Item 2.                        Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

 

            On August 16, 2002, SCP Pool Corporation (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, completed its acquisition (the “Acquisition”) of Fort Wayne Pools, Inc. (“Fort Wayne”), an Indiana corporation, pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Fort Wayne Purchase Agreement”), dated as of August 16, 2002 by and between Jeffrey Bertsch, Randall E. Bertsch, Robin E. Bertsch, Dominic DiNapoli, Thomas A. Epple, Erin Garton, Laura Garton, Richard K. Garton and Jamee Garton Insko, on the one hand, and SCP Acquisition Co. LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, on the other hand.  The Fort Wayne Purchase Agreement is filed as an exhibit hereto.  The following discussion is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Fort Wayne Purchase Agreement.

 

            Pursuant to the Fort Wayne Purchase Agreement, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock of Fort Wayne for a purchase price of approximately $44 million.  The Company expanded its borrowing capacity from $110 million to $150 million under its existing revolving credit facility with Bank One, N.A., Fleet Capital Corporation, BNP Paribas, Regions Bank and The Fifth Third Bank to facilitate this transaction.  The amount of the consideration was determined by reference to the book value of the assets acquired and as a result of negotiations between the Company and Fort Wayne.  Prior to the acquisition, there was no material relationship between Fort Wayne and the registrant or any of its affiliates, any director or officer of the registrant, or any associate of any such director or officer.

 

            The assets owned and operated by Fort Wayne include product inventories, consisting primarily of swimming pool supplies and complementary products, and fixed assets used in the manufacturing of pools and pool components, and the distribution of product inventories.  The Company intends to sell such inventories in the ordinary course of business and to continue to use such fixed assets in the manufacturing of pools and pool components, and the distribution of product inventories.
