On October 23, 2017 (the “Closing Date”), Catalent, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Catalent” and, together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), through its indirect wholly owned subsidiary Catalent Indiana Holdings, LLC (“Buyer”), a Delaware limited liability company and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Catalent Pharma Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“CPS”), completed its previously announced acquisition of Cook Pharmica LLC, an Indiana limited liability company (“Cook Pharmica”), by purchasing all of the outstanding equity interests of Cook Pharmica (the “Acquisition”).

In accordance with the Interest Purchase Agreement by and among CPS, Cook Pharmica, Cook Group Incorporated, an Indiana corporation (the “Seller”), and, solely for purposes of Section 7.19 thereof, Catalent, dated as of September 18, 2017, on the Closing Date, Buyer purchased all of the outstanding equity interests of Cook Pharmica for a purchase price of $950 million in cash, of which (i) $750 million was paid on the Closing Date, subject to a previous deposit and customary purchase price adjustments, and (ii) $200 million is payable in $50 million installments, without interest, on each anniversary of the Closing Date over a period of four years. Buyer’s deferred payment obligation of $200 million, as described above, is unsecured but remains an obligation of CPS and is subject to a guarantee by Catalent. Cook Pharmica is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Catalent.

The Company financed the portion of the Acquisition consideration due at the closing and related fees and expenses using a combination of cash on hand and net proceeds from a previously announced underwritten offering of 7,354,250 shares of Catalent’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, and a private offering of $450.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 4.875% Senior Notes due 2026.
