Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On November 30, 2015, the Company announced that its operating subsidiary, EVERTEC Group, LLC and the selling shareholders of Processa S.A.S agreed to extend the contractually agreed upon period for each of the parties to satisfy all conditions to closing before the purchase agreement becomes terminable for an additional 30 calendar days to December 28, 2015. The purchase agreement provides for EVERTEC to acquire 65% of the share capital of Processa S.A.S., a Colombian company that is based in Bogotá. Previously, the purchase agreement provided the right of either EVERTEC or the selling shareholders to terminate the transaction if it had not closed as of November 28, 2015. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of US federal bank regulatory approval. There is no assurance that such approval will be obtained prior to December 28, 2015 or at all.
A copy of the press release announcing the transaction discussed above is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
