Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Arrangement Agreement

On January 20, 2015, Radiant Logistics, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) entered into an arrangement agreement (the "Arrangement Agreement") with Wheels Group Inc., a corporation incorporated under the laws of Ontario ("Wheels"), pursuant to which our newly formed indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary ("Acquisition Sub") will acquire all of the outstanding common shares of Wheels (the "Arrangement") for CAD$0.77 per common share (the “Arrangement Consideration”), which will be paid in cash or shares of our common stock (or a combination thereof) at the election of each Wheels’ shareholder. For Wheels’ shareholders electing to receive our shares as Arrangement Consideration, each share of our common stock will be valued at USD$4.25, which, after application of currency exchange rates, equates to an exchange ratio of  0.151384 of our shares of common stock for each common share of Wheels.

In connection with the Arrangement Agreement, we have entered into support arrangements, in the form of Voting, Consideration, Election and Lock-Up Agreements (each a "Voting Agreement") with certain officers, directors, and shareholders of Wheels who collectively own approximately 77.7% of the outstanding common stock of Wheels (collectively, the “Supporting Shareholders”). Pursuant to the Voting Agreements, the Supporting Shareholders have agreed, among other things, to certain allocations of their Arrangement Consideration, to certain restrictions on their ability to transfer shares issued by us as Arrangement Consideration, and to vote their shares in favor of the resolution to approve the Arrangement, all as set forth in more detail below.

The share portion of the Arrangement Consideration is subject to proration so that the total amount of shares of our common stock issued in connection with the Arrangement (1) is a minimum of 4,540,254 shares, or approximately 13% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock, and (2) a maximum of 6,900,000 shares, or approximately 19% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The share portion of the Arrangement Consideration will be offered on a priority basis to Wheels’ shareholders that are not Supporting Shareholders, after which the remaining balance of shares, if any, will be allocated among the Supporting Shareholders.

Pursuant to the terms of the Arrangement Agreement, at the effective time of the Arrangement, all vested and unvested Wheels options outstanding at the effective time of the Arrangement will be cancelled in recognition that the exercise price of each outstanding option is substantially in excess of the value of the Arrangement Consideration, and the Wheels stock option plan will be terminated.  

The transaction is structured as a court-approved plan of arrangement pursuant to applicable Ontario corporate laws, and is subject to court approval.  We anticipate issuing our shares in connection with the Arrangement in reliance upon the exemptions from registration requirements pursuant to Section 3(a)(10) of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable exemptions under state securities laws.  Completion of the Arrangement is subject to various customary closing conditions, including, among others, (1) approval of the Arrangement by holders of at least 66 2/3% of the votes cast by Wheels’ shareholders at a special meeting, (2) the number of Wheels’ shareholders exercising dissent rights not exceeding 5% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Wheels, and (3) issuance by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice of a final order approving the Arrangement.

In the Arrangement Agreement, Wheels has agreed, among other things: (1) to conduct its business in the ordinary course during the period between the execution of the Arrangement Agreement and the consummation of the Arrangement; (2) to apply to the Ontario Superior Court of Justice for an order to approve the Arrangement; (3) to convene and hold a meeting of its shareholders to consider and vote upon the Arrangement; and (4) not to solicit alternative acquisition proposals and to certain restrictions on its ability to respond to any such proposals. We have agreed to various customary covenants and agreements, including not taking certain actions during the period between the execution of the Arrangement Agreement and the consummation of the Arrangement. The Arrangement Agreement also contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of us, Wheels and the Acquisition Sub.

After completion of the Arrangement, Bohn Crain, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, will lead the combined company. Dan Stegemoller will continue in his capacity as the Chief Operating Officer of the company’s forwarding operations. Tim Boyce, President of Wheels’ U.S. operations, will assume responsibility as the Chief Operating Officer for the combined company’s rail and truck brokerage operations, and Peter Jamieson, President of Wheels’ Canadian operations, will become the combined company’s Senior Vice President and Country Manager – Canada. In connection with the Arrangement, Doug Tozer, Wheels’ Chief Executive Officer, and Denise Messier, Wheels’ Vice President of Human Resources and Administration, have agreed to resign upon the effective time of the Arrangement.

The Arrangement Agreement contains certain termination rights for both us and Wheels and further provides that, upon termination by us under specified circumstances, Wheels may be required to pay to us a termination fee of USD$3.6 million (and up to an additional USD$1 million as reimbursement of our costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Arrangement Agreement). The Arrangement Agreement also provides that under specified circumstances where the termination fee is otherwise not payable, we or Wheels may be required to reimburse the other party for up to USD$1.0 million of out-of-pocket costs and expenses.


The representations and warranties of us, Wheels and Acquisition Sub contained in the Arrangement Agreement have been made solely for the benefit of the parties to the Arrangement Agreement. In addition, such representations and warranties (1) have been made only for purposes of the Arrangement Agreement, (2) may be subject to limits or exceptions agreed upon by the contracting parties, (3) are subject to materiality qualifications contained in the Arrangement Agreement which may differ from what may be viewed as material by investors, (4) were made only as of the dates specified in the Arrangement Agreement and (5) have been included in the Arrangement Agreement for the purpose of allocating risk between the contracting parties rather than establishing matters as facts. Investors should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company, Wheels or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. Additionally, the representations, warranties, covenants, conditions and other terms of the Arrangement Agreement may be subject to subsequent waiver or modification. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties and covenants may change after the date of the Arrangement Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in our or Wheels’ public disclosures.

The foregoing description of the Arrangement Agreement does not purport to be a complete description and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Arrangement Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Voting, Consideration Election and Lock-Up Agreements

In connection with the Arrangement Agreement, we entered into Voting Agreements with the Supporting Shareholders. Each Supporting Shareholder has agreed to vote its shares in favor of the Arrangement, to accept a specified portion Arrangement Consideration as shares of our common stock, and to refrain from transferring our shares of common stock issued as Arrangement Consideration for specific periods of time. Specifically, (1) certain  Supporting Shareholders, who hold approximately 55.3% of the outstanding Wheels common shares, pursuant to their Voting Agreements (each, a “Founder Voting Agreement”), have agreed to (A) accept 20% of the Arrangement Consideration as shares of our common stock and the remaining 80% as cash, and (B) refrain from transferring our shares of common stock issued pursuant to the Arrangement for one year, and (2) certain other Supporting Shareholders, who hold approximately 22.4% of the outstanding Wheels common shares, pursuant to their Voting Agreements (each, a “VRG Voting Agreement”), have agreed to (A) accept all of the Arrangement Consideration as shares of our common stock, and (B) refrain from transferring our shares of common stock issued pursuant to the Arrangement for 90 days with respect to 20% of our newly-issued shares and one year with respect to the remaining 80% of our newly-issued shares (subject in each case to the priority rights of Wheels’ shareholders that are not Supporting Shareholders to receive our common stock). The Voting Agreements contain certain termination rights for each of the parties thereto, and provide for automatic termination upon the termination of the Arrangement Agreement.

The foregoing description of the Founder Voting Agreements and VRG Voting Agreements does not purport to be a complete description and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the form of Founder Voting Agreement and VRG Voting Agreement, which are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.

Financing Commitment

On January 19, 2015, in connection with the Arrangement Agreement, we entered into a series of commitment letters for (1) a new USD$65.0 million senior secured revolving cross-border credit facility with Bank of America, N.A. (replacing our exiting USD$30.0 million facility), (2) a CAD$29.0 million senior secured Canadian term loan from Integrated Private Debt Fund IV LP, and (3) a USD$25.0 million subordinated secured term loan from Alcentra Capital Corporation and Triangle Capital Corporation. The proceeds of the foregoing facilities will be used to pay a portion of the Arrangement Consideration and for general corporate purposes, including potential future acquisitions. The commitments are subject to various conditions, including (1) the absence of a material adverse effect having occurred with respect to us and Wheels, (2) the negotiation of definitive documentation with respect to the credit facilities and term loan, (3) the consummation of the Arrangement, and (4) other customary closing conditions.

