Item 1.01
|
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
|
On September 11, 2019, Baker Hughes, a GE company (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with General Electric Company (“GE”), GE Oil & Gas US Holdings I, Inc., GE Holdings (US), Inc. and GE Oil & Gas US Holdings IV, Inc. (collectively, together with GE, the “GE Parties” or “Selling Stockholders”) and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as representative of the several underwriters listed in Schedule II thereto (the “Underwriters”), relating to an underwritten secondary public offering of 115 million shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A common stock”), of the Company being sold by the Selling Stockholders (the “Offering”). The Offering closed on September 16, 2019. Under the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Underwriters have a
30-day
option period to purchase up to 17.25 million additional shares of Class A common stock from the Selling Stockholders. The Underwriters exercised the option in full on September 12, 2019, and the option will close concurrently with the Offering on September 16, 2019.
The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and covenants of the Company and the Selling Stockholders and also provides for customary indemnification by each of the Company, the Selling Stockholders and the Underwriters against certain liabilities.
The foregoing description of the Underwriting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Underwriting Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form
8-K
and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 5.02
|
Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
|
On September 16, 2019, Jamie S. Miller and James J. Mulva resigned from their positions as directors of the Company, effective as of such date. Each of Ms. Miller and Mr. Mulva was nominated by GE, and were elected as directors of the Company in accordance with that certain Stockholders’ Agreement, dated as of November 13, 2018, by and between the Company and GE (the “Stockholders’ Agreement”). As a result of the Offering, GE ceased to hold more than 50% of the voting power of all classes of the Company’s outstanding voting stock and was obligated to cause four of its director nominees to tender their resignations. Pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement, GE is still entitled to nominate one member of the Company’s board of directors. John G. Rice continues to serve on the Company’s board of directors as a nominee of GE. Lorenzo Simonelli and W. Geoffrey Beattie will continue to serve on the Company’s board of directors but not as GE designees.
