Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
     On December 3, 2007, CLARCOR Inc., a Delaware corporation (“CLARCOR”), completed its acquisition of Perry Equipment Corporation, a Texas corporation (“PECO”), pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 17, 2007 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among CLARCOR, PECO Acquisition Company, a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of CLARCOR (“Merger Sub”), PECO, and PECO Management LLC, as the Shareholder Representative.
     Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, PECO was merged with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of CLARCOR. The merger consideration paid to the shareholders of PECO at closing was approximately $163,000,000 (subject to certain adjustments described below), consisting of (i) 2,137,797 shares of CLARCOR common stock, par value $1.00 per share and (ii) cash in the amount of approximately 80,050,000. The amount of the merger consideration is subject to a post-closing adjustment based on the adjusted working capital of PECO as of the closing, which is currently anticipated to be favorable to CLARCOR. Of the merger consideration, $6,000,000 in cash and 278,513 shares of CLARCOR common stock having an approximate fair market value of $10,000,000 (the “Escrowed Fund”) has been deposited in escrow to cover any claim by CLARCOR for indemnification in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement. All of the Escrowed Fund will be available to satisfy any claims made on or prior to January 31, 2009, $10,000,000 will be available to satisfy certain claims made on or prior to January 31, 2011 and $5,000,000 will be available to satisfy certain claims made on or prior to January 31, 2014.
     The Company will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) the financial statements and pro forma financial information required to be filed pursuant to Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X and Article 11 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, within 71 days of the date on which this Current Report on Form 8-K was required to be filed with the SEC.
