Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

As previously disclosed, WillScot Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), Mobile Mini, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Mobile Mini”), and Picasso Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated March 1, 2020, as amended by that certain Amendment to Agreement and Plan of Merger dated May 28, 2020 (and as my be further amended from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”) pursuant to which, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, Merger Sub will be merged with and into Mobile Mini, with Mobile Mini surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger” or the “Proposed Transaction”).

 

On June 15, 2020, Picasso Finance Sub, Inc., a newly-formed indirect finance subsidiary (the “Escrow Issuer”) of the Company, completed a private offering of $650.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its 6.125% senior secured notes due 2025 (the “Notes”). The Notes were sold to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and outside the United States in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act.

 

The offering proceeds were deposited into an escrow account, pending the closing of the Merger. The offering proceeds will, contemporaneously with the closing of the Merger and subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, be released from escrow to, together with funds from other sources, repay all outstanding indebtedness under the Company's existing ABL credit facility, repay all outstanding indebtedness under Mobile Mini's existing ABL credit facility, repay all of Mobile Mini's outstanding senior notes and repay all of Williams Scotsman International Inc.'s (“WSII”) senior secured notes due 2022 (collectively, the “Refinancing Transactions”) and to pay fees and expenses related to the Refinancing Transactions and the Merger. Concurrently therewith, the Escrow Issuer will merge with and into WSII, an indirect subsidiary of the Company, with WSII surviving the merger (the “Escrow Merger”) and assuming the obligations under the Notes and the Indenture (as defined below).

 

If the Merger is not consummated, the Notes will be subject to special mandatory redemption and the escrowed funds will be released to redeem the Notes, pursuant to the terms of the Indenture.

 

On June 15, 2020, the Escrow Issuer entered into an indenture with Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee (the “Indenture”), which governs the terms and conditions of the Notes.

 

The Notes will mature on June 15, 2025. They will bear interest at a rate of 6.125% per annum. Interest will be payable semi-annually on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning December 15, 2020. Upon consummation of the Escrow Merger, WSII will assume the Escrow Issuer’s obligations under the Indenture.

 

At any time and from time to time on and after June 15, 2022, WSII, at its option, may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest to but not including the applicable redemption date (subject to the right of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date falling on or prior to the redemption date), if redeemed during the 12 month period beginning on June 15 of each of the years set forth below.

 

Year   Redemption
Price
 
2022     103.063 %
2023     101.531 %
2024 and thereafter     100.000 %

 

WSII may redeem the Notes at any time before June 15, 2022 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus a customary make whole premium for the Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but not including the redemption date. At any time prior to June 15, 2022, WSII may redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes at a price equal to 106.125% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but not including the redemption date with the net proceeds of certain equity offerings. WSII may also redeem up to 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes at any time prior to the second anniversary of the closing date of this offering at a redemption price equal to 103% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed during each twelve-month period commencing with the issue date, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but not including the redemption date. If the Company undergoes a change of control or sells certain of its assets, WSII may be required to offer to repurchase the Notes.

 

From and after the closing of the Merger, the Notes will be unconditionally guaranteed by each of WSII’s direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries and WSII’s parent, Williams Scotsman Holdings Corp. (collectively, the “Note Guarantors”). The Company is not a guarantor of the Notes. The Note Guarantors as well as certain of the Company’s non-US subsidiaries will be guarantors or borrowers under a senior secured asset based revolving credit facility (the “New ABL Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of $2.4 billion, which will be entered into concurrently with the consummation of the Merger. To the extent lenders under the New ABL Facility release any Note Guarantor’s guarantee of the obligations in respect of the New ABL Facility (other than in connection with a repayment or satisfaction of obligations in full), such Note Guarantor will also be released from its guarantee obligations in respect of the Notes. These guarantees are secured by a second priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of WSII and the Note Guarantors (subject to customary exclusions). The guarantees of the Notes by WillScot Equipment II, LLC, which holds certain of WSII’s uncertificated assets in the United States, will be subordinated to its obligations under the New ABL Facility.

The words “estimates,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “forecasts,” “plans,” “intends,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “shall,” “outlook” and variations of these words and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which are generally not historical in nature. Certain of these forward-looking statements relate to the Proposed Transaction, including: expected scale; operating efficiency; stockholder, employee and customer benefits; key assumptions; timing of closing; the amount and timing of revenue and expense synergies; future financial benefits and operating results; and integration spend, which reflects management's beliefs, expectations and objectives as of the date hereof. Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors, many of which are outside our control, which could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Although WillScot believes that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, it can give no assurance that any such forward-looking statement will materialize. Important factors that may affect actual results or outcomes include, among others, our ability to acquire and integrate new assets and operations; our ability to achieve planned synergies related to acquisitions; our ability to manage growth and execute our business plan; our estimates of the size of the markets for our products; the rate and degree of market acceptance of our products; the success of other competing modular space and portable storage solutions that exist or may become available; rising costs adversely affecting our profitability (including cost increases resulting from tariffs); potential litigation involving our company; general economic and market conditions impacting demand for our products and services; implementation of tax reform; our ability to implement and maintain an effective system of internal controls; and such other risks and uncertainties described in the periodic reports we file with the SEC from time to time (including our Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2019 and our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020), which are available through the SEC’s EDGAR system at www.sec.gov and on our website.
