Merger (as defined in Item 2.01 below), Primo used proceeds from
the Credit Agreement to (i) repay in full $23.2 million,
constituting all aggregate outstanding indebtedness, including
principal, interest, fees and all other amounts due in connection
with such repayment under Primos (a) Senior Secured Floating Rate
Revolving Note, dated June 20, 2014 (the Floating Rate Revolving
Note) and (b) 7.80% Senior Secured Fixed Rate Term Note, dated
June 20, 2014 (the Fixed Rate Term Note); and (ii) terminate all
obligations under the Floating Rate Revolving Note, the Fixed
Rate Term Note and that certain Note Purchase Agreement, dated
June 20, 2014, by and among Primo, Primo Products, LLC, Primo
Direct, LLC, Primo Refill, LLC, Primo Ice, LLC, Primo Refill
Canada Corporation, The Prudential Life Insurance Company of
America and PICA Hartford Life Insurance Comfort Trust, as
amended by that certain First Amendment to Note Purchase
Agreement, dated as of March 7, 2016, and as further amended by
that certain Second Amendment to Note Purchase Agreement, dated
as of October 28, 2016(as amended, the Prudential Note Purchase
Agreement and, collectively with the Floating Rate Revolving Note
and Fixed Rate Term Note, the Prudential Note Documents). In
connection with the payoff, the security interests granted to the
Prudential Note Documents were terminated and released. The $23.2
million repayment by Primo includes an early termination
prepayment penalty of $2.8 million.

Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of
Assets.

On December 12, 2016, to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the
Merger Agreement), dated October 9, 2016, by and among the
Company, Primo Subsidiary Inc., a Delaware corporation and
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (Merger Sub), Glacier
Water Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (Glacier), and David
Shladovsky (the Stockholder Representative), the Company
completed the merger of Merger Sub with and into Glacier (the
Merger). Following the Merger, Glacier will continue as a wholly
owned subsidiary of the Company. The completion of the
acquisition follows the requisite approval of the merger by
Glaciers stockholders, which was obtained by the solicitation of
written consents.

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of
the Merger, each outstanding share of Glacier common stock (other
than shares for which appraisal rights under Delaware law were
properly exercised) was converted into the right to receive
approximately (i) $12.18 in cash, (ii) 0.87 of a share of Primo
common stock and (iii) a warrant to purchase 0.55 of a share of
Primo common stock (collectively, the Per Share Merger
Consideration). In addition, each outstanding Glacier stock
option was cancelled and each holder of Glacier stock options
received, in exchange for such options and in accordance with the
terms of the Merger Agreement, consideration based on the
difference between the value of the Per Share Merger
Consideration (less the value ascribed to the warrants to
purchase shares of Primo common stock) and the per share exercise
price of such Glacier stock option. In addition, each minority
LLC common unit of Glacier Water Holdings, LLC was cancelled and
terminated, and Glacier Water Holdings, LLC received Per Share
Merger Consideration for each minority LLC common unit that it
would have been entitled to receive if each such minority LLC
common unit were instead one share of Glacier common stock.

Primo paid approximately $273.0 million in aggregate
consideration in connection with the Merger subject to the terms
of the Merger Agreement, consisting of (i) approximately $50.0
million in cash, (ii) approximately $36.0 million in shares of
Primo common stock, (iii) the assumption or retirement of
approximately $177.0 million of net indebtedness and preferred
interests and (iv) the issuance of five-year warrants to purchase
2,000,000 shares of Primo common stock at an exercise price equal
to $11.88 per share of Primo common stock. Primo financed the
transaction through a combination of available cash-on-hand
and$186.0 million under the Credit Agreement Term Loan Facility.

not purport to be a complete description and is subject to, and
is qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Merger
Agreement, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to Primos
Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and
