Introductory Note
This Current Report on Form 8-K is being filed
in connection with the completion by QXO, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“QXO”), of the acquisition of TopBuild Corp.,
a Delaware corporation (“TopBuild”), pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 18, 2026 (the
“Merger Agreement”), by and among QXO, TopBuild, Titanium MergerCo, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary
of QXO (“Titanium Merger Sub”), and Titanium MergerCo 2, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned
subsidiary of QXO (“Forward Merger Sub”).
| Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
Term Loan Facility Amendment
General
On July 1, 2026, upon the consummation of the
TopBuild Acquisition (as defined below), QXO Building Products, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower” or the
“Issuer”), entered into that certain Incremental Assumption and Amendment Agreement No. 2 (the “Term Loan
Amendment”), by and among the Borrower, Queen HoldCo, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary
of QXO (“Holdings”), the Subsidiary Guarantors (as defined below), the lenders party thereto and the Goldman Sachs
Bank USA, as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”), which amended that certain Term Loan
Credit Agreement, dated as of April 29, 2025 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Term
Loan Credit Agreement”), by and among the Borrower, Holdings, the lenders party thereto and the Administrative Agent, which
credit agreement originally provided for senior secured financing consisting of a term loan facility (the “Existing Term Loan
Facility”). Pursuant to the Term Loan Amendment, among other things, the Borrower incurred additional senior secured financing
consisting of an incremental term loan facility (the “Incremental Term Loan Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount
of $3.0 billion.
The Borrower borrowed the entire $3.0 billion and
used the borrowings under the Incremental Term Loan Facility, together with the proceeds from the Borrower’s previously announced
Notes offering, proceeds from the issuance of 100,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock (as defined below) and available balance sheet
cash to fund the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and to pay related fees and expenses.
The Incremental Term Loan Facility will mature
on July 1, 2033.
Interest Rates and Fees
Borrowings under the Incremental Term Loan Facility
bear interest at a rate equal to, at the Borrower’s option, either (a) a Term SOFR determined by reference to the secured overnight
financing rate published by an administrator therefor, which rate shall not be subject to a floor, or (b) a base rate determined
by reference to the highest of (i) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% per annum, (ii) the prime rate of Goldman Sachs Bank USA
and (iii) the sum of one-month Term SOFR plus 1.00% per annum, plus, for each of Term SOFR and the base rate, an applicable margin
set forth in the Term Loan Credit Agreement.
Amortization and Prepayments
The Incremental Term Loan Facility requires scheduled
quarterly amortization payments in an annual amount equal to 1.0% of the original principal amount of the term loans borrowed on the effective
time of the Titanium Merger, with the balance to be paid at maturity.
The Borrower can make voluntary prepayments of
term loans under the Incremental Term Loan Facility at any time without penalty, except in connection with a repricing event as described
below, subject to customary breakage costs.
In respect of the Incremental Term Loan Facility,
any refinancing through the issuance of certain debt or any repricing amendment, in either case, that constitutes a “repricing event”
applicable to the term loans resulting in a lower yield occurring at any time during the first six months after the closing date of the
Incremental Term Loan Facility will be accompanied by a 1.00% prepayment premium or fee, as applicable.
The terms, conditions
and covenants applicable to the Incremental Term Loan Facility are otherwise consistent with the terms, conditions and covenants applicable
to the Existing Term Loan Facility.
The foregoing description
of the Term Loan Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Term Loan Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this
Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
| Item 2.01 | Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets. |
On July 1, 2026, QXO completed the previously announced
acquisition of TopBuild (the “TopBuild Acquisition”), pursuant to the Merger Agreement.
On July 1, 2026, pursuant to the terms of the
Merger Agreement, Titanium Merger Sub merged with and into TopBuild (the “Titanium Merger”), with TopBuild surviving
the Titanium Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of QXO and immediately thereafter, TopBuild merged with and into Forward Merger Sub
(the “Forward Merger” and, together with the Titanium Merger, the “Merger”), with Forward Merger
Sub surviving the Forward Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of QXO. At the effective time of the Titanium Merger, by virtue of the
Titanium Merger and without any action on the part of any holder thereof, each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of TopBuild
(“TopBuild Shares”) issued and outstanding immediately prior thereto (other than certain excluded shares, cancelled
shares and dissenting shares) was converted into the right to receive, at the election of the holder and subject to proration as described
in the Merger Agreement, one of the following forms of merger consideration: (i) an amount in cash equal to $505.00 per TopBuild
Share (the “Cash Consideration”) or (ii) 20.200 shares of QXO common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (“QXO
Shares”), per TopBuild Share (the “Stock Consideration”). TopBuild Shares in respect of which no cash election
or stock election was validly made were treated as having elected to receive the Stock Consideration in accordance with the terms of
the Merger Agreement.
TopBuild stockholders of record of
approximately 91.0% of the outstanding shares of TopBuild common stock elected to receive the Cash Consideration and, in accordance with
the proration procedures in the Merger Agreement, all of such outstanding shares of TopBuild common stock were converted into the
right to receive approximately 249.67 in cash and 10.212 shares of QXO common stock per share of TopBuild common stock, subject to final calculation by the exchange agent.
In connection with the Merger, QXO issued approximately
312.5 million QXO Shares to former holders of TopBuild Shares and paid aggregate cash consideration of approximately $6.4 billion.
The foregoing descriptions of the TopBuild Acquisition,
the Merger and the Merger Agreement in this Item 2.01 do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the full text
of the Merger Agreement, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to QXO’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April
20, 2026, and is incorporated by reference herein.
| Item 2.03 | Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation Under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant. |
The information
required by this Item 2.03 is set forth under Item 1.01 above and is hereby incorporated by reference in response to this Item.
| Item 3.03 | Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders. |
On July 1, 2026, QXO filed a certificate of amendment
(the “Amendment”) to the Company’s certificate of designations for the Company’s Series C Convertible Perpetual
Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Amendment
increased the number of authorized shares of Series C Preferred Stock from 200,000 shares to 300,000 shares. The Amendment became effective
upon filing.
The foregoing description of the terms of the Amendment
is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and is incorporated herein
by reference.

