Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Acquisition of ASW Steel

On November 1, 2016, Ampco UES Sub, Inc. (the “Purchaser”), a Delaware corporation and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Ampco-Pittsburgh Corporation, a Pennsylvania corporation (“Ampco”), entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with ASW Steel Inc., a company organized and existing under the laws of Ontario, Canada (“ASW Steel”), CK Pearl Fund, Ltd., CK Pearl Fund LP, and White Oak Strategic Master Fund, L.P., (each a “Seller,” and collectively the “Sellers”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Purchaser agreed to acquire from the Sellers all of the outstanding equity of ASW Steel (the “Acquisition”). ASW Steel is engaged in the business of specialty steel production by offering a unique combination of carbon, stainless, and other steel making capabilities.

The Acquisition was closed simultaneously with the signing of the Purchase Agreement on November 1, 2016 (the “Closing”) for an aggregate consideration of $13,115,650, consisting of $3,500,000 in cash and $9,615,650 in the assumption of outstanding indebtedness. The Acquisition was financed with cash on hand.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the Purchaser and the Sellers. Each party has agreed to various customary covenants and agreements. The Purchase Agreement also provides that the Sellers will indemnify the Purchaser for certain limited liabilities associated with the Sellers. The parties’ respective indemnification obligations are subject to various limitations, including, among other things, deductibles, caps, and time limitations.

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Purchase Agreement, which is incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 2.1. The Purchase Agreement has been included as an exhibit hereto solely to provide investors and security holders with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to be a source of financial, business, or operational information about the Purchaser or the Sellers. The representations, warranties, and covenants contained in the Purchase Agreement are made only for purposes of the Purchase Agreement and are made as of specific dates; are solely for the benefit of the parties; may be subject to qualifications and limitations agreed upon by the parties in connection with negotiating the terms of the Purchase Agreement, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purpose of allocating contractual risk between the parties rather than establishing matters as facts; and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors or security holders. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties, and covenants may change after the date of the Purchase Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in public disclosures.

Amendment to Credit Agreement

On October 31, 2016, Ampco and its subsidiaries Air & Liquid Systems Corporation, Union Electric Steel Corporation, Alloys Unlimited and Processing, LLC, Akers National Roll Company, Union Electric Steel UK Limited, and Åkers Sweden AB (collectively the “Corporation”), entered into a First Amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Corporation’s Revolving Credit and Security Agreement, dated May 20, 2016, with certain lenders, the guarantors party thereto, PNC Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, and the other agents party thereto (collectively, the “Credit Agreement”).

 

1


Pursuant to the Amendment, the Credit Agreement was amended to, among other things: (i) permit, commencing on October 31, 2016 and ending on the date on which ASW Steel becomes a borrower under the Credit Agreement, intercompany loans made to ASW Steel not to exceed the aggregate dollar amount of $7,500,000 at any time outstanding and (ii) increase the amount of loans, advances, and investments permitted to be made to certain of Ampco’s subsidiaries that are not parties to the Credit Agreement (excluding ASW Steel) from $2,500,000 to $5,000,000.

The foregoing description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, which is incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 10.1.

 

Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

The information set forth in Item 1.01 is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

The description of the terms of the Amendment set forth above in Item 1.01 is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.

 

Item 8.01. Other Events.

On November 1, 2016, Ampco issued a press release announcing the Acquisition. A copy of the press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

The information in this Item 8.01, including the information in Exhibit 99.1 hereto, is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for any purpose, including for the purpose of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section.

(a) For purposes of this Article 6, a party against which indemnification may be sought is referred to as the “Indemnifying Party” and the party which may be entitled to indemnification is referred to as the “Indemnified Party.”

(b) The obligations of Indemnifying Parties under this Article 6 with respect to Losses arising from claims of any third party which are subject to the indemnification provided for in this Article 6 (“Third Party Claims”) shall be governed by and contingent upon the following additional terms and conditions: if an Indemnified Party shall receive notice of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall promptly give all Indemnifying Parties notice of such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not release an Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article 6 except to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure. The notice of claim shall describe in reasonable detail the facts known to the Indemnified Party giving rise to such indemnification claim, and the amount or good faith estimate of the amount arising therefrom.

(c) If the Indemnifying Party acknowledges in writing its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party hereunder against any Losses that may result from such Third Party Claim, then the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume and control the defense of such Third Party Claim at its expense and through counsel of its choice if the Indemnifying Party gives notice of its intention to do so to the Indemnified Party within fifteen (15) days of the receipt of such notice from the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party may participate in any such proceeding with counsel of its choice and at its expense. In the event that the Indemnifying Party exercises the right to undertake any such defense against any such Third Party Claim as provided above, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, all witnesses, pertinent records, materials, and information in the Indemnified Party’s possession or under the Indemnified Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party. Similarly, in the event the Indemnified Party is conducting the defense against any such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with the Indemnified Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnified Party, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, all such witnesses, records, materials and information in the Indemnifying Party’s possession or under the Indemnifying Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party must obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which will not be unreasonably withheld) prior to (i) ceasing to defend any Third Party Claim or (ii) entering into any settlement of any Third Party Claim if such settlement involves (A) a finding or admission of wrongdoing by the Indemnified Party, (B) does not include an unconditional written release by the claimant or plaintiff of the Indemnified Party from all liability in respect of such claim or (C) imposes equitable remedies or any obligation on the Indemnified Party other than solely the payment of money damages.