The foregoing description of the commitment letters does not purport to be a complete description and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of each of the commitment letters, which are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.3, 10.4 and 10.5, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This report and the exhibits hereto contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Actual results may differ significantly from management's expectations. Forward-looking statements include statements that are not historical facts and are generally, but not always, identified by the use of words such as "anticipate", "continue", "estimate", "expect", "expected", "intend", "may", "will", "project", "plan", "should", "believe" and similar expressions (including negative variations), These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that include, among others, risks discussed in our filings with the SEC and the following additional uncertainties and assumptions that relate to: continued relationships with our operating partners; challenges in locating suitable acquisition opportunities and securing the financing necessary to complete such acquisitions; general industry conditions and competition; domestic and international economic and political factors; transportation costs; our ability to mitigate, to the best extent possible, our dependence on current management and certain of our larger operating partners; laws and governmental regulations affecting the transportation industry in general and our operations in particular. In addition, our acquisition of Wheels is subject to additional risks and uncertainties, such as: our ability to close the acquisition, which involves a number of factors including our ability to secure the requisite court approval contemplated by the Plan of Arrangement, Wheels’ shareholder approval, the anticipated financing as contemplated by the commitment letters, and the satisfaction of other conditions to consummation of the transaction; the expected impact of the acquisition on our results of operations; fluctuations in the value of the Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar, particularly as we begin to generate additional revenue in Canada; our significantly increased levels of indebtedness as a result of the proposed transaction, which could limit our operating flexibility and opportunities; our ability to satisfy our obligations and meet required financial and other covenants necessary to maintain and draw funds from our credit facilities; our ability to realize the anticipated synergies and cost savings from the Wheels acquisition that we have projected, which contemplates, among other things, additional revenue opportunities, the elimination of costs associated with redundant operations, and the consolidation of facilities; our ability to maintain positive relationships with Wheels’ third-party transportation providers, suppliers and customers; our ability to retain and attract qualified personnel to operate the Wheels business; Wheels’ ability following the acquisition to maintain and grow its revenues and operating margins in a manner consistent with its most recent operating results and trends and our expectations regarding Wheels’ future growth; and unexpected costs, liabilities, charges or expenses resulting from the transaction. More information about factors that potentially could affect our financial results is included in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent filings. We disclaim any intention or obligation to update any forward-looking statement even if new information becomes available, as a result of future events or for any other reason. The forward-looking statements contained herein are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement.

Additional Information

None of the shares to be issued by us pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement have been or will be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act"), or any state securities laws, and any securities issued in the Arrangement are anticipated to be issued in reliance upon the exemptions from such registration requirements pursuant to Section 3(a)(10) of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable exemptions under state securities laws.  This report does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities.

The transfer of the Consideration Shares pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement will not obligate the Parent or the Purchaser to issue or transfer shares of common stock or other securities of the Parent or the Purchaser to any person except as contemplated in this Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement and will not result in a right of any holder of securities of the Parent or the Purchaser to adjust the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset of price under any of such securities.

The Parent’s management has completed an assessment of the effectiveness of the Parent’s internal controls over financial reporting in compliance with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for the year ended June 30, 2014, and such assessment concluded that such controls were effective and did not identify (i) any material weaknesses in its internal controls over financial reporting and (ii) any allegation of fraud that involves management of the Parent or any other employees of the Parent and the Parent Subsidiaries who have a significant role in the Parent’s internal controls over financial reporting or disclosure controls and procedures.

No audit, action, investigation, deficiency, litigation, proposed adjustment or other Proceeding exists or has been asserted or, to the knowledge of the Parent, threatened with respect to Taxes of the Parent or any of the Parent Subsidiaries. The Purchaser is a “taxable Canadian corporation” and not a “mutual fund corporation”, each within the meaning of the Tax Act.

(ii) Neither Parent nor any of the Parent Subsidiaries currently is the beneficiary of any extension of time within which to file any Tax Return. No written claim has been made within the past 3 years by an authority in a jurisdiction where the Parent or any of the Parent Subsidiaries does not file Tax Returns that Parent or any of the Parent Subsidiaries is or may be subject to taxation by that jurisdiction. There are no Liens for Taxes (other than Taxes not yet due and payable) upon any of the assets of Parent or any of the Parent Subsidiaries. Each of Parent and the Parent Subsidiaries has withheld and paid all Taxes required to have been withheld and paid in connection with amounts paid or owing to any employee, independent contractor, creditor, stockholder, or other third party, and all IRS Forms W-2 and 1099 required with respect thereto have been properly completed and timely filed. There is no material dispute or claim concerning any Tax liability of Parent or any of the Parent Subsidiaries claimed, raised or threatened by any authority.

The commitments described in the Commitment Letter are not subject to any condition precedent other than the conditions expressly set forth therein. There are no other agreements, side letters or arrangements that would permit the Lenders to reduce the amount of the Acquisition Financing or that would otherwise affect the availability of the Acquisition Financing. The Commitment Letter is in full force and effect, has not been amended, restated, modified, withdrawn, terminated or otherwise modified or varied and is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Parent and, to the knowledge of the Parent, the Lenders (subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), as applicable, no amendment or modification to the Commitment Letter is contemplated (provided that the Commitment Letter may be (or may have been) amended (i) to add lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents or similar entities who had not executed the Commitment Letter or (ii) otherwise so long as such amendment would not (A) reasonably be expected to delay or prevent the completion of the Arrangement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (B) for greater certainty, add any additional material condition precedent in respect of the availability of the commitments described in the Commitment Letter), and no event has occurred or circumstance exists, including the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would or would reasonably be expected to (x) constitute a default or breach on the part of the Parent under the Commitment Letter or (y) constitute or result in a failure to satisfy any condition precedent set forth in the Commitment Letter assuming satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.1 and Section 8.3. None of the commitments under the Commitment Letter have been withdrawn or rescinded. All commitment and other fees or expenses required to be paid under or in connection with the Commitment Letter on or prior to the date hereof have been paid. The Parent does not have any reason to believe that it shall be unable to satisfy on a timely basis any term or condition of closing of the Acquisition Financing to be satisfied by it contained in the Commitment Letter; is not aware of any existing fact, occurrence or condition that may cause the financing commitment contained in the Commitment Letter to terminate or be ineffective or any of the terms or conditions of closing of the Acquisition Financing not to be met or of any impediment to the funding of the cash payment obligations of the Parent pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement or the Arrangement; and is not aware of any existing fact, occurrence or condition that has or will cause the assumptions or statements set forth in the Commitment Letter to be untrue or incorrect. Assuming the Acquisition Financing contemplated in the Commitment Letter is funded, the net proceeds contemplated by the Commitment Letter, together with other funds available to the Parent and the Purchaser, shall be sufficient for the Purchaser to pay at the Effective Time in full the aggregate cash portion of the consideration for Company Shares and the aggregate amount payable pursuant to the Arrangement in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement and to pay all related fees and expenses for which the Purchaser or the Parent is responsible under the terms of the Agreement.

(ff) Working Capital . Following the consummation of the Arrangement, and taking into account the required Acquisition Financing, the Parent will have a Closing Date Working Capital that is sufficient to permit the Parent to conduct its business in the ordinary course and in a manner consistent with past practice without any requirement for additional financing.

Section 3.2(gg)(i) of the Parent Disclosure Letter contains a complete list of all Parent Plans. True, correct and complete copies of (I) the Parent Plans (or, in the case of any Parent Plans that are multi-employer plans, a summary of any material obligations of the Parent or any of the Parent Entities thereunder), (II) all determination letters from the IRS with respect to any of the Parent Plans, (III) all current summary plan descriptions and annual reports with respect to any of the Parent Plans, and (IV) all current trust agreements, insurance contracts and other documents relating to the funding or payment of benefits under any of the Parent Plans, are contained in the Parent Data Room.

(ii) Except as would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on the Parent, or except as set out in Section 3.2(gg)(ii) of the Parent Disclosure Letter:

A. all of the Parent Plans are and have been established, registered, qualified and, in all material respects, administered in accordance with (1) all applicable Laws, (2) the respective terms of such Parent Plans and (3) the terms of any agreements between the Parent or any of the Parent Entities, as the case may be, and their respective employees and former employees who are participants in the Parent Plans. There have been no non-exempt prohibited transactions (as described in Section 406 of ERISA) or breaches of any of the duties imposed on “fiduciaries” (within the meaning of Section 3(21) of ERISA) by ERISA with respect to the Parent Plans . The form or each Parent Plan intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has been determined by the IRS to be so qualified (or may rely on an opinion letter from the IRS issued in respect of the volume submitter or master and prototype plan document on which the Parent Plan is based), and, to the knowledge of the Parent, nothing has occurred that could reasonably be expected to give the IRS grounds to revoke such determination,

32


B. all contributions or premiums required to be made by the Parent or any of the Parent Entities, as the case may be, under the terms of each Parent Plan or by applicable Laws have been made in a timely fashion in accordance with applicable Laws and the terms of the Parent Plans,

C. each Parent Plan is insured or funded as may be required by applicable Law and in good standing with such Governmental Authorities as may be applicable and, as of the date hereof, no currently outstanding notice of under-funding, non-compliance, failure to be in good standing or otherwise has been received by the Parent or any of the Parent Entities from any such Governmental Authorities. No Parent Plan provides any non-pension post-retirement or post-employment benefits (except to the extent required by Sections 601 through 608 of ERISA and 4980B of the Code). To the knowledge of the Parent, no Parent Plan provides benefits to any individual who is not a current or former employee of the Parent or a Parent Entity, or the dependents or beneficiaries of any such current or former employee.

