Total consideration received by Mercury for this transaction is $76,300,000, subject to adjustment based on Mercury Air Centers, Inc.'s net working capital at the time of closing. The proceeds from the sale will be used to prepay outstanding long term debt and associated accrued interest of $41,300,000; post cash collateral in the amount of $16,000,000 in support of currently outstanding letters of credit; establish an escrow account of $8,300,000 to be distributed to Mercury, under certain terms and conditions associated with the FBO lease at the Hartsfield International Airport in Atlanta; and pay approximately $1,700,000 in transaction costs resulting in surplus cash at the close of the sale of approximately $9,000,000.
