Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

 

On May 24, 2013, Rockwell Holdco, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), which was formed by Energy Capital Partners II, LP and its parallel funds, completed its previously announced acquisition of EnergySolutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of January 7, 2013, as amended on April 5, 2013, by and among Parent, the Company, and Rockwell Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.

 

At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each issued and outstanding share of common stock of the Company (the “Company Common Stock”), par value $0.01 per share (other than shares of Company Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company or owned by Parent, affiliates of Parent, Merger Sub, a subsidiary of the Company or by stockholders who have validly exercised and perfected their appraisal rights under Delaware law), was converted into the right to receive $4.15 in cash, without interest and subject to any required withholding of taxes (the “Merger Consideration”). As a result of the Merger, the Company became a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, with Parent owning all of the Company Common Stock.

 

The foregoing description of the Merger, the Merger Agreement and the rights of holders of the Company Common Stock is only a summary, does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 8, 2013 and which is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

 

On May 24, 2013, in connection with the closing of the Merger, the Company notified the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) that trading in the Company Common Stock should be suspended and the listing of the Company Common Stock on the NYSE should be removed. The Company requested that the NYSE file with the SEC an application on Form 25 to delist and deregister the Company Common Stock under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). The Company intends to file with the SEC a Form 15 to terminate the registration of the Company Common Stock under Section 12 of the Exchange Act and notify the SEC of the suspension of the Company’s reporting obligations with respect to the Company Common Stock under Section 13(a) of the Exchange Act.  The Company will continue to have reporting obligations with respect to the Company’s 10.75% Senior Notes Due 2018.

 

Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

 

At the Effective Time, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company’s  Certificate of Incorporation was amended and restated to read in its entirety as the certificate of incorporation of Merger Sub in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that the name of the company set forth therein is “EnergySolutions, Inc.” (the “Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation”). The Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation reflects, among other things, changes to the authorized common stock of the Company.

 

Also, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, the bylaws of Merger Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, became the bylaws of the Company, as the surviving corporation in the Merger, except that the name of the company set forth therein is “EnergySolutions, Inc.” (the “Amended and Restated Bylaws”).

The foregoing descriptions of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and the Amended and Restated Bylaws are not complete and are subject to and qualified in their entirety by reference to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and the Amended and Restated Bylaws, copies of which are attached as Exhibit 3.1 and Exhibit 3.2, respectively, hereto and are incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 5.01 Changes in Control of Registrant.

 

A change of control of the Company occurred on May 24, 2013 upon the filing of the certificate of merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, at which time Merger Sub merged with and into the Company. As a result of the Merger, the Company became a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, with Parent owning all of the Company Common Stock.

 

Parent paid a total of approximately $396 million in cash to the Company’s stockholders in connection with the Merger.

 

The information set forth in Items 2.01 and 3.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 5.01.

 

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

 

Employment Agreement with David J. Lockwood

 

On May 24, 2013, the Company entered into an employment agreement with David J. Lockwood, which provides that Mr. Lockwood will continue to serve as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The employment agreement replaces and supersedes all prior agreements between the Company and Mr. Lockwood related to his employment, including his offer letter, severance agreement, phantom performance share unit agreement, and restricted stock agreement, each entered into in June 2012, and his retention award agreement, entered into in January 2013.

 

Cash Payments. Under the employment agreement, Mr. Lockwood is entitled to an annual base salary of $600,000 and to a cash bonus for each fiscal year, commencing with fiscal year 2014, with a target amount equal to 100% of his annual base salary. In connection with the closing of the Merger to settle existing obligations owed to Mr. Lockwood and in connection with the execution of the employment agreement, Mr. Lockwood received a cash payment equal to $16,819,184. Subject to certain vesting conditions and Mr. Lockwood’s compliance with certain noncompetition and nonsolicitation covenants, upon his termination of employment, Mr. Lockwood will be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the amount that results in Mr. Lockwood receiving $3,169,343, after payment of income taxes on such payment.

