Following the completion of the transaction, Skechers will continue to execute its ongoing strategic initiatives including designing award-winning and innovative product, international development, direct-to-consumer expansion, domestic wholesale growth, and strategic investments in global distribution, infrastructure and technology. Upon completion of the transaction, the Company’s common stock will no longer be listed on the New York Stock Exchange, and Skechers will become a private company. The transaction will be financed through a combination of cash provided by 3G Capital as well as debt financing that has been committed by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.

Parent currently expects to borrow approximately $165.0 million less first lien debt than the committed amount of first lien term loans and bridge loans. The obligations of the Debt Financing Sources to provide the Debt Financing under the Debt Commitment Letter are subject to a number of customary conditions. In case of termination, Skechers will be required to pay 3G Capital, Inc. a termination fee of $339,883,891. In addition, 3G Capital, Inc. will be required to pay the Company a termination fee of $534,103,258.
