**Item 1.02. Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.** 

*Termination of the Credit Agreement*

In connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement on March 20, 2023, IAA terminated the Credit Agreement, dated as of April 30, 2021 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Credit Agreement"), by and among IAA, as borrower, the other loan parties thereto, the lenders party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, collateral agent and issuing bank. In connection with the termination of the Credit Agreement, all outstanding borrowings and all unpaid fees thereunder were paid in full and all commitments thereunder were terminated.

*Redemption of Senior Notes*

In connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, on March 20, 2023, IAA redeemed all of IAA's 5.500% Senior Notes due 2027 (the "Senior Notes") issued pursuant to that certain Indenture, dated as of June 6, 2019, (the "Indenture") by and between IAA, the guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association. In accordance with the Indenture, IAA redeemed $500 million in the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes at a redemption price equal to 102.750% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon through but not including March 20, 2023.

**Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.** 

On March 20, 2023, RBA completed its acquisition of IAA pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the terms of which are described in Item 1.01 of each of the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") by IAA on November 7, 2022 and the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC by IAA on January 23, 2023, each of which Items is incorporated by reference herein.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, (i) Merger Sub 1 was merged with and into IAA (the "First Merger"), with IAA surviving the First Merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of US Holdings (the "Surviving Corporation") and (ii) immediately following the consummation of the First Merger, the Surviving Corporation was merged with and into Merger Sub 2 (the "Second Merger" and, together with the First Merger, the "Mergers"), with Merger Sub 2 surviving the Second Merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of US Holdings (such surviving entity, the "Surviving LLC").

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of IAA (the "IAA Common Stock") issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the First Merger (the "Effective Time") (excluding any shares of IAA Common Stock held by IAA as treasury stock, owned by RBA, US Holdings, Merger Sub 1 and Merger Sub 2 immediately prior to the Effective Time, or owned by stockholders of IAA ("IAA Stockholders") who have validly demanded and not withdrawn appraisal rights in accordance with Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law) was converted automatically into the right to receive: (A) 0.5252 (the "Exchange Ratio") of a common share, without par value, of RBA (the "RBA Common Shares") and (B) $12.80 in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes. Additionally, the holders of the outstanding IAA restricted stock awards ("IAA RSAs") and outstanding IAA phantom stock awards ("IAA Phantom Stock Awards") granted to a non-employee director of IAA pursuant to the IAA 2019 Omnibus Stock and Incentive Plan (the "IAA Equity Plan") and its Directors Deferred Compensation Plan (as defined in the Merger Agreement) received (i) 0.5252 of a common share of RBA and (ii) $12.80 in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes, in respect of each share of IAA Common Stock underlying such holder's IAA RSA or IAA Phantom Stock Award, as applicable. In respect of shares of IAA Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (including any IAA RSAs and IAA Phantom Stock Award that vested in accordance with their terms as of the Effective Time), RBA delivered approximately 70.3 million RBA common shares and approximately $1.7 billion in cash in the aggregate for payment to former IAA stockholders. IAA Stockholders received cash in lieu of any fractional RBA Common Shares to which they would otherwise be entitled.

In addition, with respect to IAA's outstanding equity awards, at the Effective Time:

• each outstanding IAA option ("IAA Option") to purchase shares of IAA Common Stock granted
under the IAA Equity Plan, whether vested or unvested, was assumed by RBA and converted into an option to purchase the number of RBA Common
Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the number of shares of IAA Common Stock
subject to such option immediately prior to the Effective Time by (ii) 0.763139 (the "Equity Award Exchange Ratio"), at an
exercise price per share (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to the exercise price per share of such option immediately prior
to the Effective Time divided by (y) the Equity Award Exchange Ratio;

• each outstanding IAA restricted stock unit award ("IAA RSU Award") granted pursuant to the
IAA Equity Plan that was subject solely to time-based vesting immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether vested or unvested, was
assumed by RBA and converted into the right to receive, upon vesting, the number of RBA Common Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole
share) equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the number of shares of IAA Common Stock subject to such award immediately prior
to the Effective Time by (ii) the Equity Award Exchange Ratio; and

• each outstanding IAA performance restricted stock unit award ("IAA PRSU Award") granted pursuant
to the IAA Equity Plan that was subject to performance-based vesting immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether vested or unvested,
was assumed by RBA and converted into the right to receive, upon vesting, the number of RBA Common Shares (rounded down to the nearest
whole share) equal to the product obtained by multiplying the number of shares of IAA Common Stock subject to such award immediately prior
to the Effective Time (determined based on the target number of shares subject to such award) by the Equity Award Exchange Ratio.

