Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Purchase Agreement
On May 26, 2011, Oil States International, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Purchase
Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), among the Company, certain subsidiary guarantors named
therein (the “Guarantors”) and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, RBC Capital Markets, LLC and
Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as representatives of the several initial purchasers (the “Initial
Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Initial Purchasers
$600,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 6.500% senior unsecured notes due 2019
(the “Notes”). The Notes were sold at par, and resulted in net proceeds to the Company of
approximately $587.3 million.
The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the parties and
indemnification and contribution provisions under which the Company and the Guarantors, on the one
hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other, have agreed to indemnify each other against certain
liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities
Act”).
A copy of the Purchase Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated
herein by reference. The description of the Purchase Agreement in this report is a summary and is
qualified in its entirety by the terms of the Purchase Agreement.
Indenture
On June 1, 2011, in connection with the issuance of the Notes, the Company entered into an
Indenture (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantors and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as
trustee (the “Trustee”).
On June 1, 2011, the Notes were issued pursuant to the Indenture in a transaction exempt from
the registration requirements under the Securities Act. The Notes were resold within the United
States only to qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act,
and outside the United States only to non-U.S. persons in reliance on Regulation S under the
Securities Act.
The Notes will mature on June 1, 2019, and interest is payable on the Notes semi-annually in
arrears on each June 1 and December 1, commencing December 1, 2011. The Notes are guaranteed on a
senior unsecured basis by the Guarantors.
At any time prior to June 1, 2014, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the Notes at a
redemption price of 106.500% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the
redemption date, with the proceeds of certain equity offerings. Prior to June 1, 2014, the Company
may redeem some or all of the notes for cash at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal
amount plus an applicable make-whole premium and accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption
date. On and after June 1, 2014, the Company may redeem some or all of the notes at redemption
prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) equal to 104.875% for the twelve-month period
beginning on June 1, 2014, 103.250% for the twelve-month period beginning June 1, 2015, 101.625%
for the twelve-month period beginning June 1, 2016 and 100.00% beginning on June 1, 2017, plus
accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date.
The Indenture restricts the Company’s ability and the ability of certain of its subsidiaries
to: (i) incur additional debt; (ii) pay distributions on, redeem or repurchase, equity interests;
(iii) make certain investments; (iv) incur liens; (v) enter into transactions with affiliates; (vi)
merge or consolidate with another company; and (vii) transfer and sell assets. These covenants are
subject to a number of important exceptions and qualifications. If at any time when the Notes are
rated investment grade by either Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Ratings
Services and no Default (as defined in the Indenture) has occurred and is continuing, many of such
covenants will terminate and the Company and its subsidiaries will cease to be subject to such
covenants.
The Indenture contains customary events of default, including, but not limited to:
| |
• |
|
default in any payment of interest on any Note when due, continued for 30 days; |
| |
• |
|
default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, on any Note when due; |
| |
| |
• |
|
failure by the Company to comply with its other obligations under the Indenture, in
certain cases subject to notice and grace periods; |
| |
| |
• |
|
payment defaults and accelerations with respect to other indebtedness of the Company and
its Restricted Subsidiaries (as defined in the Indenture) in the aggregate principal amount
of $35.0 million or more; |
| |
| |
• |
|
certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company or a
Significant Subsidiary (as defined in the Indenture) or group of Restricted Subsidiaries
that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary; |
| |
| |
• |
|
failure by the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or group of Restricted Subsidiaries
that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary to pay certain final
judgments aggregating in excess of $35.0 million within 60 days; and |
| |
| |
• |
|
any guarantee of the Notes by a Guarantor ceases to be in full force and effect, is
declared null and void in a judicial proceeding or is denied or disaffirmed by its maker. |
A copy of the Indenture is filed as Exhibits 4.1 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated herein
by reference. The description of the Indenture is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the
terms of the Indenture.
Supplemental Indenture
On June 1, 2011, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee entered into a supplemental
indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture”) to that certain indenture dated June 21, 2005 (the
“Convertible Notes Indenture”) relating to the Company’s 2 3/8% Contingent Convertible Senior Notes
due 2025 (the “Convertible Notes”).
Pursuant to the Supplemental Indenture, each Guarantor agrees to jointly and severally, fully
and unconditionally guarantee all of the Company’s payment obligations under the Convertible Notes
Indenture and the Convertible Notes, on the same basis as the guarantee given by such Guarantor
with respect to the Notes.
A copy of the Supplemental Indenture is filed as Exhibit 4.2 to this Form 8-K and is
incorporated herein by reference. The description of the Supplemental Indenture in this report is a
summary and is qualified in its entirety by the terms of the Supplemental Indenture.
Registration Rights Agreement
In connection with the issuance and sale of the Notes, the Company and the Guarantors entered
into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the Initial
Purchasers, dated June 1, 2011. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company and the
Guarantors have agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission
so that holders of the Notes can exchange the Notes for registered notes (the “Exchange Notes”)
that have substantially identical terms as the Notes. The Company and the Guarantors will use
commercially reasonable efforts to cause the exchange to be completed within 365 days after the
issuance of the Notes. The Company and the Guarantors are required to pay additional interest if
they fail to comply with their obligations to register the Notes within the specified time periods.
A copy of the Registration Rights Agreement is filed as Exhibit 4.3 to this Form 8-K and is
incorporated herein by reference. The description of the Registration Rights Agreement in this
report is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the terms of the Registration Rights
Agreement.
