Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
On January 1, 2021, Builders FirstSource, Inc., a Delaware corporation
("Builders FirstSource"), completed its previously announced all stock merger
transaction with BMC Stock Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("BMC"),
pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 26, 2020 (as
amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the
"Merger Agreement"), by and among Builders FirstSource, Boston Merger Sub I
Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Builders
FirstSource ("Merger Sub"), and BMC. On the terms and subject to the conditions
set forth in the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger on
January 1, 2021 (the "Effective Time"), Merger Sub merged with and into BMC,
with BMC continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary
of Builders FirstSource (the "Merger").
On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, at
the Effective Time, each issued and outstanding share of the common stock, par
value $0.01 per share, of BMC (the "BMC Common Stock") was automatically
converted into the right to receive 1.3125 shares (the "Exchange Ratio") of
common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Builders FirstSource (the "BLDR
Common Stock"). No fractional shares of BLDR Common Stock were issued in the
Merger, and holders of shares of BMC Common Stock are entitled to receive cash
in lieu of any such fractional shares.
Each outstanding BMC stock option held by an individual who was, as of
immediately prior to the Effective Time, an employee or other service-provider
of BMC or its subsidiaries became, at the Effective Time, an option to purchase,
on the same terms and conditions (including applicable vesting, exercise and
expiration provisions) applicable to each such BMC stock option as of
immediately prior to the Effective Time, shares of BLDR Common Stock, with the
number of shares subject to such option and the exercise price adjusted by the
Exchange Ratio. Each outstanding BMC stock option held by an individual who was
not, as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, an employee or other
service-provider of BMC or its subsidiaries was cancelled and converted at the
Effective Time into the right to receive cash in an amount equal to the product
of (i) the number of shares of BMC Common Stock subject to such BMC stock option
as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) the excess, if any, of
the average closing market value of 1.3125 shares of BLDR Common Stock for the
ten trading days ending one trading day preceding January 1, 2021, over the
applicable exercise price per share of such BMC stock option, subject to
applicable withholding taxes. Each outstanding BMC time-based and
performance-based restricted stock unit vested at the Effective Time and settled
in a number of shares of BLDR Common Stock equal to the number of shares of BMC
Common Stock otherwise issuable upon settlement of such BMC restricted stock
unit (assuming target level of performance for performance-based awards),
multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, and subject to applicable withholding taxes.
The issuance of the shares of BLDR Common Stock as consideration in the Merger
as described above was registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Securities Act"), pursuant to the registration statement on Form S-4 (File
No. 333-249376), filed with the SEC by Builders FirstSource and declared
effective on November 18, 2020. The joint proxy statement/prospectus, dated
November 18, 2020, included in the registration statement contains additional
information about the above-described transactions.

on January 4, 2021, subject to and conditioned upon the completion of the
