ANNEX A
Description of Borrower's Reorganization
Please see below a description of the proposed planning for ▇▇▇▇▇ Enterprises,
Incorporated (hereinafter referred to as "Sykes" or "the Company").
The purpose of this planning is to improve the Company's treasury position by
allowing it to efficiently transfer funds amongst its domestic and foreign group
members in accord with its business objectives.
In general, the planning contemplates a contribution of various foreign
subsidiaries to a newly formed Dutch limited partnership, (a "Commanditaire
Vennootschap" or "CV"). Prior to their contribution, the Company has held these
foreign subsidiaries directly. The CV will thereafter act as a European holding
company for many of Sykes' foreign subsidiaries.
The planning also contemplates a transaction whereby Sykes' Canadian subsidiary
will purchase Sykes' Germany subsidiaries.
The Company will effect the planning through a series of steps. The significant
details of these steps are set out below. Although the transactions and amounts
included below represent Sykes' current plan, the actual transactions and
amounts may be slightly different.
1. Sykes will form two new subsidiaries:
- Sykes Canada Company, a Canadian unlimited liability
corporation (hereinafter referred to as "SCC ULC")
and
- ▇▇▇▇▇ International Holdings BV, a Dutch corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "NBV");
Sykes will fund these entities with the minimum capital
required;
2. Sykes will contribute the shares of SCC ULC to the capital of
Sykes Canada Corporation, ("SCC"), a wholly owned Canadian
subsidiary of Sykes;
3. Sykes will contribute the shares of SCC, NBV and the shares of
its wholly owned Swedish subsidiary, Datasvar, to its
previously-existing Dutch subsidiary, ▇▇▇▇▇ Enterprises
Holdings, BV (hereinafter referred to as "HBV");
4. HBV will contribute the shares of SCC to NBV;
5. Sykes will form two new wholly-owned US subsidiary, Sykes
Global Holdings, LLC (referred to herein as "US LLC") and
▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ Holding, LLC (referred to herein as "LPLLC");
6. Sykes, through US LLC and LPLLC will create a new Dutch
entity, Sykes Investments, CV (hereinafter referred to as
"CV"); LPLLC will act as a limited partner of CV holding in
excess of 99.99%, and US LLC will act as a general partner,
holding less than 0.01%;
7. Sykes will contribute the shares of ▇▇▇▇▇ Enterprises GmbH,
its wholly owned German subsidiary (hereinafter referred to as
SE_GmbH), and the shares of HBV to CV.
8. SCC and SCC ULC will amalgamate with the resulting Canadian
entity taking on unlimited liability form (the surviving
entity will hereinafter be referred to as "CanSub ULC");
9. CV will sell approximately $10 million of shares of SE_GmbH to
NBV in exchange for a note payable issued by NBV (hereinafter
referred to as the "NBV Note");
10. CV will sell its remaining shares of SE_GmbH to CanSub ULC in
exchange for an approximately $40 million note payable issued
by CanSub ULC (The "CanSub Note") and for additional shares of
CanSub ULC;
11. NBV will contribute the SE_GmbH shares it recently purchased
(as described above) to the capital of CanSub ULC;
12. CV will sell the CanSub Note to HBV in exchange for an
approximately $40 million note payable issued by HBV;
13. CanSub ULC will distribute approximately $13 million of cash
to NBV as a distribution of capital;
14. NBV will distribute approximately $13 million of cash to CV in
full satisfaction of the NBV Note; and
15. CV will distribute approximately $13 million of cash to ▇▇▇▇▇
as a partnership distribution.
