NOTE 18: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Effective July 1, 2016 we entered into a definitive agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Alpha Holding, S.A. de C.V. (“AlphaCredit”), pursuant to which AlphaCredit will acquire Grupo Finmart ("Acquired Interests"). The aggregate base purchase price for the Acquired Interests is $50.0 million, subject to adjustments. Certain minority holders will have the option to retain their equity interest in Grupo Finmart by entering into a shareholder agreement negotiated with the buyers, in which case the portion of the purchase price attributable to such equity interests would be retained by the buyers.
Subject to certain escrow amounts, the adjusted purchase price is payable in cash at closing, unless AlphaCredit does not have financing in place at the time the closing conditions have been satisfied, in which case $25.0 million of the purchase price payable to the Company will be deferred. If the deferred payment is utilized, the deferred purchase price payable to the Company will be increased from $25.0 million to $33.1 million and will be payable in full on the first anniversary of the closing, with certain quarterly payments due.
At the closing of the transaction, the intercompany indebtedness owed by Grupo Finmart to certain wholly owned subsidiaries of EZCORP will be restructured into two notes issued by Grupo Finmart and guaranteed by AlphaCredit. Each note will provide for quarterly interest payments and annual principal installments over three years. The note governing the existing Mexican Peso denominated intercompany debt of $8.5 million as of June 30, 2016 will be payable in Mexican Pesos at a 7.5% per annum interest rate, and the note governing the existing U.S. Dollar denominated intercompany debt of $40.2 million as of June 30, 2016 will be payable in U.S. Dollars at a 4% per annum interest rate. The principal balance of these notes will generally be repaid on a schedule approximating 30% during year one, 40% during year two and 30% during year three. Any funding provided by EZCORP or its affiliates to Grupo Finmart between signing and closing will be added to the principal amount of the U.S. Dollar denominated note.
The Purchase Agreement contains provisions granting AlphaCredit and the Company the right to terminate the Purchase Agreement for certain reasons, including, among others, if the closing does not occur on or before September 30, 2016. If all conditions have been satisfied by such time other than approval of the transaction by the Mexican Comisión Federal de Competencia (Federal Competition Commission), then such date will be automatically extended to October 31, 2016.
