(“Buyer”) and FF US Holding Corp. (“Buyer Parent”), entered into an Asset Purchase and Contribution Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Flagship, Inc., d/b/a Tuscany (“Seller”), and Michael Graber and Jeff Burttschell (“Owners”). Seller is engaged in the business of designing and manufacturing personal-use specialty vehicles based on OEM vehicle chassis (the “Business”). to the Purchase Agreement Buyer, a wholly owned subsidiary of Buyer Parent, acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Seller in return for the gross consideration $66.25 million, payable as a mix of (i) $53.35 million in cash and (ii) and the issuance by Buyer Parent of $12.9 million worth of Buyer Parent common stock, representing 20% of the issued common stock of Buyer Parent (the “Transaction”). All terms not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Purchase Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the parties. The $53.35 million cash portion of the purchase price was reduced by the payment of certain debt of Seller, funding indemnification escrows, the payment of a portion of the premium for a representation and warranty insurance policy, and is subject to a working capital adjustment. The jointly purchased representation and warranty insurance policy contains customary terms and conditions to supplement the escrow funds with respect to breaches of Seller’s representations and warranties.

As a result of the Transaction, the Company, through its subsidiaries, owns 80% of Buyer Parent, and thus 80% of the Business. Buyer Parent and Fox Factory, Inc. have the ability to purchase the remaining 20% of Buyer Parent from Seller following the second anniversary date of the Transaction through the seventh anniversary date of the Transaction. In addition, following the seventh anniversary date of the Transaction, for 180 days Seller can require Buyer Parent or Fox Factory, Inc. to purchase the remaining 20% of Buyer Parent subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement, defined below.
