On June 9, 2015, Global Defense & National Security Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that on June 8, 2015, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) with STG Group, Inc. (“STG”); the stockholders of STG Group, Inc.; Simon Lee, as Stockholders’ Representative; and Global Defense & National Security Holdings LLC. A copy of the press release is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

The foregoing (including Exhibit 99.1) is being furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 and shall not be deemed to be filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise be subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed to be incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act.

 

Additional Information About the Transaction and Where to Find It

 

In connection with the proposed transaction of STG by the Company pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, the Company will file a proxy statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Company also intends to file a proxy statement with the SEC for a proposal to extend the date before which it must complete a business combination from July 24, 2015 to October 24, 2015 (the “Extension Proposal”). Investors are urged to read these proxy statements (including all amendments and supplements) because they will contain important information. Investors may obtain free copies of the proxy statements when they become available, as well as other filings containing information about the Company, without charge, at the SEC’s Internet site (http://www.sec.gov). The definitive proxy statements will be mailed to stockholders of the Company as of a record date to be established for voting upon the proposed transaction and Extension Proposal, as applicable. These documents may also be obtained for free from the Company’s Investor Relations web site (http://investor.gdef.com/) or by directing a request to the Company at: Global Defense & National Security Systems, Inc., 11921 Freedom Drive, Suite 550, Two Fountain Square, Reston, VA 20190.

 

The Company and its officers and directors may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from the Company’s stockholders. Information about the Company’s executive officers and directors is set forth in its Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on March 25, 2015. Investors may obtain more detailed information regarding the direct and indirect interests of the Company and its respective executive officers and directors in the transaction by reading the preliminary and definitive proxy statements regarding the transaction and the Extension Proposal, which will be filed with the SEC.

 

 
 

 

Forward Looking Statements

 

This written communication contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including risks and uncertainties concerning the Company’s proposed business combination with STG, STG’s expected financial performance, as well as STG’s strategic and operational plans. Forward-looking statements relate to expectations, beliefs, projections, future plans and strategies, anticipated events or trends and similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts. Terms such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “should,” “would” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Actual events or results may differ materially from those described in this written communication due to a number of risks and uncertainties. The potential risks and uncertainties include, among others, the possibility that the proposed business combination transaction will not close or that the closing may be delayed; the reaction of customers to the transaction; general economic conditions; the possibility that the Company may be unable to obtain stockholder approval as required for the transaction or that the other conditions to the closing of the transaction may not be satisfied; the transaction may involve unexpected costs, liabilities or delays; the outcome of any legal proceedings related to the transaction; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the transaction agreement. In addition, please refer to the documents that the Company files with the SEC on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K. The filings by the Company identify and address other important factors that could cause its financial and operational results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements set forth in this written communication.
