Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive
Agreement.
On November 22, 2016, RE/MAX, LLC (the “Company”)
entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “APA”) with RE/MAX of Kentucky/Tennessee, Inc. (“RE/MAX of Kentucky/Tennessee”);
RE/MAX of Georgia, Inc. (“RE/MAX of Georgia”); RE/MAX of Southern Ohio, Inc. (“RE/MAX of Southern Ohio”
and, together with RE/MAX of Kentucky/Tennessee and RE/MAX of Southern Ohio, the “Sellers”); the stockholder of the
Sellers; and certain key employees of the Sellers. Pursuant to the APA, the Company has agreed to acquire certain assets of the
Sellers (the “Acquisition”). The assets to be acquired include the regional franchise agreements issued by the Company
permitting the sale of RE/MAX franchises in Georgia, Kentucky, Tennessee, and certain areas of Ohio. The Company intends to acquire
these assets in order to expand its owned and operated regional franchising operations. The Company will pay a purchase price of
approximately $50.4 million. The Acquisition, which is subject to customary closing conditions, is expected to close by the end
of 2016. Each of the parties to the APA has made certain representations, warranties, and covenants that are customary for a transaction
of this nature. The foregoing description of the APA does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference
to the APA, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and incorporated herein by reference. The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary
of RMCO, LLC (“RMCO”), and RE/MAX Holdings, Inc. is the sole manager of RMCO.
On November 22, 2016, the Company and RMCO entered into the
second amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the credit agreement, dated July 31, 2013 (the “Credit Agreement”)
with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and the various lenders party thereto. The Second Amendment increases the
revolving commitment of the lenders by $20,000,000 (to a total of $30,000,000), effective on the closing date of the Acquisition,
and waives certain limitations on acquisitions in order to enable the Company to consummate the Acquisition. The revolving commitment
under the Credit Agreement is in addition to existing term loans borrowed by the Company under the Credit Agreement. The foregoing
summary of the Second Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Second Amendment,
a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K.
Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an
Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
