Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On September 7, 2021, Compass Diversified Holdings (the “Trust”) and Compass Group Diversified Holdings LLC (the “Company” and, together with the Trust, “CODI”), together with Compass Group Management LLC, entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with B. Riley Securities, Inc. (“B. Riley”) and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman”), pursuant to which CODI may sell common shares of the Trust having an aggregate offering price of up to $500 million (the “Shares”), from time to time through B. Riley and Goldman, acting as sales agents and/or principals (each a “Sales Agent” and, collectively, the “Sales Agents”).
Pursuant to the Sales Agreement, the Shares may be offered and sold through each Sales Agent, acting separately, in ordinary brokers’ transactions, to or through a market maker, on or through the New York Stock Exchange or any other market venue where the securities may be traded, in the over-the-counter market, in privately negotiated transactions, in transactions that are deemed to be “at the market offerings” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act or through a combination of any such methods of sale. Under the Sales Agreement, each Sales Agent will be entitled to compensation equal to 1.75% of the gross proceeds of the Shares it sells from time to time under the Sales Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Sales Agreement, the Sales Agents will use their commercially reasonable efforts to sell on CODI’s behalf any Shares to be offered by CODI under the Sales Agreement. CODI has no obligation to sell any of the Shares under the Sales Agreement, and CODI or any Sales Agent may at any time suspend sales of Shares under the Sales Agreement.
The Shares will be issued pursuant to CODI’s Registration Statement on