 

Option Award. In connection with the execution of the employment agreement, Parent granted Mr. Lockwood a non-qualified stock option to purchase 7,894 shares of Parent common stock. Under the terms of the employment agreement, Mr. Lockwood is also entitled to receive additional stock options in the event that certain stockholders purchase additional shares of Parent common stock prior to November 24, 2013. Each option will vest and become exercisable in five equal annual installments, subject to full or partial acceleration in the event of a change in control of Parent or upon a termination of Mr. Lockwood’s employment by the Company without “cause” or by Mr. Lockwood for “good reason.” Each option will be subject to forfeiture and/or repayment in the event Mr. Lockwood breaches his noncompetition covenant.

 

Investment in Parent. In connection with the execution of the employment agreement, Mr. Lockwood entered into an agreement to purchase a number of shares of Parent common stock worth $5,000,000.

 

Stock Option Plan of Rockwell Holdco, Inc.

 

On May 22, 2013, the board of directors and stockholders of Parent approved the Stock Option Plan of Rockwell Holdco, Inc. (the “Plan”), pursuant to which stock options may be granted to the employees, consultants, non-employee directors of Parent or its subsidiaries. Under the Plan, 36,087 shares of Parent common stock have

 

3



 

been reserved for issuance under the Plan. Any option granted under the Plan will be subject to terms and conditions contained in a written stock option agreement, and any shares of Parent common stock received upon exercise of an option under the Plan will be subject to Parent’s Stockholders Agreement. Prior to an initial public offering, the board of directors of Parent will administer the Plan and may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan at any time or from time to time, subject in certain cases to stockholder approval.

Section 6.                   Special meetings of the stockholders, for any purpose, or purposes, unless otherwise prescribed by statute or by the Certificate of Incorporation, may be called by the President and shall be called by the President or the Secretary at the request in writing of a majority of the Board of Directors, or at the request in writing of stockholders owning a majority in amount of the entire capital stock of the Corporation, issued and outstanding, and entitled to vote.  Such request shall state the purpose or purposes of the proposed meeting.  Business transacted at any special meeting of stockholders shall be limited to the purposes stated in the notice.

Section 9.                   Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, any action required to be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation, or any action which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of such stockholders, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted.  Prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those stockholders who have not consented in writing.

4



 

each director elected shall hold office until his successor is elected and qualified; provided, however, that unless otherwise restricted by the Certificate of Incorporation or by law, any director or the entire Board of Directors may be removed, either with or without cause, from the Board of Directors at any meeting of stockholders by a majority of the stock represented and entitled to vote thereat.

 

Section 2.                   Vacancies on the Board of Directors by reason of death, resignation, retirement, disqualification, removal from office, or otherwise, and newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized number of directors may be filled by a majority of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director.  The directors so chosen shall hold office until the next annual election of directors and until their successors are duly elected and shall qualify, unless sooner replaced by a vote of the stockholders.  If there are no directors in office, then an election of directors may be held in the manner provided by statute.  If, at the time of filling any vacancy or any newly created directorship, the directors then in office shall constitute less than a majority of the whole Board of Directors (as constituted immediately prior to any such increase), the Court of Chancery may, upon application of any stockholder or stockholders holding at least ten percent of the total number of the shares at the time outstanding having the right to vote for such directors, summarily order an election to be held to fill any such vacancies or newly created directorships, or to replace the directors chosen by the directors then in office.

 

Section 3.                   The property and business of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of its Board of Directors.  In addition to the powers and authorities by these Bylaws expressly conferred upon them, the Board of Directors may exercise all such powers of

Section 6.                   Special meetings of the Board of Directors may be called by the Chairman of the Board or the President or any two members of the Board of Directors on twenty-four hours’ notice to each director, either personally or by mail, email, facsimile or other electronic transmission.

