ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS
On October 23, 2000, Billing Concepts Corp. (the "Registrant") disposed
of all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of five of its
wholly owned subsidiaries: Billing Concepts, Inc. ("BCI"), Enhanced Services
Billing, Inc. ("ESBI"), BC Transaction Processing Services, Inc. ("BCTPS"),
Aptis, Inc. ("Aptis") and Operator Service Company ("OSC," and collectively with
BCI, ESBI, BCTPS and Aptis, the "Companies"). Pursuant to an Agreement and Plan
of Merger dated as of September 15, 2000, as amended as of October 20, 2000 (as
amended, the "Merger Agreement"), by and among the Registrant, the Companies, BC
Holding I Corporation ("Buyer I"), BC Holding II Corporation ("Buyer II"), BC
Holding III Corporation ("Buyer III," and collectively with Buyer I and Buyer
II, the "Buyers"), BC Acquisition I Corporation ("Acquisition Sub 1"), BC
Acquisition II Corporation ("Acquisition Sub 2"), BC Acquisition III Corporation
("Acquisition Sub 3") and BC Acquisition IV Corporation ("Acquisition Sub 4,"
and collectively with Acquisition Sub 1, Acquisition Sub 2 and Acquisition Sub
3, the "Acquisition Subs"), Acquisition Sub 1 and BCTPS merged with and into
BCI, Acquisition Sub 2 merged with and into ESBI, Acquisition Sub 3 merged with
and into Aptis and Acquisition Sub 4 merged with and into OSC. Each of the
Buyers and Acquisition Subs is a direct or indirect subsidiary of Platinum
Equity Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Platinum").
Pursuant to the mergers, BCI and ESBI became wholly owned subsidiaries of Buyer
I, Aptis became a wholly owned subsidiary of Buyer II and OSC became a wholly
owned subsidiary of Buyer III.
The Registrant, as sole stockholder of the Companies prior to the
mergers, received consideration from the Buyers in the form of $52,500,000 in
cash, subject to adjustment following the closing based on the calculation of
working capital on the Companies' balance sheets as of the closing date.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Registrant is also to receive up to
$20,000,000 in royalties over the 36-month period commencing on the closing
date, subject to the Companies meeting certain revenue targets. The Registrant
has also entered into a consulting agreement with Platinum pursuant to which the
Registrant will receive $7,500,000 over the two-year period commencing on the
closing date as consideration for consulting services to be provided by the
Registrant to Platinum during such two-year period. The amount of consideration
was arrived at through negotiations between the Registrant and Platinum and was
based on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, earnings and
revenue, the value of the goodwill and the nature of the teleservices industry.
To the Registrant's knowledge, there is no other material relationship between
Platinum and the Registrant or any of its affiliates, any director or officer of
the Registrant, or any associate of any such director or officer.
A copy of the Registrant's October 23, 2000 press release announcing
the completion of the dispositions is included as exhibit 99.1 and is
incorporated herein by reference.
