ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.
On September 7, 2001, at 5:00 p.m., central time (the "Effective
Time"), Cantel Medical Corp. ("Cantel") completed its merger with Minntech
Corporation ("Minntech"). Pursuant to the previously announced Agreement
and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 30, 2001, among Cantel, Canopy Merger
Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Cantel ("Merger Sub"), and Minntech
(the "Merger Agreement"), Merger Sub merged with and into Minntech, with
Minntech surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Cantel (the "Merger").
At a Special Meeting of Stockholders held on September 6, 2001, Cantel's
stockholders approved, among other things, the issuance of shares of Cantel
common stock required to consummate the Merger.
As a result of the Merger, each share of Minntech common stock, par
value $0.05 per share (the "Minntech Common Stock"), issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares owned by Cantel)
has been converted into the right to receive $6.25 in cash (the "Cash
Consideration") and .2216 (the "Exchange Ratio") of a share of common
stock, par value $0.10 per share, of Cantel (the "Cantel Common Stock").
The Exchange Ratio was determined in accordance with the Merger Agreement
by dividing $4.25 by $19.18, the average closing price of Cantel Common
Stock during the seven consecutive trading day period ending August 28,
2001, the trading day immediately preceding the fifth trading day prior to
Minntech's shareholders meeting. The Cash Consideration and the method used
to calculate the Exchange Ratio were determined by arms-length negotiations
between Cantel and Minntech.
Based on the number of shares of Minntech Common Stock outstanding on
July 24, 2001, Cantel expects to pay approximately $41,391,913 in cash and
to issue approximately 1,467,592 shares of Cantel Common Stock in exchange
for the issued and outstanding shares of Minntech Common Stock. Cantel will
finance the cash portion of the merger consideration out of available cash
of Cantel and Minntech, as well as through borrowings under a new senior
secured credit facility of up to $42.5 million with Fleet National Bank,
PNC Bank, N.A. and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. Cantel will account for the
Merger using the purchase method of accounting.
Minntech has developed and currently markets a wide variety of medical
device reprocessing and fluid filtration and separation products for the
renal dialysis, medical device disinfection, cardiosurgery, pharmaceutical,
biotechnology and semiconductor industries. Minntech is a leader in renal
dialyzer reprocessing, providing a broad product line that includes a
reprocessing system and a sterilant that each command the largest market
share in the U.S. in their respective categories. Cantel expects to
continue to use Minntech's assets in substantially the same manner as they
were used by Minntech prior to the acquisition.
There were no material relationships between Cantel and Minntech prior
to the consummation of the Merger. In accordance with the terms of the
Merger Agreement, on September 6, 2001, Dr. Fred Shapiro, who previously
served on the Minntech Board of Directors, was elected to the Board of
Directors of Cantel, effective as of the Effective Time.
On September 7, 2001, Cantel issued a press release announcing the
effectiveness of the Merger, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit
99.1, and is incorporated herein by reference.
