Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

As previously disclosed by FBI Wind Down, Inc., formerly known as Furniture Brands International, Inc. (the “Company”), on September 9, 2013, the Company and its direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries (collectively with the Company, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”) seeking relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”). The Chapter 11 cases are being jointly administered under the caption “In re FBI Wind Down, Inc., et al.”, Case No. 13-12329 (the “Chapter 11 Cases”).

In addition, as previously disclosed by the Company, (i) on October 2, 2013, the Debtors entered into a “stalking horse” Asset Purchase Agreement (the “KPS Asset Purchase Agreement”) with certain affiliates of KPS Capital Partners L.P. as set forth in the KPS Asset Purchase Agreement (collectively, the “KPS Purchasers”), pursuant to which the KPS Purchasers agreed to purchase substantially all of the assets of the Company (such assets, the “Assets,” and such transaction, the “Asset Sale”) and (ii) on October 3, 2013, the Debtors obtained the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the KPS Purchasers as the “stalking horse” bidder in an auction of the Assets under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code.

On November 25, 2013, the Company completed the Asset Sale. The Asset Sale was conducted pursuant to the provisions of Sections 105, 363 and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code and was effected pursuant to the previously disclosed KPS Asset Purchase Agreement, as amended. In consideration for the sale of the Assets, the Company received total consideration of approximately $280,000,000, which was satisfied by cash and a “credit bid” (as defined within the meaning of Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code) of amounts owed under the Company’s postpetition secured credit agreement. In addition, the KPS Purchasers assumed specified liabilities as set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement.
