(“Allied” or the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, previously conducted a multinational defense business focused on the manufacture and sale of ammunition and ammunition related products for use by the U.S. and foreign governments. Allied’s business was conducted by its two wholly-owned subsidiaries: MECAR sprl, formerly Mecar S.A. (“Mecar”), and ADG Sub USA, Inc., formerly Mecar USA, Inc. (“Mecar USA”). Plan of Dissolution and Liquidation On June 24, 2010, the Company signed a definitive purchase and sale agreement (the “Agreement”) with Chemring Group PLC (“Chemring”) pursuant to which Chemring agreed to acquire substantially all of the assets of the Company for $59,560 in cash and the assumption of certain liabilities. On September 1, 2010, the Company completed the asset sale to Chemring contemplated by the Agreement. Pursuant to the Agreement, Chemring acquired all of the capital stock of Mecar for approximately $45,810 in cash, and separately Chemring acquired substantially all of the assets of Mecar USA for $13,750 in cash and the assumption by Chemring of certain specified liabilities of Mecar USA. A portion of the purchase price was paid through the repayment of certain intercompany indebtedness owed to the Company that would otherwise have been cancelled at closing. $15,000 of the proceeds of the sale was deposited into escrow to secure the Company’s indemnification obligations under the Agreement. In conjunction with the Agreement, the Board of Directors of the Company unanimously approved the dissolution of the Company pursuant to a Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution (“Plan of Dissolution”). The Company’s stockholders approved the Plan of Dissolution on September 30, 2010. In response to concerns of certain of the Company’s stockholders, the Company agreed to delay the filing of a certificate of dissolution with the Delaware Secretary of State. The Company filed a certificate of dissolution with the Delaware Secretary of State on August 31, 2011. In connection with this filing, our stock transfer agent has ceased recording transfers of our stock and our stock is no longer publicly traded. falsefalsefalsenonnum:textBlockItemTypenaThe entire disclosure for organization, consolidation and basis of presentation of financial statements disclosure.Reference 1: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name FASB Interpretation (FIN) -Number 46R -Paragraph 4, 14, 15 -LegacyDoc This reference is SUPERSEDED by the Accounting Standards Codification effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009.
