Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
On October 2, 2017, pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Share Purchase Agreement”), dated as of July 25, 2017, by and among iRobot Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“iRobot”), iRobot UK Ltd., a private limited company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales and a wholly-owned subsidiary of iRobot (“Buyer”), Robopolis SAS, a French company (“Robopolis”), shareholders of Robopolis, and SARL High Five Investissements, a French company, as the shareholders’ representative, iRobot completed its previously announced acquisition of Robopolis through the acquisition of the issued and outstanding capital shares of Robopolis by Buyer. At the closing, Buyer paid approximately $170.1 million in cash offset by acquired cash of approximately $31.6 million held by Robopolis and its subsidiaries at closing resulting in a net cash outlay of approximately $138.4 million. Pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement, $16.0 million of the purchase price was placed into an escrow account to settle certain claims for indemnification for breaches or inaccuracies in Robopolis’ and its shareholders’ representations and warranties, covenants and agreements, and approximately $2.4 million of the purchase price was deposited in escrow to satisfy, in part, any payments due to iRobot for certain post-closing purchase price adjustments.
A copy of the Share Purchase Agreement is attached as Exhibit 2.1 to iRobot’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 26, 2017. The foregoing description of the Share Purchase Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Share Purchase Agreement.