D. no Parent Plan is subject to any pending or, to the knowledge of the Parent, threatened investigation, examination, action, claim or other Proceeding initiated by any Governmental Authority or any other party, other than routine claims for benefits,

E. neither the Parent nor any member of the Parent’s Controlled Group sponsors, maintains or has any material liability (whether actual or contingent, with respect to any of its assets or otherwise) with respect to any current or former “defined benefit plan” as defined in Section 3(35) of ERISA, a pension plan subject to the funding standards of Section 302 of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code, a “multiemployer plan” as defined in Section 3(37) of ERISA or Section 414(f) of the Code or a “multiple employer plan” within the meaning of Section 210(a) of ERISA or Section 413(c) of the Code. Neither the Parent nor any member of the Parent’s Controlled Group has any liability under Title IV of ERISA (other than for premiums pursuant to Section 4007 of ERISA which have been timely paid) or Section 4971 of the Code, and, to the knowledge of the Parent, no condition exists that presents a risk to the Parent or any member of the Parent’s Controlled Group of incurring any such liability. Each Parent Plan (other than any multi-employer plan) to which Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA applies has satisfied the requirements of Sections 412, 430 and 436 of the Code and Sections 302 and 303 of ERISA, and no Parent Plan (other than any multi-employer plan) has a “funding shortfall” within the meaning of Section 430(c) of the Code or Section 303(c) of ERISA or is in “at-risk status” within the meaning of Section 430(i)(4) of the Code or Section 303(i)(4) of ERISA or subject to the limitations of Section 436 of the Code. No Parent Plan (other than any multi-employer plan) has an accumulated funding deficiency within the meaning of Section 302 of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code nor, to the knowledge of the Parent, has any waiver of the minimum funding standards of Section 302 of ERISA and Section 412 of the Code been requested of or granted by the IRS with respect to any Parent Plan (other than any multi-employer plan), nor has any Lien in favour of any Parent Plan arisen under Section 430(k) of the Code or Section 303(k) of ERISA. Neither the Parent nor any member of the Parent’s Controlled Group has been required to provide security to any defined benefit pension plan pursuant to Section 401(a)(29) of the Code or Section 306 or 307 of ERISA. With respect to each Parent Plan (other than any multi-employer plan) that is subject to Title IV or Section 302 of ERISA or Section 412 or 4971 of the Code, the fair market value of the assets of such Parent Plan equals or exceeds the actuarial present value of all accrued benefits under such Parent Plan (whether or not vested), based upon the actuarial assumptions used to prepare the most recent actuarial report for such Parent Plan, and no event has occurred which would be reasonably expected to change any such funded status. Since the date which is five years prior to the date of this Agreement, there has been no “reportable event” within the meaning of Section 4043 of ERISA and the regulations and interpretations thereunder, but excluding events for which the notice requirements is waived pursuant to applicable regulations, which has not been fully and accurately reported in a timely fashion, as required, or which, whether or not reported, would constitute grounds for the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation to institute termination proceedings with respect to any Parent Plan,

F. neither the Parent nor any of its affiliates with U.S. employees has prepaid or prefunded any welfare plan (as defined in the ERISA) through a trust, reserve, premium stabilization or similar account, nor does it provide benefits through a voluntary employee beneficiary association as defined in Section 501(c)(9) of the Code, and

G. Each Parent Plan that is a nonqualified deferred compensation plan has been operated since January 1, 2005 in good faith compliance with Section 409A of the Code and the guidance and regulations issued thereunder. No Parent Plan nonqualified deferred compensation plan that is intended to be grandfathered for purposes of Section 409A of the Code has been “materially modified” (within the meaning of United States IRS Notice 2005-1) at any time after October 3, 2004. No stock option or other right to acquire Parent or affiliate common stock or other equity of the Parent or any of its affiliates (A) has an exercise price that has been or may be less than the fair market value of the underlying equity as of the date such option or right was granted, as determined by the Board of Directors or a committee thereof or the board of directors or a committee thereof of such affiliate, as applicable, in good faith, (B) has any feature for the deferral of compensation other than the deferral of recognition of income until the later of exercise or disposition of such option or right or (C) has been granted after December 31, 2004 with respect to any class of stock or equity of the Parent or any of its affiliates that is not “service recipient stock” (within the meaning of applicable regulations under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Section 409A).

(kk) No Intermediary Transaction Tax Shelter . The Parent has no plan or intention to take any action with respect to the Company subsequent to the Closing that would cause the transactions contemplated hereby to constitute part of a transaction that is the same as, or substantially similar to, the “Intermediary Transaction Tax Shelter” described in Internal Revenue Service Notices 2001-16 and 2008-111.

(ll) No Other Representations or Warranties . The Company agrees that the Parent and the Purchaser have not made and are not making any representations or warranties whatsoever regarding the subject matter of this Agreement, express or implied, except as provided in this Section 3.2, and that it is not relying and has not relied on any representations or warranties whatsoever regarding the subject matter of this Agreement, express or implied, except for the representations and warranties in this Section 3.2.

3.3 Survival of Representations and Warranties

Article 5

ADDITIONAL COVENANTS

5.1 Pre-Acquisition Reorganization

(a) Subject to the provisions of this Section 5.1, the Company agrees that it will, and will cause the Company Entities to, upon the reasonable request of the Purchaser and at the expense of the Purchaser, use its and their commercially reasonable efforts to effect each of the pre-closing reorganization steps set forth on Section 5.1 of the Parent Disclosure Letter to this Agreement and, provided that the Purchaser provides a request to the Company at least 15 Business Days prior to the Company Meeting, such additional reasonable pre-closing reorganization steps the Purchaser may request, acting reasonably (the “ Pre-Acquisition Reorganization ”). The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Pre-Acquisition Reorganization shall not (a) impede, delay or prevent completion of the Arrangement (including by giving rise to Proceedings by any person), (b) in the opinion of the Company, acting reasonably, prejudice the Shareholders or the holders of Options in any material respect, (c) require the Company to obtain the approval of the Shareholders, (d) be considered in determining whether a representation, warranty or covenant of the Company hereunder has been breached, it being acknowledged by the Purchaser that actions taken pursuant to any Pre-Acquisition Reorganization could require the consent of third parties under applicable Contracts and Government Authorities, (e) require the Company or any Company Entity to contravene any applicable Laws, their respective organizational documents or any Company Material Contract, or (f) result in any Taxes being imposed on, or any adverse Tax or other adverse consequences to, any securityholder of the Company greater than the Taxes or other consequences to such party in connection with the consummation of the Arrangement in the absence of any Pre-Acquisition Reorganization. The Company and the Purchaser will, at the expense of the Purchaser, work cooperatively and use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare prior to the Effective Time all documentation necessary and do such other acts and things as are necessary to give effect to such Pre-Acquisition Reorganization, including incorporating, to the extent necessary, the steps of the Pre-Acquisition Reorganization into the Plan of Arrangement to the extent they are determined reasonably in advance of the mailing of the Circular. The Parties will seek to have the steps and transactions contemplated under any such Pre-Acquisition Reorganization made effective at such times (as directed by the Purchaser) on or prior to the Effective Date (but after the Purchaser will have waived or confirmed that all conditions referred to in Section 8.1, Section 8.2 and Section 8.3 have been satisfied), provided, however, that no such Pre-Acquisition Reorganization will be made effective unless: (A) it is reasonably certain, after consulting with the Company, that the Arrangement will become effective; and (B) such Pre-Acquisition Reorganization can be reversed or unwound in a timely fashion without adversely affecting the Company and the Company Entities in the event that the Arrangement does not become effective and this Agreement is terminated. If the Arrangement is not completed, the Parent will (a) forthwith reimburse the Company for all reasonable fees and expenses (including any professional fees and expenses) incurred by the Company and the Company Entities in considering and effecting any Pre-Acquisition Reorganization, and (b) be responsible for any costs of the Company and the Company Entities in reversing or unwinding any Pre-Acquisition Reorganization that was effected prior to the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms. The obligation of the Parent to reimburse the Company for fees and expenses and to be responsible for costs as set out in this Section 5.1 will be in addition to any other payment the Parent or the Purchaser may be obligated to make hereunder and will survive termination of this Agreement.

