(16) Terminated Merger with Great Outdoors Group, LLC

On December 2, 2021, Sportsman’s Warehouse, Great Outdoors Group, LLC and Phoenix Merger Sub I, Inc. (“Merger Subsidiary”) entered into a Termination Agreement (the “Termination Agreement”) under which the parties agreed to terminate the merger agreement, dated December 21, 2020, among the same parties (the “merger Agreement”), effective immediately. Pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Subsidiary would have been merged with and into Sportsman’s Warehouse, with Sportsman’s Warehouse continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Great Outdoors Group, LLC (the “Merger”). The decision to terminate the Merger Agreement followed feedback from the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) that led the parties to believe that they would not have obtained FTC clearance to consummate the Merger. Under the Termination Agreement, Great Outdoors Group, LLC agreed to pay us the Parent Termination Fee (as defined in the Merger Agreement) of $55.0 million by wire transfer of immediately available funds concurrently with the execution of the Termination Agreement. The Company received the $55.0 million payment on December 2, 2021 included in other income (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations.
