Item 1.02    Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On October 28, 2008, Granahan McCourt Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”), Satellite Merger Corp., a Georgia corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), Pro Brand International, Inc., a Georgia corporation (“PBI”) and certain equity holders of PBI (collectively, “Sellers”) mutually agreed to terminate the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 24, 2008, as amended by Amendment No. 1, dated September 3, 2008, (the “Merger Agreement”) pursuant to Section 8.1 of the Merger Agreement (the “Mutual Termination Agreement”).

 

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub would have been merged with and into PBI, with PBI continuing as the surviving corporation.  The Merger Agreement provided that the purchase price payable at closing would have been $50 million in cash and $15 million in Company common stock.  PBI’s equity holders would have also become eligible for earnout payments based on PBI’s 2008, 2009 and 2010 EBITDA (adjusted to exclude, among other items, costs associated with SEC disclosure or with listing on a stock exchange, expenses incurred in connection with the merger, and fees payable to the Company and its affiliates on an ongoing basis).

 

Under the terms of the Mutual Termination Agreement, each party to the Mutual Termination Agreement agrees to release each other party from all liabilities and obligations arising out of or connected to the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

 

The Mutual Termination Agreement is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
