Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On July 22, 2013, Boise Cascade Company (the “Company”) entered into a Share Repurchase Agreement with Boise Cascade Holdings, L.L.C. (“BC Holdings”). The Share Repurchase Agreement provides that the Company will repurchase from BC Holdings approximately $100.0 million in value of its common stock (the “Repurchase”) concurrently with the closing of the previously announced secondary offering by BC Holdings; provided that the Repurchase occurs within 15 business days from the date hereof.  The purchase price for the repurchased shares will equal the net price to be paid by the underwriters in connection with the secondary offering.  The Company expects to fund the Repurchase with cash on hand.  Closing of the Repurchase is contingent on the closing of the secondary offering.

 

On July 19, 2013, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, as borrowers, entered into the fourth amendment to its revolving credit facility (the “Amendment”), with Wells Fargo Capital Finance, LLC, as administrative agent for the lenders, and the lenders party thereto.  The Amendment permits the consummation of the Repurchase in an amount not to exceed $100.0 million at any time prior to August 20, 2013.

 

The foregoing summaries of the Amendment and the Repurchase Agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Repurchase Agreement and the Amendment, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, and incorporated by reference herein.

 

The shares of the Company’s common stock to be sold in the secondary offering have not yet been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (as amended, the “Securities Act”), or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction, and may not be offered or sold in the United States without registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities or blue sky laws and foreign securities laws.  Neither this filing nor the description of the secondary offering or the Repurchase contained herein constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of the shares of the Company’s common stock, in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
