Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
In connection with WillScot Corporations (the Company) pending acquisition of Modular Space Holdings, Inc. (the Acquisition), on July 9, 2018, Williams Scotsman International, Inc. (WSII) and certain other subsidiaries of the Company entered into a first amendment (the First Amendment) to their ABL credit agreement, dated as of November 29, 2017 (the Credit Agreement), among WSII, the guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as agent and collateral agent. The amendments contemplated by the First Amendment will not become effective until the closing of the Acquisition.
Upon its effectiveness, the First Amendment will amend the Credit Agreement to, among other things, (i) permit the Acquisition and the related incurrences of indebtedness by WSII and certain other subsidiaries of the Company to finance the Acquisition; (ii) increase the maximum revolving credit facility amount to $1.35 billion with an accordion feature allowing up to $1.8 billion of capacity; and (iii) increase certain thresholds, basket sizes and default and notice triggers to account for the increased size of the business of WSII and its subsidiaries following the Acquisition.
Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
The information set forth under Item 8.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
As disclosed previously, as a special purpose acquisition company prior to its business combination with WSII in November 2017, the Company was required to demonstrate compliance with the initial listing requirements for The Nasdaq Capital Market following the business combination. In January 2018, the Company received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (Nasdaq) indicating that the Companys common stock complies with the initial requirements for listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, whereas the Companys warrants did not comply with the minimum 400 round lot holder requirement set forth in Listing Rule 5515(a)(4). For purposes of the initial listing requirements for warrants, a round lot holder is an investor that owns at least 100 warrants.
The Company timely requested a hearing to explore the possibility of staying a delisting action. On February 20, 2018, a Nasdaq Hearings Panel granted the Companys request for an extension of time to demonstrate compliance by July 3, 2018.
On July 10, 2018, the Company was notified of the Nasdaq Hearings Panels determination to delist the warrants based on the Companys failure to demonstrate compliance by the July 3 deadline. Trading for the Companys warrants was suspended at the opening of business on July 12, 2018, and a Form 25-NSE will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission to remove the warrants from listing and registration on the Nasdaq Stock Market.
The Company expects that its warrants will be eligible to be traded over-the-counter. However, no assurance can be given that trading of the warrants will be commenced or maintained on an over-the-counter market or any other quotation medium.
This action does not affect the listing of the Companys class A common stock (Nasdaq: WSC).