 

Section 7.                   At all meetings of the Board of Directors a majority of the authorized number of directors shall be necessary and sufficient to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, and the vote of a majority of the directors present at any meeting at which there is a quorum, shall be the act of the Board of Directors, except as may be otherwise specifically provided by statute, by the Certificate of Incorporation or by these Bylaws.  If a quorum shall not be present at any meeting of the Board of Directors, the directors present thereat may adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum shall be present.  If only one director is authorized, such sole director shall constitute a quorum.  At any meeting, a director shall have the right to be accompanied by counsel provided

 

6



 

that such counsel shall agree to any confidentiality restrictions reasonably imposed by the Corporation.

 

Section 8.                   Unless otherwise restricted by the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Directors or of any committee thereof may be taken without a meeting, if all members of the Board of Directors or committee, as the case may be, consent thereto in writing, and the writing or writings are filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board of Directors or committee.

 

Section 9.                   Unless otherwise restricted by the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, members of the Board of Directors, or any committee designated by the Board of Directors, may participate in a meeting of the Board of Directors, or any committee, by means of conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and such participation in a meeting shall constitute presence in person at such meeting.

 

Section 10.            The Board of Directors may, by resolution passed by a majority of the whole Board of Directors, designate one or more committees, each such committee to consist of one or more of the directors of the Corporation.  The Board of Directors may designate one or more directors as alternate members of any committee, who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of the committee.  In the absence or disqualification of a member of a committee, the member or members thereof present at any meeting and not disqualified from voting, whether or not he or they constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another member of the Board of Directors to act at the meeting in the place of any such absent or disqualified member.  Any such committee, to the extent provided in the resolution of

 

7



 

the Board of Directors, shall have and may exercise all the powers and authority of the Board of Directors in the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation, and may authorize the seal of the Corporation to be affixed to all papers which may require it; but no such committee shall have the power or authority in reference to amending the Certificate of Incorporation, adopting an agreement of merger or consolidation, recommending to the stockholders the sale, lease or exchange of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s property and assets, recommending to the stockholders a dissolution of the Corporation or a revocation of a dissolution, or amending the Bylaws of the Corporation; and, unless the resolution or the Certificate of Incorporation expressly so provide, no such committee shall have the power or authority to declare a dividend or to authorize the issuance of stock.

 

Section 11.            Each committee shall keep regular minutes of its meetings and report the same to the Board of Directors when required.

 

Section 12.            Unless otherwise restricted by the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, the Board of Directors shall have the authority to fix the compensation of directors.  The directors may be paid their expenses, if any, of attendance at each meeting of the Board of Directors and may be paid a fixed sum for attendance at each meeting of the Board of Directors or a stated salary as director.  No such payment shall preclude any director from serving the Corporation in any other capacity and receiving compensation therefor.  Members of special or standing committees may be allowed like compensation for attending committee meetings.

ARTICLE V.

EXCULPATION AND INDEMNIFICATION

OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS AND OTHERS

 

Section 1.                   Limitation on Liability. A director of the Corporation shall not be personally liable either to the Corporation or to any stockholder for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders, or (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, or (iii) under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law or any successor provision thereto, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director shall have derived an improper personal benefit. Neither amendment nor repeal of this Section 1 nor the adoption of any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation inconsistent with this Section 1 shall eliminate or reduce the effect of this Section 1 in respect of any matter occurring, or any cause of action, suit or claim that, but for this Section 1, would accrue or arise prior to such amendment, repeal or adoption of an inconsistent provision.