(b) The Parent shall indemnify and save harmless the Company and its subsidiaries from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, claims, costs, expenses, interest awards, judgments and penalties suffered or incurred by any of them in connection with or as a result for their co-operation or assistance with or participation in any Pre-Acquisition Reorganization. No director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or its subsidiaries shall be required to take any action in respect of a Pre-Acquisition Reorganization in any capacity other than as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or the Company Entities, as the case may be.

(c) The Parent and the Purchaser acknowledge and agree that the planning for and implementation of the Pre-Acquisition Reorganization shall not be considered a breach of any covenant under this Agreement and shall not be considered in determining whether a representation or warranty of the Company hereunder has been breached. The Parent, the Purchaser and the Company shall work cooperatively and use reasonable commercial efforts to prepare prior to the Effective Time all documentation necessary and do such other acts and things as are necessary to give effect to such Pre-Acquisition Reorganization and any post-closing reorganization. For greater certainty, the Company shall not be liable for the failure of the Parent or the Purchaser to benefit from any anticipated tax efficiency as a result of a Pre-Acquisition Reorganization or any planning or other steps taken with respect to any anticipated post-closing reorganization and the completion of any Pre-Acquisition Reorganization shall not be a condition to the completion of the Arrangement.

5.2 Access to Information

(a) Subject to compliance with applicable Laws and the terms of any existing Contracts, including any confidentiality obligations, each of the Company and the Parent will, and will cause its respective subsidiaries to, afford to the other and its Representatives, until the earlier of the Effective Time or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, continuing access to the Company Data Room or Parent Data Room, as the case may be, and reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice, to its respective businesses, properties, books and records and such other data and information as the other may reasonably request, as well as to their respective management personnel, subject, however, to such access not interfering with the ordinary

39


conduct of its businesses. Subject to compliance with applicable Laws, the terms of any existing Contracts, including any confidentiality obligations, and such requests not materially interfering with the ordinary conduct of the business of the Company and the Company Entities, the Company will also make available to the Purchaser and its Representatives all information reasonably requested by the Purchaser for the purposes of preparing, considering and implementing integration and strategic plans for the combined businesses of the Company and the Purchaser and its affiliates following completion of the Arrangement. Without limiting the generality of the provisions of the Non-Disclosure Agreement, each of the Parties acknowledges that all information provided to it under this Section 5.2(a), or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, is subject to the Non-Disclosure Agreement, which will remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any termination of this Agreement. If any provision of this Agreement otherwise conflicts or is inconsistent with any provision of the Non-Disclosure Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement will supersede those of the Non-Disclosure Agreement but only to the extent of the conflict or inconsistency and all other provisions of the Non-Disclosure Agreement will remain in full force and effect.

(b) Other than as may be required in respect of information requested by Governmental Authorities in connection with obtaining the Required Regulatory Approvals, nothing in this Section 5.2 or in any other provision of this Agreement will require the Company, the Company Entities or the Parent, or its respective subsidiaries, to disclose information if (i) such disclosure would violate a written confidentiality agreement with a third party or customer specific or competitively sensitive information after taking into account the Non-Disclosure Agreement, (ii) in the reasonable good faith judgment of such Party, any applicable Law requires such party or its subsidiaries to restrict or prohibit access to any such properties or information or (iii) disclosure of any such information or document would result in the loss of attorney-client privilege (“ Confidential Data ”). For greater certainty, until the Effective Time, access to and exchange of Confidential Data as between the Parties will be limited to what is reasonably necessary for the purposes of securing all necessary regulatory approvals, the preparation and settlement of definitive documents and the advancement of the Arrangement and will be limited such that the dissemination of Confidential Data will be confined to the Representatives of the Parties and their counsel who have a need to know such information for such purposes and who agree to respect such confidentiality in their dealings with Confidential Data. For the purpose of this Section 5.2(b), counsel to the Purchaser shall include counsel to the Parent.

5.3 Covenants of the Company Regarding the Arrangement

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company will perform all obligations required to be performed by the Company under this Agreement, cooperate with the Purchaser and the Parent in connection therewith, and use commercially reasonable efforts to do such other acts and things as may be necessary or desirable in order to complete the Arrangement and the other transactions contemplated hereby, including:

(c) using its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all necessary waivers, consents and approvals required to be obtained by the Company or the Company Entities from other parties to any Contracts in order to complete the Arrangement, including, without limitation, the Required Regulatory Approvals; provided , however , that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in connection with obtaining any waiver, consent or approval from any person (other than a Governmental Authority) with respect to any transaction contemplated by this Agreement, none of the Company or any of the Company Entities will be required to pay or commit to pay to such person whose waiver, consent or approval is being solicited any cash or other consideration, make any commitment or incur any liability or other obligation other than such fees or expenses contemplated by the terms of such Contract unless requested by the Purchaser;

(e) promptly advising the Purchaser of any requests by a Governmental Authority for any substantive meeting or discussion (whether in person, by telephone or otherwise) in respect of any filing, investigation or inquiry concerning the Arrangement and providing the Purchaser the opportunity to attend or have its Representatives attend and participate thereat (except to the extent that in any such case the Governmental Authority expressly requests that the Purchaser and its Representatives should not be present at the meeting or discussion or part or parts of the meeting or discussion);

5.4 Covenants of the Purchaser and the Parent Regarding the Arrangement

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of the Purchaser and the Parent will perform all obligations required to be performed by it under this Agreement, cooperate with the Company in connection therewith, and use commercially reasonable efforts to do such other acts and things as may be necessary or desirable in order to complete the Arrangement and the other transactions contemplated hereby, including:

(a) using its commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Company in, obtaining all Required Regulatory Approvals relating to the Purchaser or the Parent or relating to the Company or any of its subsidiaries which are customarily applied for by an offeree in transactions of this nature; provided that the Parent and the Parent Subsidiaries will not be required to make any applications of the Company under applicable Law, but will rather provide the Company with any information regarding the Purchaser, the Parent and the Parent Subsidiaries required for such applications made by, on behalf of, or jointly with the Company;

41


and to pay all related fees and expenses for which the Purchaser or the Parent is responsible under the terms of the Agreement.

Within three Business Days from the date hereof, the Company shall request the return or destruction of all information provided to any third parties who have entered into a confidentiality agreement with the Company relating to any potential Acquisition Proposal.

44


(c) The Company shall promptly (and, in any event, within 48 hours of receipt by the Company) notify the Purchaser, at first orally and then in writing, of any proposal, inquiry, offer or request relating to or constituting an Acquisition Proposal, or which could reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, in each case, received after the date hereof, of which any of its Representatives is or becomes aware, or any request received by the Company or any of its Representatives for non-public information relating to the Company or any of the Company Entities in connection with an Acquisition Proposal or for access to the properties, books and records or a list of securityholders of the Company or any of the Company Entities in connection with an Acquisition Proposal.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing part of this Section 6.1 or any other provision of this Agreement, following receipt by the Company of any proposal, inquiry, offer or request (or any amendment thereto) that is not an Acquisition Proposal but which the Company reasonably believes could lead to an Acquisition Proposal, the Company may respond to the proponent to advise it that, in accordance with this Agreement, the Company can only enter into discussions or negotiations with a party regarding an Acquisition Proposal in accordance with Section 6.2.

