<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman', Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:justify;">On June 13, 2018, Twin Disc NL Holding, B.V. (&ldquo;Twin Disc NL&rdquo;), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Twin Disc, Incorporated (the &ldquo;Company&rdquo;), entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the &ldquo;Purchase Agreement&rdquo;) with Veth Motoren Holding, B.V. (&ldquo;Veth Motoren&rdquo;) to purchase all shares of capital stock of Veth Propulsion Holding, B.V. (&ldquo;Veth Propulsion Holding&rdquo;). Veth Propulsion Holding holds all of the shares of capital stock of Exploitatiemaatschappij Veth B.V., Veth Diesel B.V., Veth Electra B.V., Veth Propulsion B.V. and Veth Thrusters B.V. (the &ldquo;Veth Subsidiaries&rdquo;).</p>

<p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman', Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:justify;">Based in the Netherlands, the Veth Subsidiaries are global manufacturers of highly-engineered auxiliary propulsions and propulsion machinery for maritime vessels, including rudder propellers, bow thrusters, generator sets and engine service and repair. They have a strong presence in key European maritime markets, with deep and long-standing relationships with growing customers.</p>

<p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman', Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:justify;">Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Twin Disc NL will pay &euro;49,700,000 for the shares of Veth Propulsion Holding, increased by certain cash of Veth Propulsion Holding at closing (up to &euro;2,000,000) and decreased by certain debt of Veth Propulsion Holding at closing. These amounts are subject to adjustment to the extent that the working capital of Veth Propulsion Holding at closing exceeds or is less than a target working capital to be determined based on the twelve-month average working capital as of June 30, 2018. The maximum increase in the purchase price based on the working capital adjustment is &euro;2,000,000. Twin Disc NL will also pay an additional earn-out amount if the EBITDA of Veth Propulsion Holding (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) for fiscal 2018 exceeds &euro;6,450,000. No earn-out will be owed if the EBITDA of Veth Propulsion Holding for fiscal 2018 falls below &euro;6,450,000, and the maximum earn-out amount of &euro;3,300,000 will be paid if the EBITDA of Veth Propulsion Holding for fiscal 2018 exceeds &euro;6,800,000. The earn-out will be paid in the form of Company stock.</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman', Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:justify;">Veth Motoren has also agreed to various customary covenants and agreements regarding the Veth Subsidiaries, including covenants to cause the Veth Subsidiaries, during the period between the execution of the Agreement and the closing of the Purchase Agreement, to conduct their business in the ordinary course of business, as budgeted, and in a manner most likely to preserve their value, keeping each such business and its properties substantially intact.</p>

<p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman', Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:justify;">The closing of the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby is subject to certain conditions, including, among others, those relating to financing, the agreement to the terms of an employment agreement between Twin Disc NL and Mr. H.A. Veth, the accuracy of the parties&rsquo; representations and warranties, and other customary closing conditions.</p>

<p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman', Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:justify;">The Share Purchase Agreement may be terminated by mutual agreement of the parties at any time prior to closing, or by Twin Disc NL if certain conditions are not satisfied or waived by September 1, 2018 (or such later date as may be agreed to by the parties).</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman', Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:justify;">The above description of the Purchase Agreement has been included to provide investors with information regarding its terms. The Purchase Agreement contains representations and warranties made by and to the parties thereto as of specific dates. The statements embodied in those representations and warranties were made for the purpose of allocating risk between the parties rather than establishing matters as facts and are subject to qualifications and limitations agreed upon by the parties in connection with negotiating the terms of the Purchase Agreement. In addition, certain representations and warranties were made as of a specified date and may be subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from those generally applicable to investors. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Purchase Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Company&#39;s public disclosures. Accordingly, investors should not rely on the representations and warranties as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company or Veth Propulsion Holding, or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates.</p>

Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On June 13, 2018, Twin Disc NL Holding, B.V. ("Twin Disc NL"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Twin Disc, Incorporated (the "Company"), entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with Veth Motoren Holding, B.V. ("Veth Motoren") to purchase all shares of capital stock of Veth Propulsion Holding, B.V. ("Veth Propulsion Holding"). Veth Propulsion Holding holds all of the shares of capital stock of Exploitatiemaatschappij Veth B.V., Veth Diesel B.V., Veth Electra B.V., Veth Propulsion B.V. and Veth Thrusters B.V. (the "Veth Subsidiaries").
Based in the Netherlands, the Veth Subsidiaries are global manufacturers of highly-engineered auxiliary propulsions and propulsion machinery for maritime vessels, including rudder propellers, bow thrusters, generator sets and engine service and repair. They have a strong presence in key European maritime markets, with deep and long-standing relationships with growing customers.
Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Twin Disc NL will pay €49,700,000 for the shares of Veth Propulsion Holding, increased by certain cash of Veth Propulsion Holding at closing (up to €2,000,000) and decreased by certain debt of Veth Propulsion Holding at closing. These amounts are subject to adjustment to the extent that the working capital of Veth Propulsion Holding at closing exceeds or is less than a target working capital to be determined based on the twelve-month average working capital as of June 30, 2018. The maximum increase in the purchase price based on the working capital adjustment is €2,000,000. Twin Disc NL will also pay an additional earn-out amount if the EBITDA of Veth Propulsion Holding (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) for fiscal 2018 exceeds €6,450,000. No earn-out will be owed if the EBITDA of Veth Propulsion Holding for fiscal 2018 falls below €6,450,000, and the maximum earn-out amount of €3,300,000 will be paid if the EBITDA of Veth Propulsion Holding for fiscal 2018 exceeds €6,800,000. The earn-out will be paid in the form of Company stock.
Veth Motoren has also agreed to various customary covenants and agreements regarding the Veth Subsidiaries, including covenants to cause the Veth Subsidiaries, during the period between the execution of the Agreement and the closing of the Purchase Agreement, to conduct their business in the ordinary course of business, as budgeted, and in a manner most likely to preserve their value, keeping each such business and its properties substantially intact.
The closing of the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby is subject to certain conditions, including, among others, those relating to financing, the agreement to the terms of an employment agreement between Twin Disc NL and Mr. H.A. Veth, the accuracy of the parties' representations and warranties, and other customary closing conditions.
The Share Purchase Agreement may be terminated by mutual agreement of the parties at any time prior to closing, or by Twin Disc NL if certain conditions are not satisfied or waived by September 1, 2018 (or such later date as may be agreed to by the parties).
The Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement have been approved by the Board of Directors of the Company. The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Share Purchase Agreement, which will be filed as an exhibit to an amended Form 8-K.
The above description of the Purchase Agreement has been included to provide investors with information regarding its terms. The Purchase Agreement contains representations and warranties made by and to the parties thereto as of specific dates. The statements embodied in those representations and warranties were made for the purpose of allocating risk between the parties rather than establishing matters as facts and are subject to qualifications and limitations agreed upon by the parties in connection with negotiating the terms of the Purchase Agreement. In addition, certain representations and warranties were made as of a specified date and may be subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from those generally applicable to investors. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Purchase Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Company's public disclosures. Accordingly, investors should not rely on the representations and warranties as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company or Veth Propulsion Holding, or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates.
