Item 1.01. |  | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On November 2, 2011, CVR Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Coffeyville Resources, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Buyer”) entered into a Stock Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with The Gary-Williams Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Seller Parent”), GWEC Holding Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Seller Parent (“Seller”), and Gary-Williams Energy Corporation, a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Seller (“GWEC”), pursuant to which Buyer agreed to acquire from Seller all of the issued and outstanding shares of GWEC, subject to the terms and conditions contained therein (the “Transaction”).
Summary of the Terms of the Agreement
Consideration. Upon signing of the Purchase Agreement, Buyer delivered a $26,250,000 deposit to Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds (“Purchase Price Deposit”). Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, at the closing of the Transaction, Buyer will pay Seller a purchase price of $525,000,000 in cash (less the Purchase Price Deposit), subject to certain adjustments based on the working capital of GWEC at the closing, as of now estimated to be $100,000,000 (the “Purchase Price”). $10,500,000 of the Purchase Price will be held in escrow to secure Seller’s obligations to indemnify Buyer.
Representations, Warranties, Covenants and Indemnifications. The Purchase Agreement contains various representations, warranties, covenants and indemnification obligations of Buyer and Seller. The representations and warranties of each party set forth in the Purchase Agreement have been made solely for the benefit of the other parties to the Purchase Agreement and such representations and warranties should not be relied on by any other person. In addition, such representations and warranties (i) have been qualified by disclosures made to the other party in connection with the Purchase Agreement, (ii) are subject to the materiality standards contained in the Purchase Agreement which may differ from what may be viewed as material by investors and (iii) were made only as of the date of the Purchase Agreement or such other date as is specified in the Purchase Agreement.
Closing Conditions. The closing of the Transaction is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain customary conditions to closing including, among others, expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 and the absence of any law, regulation, order or injunction prohibiting the Transaction. Each party’s obligation to consummate the Transaction is subject to certain other conditions, including the material accuracy of the representations and warranties of the other party (generally subject to a material adverse change standard); in the case of Buyer’s obligation, there being no material adverse change to GWEC after the signing of the Purchase Agreement; material compliance by the other party with its obligations under the Purchase Agreement. The closing of the Transaction is not subject to approval by the stockholders of Buyer or to any financing condition.
Termination. The Agreement contains certain customary termination rights for both Buyer and Seller, including the right of either party to terminate in the event that the transaction has not been completed by March 31, 2012.

Bridge Facility
On November 2, 2011, the Buyer entered into a commitment letter with affiliates of Deutsche Bank (“DB”), The Royal Bank of Scotland (“RBS”) and Barclays (“Barclays” and, together with DB and RBS, the “Agents”) regarding a senior secured one year bridge loan facility (the “Bridge Facility”). Subject to the terms and conditions of the commitment letter, if the Bridge Facility is entered into, the Bridge Facility would provide Buyer with up to $275.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior secured bridge loans (the “Bridge Loans”) on the closing of the Transaction (the “Closing Date”). The minimum draw under the Bridge Facility is $150.0 million.
The Bridge Loans will be the Buyer’s senior secured obligation and rank pari passu with the Buyer’s existing 9% first lien senior secured notes due 2015 (the “Existing Notes”). The interest rate per annum will be equal to the Existing Notes yield to maturity, reset quarterly, plus a spread that increases on certain dates after the Closing Date, up to a cap. The Bridge Loans will be prepayable, at the Buyer’s option, for one year without penalty. If the Bridge Loans are not paid in full on the one year anniversary of the Closing Date, amounts outstanding will be converted into a senior secured term loan facility (the “Extended Term Loans”) with a four year term.
Funding of the Senior Secured Bridge Loans will be subject to certain conditions including, among others: the accuracy of certain representations made by GWEC; no Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) having occurred with respect to GWEC; no material amendments or waivers under the Purchase Agreement that would be materially adverse to the lenders; no change to debt contemplated to be outstanding on a pro forma basis with limited exceptions; provision of required financial statements and projections; and delivery of a confidential information memorandum for the Senior Secured Bridge Loan at least ten business days before the Closing Date.
The Credit Documentation will contain customary representations and warranties. The affirmative covenants, negative covenants, and events of default will be substantially identical to those contained in the indenture governing the Existing Notes. Additionally, there will be an affirmative covenant to use commercially reasonable efforts to assist the lenders in refinancing the Senior Secured Bridge Loans. There will not be any financial covenants.
The commitments under the commitment letter expire on March 31, 2012.