6.2 Right to Match

(a) Notwithstanding Section 6.1 or any other provision of this Agreement, if after the date hereof the Company or any of the Company Entities, or any of its or their respective Representatives, receives a written Acquisition Proposal (including, for greater certainty, an amendment, change or modification to an Acquisition Proposal made prior to the date hereof) that did not result from a breach of Section 6.1 by the Company or the Company Entities, the Company and its Representatives may:

(i) contact the person making such Acquisition Proposal and its Representatives solely for the purpose of clarifying the terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal and the likelihood of its consummation so as to determine whether such Acquisition Proposal is, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, a Superior Proposal; and

(ii) if the Board of Directors determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisors, that such Acquisition Proposal is, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, a Superior Proposal and that the failure to take the relevant action would conflict with its fiduciary duties, the Company, the Company Entities and their Representatives may:

A. furnish information with respect to the Company and the Company Entities to the person making such Acquisition Proposal and its Representatives provided that (1) the Company first enters into a confidentiality agreement with such person that is no less favourable to the Company than the Non-Disclosure Agreement, and sends a copy of such agreement to the Purchaser promptly following its execution, and (2) the Company promptly provides to the Purchaser any material non-public information concerning the Company or the Company Entities that is provided to such person which was not previously provided to the Purchaser, the Parent or their respective Representatives; and

B. engage in discussions and negotiations with respect to the Acquisition Proposal with the person making such Acquisition Proposal and its Representatives.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 6.1 or any other provision of this Agreement, the Company may, at any time after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Company Meeting, terminate this Agreement and accept, approve, recommend or enter into any agreement, understanding or arrangement in respect of an Acquisition Proposal (with the exception of a confidentiality and standstill agreement described in Section 6.2, the execution of which shall not be subject to the conditions of this Section 6.2 (b)) if and only if:

(i) such Acquisition Proposal did not result from a breach of Section 6.1 and the Company has complied with the other terms of this Section 6.2;

(ii) the Board of Directors has determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisors, that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes or could reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal and that the failure to take the relevant action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties;

(iii) the Company has (A) given written notice to the Purchaser of the determination of the Board of Directors that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal and that the Board of Directors intends to withdraw, modify, qualify or change in a manner adverse to the Purchaser or the Parent its approval or recommendation of the Arrangement (including the recommendation that the Shareholders vote in favour of the Arrangement Resolution) (the “ Superior Proposal Notice ”) and (B) provided the Purchaser with a copy of the document containing such Acquisition Proposal (together, if applicable, with a summary of the value that the Board of Directors has, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, determined should be ascribed to any non-cash consideration included in such Acquisition Proposal);

(iv) a period of least five full Business Days (such five Business Day Period, the “ Right to Match Period ”) shall have elapsed from the later of the date on which the Purchaser received the Superior Proposal Notice and the date on which the Purchaser received a copy of the documents referred to in clause (B) of Section 6.2(b)(iii), it being understood that the Right to Match Period shall expire at 12:00 p.m. (Toronto time) at the end of the fifth full Business Day following such later date;

45


(v) if the Purchaser and the Parent have offered to amend the terms of this Agreement and the Arrangement during the Right to Match Period pursuant to Section 6.2(c), the Board of Directors has determined, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisors, that such Acquisition Proposal continues to be a Superior Proposal when assessed against this Agreement and the Arrangement as they are proposed to be amended as at the termination of the Right to Match Period; and

(vi) the Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(i) and pays the Termination Payment pursuant to Section 7.2(e)(iii).

(c) During the Right to Match Period, the Purchaser and the Parent will have the opportunity, but not the obligation, to offer to amend the terms of this Agreement and the Arrangement. The Company agrees that, if requested by the Purchaser, it will negotiate with the Purchaser and the Parent in good faith to make such amendments to the terms of this Agreement and the Arrangement as would enable it to proceed with the transactions contemplated hereby on such amended terms. The Board of Directors will review in good faith any such offer made by the Purchaser and the Parent to amend the terms of this Agreement and the Arrangement in order to determine, as part of exercising its fiduciary duties, and in consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, whether such offer to amend the terms of this Agreement and the Arrangement would, upon its acceptance, result in the applicable Acquisition Proposal ceasing to be a Superior Proposal when assessed against this Agreement and the Arrangement as they are proposed to be amended as at the termination of the Right to Match Period. If the Board of Directors determines that the applicable Acquisition Proposal would cease to be a Superior Proposal when assessed against this Agreement and the Arrangement as they are proposed to be amended as at the termination of the Right to Match Period, the Company will forthwith so advise the Purchaser and the Parent and will promptly thereafter accept the offer by the Purchaser and the Parent to amend the terms of this Agreement and the Arrangement and the Parties agree to take such actions and execute such documents as are necessary to give effect to the foregoing.

(d) The Board of Directors shall reaffirm its recommendation in favour of the Arrangement by news release promptly after (A) any Acquisition Proposal that the Board of Directors determines not to be a Superior Proposal is publicly announced or made or (B) the Board of Directors determines that an Acquisition Proposal which previously constituted a Superior Proposal would cease to be a Superior Proposal when assessed against this Agreement and the Arrangement as they are proposed to be amended as at the termination of the Right to Match Period. The Purchaser shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the form and content of any such news release. Such news release shall state that the Board of Directors has determined that the applicable Acquisition Proposal is not a Superior Proposal.

(e) Each successive material amendment, change or modification to any Acquisition Proposal that results in an increase in, or modification of, the consideration (or value of such consideration) to be received by the Shareholders or other material terms and conditions thereof shall constitute a new Acquisition Proposal for the purposes of this Section 6.2 and shall result in the commencement of a new Right to Match Period from the date specified in Section 6.2(b)(iv) with respect to such new Acquisition Proposal. If the Company provides the Purchaser with a Superior Proposal Notice on a date that is less than five Business Days prior to the Company Meeting, the Company shall adjourn the Company Meeting to a date that is not later than the tenth Business Day following the first day of the Right to Match Period. The Company shall not be under any obligation to hold the Company Meeting following the termination of this Agreement.

(f) The Company shall ensure that each of the Company Entities, and each of its and their respective Representatives, is aware of the provisions of Section 6.1 and this Section 6.2 and the Company shall be responsible for any breach of Section 6.1 or this Section 6.2 by such persons.

subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 3.3(c) or Section 3.3(d), the maximum aggregate number of Radiant Shares to be issued pursuant to Section 3.1(c)(i) to the Locked-Up Shareholders and any Minority Shareholders who did not make an election pursuant to Section 3.2(a) shall be equal to 6,900,000 less the number of Radiant Shares to be issued pursuant to the Minority Shareholder Priority Elections (the “ Maximum Share Amount ”) and the minimum aggregate number of Radiant Shares to be issued to Shareholders pursuant Section 3.1(c)(i) shall be 4,540,254 Radiant Shares (the “ Minimum Share Amount ”);

(c)

if, prior to giving effect to this Section 3.3(c), the aggregate number of Radiant Shares elected or deemed to be elected by Locked-Up Shareholders in connection with the payment of the Total Per Common Share Consideration by way of the Share Consideration pursuant to Section 3.2 exceeds the Maximum Share Amount, then:

(d)

if, prior to giving effect to this Section 3.3(d), the aggregate number of Radiant Shares elected or deemed to be elected by Shareholders in connection with the payment of the Total Per Common Share Consideration pursuant to Section 3.2 is less than the Minimum Share Amount, then:

(i)

the percentage of the Total Per Common Share Consideration in respect of each Common Share transferred to the Purchaser by a Locked-Up Shareholder pursuant to Section 3.1(c)(i) to be paid in Share Consideration (the “ Deemed Minimum Share Election Percentage ”) shall be determined by multiplying (x) the percentage, rounded to six decimal places, of the Total Per Common Share Consideration elected or deemed to be elected in respect of such Common Share to be paid in Radiant Shares, as otherwise determined in accordance with Section 3.2 prior to giving effect to this Section 3.3(c) (the “ Actual Share Minimum Election Percentage ”) by (y) a fraction, rounded to six decimal places, the numerator of which is the Minimum Share Amount and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of Radiant Shares otherwise issuable to all Shareholders pursuant to Section 3.1(c)(i) prior to giving effect to this Section 3.3(d); and

Article 4

DISSENT RIGHTS

Section 4.1 Rights of Dissent

Pursuant to the Interim Order, each registered Shareholder may exercise rights of dissent (“ Dissent Rights ”) pursuant to and in the manner set forth in Section 185 of the OBCA, as modified by this Article 4 and the Interim Order; provided, however , that written objection to the Arrangement Resolution, in the manner contemplated by Subsection 185(6) of the OBCA, must be sent to and received by the Company by no later than 4:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the second Business Day immediately prior to the Company Meeting. Shareholders who duly exercise such rights of dissent and who:

(a)

are ultimately determined to be entitled to be paid by the Purchaser fair value for the Common Shares in respect of which they have exercised Dissent Rights will be deemed to have irrevocably transferred such Common Shares to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 3.1(b)(i) in consideration of such fair value; or

(b)

are ultimately not entitled, for any reason, to be paid by the Purchaser fair value for the Common Shares in respect of which they have exercised Dissent Rights will be deemed to have participated in the Arrangement on the same basis as a Shareholder who has not exercised Dissent Rights, as at and from the time specified in Section 3.1(c) and be entitled to receive only the consideration set forth in Section 3.1(c)(i) as determined in accordance with Section 3.2(d);

but in no case will the Company or the Purchaser or any other person be required to recognize such holders as holders of Common Shares after the completion of the steps set forth in Section 3.1(b) or Section 3.1(c), as the case may be, and each Dissenting Shareholder will cease to be entitled to the rights of a Shareholder in respect of the Common Shares in relation to which such Dissenting Shareholder has exercised Dissent Rights and the central securities register of the Company will be amended to reflect that such former holder is no longer the holder of such Common Shares as and from the Effective Time. For greater certainty, and in addition to any other restriction under Section 185 of the OBCA, a Shareholder who has voted, or instructed a proxyholder to vote, against the Arrangement Resolution shall not be entitled to exercise Dissent Rights with respect to the Arrangement.