 

31


(d) Any claim by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice thereof. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) calendar days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such thirty (30) day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

6.06 Manner of Payment. Indemnification of any Purchaser Indemnitee or any Seller Indemnitee with respect to both Third Party Claims and Direct Claims pursuant to this Article 6 shall be effected by wire transfer of immediately available funds (the “Indemnification Amount”) from the applicable persons to an account designated in writing by the applicable Purchaser Indemnitee or the Seller Indemnitee, as the case may be, within fifteen (15) calendar days after the determination thereof.

6.07 Liability of the Company. After the Closing, the Company shall not have any Liability to any of the Sellers for any breach of any representation or warranty made by any of the Sellers or the Company to the Purchaser in this Agreement, in any certificate or document furnished in connection with this Agreement by any of the Sellers, the Company or any other agreement contemplated hereby to which any of the Sellers or the Company or any Affiliate of any of the Sellers or the Company is or is to become a party.

6.08 Interest. All damages owed hereunder shall accrue interest at the prime rate as reported by the Wall Street Journal, plus three (3) percent from the date such damages occurred to the date of payment, and such interest shall be paid at the time of payment of such damages.

6.09 Purchase Price Adjustments. Any amounts payable under Section 6.02 and Section 6.03 shall be treated by the Purchaser and the Sellers as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

6.10 Special Rule for Fraud. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby to the contrary, in no event shall any limitation or restriction on any rights or remedies set forth in this Agreement limit or restrict the rights or remedies of any Purchaser Indemnitee for fraud by any of the Sellers, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates or representatives arising out of the Contemplated Transactions.

6.11 Representations, Warranties, and Covenants. Any limitation or qualification set forth in any one representation and warranty in this Agreement shall not limit or

 

32


qualify any other representation and warranty in this Agreement, and any breach or non-breach of any one representation and warranty in this Agreement shall not determine whether there is a breach or non-breach of any other representation and warranty in this Agreement. The right to indemnification under this Article 6 or any other remedy based on the breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty in this Agreement, or breach of, or noncompliance with, any covenant or obligation in this Agreement will not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date, with respect to, any such representation, warranty covenant or obligation. The waiver of any condition based upon the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any covenant or obligation, will not affect the right to indemnification, reimbursement or other remedy based upon such representations, warranties, covenants and obligations.

7.06 Amendment and Waiver; Cumulative Effect. To be effective, any amendment or waiver under this Agreement must be in writing and signed by the Party against whom enforcement of the same is sought. Neither the failure of any Party to exercise any right, power or remedy provided under this Agreement or to insist upon compliance by any other Party with its obligations under this Agreement, nor any custom or practice of the Parties at variance with the terms of this Agreement, shall constitute a waiver by such Party of its right to exercise any such right, power or remedy or to demand such compliance. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) no claim or right arising out of this Agreement or any of the documents referred to in this Agreement can be discharged by one Party, in whole or in part, by a waiver or renunciation of the claim or right unless in writing signed by the other Party, (b) no waiver that may be given by a Party will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given, and (c) no notice to or demand on one Party will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of that Party or of the right of the Party giving such notice or demand to take further action without notice or demand as provided in this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement. The rights and remedies of the Parties are cumulative and not exclusive of the rights and remedies that they otherwise might have now or hereafter at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.

7.07 Exclusive Remedy. Except for any injunctive relief and specific performance as provided in Section 7.08 and 5.03, and except in the case of fraud or intentional misrepresentation, the sole and exclusive remedy for each Party for any obligations or liabilities arising under, or related to, this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions shall be limited to the remedies set forth in Article 6 of this Agreement.

 

41


7.08 Specific Performance. Each of the Company and the Purchaser and the Sellers acknowledge that the rights of each Party to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby are unique and recognize and affirm that in the event of a breach of this Agreement by any Party, money damages may be inadequate and the non-breaching Party may have no adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, the Parties agree that such non-breaching Party shall have the right, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing in their favor at law or in equity, to enforce their rights and the other Party’s obligations hereunder not only by an action or actions for damages but also by an action or actions for specific performance, injunctive or other equitable relief (without posting of bond or other security).

7.09 Cumulative Rights and Remedies. The rights to indemnification of the Parties under this Agreement are independent, several, cumulative and non-exclusive and are in addition to the other rights and remedies that the Parties may have in law or equity.

7.10 Schedules. The disclosures in the Schedules attached hereto, Sellers’ Disclosure Schedule and the Company Disclosure Schedule, and those in any supplement to such schedules, relate only to the representations and warranties in the Section of this Agreement to which they expressly refer and not to any other representation or warranty in this Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency between the statements in this Agreement and those in the Schedules attached hereto, Sellers’ Disclosure Schedule, or the Company Disclosure Schedule, the statements in this Agreement will control.

7.11 Parties in Interest. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each Party hereto, and except as expressly set forth herein, nothing in this Agreement is intended to or shall confer upon any other person any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement, but, for the avoidance of doubt, than Sections 6.02 and 6.03 are intended to be for the benefit of the persons covered thereby and may be enforced by such persons.

7.12 Governing Law; Consent to Exclusive Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the Province of Ontario without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof.

7.13 Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the Parties hereto hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law any right it may have to a trial by jury with respect to any Action directly or indirectly arising out of, under or in connection with, this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions. Each of the Parties hereto (a) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of any other Party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other Party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce that foregoing waiver and (b) acknowledges that it and the other Parties hereto have been induced to enter into this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions, as applicable, by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 7.13.

7.14 Headings. The descriptive headings contained in this Agreement, the Schedules, the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedule, and the Company Disclosure Schedule are included for convenience of reference only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

13. This First Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the courts of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania sitting in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania and the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania with respect to any suit arising out of or relating to this First Amendment.
