| 16:18 EDT |  | SSYS | Stratasys to acquire MakerBot
Stratasys and MakerBot announced the signing of a definitive merger agreement whereby privately held MakerBot has agreed to merge with a subsidiary of Stratasys in a stock-for-stock transaction. MakerBot, founded in 2009, helped develop the desktop 3D printing market and has built the largest installed base of 3D printers in the category by making 3D printers highly accessible. MakerBot will operate as a separate subsidiary of Stratasys, maintaining its own identity, products and go-to-market strategy. Under the terms of the merger agreement, Stratasys will initially issue approximately 4.76M shares in exchange for 100% of the outstanding capital stock of MakerBot. The proposed merger has an initial value of $403M based on Stratasys' closing stock price of $84.60 as of June 19. MakerBot stakeholders also qualify for performance-based earn-outs that provide for the issue of up to an additional 2.38M shares through the end of 2014. The proposed earn-out payments have an initial value of up to $201M based on the Stratasys closing stock price as of June 19. Those payments, if earned, will be made in Stratasys shares or cash (in an amount reflecting the value of the Stratasys shares that would have otherwise been issued at the relevant earn out determination date), or a combination thereof, at Stratasys' discretion. The merger is expected to accelerate Stratasys' growth rate and be slightly dilutive to Non-GAAP earnings per share in 2013, and accretive to Stratasys' Non-GAAP earnings per share by the end of 2014. |

Vectren (VVC) announced effective June 18, ProLiance Holdings, has disposed of certain of the net assets, along with the long term pipeline and storage commitments, of its wholesale natural gas marketing subsidiary, ProLiance Energy, to a subsidiary of Energy Transfer (ETP).

The loss associated with the disposition by Vectren's unconsolidated subsidiary, ProLiance, has no material cash flow impact to Vectren. Through the date of the disposition, Vectren's share of the 2013 expected operating losses are estimated to be (10c)-(12c) per share. |
