(“PrimaLoft”), which such agreement is further described in Item 8.01 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. A copy of the Press Release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

A live webcast of the conference call along with the investor presentation will be available to the public through links on the Investor Relations section of Compass Diversified’s web site (compassdiversified.com).

Section 8     Other Events
Item 8.01    Other Events
Compass Diversified and Compass Group Diversified Holdings LLC (the “Company” and, together with Compass Diversified, collectively “CODI,” “us” or “we”) acquires and manages small to middle market businesses in the ordinary course of its business. The following description relates to the recent execution of a definitive agreement for the acquisition of one such business.
PrimaLoft
On June 4, 2022, a newly formed indirect subsidiary of the Company, Relentless Intermediate, Inc. (“Buyer”), entered into Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with VP PrimaLoft Holdings, LLC (“Seller”), pursuant to which Buyer will acquire all of the issued and outstanding equity of PrimaLoft, other than the Rollover Shares (as defined below). Buyer will acquire PrimaLoft and its subsidiaries for an enterprise value of $530 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments based on matters such as the working capital, indebtedness, unpaid expenses and cash balances at the time of the closing. The Company expects to fund the purchase price with an approximately $495 million draw on its revolving credit facility.
Prior to closing certain equity holders of the Seller will have a portion of their equity in Seller redeemed in exchange for equity of PrimaLoft in order to facilitate a rollover of such PrimaLoft equity (the “Rollover Shares”) into Relentless Topco, Inc., the parent of Buyer (“TopCo”). Following such rollover, TopCo will contribute the Rollover Shares to Buyer. Certain other members of PrimaLoft management will contribute cash in exchange for equity in Topco. Upon consummation of the transaction contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, CODI will directly own approximately 91% of TopCo, which will in turn own all of issued and outstanding equity interests of PrimaLoft.
Buyer will obtain a buy-side representation and warranty insurance policy and, other than in the case of fraud, such policy will be Buyer’s sole remedy with respect to breaches of representations and warranties made to Buyer.
The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants. Each party’s obligation to consummate the Purchase Agreement is subject to certain conditions, including, but not limited to (i) subject to certain exceptions, the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the other party, (ii) performance in all material respects by the other party of its covenants and agreements, (iii) the absence of any action or order issued by any governmental entity preventing consummation of the transaction and (iv) the expiration or termination of all applicable waiting periods under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended. Buyer’s obligation to consummate the Purchase Agreement is also subject to (i) there being no material adverse effect occurring prior to closing and (ii) certain employees of PrimaLoft complying with their respective restrictive covenant agreements. The transaction is expected to close in July 2022, but there can be no assurances that all of the conditions to closing will be satisfied.


The Company has delivered to the Seller a fully executed limited guaranty in favor of the Seller as of the date hereof with respect to certain of Buyer’s obligations under the Purchase Agreement.
The foregoing brief description of the Purchase Agreement is not meant to be exhaustive and is qualified in its entirety by the Purchase Agreement itself, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