(c)

Subject to Section 5.5, until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 5.1, each certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented Common Shares that were transferred to the Purchaser under Section 3.1(c)(i) will be thereafter deemed to represent only the right to receive (i) a cheque for the Cash Consideration, if any, the holder of such Common Shares is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 3.1(c)(i), and (ii) a certificate representing that number (rounded down to the nearest whole number) of Radiant Shares, if any, such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 3.1(c)(i), together with any distributions or dividends which such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 5.2, less, in the case of both clauses (i) and (ii), any amounts withheld pursuant to Section 5.6.

(e)

No former holder of Common Shares shall be entitled to receive any consideration with respect to such Common Shares other than the Cash Consideration and/or Share Consideration such former holder of Common Shares is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 5.1 and, for greater certainty, no such former holder will be entitled to receive any interest, dividends, premium or other payment in connection therewith except in accordance with Section 5.2.

(f)

The Purchaser will cause the Depositary, as soon as a former Optionholder becomes entitled to receive the payments contemplated by Section 3.1(a)(i), to forward or cause to be forwarded by first class mail (postage paid) to such former holder at the address specified in the applicable records of the Company, a cheque representing the cash payment payable to such former holder in accordance with the provisions hereof.

Section 5.2 Dividends and Distributions

No dividends or other distributions declared or made after the Effective Time with respect to the Radiant Shares with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding Common Shares that were transferred pursuant to Section 3.1(c)(i), and no cash payment constituting the Cash Consideration or made in lieu of fractional Radiant Shares shall be paid to any such holder pursuant to Section 5.3, unless and until the holder of such certificate shall surrender such certificate in accordance with Section 5.1 or Section 5.4. Subject to applicable law, at the time of such surrender of any such certificate (or, in the case of clause (iii) below, at the appropriate payment date), there shall be paid to the holder of the certificates representing Common Shares (without interest) (i) the amount of cash comprising the Cash Consideration, if any, such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 3.1(c)(i) or payable in lieu of a fractional Radiant Share to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 5.3, (ii) the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to the Radiant Shares to which such holder is entitled pursuant hereto and (iii) to the extent not paid under clause (ii), on the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to surrender and the payment date subsequent to surrender payable with respect to such Radiant Shares.

Section 5.3 Fractional Shares

In no event shall any holder of Common Shares be entitled to a fractional Radiant Share. Where the aggregate number of Radiant Shares to be issued to a holder of Common Shares as consideration under this Arrangement would result in a fraction of a Radiant Share being issuable, the number of Radiant Shares to be received by such holder shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Radiant Share, as the case may be, and, in lieu of a fractional Radiant Share, the holder will receive a cash payment in Canadian dollars (rounded down to the nearest cent) determined on the basis of an amount equal to (i) $5.09 multiplied by (ii) the fractional share amount. All cash payable in lieu of fractional Radiant Shares will be denominated in Canadian dollars.

Section 5.4 Loss of Certificates

In the event any certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented one or more outstanding Common Shares that were acquired by the Purchaser pursuant to Section 3.1(c)(i) has been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the former holder of such Common Shares, the Depositary will, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, deliver to such former holder of Common Shares the Cash Consideration and/or Share Consideration such former holder is entitled to receive in respect of such Common Shares pursuant to Section 3.1(c)(i) together with any distributions or dividends which such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 5.2 and less, in each case, any amounts withheld pursuant to Section 5.6. When authorizing such payment in relation to any lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, the former holder of such Common Shares will, as a condition precedent to the delivery thereof, give a bond satisfactory to the Purchaser and the Depositary or otherwise indemnify the Company, the Purchaser, the Parent and the Depositary against any claim that may be made against any of them with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

Section 5.5 Extinction of Rights

Any certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented one or more outstanding Common Shares that were acquired by the Purchaser pursuant to Section 3.1(c)(i) which is not deposited with the Depositary in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.1 on or before the sixth (6 th ) anniversary of the Effective Date shall, on the sixth (6 th ) anniversary of the Effective Date, cease to represent a claim or interest of any kind or nature whatsoever, whether as a securityholder or otherwise and whether against the Company, the Purchaser, the Parent, the Depositary or any other person. On such date, the Cash Consideration and/or Share Consideration such former holder of Common Shares would otherwise have been entitled to receive, together with any distributions or dividends such holder would otherwise have been entitled to receive pursuant to Section 5.2, shall be deemed to have been surrendered for no consideration to the Purchaser. Neither the Company nor the Purchaser or the Parent will be liable to any person in respect of any cash or securities (including any cash or securities previously held by the Depositary in trust for any such former holder) which is forfeited to the Purchaser or delivered to any public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

Section 5.6 Withholding Rights

The Company, the Purchaser and the Depositary will be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration otherwise payable to any Shareholder or Optionholder under this Plan of Arrangement (including any payment to Dissenting Shareholders) such amounts as the Company, the Purchaser or the Depositary is required to deduct and withhold with respect to such payment under the Tax Act, the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986 , as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, or any provision of any provincial, state, local or foreign tax law as counsel may advise is required to be so deducted and withheld by the Company, the Purchaser or the Depositary, as the case may be. For the purposes hereof, all such withheld amounts shall be treated as having been paid to the person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made on account of the obligation to make payment to such person hereunder, provided that such deducted or withheld amounts are actually remitted to the appropriate Governmental Authority by or on behalf of the Company, the Purchaser or the Depositary, as the case may be.

Section 5.7 U.S. Securities Laws Exemption

Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Company, Parent and Purchaser agree that the Plan of Arrangement will be carried out with the intention that all Radiant Shares transferred on completion of the Plan of Arrangement to the Shareholders will be issued by the Parent and transferred by the Purchaser in reliance on the exemption from registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 , as amended, as provided by Section 3(a)(10) thereof.

Article 3

AGREEMENT TO VOTE IN FAVOUR OF THE ARRANGEMENT RESOLUTION

3.1 The Shareholder hereby covenants and irrevocably agrees that it shall, from the date hereof until the earlier of (i) the Effective Time, and (ii) the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article 8, except as permitted by this Agreement:

(a) to vote or to cause to be voted the Subject Shares and the Additional Shares at the Company Meeting (or any adjournment or postponement thereof) in favour of the Arrangement Resolution and any other matter necessary for the consummation of the Arrangement and the other transactions contemplated by the Arrangement Agreement;

Article 4

4.1 The Shareholder hereby covenants and agrees to elect, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.2 of the Plan of Arrangement, to receive the Share Consideration in respect of all of the Subject Shares and the Additional Shares, subject to a reduction in such amount due to the proration in accordance with Section 3.3 of the Plan of Arrangement.

Article 5

POST-CLOSING LOCK-UP AGREEMENT

5.1 The Shareholder agrees that the Radiant Shares issued to Shareholder at the Effective Time in exchange for the Subject Shares in connection with the Arrangement, including any shares issued in connection with any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, or the like that occurs following the Effective Time (collectively, the “ Lock-Up Shares ”), shall be subject to the restrictions and obligations as set forth in this Article 5. For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Lock-Up Shares” does not include the Radiant Shares issued to Shareholder at the Effective Time in exchange for the Additional Shares.

2


 

5.2 The Shareholder shall not, without the prior written consent of Parent and Purchaser, directly or indirectly, or publicly announce an intention to, offer, sell, pledge, contract to sell (including any short sale), grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of any Lock-Up Shares or enter into any Hedging Transaction (as defined below) relating to the Lock-Up Shares (each of the foregoing referred to as a “ Disposition ”), except as follows:

(a) With respect to twenty percent (20%) of the Lock-Up Shares, after the ninety (90) day period immediately following the Effective Time; and

(b) With respect to the remaining eighty percent (80%) of the Lock-Up Shares, after the one (1) year anniversary of the Effective Time.

