which appraisal rights have been properly exercised in accordance with Delaware law), will automatically be canceled and retired and converted into the right to receive $52.50 per share in cash, without interest and subject to deduction for any required withholding.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, any shares of preferred stock of the Issuer, par value $0.01 per share, outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will automatically be canceled and retired for no consideration and will cease to exist.
Voting Agreement
On November 24, 2024, concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement, in their respective capacities as record and beneficial owners of Company Common Shares, Cementos Argos, Argos SEM and Valle Cement (collectively, the “Supporting Shareholders”) entered into a Voting Agreement (the “Voting Agreement”) with Purchaser, pursuant to which the Supporting Shareholders agree, among other things, to vote their Company Common Shares in favor of any proposal to approve the adoption of the Merger Agreement and approve the Merger.
The Voting Agreement will terminate at the earliest to occur of (a) the Effective Time, (b) such date and time as the Merger Agreement is validly terminated, (c) the termination of the Voting Agreement by written agreement of all of the parties to the Voting Agreement, (d) the date on which any amendment or waiver to the Merger Agreement is effected without the prior written consent of Cementos Argos that (i) decreases the Merger Consideration, (ii) changes the form of the Merger Consideration or (iii) is otherwise adverse to the Supporting Shareholders in their capacities as record and beneficial owners of Company Common Shares, in any material respect, or (e) the occurrence of an Adverse Recommendation Change in respect of an Intervening Event in accordance with Section 6.04(b)(ii)(B) of the Merger Agreement.
The foregoing description of the Voting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Voting Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.
