Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

 

Purchase Agreement and Equity Commitment Letter

 

On October 3, 2022, Redwire Space Europe, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Purchaser”) and a subsidiary of the Issuer, entered into an agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) between the Purchaser, the companies details of which are set out in Part 1 of Schedule 1 of the Purchase Agreement (the “Vendors”) and AE Industrial Partners Fund II, LP (the “Investor”) relating to the sale by the Vendors and purchase by the Purchaser of the whole of the issued share capital of QinetiQ Space NV, a public limited liability company incorporated under the laws of Belgium. The Purchaser will pay the Vendors acquisition consideration of €32 million, subject to customary cash, debt and working capital adjustments at closing (the “Consideration”). The Purchase Agreement contains a guarantee by the Investor to each of the Vendors (the “Guaranty”) of the payment by the Purchaser, when due, of the Consideration in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement. The maximum amount payable under the Guaranty will not exceed $36 million.

 

On October 3, 2022, the Investor, in connection with the Guaranty, agreed to provide the Issuer on the date of Completion with up to $40 million of equity financing (the “Equity Commitment”) to be used by the Purchaser to fund the acquisition and for other permitted uses, in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds in exchange for the purchase of equity-linked securities (the “Equity-Linked Securities”) of the Issuer pursuant to that certain equity commitment letter dated October 3, 2022, from the Investor and accepted and agreed to by the Purchaser and the Issuer (the “Equity Commitment Letter”). Pursuant to the Equity Commitment Letter, the Equity Commitment is conditioned upon, among others, (i) the execution and delivery of the Purchase Agreement, and satisfaction of all closing conditions and pre-completion obligations thereunder; (ii) the Issuer having taken such actions as necessary to cause the Equity-Linked Securities to be issued; (iii) neither the Issuer nor any of its subsidiaries having issued or entered into any agreement to issue any equity interests, subject to certain exceptions, (iv) the representations and warranties of Issuer included in the Equity Commitment Letter being true and correct at the time of Completion and (v) the execution and delivery of a credit agreement amendment (the “Amendment”) which amends the Credit Agreement, dated as of October 28, 2020 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented and/or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among the Redwire Holdings, LLC, Redwire Intermediate Holdings, LLC, the other borrowers party thereto, the other guarantors party thereto, Adams Street Credit Advisors LP, as administrative agent and as collateral agent and each lender party thereto, and whereby the Amendment will provide that the Fourth Amendment Support Agreement (as defined in the Credit Agreement) will be reduced by the aggregate amount required to be paid by the Guarantors (as defined therein) pursuant to the Equity Commitment Letter or the Guaranty.
