Note 22. Sale of ARCA and Connexx

On February 19, 2021, the Company, together with its subsidiaries (a) ARCA Recycling, Inc., a California corporation (“ARCA”), and (b) Customer Connexx LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“Connexx”), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with (i) ARCA Affiliated Holdings Corporation, a Delaware corporation, (ii) ARCA Services Inc., a Delaware corporation, and (iii) Connexx Services Inc, a Delaware corporation (collectively, the “Buyers”), pursuant to which the Buyers agreed to acquire substantially all of the assets, and assume certain liabilities, of ARCA and Connexx (the “Disposition Transaction”).  The principal of

the Buyers is Virland A. Johnson, our Chief Financial Officer. The Disposition Transaction was previously expected to be consummated on or before August 18, 2021 (the "Outside Date").  On August 12, 2021, the parties entered into an Amendment No. One to Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Recycling Sale Amendment”) to extend the Outside Date to September 30, 2021.  In the event the Disposition Transaction is not closed by such date, the Purchase Agreement may be terminated and, in accordance with its terms, the Buyers may be required to pay to us a “break fee” of $250.  The Purchase Agreement and the Disposition Transaction were unanimously approved by our Board of Directors at a meeting during the portion of which the Purchase Agreement and Disposition Transaction were considered and voted on Mr. Johnson was not present.

The purchase price that the Buyers have agreed to pay to us in the Disposition Transaction is $25,000, subject to certain adjustments, including a potential increase in the purchase price due to an earnout, the assumption of certain debt of ARCA, Connexx, or us, and potential indemnification claims (collectively, the “Initial Aggregate Consideration”). At closing, $7,500 of the Aggregate Consideration will be paid in immediately available funds, and $17,500 of the Initial Aggregate Consideration will be paid pursuant to the terms of the Buyers’ promissory note in our favor (the “Note”), which Note will bear interest at the rate of 6% per annum on the unpaid balance thereof.  The Buyers’ payment obligations under the Note will be subordinated to the Buyers’ obligations to their Disposition Transaction lender(s), with the terms of such subordination to be determined upon Buyers’ identification of their lender(s).  The parties have made customary representations, warranties, covenants, and indemnities in connection with the Disposition Transaction.

Commencing on February 19, 2021, (i) the Buyers will seek financing for the balance of the Initial Aggregate Consideration and (ii) the parties will prepare and negotiate the terms and conditions of certain ancillary documentation, including, without limitation, disclosure schedules, bills of sale, assignment and assumption agreements, the Note, and any related subordination documentation with Buyers’ Disposition Transaction lender(s).

The Purchase Agreement contains certain representations and warranties that the parties made to each other as of the date of the Purchase Agreement or such other date as specifically referenced therein.  The representations and warranties were made solely for purposes of the Purchase Agreement and (i) are subject to limitations agreed by the parties in negotiating the terms and conditions thereof, (ii) may not be accurate or complete as of any specified date, (iii) will be qualified by the underlying disclosure schedules, (iv) may be subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from those generally applicable to investors, and (v) may have been used for the purpose of allocating risk among the parties thereto, rather than for establishing any matters as facts.  Information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after February 19, 2021, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in JanOne’s public disclosures.  For the foregoing reasons, the representations and warranties contained in the Purchase Agreement should not be relied upon as statements of factual information.

The foregoing descriptions of the Purchase Agreement, as amended, and the Disposition Transaction do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed with the Current Report on Form 8‑K as filed on February 25, 2021 as Exhibit 10.1, and the Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.4 to this Form 10-Q, and each of which is incorporated herein by reference.