 

Section 2.                   Indemnification of Directors, Officers and Others. The Corporation shall indemnify to the full extent permitted by law any person who is or was a party to, or is threatened to be made a party to, or testifies in, any threatened, pending or completed action, suit

 

13



 

or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative in nature, by reason of the fact that such person is or was, or is alleged to have been, a director or officer of the Corporation or is or was serving, or is alleged to have been serving, at the request of the Corporation as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, employee benefit plan, trust or other enterprise, including any charitable enterprise (an “Other Entity”), against expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements), judgments, fines, other liabilities and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding. Persons who are not directors or officers of the Corporation may be similarly indemnified in respect of service to the Corporation or to any Other Entity at the request of the Corporation to the extent the Board of Directors at any time specifies that such persons are entitled to indemnification, and the Corporation may enter into agreements with any such person for the purpose of providing for such indemnification. The Corporation shall not be liable to indemnify any indemnitee under this Article V for any amounts paid in settlement of any action or claim effected without the Corporation’s written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, or for any judicial award if the Corporation was not given a reasonable and timely opportunity, at its expense, to participate in the defense of such action. Any director or officer of the Corporation serving as a director, officer, trustee or in any other fiduciary capacity for (i) another corporation of which a majority of the shares entitled to vote in the election of its directors is held, directly or indirectly, by the Corporation or (ii) any employee benefit plan of the Corporation or any corporation referred to in clause (iii) of this sentence shall be deemed to be doing so at the request of the Corporation.

 

Section 3.                   Reimbursement and Advancement of Expenses. The Corporation shall, from time to time, reimburse or advance to any current or former director or officer the funds

 

14



 

necessary for payment of expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in investigating, responding to, defending or testifying in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative in nature, to which such person becomes or is threatened to be made a party by reason of the fact that such person is or was, or is alleged to have been, a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was, or is alleged to have been, serving at the request of the Corporation as a director or officer or in any other fiduciary capacity of or for any Other Entity; provided, however, that the Corporation may pay such expenses in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding only upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation against such expenses as authorized by this Article V. Expenses may be similarly advanced or reimbursed to persons who are and were not directors or officers of the Corporation in respect of their service to the Corporation or to any Other Entity at the request of the Corporation to the extent the Board of Directors at any time determines that such persons should be so entitled to advancement or reimbursement of such expenses, and the Corporation may enter into agreements with such persons for the purpose of providing such advances or reimbursement.

 

Section 4.                   Insurance. The Corporation shall have the power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of any Other Entity against any liability asserted against such person or incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such,

 

15



 

whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under the provisions of this Article V or otherwise.

 

Section 5.                   Subrogation. In the event of payment under this Article V, the Corporation shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of the indemnitee, who shall execute all papers required and shall do everything that may be necessary to secure such rights, including the execution of such documents necessary to enable the Corporation effectively to bring suit to enforce such rights.

 

Section 6.                   Preservation of Other Rights. The rights to indemnification and reimbursement or advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article V shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which a person seeking indemnification or reimbursement or advancement of expenses may have or hereafter be entitled under any statute, the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws, any agreement, any vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his or her official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office.

 

Section 7.                   Survival. The rights to indemnification and reimbursement or advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article V shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer (or other person indemnified hereunder) and shall inure to the benefit of the executors, administrators, legatees and distributees of such person. The provisions of this Article V shall be a contract between the Corporation, on the one hand, and each person who was a director and officer at any time while this Article V is in effect and any other person indemnified hereunder, on the other hand, pursuant to which the Corporation and each such person intend to be legally bound. No repeal or modification of this

 

16



 

Article V shall affect any rights or obligations hereunder with respect to any action or omission of any such person occurring, or any state of facts then existing, before such repeal or modification, regardless of whether a claim arising out of such action, omission or state of facts is asserted before or after such repeal or amendment.

 

Section 8.                   Enforceability of Right to Indemnification. The rights to indemnification and reimbursement or advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article V shall be enforceable by any person entitled to such indemnification or reimbursement or advancement of expenses in any court of competent jurisdiction. The burden of proving that such indemnification or reimbursement or advancement of expenses is not appropriate shall be on the Corporation. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, its independent legal counsel and its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that such indemnification or reimbursement or advancement of expenses is proper in the circumstances nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, its independent legal counsel and its stockholders) that such person is not entitled to such indemnification or reimbursement or advancement of expenses shall constitute a defense to the action or create a presumption that such person is not so entitled. Such a person shall also be indemnified by the Corporation against any expenses reasonably incurred in connection with successfully establishing his or her right to such indemnification or reimbursement or advancement of expenses, in whole or in part.