5.3 The foregoing restrictions are expressly intended to preclude the Shareholder from engaging in any Hedging Transaction or other transaction which is designed to or reasonably expected to lead to or result in a Disposition even if the securities would be disposed of by someone other than the Shareholder.

5.4 “ Hedging Transaction ” means any short sale (whether or not against the box) or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including, without limitation, any put or call option) with respect to any security (other than a broad-based market basket or index) that includes, relates to or derives any significant part of its value from the Lock-Up Shares.

5.5 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 5, the Shareholder may transfer any or all of the Lock-Up Shares (i) by gift or to any member of the immediate family of the Shareholder or to any trust or partnership for the direct or indirect benefit of the Shareholder or the immediate family of the Shareholder (including by will or intestate succession), provided that any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value, (ii) to any affiliates, associates, limited partners, members or shareholders of the Shareholder, and (iii) pursuant to a bona fide third-party tender offer, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction made to all holders of Radiant Shares involving a change of control of Parent; provided, however, that in any such case it shall be a condition to the transfer pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) above, that the transferee executes an agreement stating that the transferee is receiving and holding the Lock-Up Shares subject to the provisions of this Agreement and there shall be no further transfer of such Lock-Up Shares except in accordance with this Agreement.

5.6 Without limiting the restrictions or obligations herein, any Disposition by the Shareholder shall remain at all times subject to applicable securities laws.

The Shareholder agrees that Parent and/or Purchaser may place an appropriate restrictive legend on the stock certificates representing the Lock-Up Shares issued to the Shareholder to indicate that such shares are subject to the terms of this Agreement. Parent and Purchaser each agrees that it will (or will instruct the transfer agent to) promptly remove such restrictive legend upon the termination of this Agreement and that the Parent and Purchaser shall pay all costs associated with such removal (including all reasonable legal and broker fees of the Shareholder).

Bank will act as sole and exclusive Agent, lead arranger and book manager for the Senior Credit Facility. No additional agents, co-agents or arrangers will be appointed and no other titles will be awarded without Bank’s prior written approval. Subject to the terms hereof, Bank hereby commits to provide (directly and/or through one or more of its direct or indirect subsidiaries or affiliates) $65,000,000 of the Senior Credit Facility.

You agree that, effective upon your acceptance of this Commitment Letter and continuing through April 15, 2015, you shall not solicit any other bank, investment bank, financial institution, person or entity to provide, structure, arrange or syndicate the Senior Credit Facility or any other senior financing similar to the Senior Credit Facility.

You hereby represent, warrant and covenant that (a) all information, other than Projections (as defined below), which has been or is hereafter made available to Bank by you or the Target Company or any of your or their respective affiliates or representatives (or on your or their behalf) in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (collectively, “ Information ”) is and will be complete and correct in all material respects and does not and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading; and (b) all financial projections concerning Borrower, the Target Company, and your and their respective affiliates that have been or are hereafter made available to Bank by you or the Target Company or any of your or their respective affiliates or representatives (“ Projections ”) have been and will be prepared in good faith based upon reasonable assumptions. You agree to furnish Bank with such Information and Projections as it may reasonably request and to supplement the Information and Projections from time to time until the closing date for the Senior Credit Facility, so that the representations, warranties and covenants in the preceding sentence are correct on the closing date. In issuing this commitment, Bank is and will be relying on, without independent verification, the Information and Projections.

By executing this Commitment Letter, you agree to reimburse Bank from time to time on demand for all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses (including without limitation (a) the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel, including any special or local counsel, and (b) due diligence expenses) incurred in connection with the Senior Credit Facility, the preparation of the definitive documentation therefor and the other transactions contemplated hereby.

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Bank, each other lender under the Senior Credit Facility (the “ Lenders ”), and each of their affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives (each, an “ Indemnified Party ”) from and against (and will reimburse each Indemnified Party as the same are incurred for) any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of (including, without limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or preparation of a defense in connection therewith) (a) any matters contemplated by this Commitment Letter or any related transaction, including the Acquisition, or (b) the Senior Credit Facility and any other financings or any use made or proposed to be made with the proceeds thereof (in all cases, whether or not caused or arising,

 


 

in whole or in part, out of the comparative, contributory or sole negligence of the Indemnified Party), except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is found in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the case of an investigation, litigation or proceeding to which the indemnity in this paragraph applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by you, your equity holders or creditors, a third party or an Indemnified Party, whether or not an Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated. You also agree that no Indemnified Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort, or otherwise) to you or your affiliates or to your or their respective equity holders or creditors arising out of, related to or in connection with any aspect of the transactions contemplated hereby, except to the extent of direct, as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive, damages determined in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. It is further agreed that Bank shall only have liability to you (as opposed to any other person), and that such liability shall only arise to the extent damages have been caused by a breach of Bank’s obligations hereunder to negotiate definitive documentation for the Senior Credit Facility in good faith on the terms set forth herein, as determined in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Commitment Letter, no Indemnified Party shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through electronic telecommunications or other information transmission systems.

You hereby waive and release, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that you may have against Bank with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty.

SECURITY/

COLLATERAL:

 

Third lien on the assets of the Company domiciled in the U.S., as more particularly set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto.

 

 

SUBORDINATION:

 

The Subordinated Debt will be junior in lien status and right of payment to: (i) a senior cross-border credit facility provided by Bank of America (the “ Senior Credit Facility ”) and (ii) Radiant’s secured guarantee of CDN$ 29,000,000 to Integrated Private Debt Fund IV LP (the “ Canadian Credit Facility ”) and senior to any other indebtedness, including any earn-out, seller notes, and/or contingent consideration, pursuant to intercreditor agreements to be written on customary, market terms, as more particularly set forth on Schedule 1 attached hereto with respect to the Senior Credit Facility and the Canadian Credit Facility.

 

 

 

FINANCIAL AND

OTHER COVENANTS:

 

The financing agreements for the Subordinated Debt will contain customary financial covenants including, but not limited to: (i) a debt incurrence covenant of 3.50x EBITDA (through the senior and mezzanine debt); (ii) a debt maintenance covenant of 3.75x EBITDA (through senior and mezzanine debt) and stepping down 10 bps per year on each anniversary of the agreement; (iii) a total debt maintenance covenants of 4.25x (through senior, mezzanine debt, seller debt and all other debt) and stepping down 10 bps per year on each anniversary of the agreement; and (iv) a fixed charge covenant of 1.05x (the calculation of which will reflect fixed charges on all funded debt outstanding as well as taxes, dividends, etc.). For avoidance of doubt, the definition of funded debt will exclude contingent liabilities. There will be limitations on the incurrence of additional debt or liens, the payments of cash dividends (including during an Event of Default), distributions from Radiant Logistics Partners LLC and other similar cash payments. The Subordinated Debt shall also be entitled to all affirmative, negative and financial covenants applicable to the Senior Credit Facility and the Canadian Credit Facility, subject to appropriate, market cushions to be agreed upon, as well as anti-layering provisions (the assumption is that all debt documents will have the same definition of terms and covenants, but the metric levels will differ).

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Notwithstanding the above, the financing agreements for the Subordinated Debt will also provide for “permitted acquisitions” so long as such acquisition meet the following parameters: (i) the equity interests or property acquired in such acquisition constitute a business reasonably related to the Company; (ii) no default or “event of default” shall exist prior to or will be caused as a result of such acquisition; (iii) the Company shall have provided the Investors with at least 30 business days prior written notice of such acquisition, such notice to include (a) a description of the property or equity interests to be purchased, (b) the price and terms of such acquisition, (c) a certificate of its chief financial officer to the effect that no default or “event of default” exists and attaching, in reasonable detail, computations and a consolidated financial statement prepared on a pro forma basis of the Company and its subsidiaries immediately prior to and after giving effect to such acquisition demonstrating compliance with financial covenants; (iv) such person or entity whose equity interests or property is being acquired shall have as of the last day of the most recent fiscal quarter of such person or entity ending on or immediately prior to the date of such acquisition actual (or pro forma to the extent approved in writing by the Investors) EBITDA and net income greater than $1, in each case for the 12 month period ending on such date; (v) the aggregate cash consideration payable at the closing of the acquisition shall not exceed $10,000,00 for any single transaction and $25,000,000 in the aggregate in any fiscal year or such greater amount approved in writing by the Investors; provided , however , that (a) the foregoing limitation shall exclude cash consideration derived from the proceeds of sales of newly issued equity interests of the Company during the twelve-month period prior to the closing of such acquisition to the extent the Company elects to issue equity interests, and (b) the written consent of the Investors shall be required if the aggregate cash consideration payable at the closing of any transaction of the type described in clause (a) is equal to or greater than $25,000,000; and (vi) the post-closing availability under the Senior Credit Facility is at least $7,500,000 on a pro forma basis. Furthermore, the requirements of provision (v) above will be deemed waived with respect to the two acquisition candidates described on Schedule 2 to this Term Sheet (the “ Target Acquisitions ”).

