Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement, Completion of Acquisition or Disposition o
On October 24, 2008, Langer, Inc. (the "Company"), in connection with the sale of substantially all of the operating assets relating to its "Langer" branded custom orthotic and related products business (the "Transferred Business"), entered into Amendment No. 4 (the "Amendment") of its Loan and Security Agreement ("Loan Agreement") with Wachovia Bank, National Association ("Wachovia"), originally dated as of May 11, 2007. The Amendment provides for a decrease of the maximum amount the Company may borrow under the Loan Agreement to $12,000,000 from $15,000,000. The Amendment also provides for Wachovia's consent to the sale by the Company of the Transferred Business pursuant to the asset purchase agreement dated October 24, 2008, by and between the Company and Langer Acquisition Corp., as described below.
A copy of the Amendment is attached to this report as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference as though fully set forth herein. The foregoing summary description of the Amendment is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the complete text of the Amendment.
On October 24, 2008, the Company completed the sale of the Transferred Business to Langer Acquisition Corp. (the "Buyer") pursuant to the terms of the asset purchase agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") dated October 24 2008, by and between the Company and the Buyer for a purchase price of approximately $4.68 million, of which $475,000 will be held in escrow pursuant to the terms of an escrow agreement by and among the Company, the Buyer and The Bank of New York Mellon. The purchase price will be subject to a post-closing working capital adjustment within approximately 90 days to the extent that the assets included within the Transferred Business, as reflected on the closing date balance sheet of the Transferred Business, are less or more than approximately $1.3 million on the closing date. The consideration described above was determined based upon arms-length negotiations between the parties to the Purchase Agreement. Net proceeds to the Company including transaction costs are expected to be approximately $4.1 million.
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company is also making certain representations and warranties regarding Transferred Business, providing limited indemnification protection and agreeing to certain non-competition provisions and other agreements.
The Company will continue to exist as a corporate entity and its ongoing business will include that of its wholly-owned subsidiaries Silipos Inc. and Twincraft Inc. In connection with this sale transaction, the Company has agreed to seek a change of its corporate name no later then its next annual shareholders meeting.
The Company expects to recognize a minimal gain on the sale of the Transferred Business.
On October 27, 2008, the Company issued a press release announcing the sale of the Transferred Business pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this current report.
On October 22, 2008, the Company received notification that as of October 16, 2008, the NASDAQ Stock Market ("NASDAQ"), due to recent extraordinary market conditions, has suspended, for a three month period, the enforcement of the rules requiring listed companies to maintain a minimum $1.00 per share closing bid price and a $5 million minimum market value of publicly held shares. As previously disclosed on October 3, 2008, the Company had received two deficiency letters from the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Department notifying the Company that it was deficient in meeting these continued listing requirements.
As a result of NASDAQ'S suspension of these continued listing requirements, the Company will now be provided: (i) until April 7, 2009 to regain compliance with the $5 million minimum market value requirement; and (ii) until July 6, 2009 to regain compliance with the minimum $1.00 price per share requirement. There can be no guarantee that the Company will be able to regain compliance with these NASDAQ continued listing requirements.
If our common stock were delisted, the delisting may have an adverse impact on the price of our shares of common stock, the volatility of the price of our shares, and/or the liquidity of an investment in our shares of common stock.
