EXPLANATION OF RESPONSES
This Initial Statement of Beneficial Ownership on Form 3 (this "Form") is
filed by Steamboat Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation ("Merger Sub"),
AmeriServe Food Distribution, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("AmeriServe"), Nebco
Evans Holding Company, a Delaware corporation ("NEHC"), Nebco Evans
Distributors, Inc. a Delaware corporation ("NED"), Holberg Industries, Inc., a
Delaware corporation ("Holberg Industries"), Holberg Incorporated, a Delaware
corporation ("Holberg"), and John V. Holten ("Holten"). Together Merger Sub,
AmeriServe, NEHC, NED, Holberg Industries, Holberg and Mr. Holten are the
"Reporting Persons". All of the outstanding common stock of Merger Sub is owned
by AmeriServe, all of the outstanding common stock of AmeriServe is owned by
NEHC and all of the outstanding common stock of NEHC is owned by NED. As of the
date hereof, Holberg Industries owns approximately 93% of the outstanding common
stock of NED and has an additional interest in the common stock of NED of
approximately 75% through preferred stock convertible into common stock; Mr.
Holten owns all of the outstanding common stock of Holberg, the corporate parent
of Holberg Industries, which entity owns approximately 70% of the outstanding
common stock of Holberg Industries and an additional interest in the common
stock of Holberg Industries of approximately 25% through certain preferred
stock convertible into common stock. The convertible interests described in this
Form 3 have been computed based upon the outstanding common shares of each of
the corporate Reporting Persons without taking into account any options or
convertible interests therein.
In connection with an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger
Agreement"), dated as of January 29, 1998, by and among AmeriServe, Merger Sub
and ProSource, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), Merger Sub and
AmeriServe have entered into a Voting Agreement (the "Voting Agreement"), dated
as of January 29, 1998, with Onex DHC LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company,
and certain of its affiliates (collectively, the "Onex Stockholders"). As of the
date of the Voting Agreement, the Onex Stockholders were the beneficial owners
of 496,583 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per
share ("Class A Common Stock") (representing approximately 14.4% of the Class A
Common Stock) and 5,218,072 shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock, par
value $0.01 per share ("Class B Common Stock" and together with the Class A
Common Stock, the "Common Stock")(representing approximately 88.4% of the
Class B Common Stock outstanding). The Common Stock owned by the Stockholders
are referred to as the "Subject Shares".
Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, the Onex Stockholders have, among other
things, granted AmeriServe and Merger Sub and irrevocable option (the "Option")
to acquire the Subject Shares, in whole and not in part, at a price of $15.00
per share in cash (the "Exercise Price"), subject to certain conditions set
forth in the Voting Agreement, exercisable during the 30-day period following a
termination of the Merger Agreement, other than pursuant to a termination upon
mutual consent of the parties thereto, or pursuant to a termination of the
Merger Agreement by the Company based on an actual material breach by Merger Sub
or AmeriServe of their respective obligations thereunder. The covenants and
agreements contained in the Voting Agreement with respect to the Subject Shares
will terminate upon the earliest of (x) the effective time of the merger
pursuant to the Merger Agreement, (y) the termination fo the Merger Agreement
based upon mutual consent of the parties thereto, or the termination of the
Merger Agreement by the Company based on an actual material breach by Merger Sub
of AmeriServe of their respective obligations thereunder, or (z) the 30th day
following another termination of the Merger Agreement pursuant to its terms
(after which termination the Option becomes exercisable), subject to certain
extensions if the Option has been exercised by the closing if such exercise has
not occurred.
Prior to the Option becoming exercisable and being exercised, the Reporting
Persons expressly disclaim beneficial ownership of shares of Class A Common
Stock and Class B Common Stock which are purchasable by Merger Sub upon the
Option becoming exercisable and being exercised. Neither the filing of this Form
3 nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission that any
Reporting Person is the beneficial owner of the shares of Class A Common Stock
and Class B Common Stock subject to the Option for purposes of Section 13(d) or
16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or for any other purpose,
and such beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed.
