Item 2.   Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

 

On December 16, 2003, K2 Inc. (the “Company”) announced that it had completed the merger of Brass Eagle Inc. (“Brass Eagle”) with a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of October 22, 2003, by and among the Company, Brass Eagle and Cabe Acquisition Sub, Inc. (“Acquisition Sub”).

 

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company commenced an offer to exchange each outstanding share of common stock of Brass Eagle for 0.6036 of a share of common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of the Company (the “Offer”). The Offer expired at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Monday, December 8, 2003. At approximately 12:06 a.m., New York City time, on Tuesday, December 9, 2003, the Company accepted for purchase all shares of common stock validly tendered and not withdrawn prior to the expiration of the Offer. At the expiration of the Offer, 7,167,751 shares of common stock were validly tendered and not withdrawn, representing approximately 95.7% of the outstanding common stock, and 4,326,454 shares of the Company’s common stock were exchanged in the Offer for such validly tendered and not withdrawn shares of common stock. On Thursday, December 11, 2003, the Company caused Acquisition Sub to merge with and into Brass Eagle (the “Merger”), pursuant to which Brass Eagle survived as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. In connection with the Merger, each outstanding share of Common Stock of the Issuer was automatically converted into the right to receive 0.6036 of a share of common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of the Company and, assuming no appraisal rights are exercised, an additional 194,774 shares of the Company’s common stock were issued in the Merger.