 

Section 9.                   Election of Applicable Law. Any person entitled to be indemnified or to reimbursement or advancement of expenses as a matter of right pursuant to this Article V may elect to have the right to indemnification or reimbursement or advancement of expenses

 

17



 

interpreted on the basis of the applicable law in effect at the time of the occurrence of the event or events giving rise to the applicable action, suit or proceeding, to the extent permitted by law, or on the basis of the applicable law in effect at the time such indemnification or reimbursement or advancement of expenses is sought. Such election shall be made, by a notice in writing to the Corporation, at the time indemnification or reimbursement or advancement of expenses is sought; provided, however, that if no such notice is given, the right to indemnification or reimbursement or advancement of expenses shall be determined by the law in effect at the time indemnification or reimbursement or advancement of expenses is sought.

 

ARTICLE VI.

CERTIFICATES OF STOCK

 

Section 1.                   Upon the request by any holder of stock of the Corporation, such holder will be entitled to have a certificate signed by, or in the name of the Corporation by, the Chairman or Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors, or the President or a Vice President, and by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary, or the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer of the Corporation, certifying the number of shares represented by the certificate owned by such stockholder in the Corporation.

 

Section 2.                   Any or all of the signatures on the certificate may be a facsimile or other electronic copy.  In case any officer, transfer agent, or registrar who has signed or whose facsimile or electronic signature has been placed upon a certificate shall have ceased to be such officer, transfer agent, or registrar before such certificate is issued, it may be issued by the Corporation with the same effect as if he were such officer, transfer agent, or registrar at the date of issue.

 

18



 

Section 3.                   If the Corporation shall be authorized to issue more than one class of stock or more than one series of any class, the powers, designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights of each class of stock or series thereof and the qualification, limitations or restrictions of such preferences and/or rights shall be set forth in full or summarized on the face or back of the certificate which the Corporation shall issue to represent such class or series of stock, provided that, except as otherwise provided in Section 202 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware, in lieu of the foregoing requirements, there may be set forth on the face or back of the certificate which the Corporation shall issue to represent such class or series of stock, a statement that the Corporation will furnish without charge to each stockholder who so requests the powers, designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights of each class of stock or series thereof and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such preferences and/or rights.

 

Section 4.                   The Board of Directors may direct a new certificate or certificates to be issued in place of any certificate or certificates theretofore issued by the Corporation alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming the certificate of stock to be lost, stolen or destroyed.  When authorizing such issue of a new certificate or certificates, the Board of Directors may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate or certificates, or his legal representative, to advertise the same in such manner as it shall require and/or to give the Corporation a bond in such sum as it may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Corporation with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

 

19



 

Section 5.                   Upon surrender to the Corporation, or the transfer agent of the Corporation, of a certificate for shares duly endorsed or accompanied by proper evidence of succession, assignation or authority to transfer, the Corporation shall issue a new certificate to the person entitled thereto, cancel the old certificate and record the transaction upon its book.

 

Section 6.                   In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of the stockholders, or any adjournment thereof, or to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board of Directors may fix a record date which shall not be more than sixty nor less than ten days before the date of such meeting, nor more than sixty days prior to any other action.  A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.

 

Section 7.                                           The Corporation shall be entitled to treat the holder of record of any share or shares of stock as the holder in fact thereof and accordingly shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim or interest in such share on the part of any other person, whether or not it shall have express or other notice thereof, save as expressly provided by the laws of the State of Delaware.

 

20



 

ARTICLE VII.

21

22



 

conferred upon the Board of Directors by the Certificate of Incorporation, it shall not divest or limit the power of the stockholders to adopt, amend or repeal Bylaws.