Except as set forth above, each assumed IAA Option, IAA RSU Award and IAA PRSU Award will be subject to the same terms and conditions, including vesting, exercise, expiration and/or forfeiture provisions (other than performance-based vesting provisions), applicable to the corresponding IAA equity award as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (including the terms of the IAA Equity Plan and the applicable award agreements).

RBA funded the cash component of the Merger Consideration with cash on hand and newly obtained debt financing.

The Merger Agreement is not intended to be a source of factual, business or operational information about RBA, IAA or their respective subsidiaries. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Merger Agreement were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreements, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the parties, including being qualified by disclosures for the purpose of allocating contractual risk between the parties instead of establishing matters as facts; and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors or security holders. Accordingly, investors should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the parties.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement contained in this Item 2.01 does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Merger Agreement. A copy of the Merger Agreement was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by IAA with the SEC on November 7, 2022 and a copy of the Amendment to the Merger Agreement was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by IAA with the SEC on January 23, 2023, and are incorporated herein by reference.

**Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer or Listing.** 

In connection with the consummation of the Mergers, IAA requested that the New York Stock Exchange suspend trading of the IAA Common Stock at the close of market trading on March 20, 2023 and file with the SEC a Notification of Removal from Listing and/or Registration on Form 25 to delist and deregister IAA Common Stock under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The net profits and losses of the Company shall be allocated among the Members pro rata according to the Shares of each Member as set forth on <u>Exhibit A</u> hereto. To the extent that funds are available, the Board of Managers shall cause the Company to distribute with respect to each fiscal year to each Member an amount of cash determined by the Managers in their sole discretion, but in any event on a pro rata basis in accordance with the Shares of each Member as set forth on <u>Exhibit A</u>. The Managers may cause the Company to make such additional distributions to the Member as the Board of Managers shall determine in its sole discretion, which distributions shall be made pro rata according to the Shares of each Member as set forth on <u>Exhibit A</u>. All distributions to the Members shall be made at such times and in such amounts as the Board of Managers shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. <u>Limitation on Liability; Indemnification</u>. Except as specifically required by the Act, no Member or Manager of the Company shall be obligated personally for any debt, obligation or liability of the Company, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, solely by reason of being a Member or Manager of the Company. The failure of the Company to observe any formalities or requirements relating to the exercise of its powers or the management of its business or affairs under this Agreement or the Act shall not be grounds for making any Member or Manager responsible for the liabilities of the Company. The Company shall indemnify each Manager and officer of the Company (each an "Indemnitee"), from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities (joint or several), expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys fees and other legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, settlements, and other amounts arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings (whether the same be civil, criminal, administrative or investigative) arising from the fact that such person is or was a Manager or officer of the Company, to the fullest extent permitted by the Act. The indemnification provided by this Section 13 shall be in addition to any other rights to which an Indemnitee may be entitled under any written agreement, as a matter of law or otherwise, and shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to serve in such capacity unless otherwise provided in a written agreement pursuant to which such Indemnitee is indemnified.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13. <u>Books and Records; Bank Accounts</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Board of Managers shall cause the Company to keep true and complete books of account with respect to the operations of the Company. Such books shall be maintained at the principal place of business of the Company, or at such other place as the Board of Managers shall determine, and all Members, and their duly authorized representatives, shall at all reasonable times have access to such books.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Such books shall be closed and balanced as of December 31 in each year. The same method of accounting shall be used for both Company accounting and tax purposes. The fiscal year of the Company shall be the calendar year, unless a different period is required as the taxable year of the Company for U.S. federal income tax purposes, in which case the fiscal year of the Company shall be the same as its taxable year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14. <u>Governing Law</u>. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic laws of the State of Delaware. In the event of any conflict between any provision of this Agreement and any non-mandatory provision of the Act, the provision of this Agreement shall control.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15. <u>Miscellaneous</u>. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, this Agreement may be changed, modified or amended only by a writing signed by the Members representing a majority of the outstanding Shares. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile or other form of electronic transmission and in a number of counterparts, all of which together shall for all purposes constitute one Agreement, binding on all the Members notwithstanding that all Members have not signed the same counterpart. This Agreement embodies the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to such subject matter.