 

 

 

 

EVENTS OF DEFAULT:

 

The aforementioned paragraph is limited by the fact that no significant acquisitions for 6 months post-close of the Target and no more than 2 significant acquisitions per year (without consent), not including the Target Acquisitions. The definition of “significant” transactions would exclude the acquisition of the Company’s existing agent station locations or agent stations in competing networks and other transactions where the total base purchase price is less than $10.0M.

 

Customary Events of Default will include but are not limited to: (i) failure to pay interest or principal when due and payable; (ii) failure to comply with the covenants in the financing agreements; (iii) breaches of representations and warranties; (iv) failure to discharge material judgments; (v) bankruptcy or insolvency; (vi) cross-acceleration to the Senior Credit Facility and the Canadian Credit Facility, (vii) acquisition of all or a portion of the Senior Credit Facility or the Canadian Credit Facility by the Company or its affiliates; and (viii) any other events of default applicable to the Senior Credit Facility and the Canadian Credit Facility, subject to appropriate, market cushions to be agreed upon.

 

 

POST-DEFAULT INTEREST RATE:

 

The Coupon plus 2.0% cash upon the existence and continuation of an Event of Default.

 

 

BOARD OF DIRECTOR

MEETINGS:

 

The Investors shall (i) have board observation rights for the board and committee (other than audit and compensation committees) meetings of the Company, all of its subsidiaries, and any other affiliated entity in which the Investors invests and (ii) and shall receive all materials related thereto and (ii) shall receive copies of any actions of the Company and its subsidiaries taken without a meeting, in each case subject to customary exceptions for conflicts of interest and impairment of the attorney-client privilege.

BELLEVUE, WA January 20, 2015 – Radiant Logistics, Inc.(“Radiant”) (NYSE MKT: RLGT) today announced that it has agreed to acquire Wheels Group, Inc. (“Wheels”) (TSXV: WGI), one of the largest non-asset based third party logistics providers based in Canada. Pursuant to an Arrangement Agreement and court administered Plan of Arrangement governed by Canadian law, Radiant, through its newly formed wholly-owned subsidiary Radiant Global Logistics ULC, has agreed to acquire all of the outstanding common shares of Wheels (the “Arrangement”). The combined company will continue to trade on the NYSE MKT under the symbol “RLGT.”

Under the Arrangement, Radiant has agreed to purchase Wheels for CAD $0.77 per common share, payable either in cash or by delivery of Radiant shares valued at USD $4.25 per share, for a total equity value of approximately CAD $69 million. With historic Wheels debt expected to be refinanced, the transaction is expected to have an estimated total enterprise value of CAD $95 million.

The transaction is expected to close early in the second calendar quarter of 2015, subject to regulatory clearance, court approval of the Arrangement, Wheels shareholder approval and other customary conditions. Wheels’ board of directors unanimously approved the transaction.

Wheels, founded in 1988, provides intermodal and truck brokerage services throughout the United States and Canada along with third party logistics solutions and value added warehouse and distribution service offerings in support of U.S. shippers looking to access the Canadian markets. Wheels’ Canadian operations are headquartered Toronto, Ontario, while its U.S. operations are headquartered in Chicago, Illinois. For the trailing 12 months ended September 30, 2014, Wheels generated total revenue of CAD $368 million, consisting of CAD $185 million in revenues attributed to its U.S. operations and CAD $187 million in revenues attributed to its Canadian operations, including CAD $4.0 million of intercompany transactions that will eliminate in consolidation.

Highlights of the proposed transaction

·

For the purposes of determining the consideration payable to holders of common shares of Wheels, each Radiant Share will be valued at USD $4.25 and each common share of Wheels will entitle the holder thereof to elect to receive either CAD $0.77 in cash or 0.151384 of a Radiant Share. If the holders of common shares of Wheels elect to receive, in aggregate, greater than 6,900,000 Radiant shares, the number of Radiant shares will be prorated among the Wheels shareholders electing to receive Radiant Shares and the balance of the consideration will be paid in cash.

·

The consideration payable under the Arrangement represents a 27.6% premium to the 20-day volume weighted average price of the common shares of Wheels on the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”) as of January 19, 2015 and a 35.1% premium to the closing price of Wheels’ common shares on the TSXV, immediately prior to the announcement of the transaction.

·

In connection with financing the Arrangement, Radiant has obtained commitments from Bank of America for a new USD $65.0 million senior secured revolving cross-border credit facility (replacing Radiant’s existing USD $30.0 million facility); a new CAD $29.0 million senior secured Canadian term loan from Integrated Private Debt Fund IV LP; and a USD $25.0 million subordinated secured term loan from Alcentra Capital Corporation and Triangle Capital Corporation. The financing is intended to fund the Wheels transaction and to provide capital for general corporate purposes, including potential future acquisitions.


·

Radiant has also secured voting support and lock-up agreements from certain officers, directors and shareholders of Wheels (collectively, the “Support Group”) who collectively own 69,620,288 common shares, representing approximately 77.7% of the outstanding common shares of Wheels. Pursuant to these agreements, subject to certain fiduciary considerations, the members of the Support Group have agreed to vote their Wheels common shares in favor of the Arrangement and elected to receive approximately 4.5 million shares of Radiant common stock representing approximately CAD $23.0 million of the CAD $69.0 million equity value of Wheels.

·

The Arrangement contains customary deal protection provisions, including non-solicitation, superior proposal and right-to-match provisions in favor of Radiant and the payment to Radiant of a termination fee of USD $3.6 million together with an additional amount on account of Radiant’s costs and expenses in connection with pursuing the Arrangement (up to a maximum of USD $1.0 million) if the acquisition is not completed in certain specified circumstances. In certain circumstances where the Arrangement is not completed, as described in the Arrangement Agreement, Radiant has agreed to pay Wheels’ costs and expenses up to a maximum of USD $1.0 million.

·

The board of directors of Wheels, on the recommendation of the independent special committee, has approved the Arrangement and recommended that the Wheels shareholders vote in favor of the Arrangement at a meeting of the Wheels shareholders to be called, subject to certain standard and customary fiduciary considerations.

·

The value of the transaction represents an aggregate consideration of approximately 8.3 times projected EBITDA for Wheels for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2016 of CAD $11.5 million which includes approximately CAD $3.0 million in cost synergies related to contractual reduction in Founders’ compensation, redundant public company costs and facilities consolidation underway in Toronto. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP measure appears at the end of this release.

·

Bohn Crain, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Radiant, will retain these positions and lead the combined company.

·

Tim Boyce, President of Wheels’ U.S operations will continue as the chief operating officer of the combined organization’s North American brokerage operations and Peter Jamieson, President, Wheels Canada will continue as Senior Vice President and Country Manager for Canada.

Bohn Crain, Founder and CEO of Radiant, commented: “We are very excited to partner with the Wheels organization, which represents a service line and geographic expansion for both companies. We have been looking for a truck brokerage and intermodal platform to complement our forwarding operations for some time and we expect this transaction to be accretive to our earnings (as adjusted for amortization of acquired intangibles) within the near term and accelerate our growth. For our fiscal year ending June 30, 2016, our preliminary estimates for the revenues of the combined group are projected at USD $750 million.”

Crain continued, “ Historically, our organization has focused on bringing new value to the agent based forwarding community by: (1) leveraging our status as a public company to provide our partners with an opportunity to share in the value they help to create; (2) providing a robust platform in terms of buy rates, technology and a differentiated service offering to support our end customers; and (3) offering a unique opportunity in terms of succession planning and liquidity for our station owners. We believe the acquisition further enhances the value proposition we offer our existing operating partners who will now have the opportunity to access a broad range of rail and truck brokerage capabilities while further differentiating us in the marketplace as we seek to attract additional operators to our platform.

“Wheels and Radiant share a common vision and provide complimentary services which will be leveraged to expand operational capabilities and geographic reach,” said Doug Tozer, Chief Executive Officer of Wheels. “We look forward to working with Radiant to introduce intermodal and truck brokerage capabilities to customers in their network, as well as support them with opportunities here in Canada while leveraging Radiant’s domestic and international freight forwarding capabilities across our own customer base.”
