LEGACY ACQUISITION CORP. ANNOUNCES PRELIMINARY RESULTS OF CASH TENDER OFFER FOR ITS CLASS A COMMON STOCK
November 19 2020 - 8:44AM
Legacy Acquisition Corp. (NYSE: “LGC”) (“Legacy”), a
publicly-traded Special Purpose Acquisition Company, announced
today the preliminary results of its previously announced tender
offer to purchase up to all 6,122,699 issued and outstanding shares
of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A
Common Stock”), that were initially issued as part of units in
Legacy’s initial public offering (such shares of Class A Common
Stock, the “Public Shares”), at a purchase price of $10.5040 per
Public Share, net to the seller in cash, without interest (the
“Tender Offer”). The Tender Offer was made in connection with the
previously announced business combination (the “Business
Combination”) with Onyx Enterprises Int’l, Corp., a New Jersey
corporation (“Onyx”), pursuant to the Business Combination
Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”), dated September
18, 2020, by and among Legacy, Excel Merger Sub I, Inc., Excel
Merger Sub II, LLC, Onyx and Shareholder Representative Services
LLC.
The Tender Offer expired at 12:01 a.m. New York City time, on
Thursday, November 19, 2020 (the “Expiration Time”). As of the
Expiration Time, 5,153,781 or 84.1750% of the outstanding Public
Shares had been validly tendered and not withdrawn in the Tender
Offer. Legacy will accept for purchase all of the Public Shares
validly tendered and delivered in the Tender Offer at or prior to
the Expiration Time. However, certain holders have indicated an
interest in withdrawing a number of their validly tendered Public
Shares and Legacy intends to allow for any such withdrawals. Total
consideration of $54,135,315.62 (as may be subsequently adjusted to
account for such withdrawals) will be paid to the tendering Public
Shares holders promptly following the closing of the Business
Combination.
About Legacy Acquisition Corp.
Legacy raised $300 million in November 2017 and its
securities are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). At
the time of its listing, Legacy was the only Special Purpose
Acquisition Company on the NYSE led predominantly by African
American managers and sponsor investors. Legacy was formed for the
purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset
acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or
similar business combination with one or more target businesses.
Legacy is sponsored by a team of proven leaders primarily comprised
of former Procter & Gamble executives and is supported by a
founder/shareholder group of proven operationally based value
builders. These executives have extensive experience in building
brands and transforming businesses for accelerated growth. Legacy’s
founders and management expectation is that Legacy will serve as a
role model for African Americans and other under-represented
business leaders to achieve success not just in the executive ranks
of large Corporations, but also as entrepreneurs in the productive
use of capital through mergers and acquisitions on Wall Street. For