Board of his intent to resign from his position as a member of the Board to focus on other commitments, effective July 1, 2026. The decision
by Mr. Kushner to resign from the Board was not the result of any disagreement with QXO on any matter regarding QXO’s operations,
policies or practices.

of Mr. Covington was made pursuant to the requirements of the Merger Agreement but was not otherwise made pursuant to any arrangement
or understanding with any other person, and he has not entered into (or proposed to enter into) any transactions required to be reported

2026 (pro-rated based on the effective date of his appointment). Mr. Covington does not have any family relationship with QXO’s

QXO Completes Acquisition of TopBuild
Deal Expected to Be Substantially
Accretive to QXO’s Earnings
GREENWICH, Conn. — July 1, 2026 —
QXO, Inc. (NYSE: QXO) today announced it has completed its previously disclosed acquisition of TopBuild Corp. The transaction significantly
expands QXO’s scale and capabilities across the building products value chain. QXO now holds leadership positions in key building
product categories in North America:
| · | #1 or #2 in the lumber and building materials sector, in key geographies served |
The company also announced that Alec Covington, TopBuild’s
former Chairman, joined QXO’s Board of Directors, effective immediately. Mr. Covington replaces Jared Kushner, who has resigned
from the Board of Directors to focus on government service.
Brad Jacobs, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
of QXO, said, “By acquiring TopBuild, we’re broadening our product offering, adding installation capabilities, and expanding
our exposure to fast-growing end markets like data centers. By 2030, we expect to generate at least $300 million in annual synergies largely
from procurement, pricing, and cross-selling, while applying TopBuild’s operational excellence across QXO. The transaction is expected
to be highly accretive to earnings and advance our plan to build a world-class company with $50 billion in revenue. I’m grateful
to Jared for his significant contributions to the company, and I’m pleased to welcome Alec to the Board.”
Under the terms of the merger agreement, former TopBuild
shareholders received cash, shares of QXO’s common stock, or a combination of both, based on their elections and subject to proration
and the other terms and conditions in the merger agreement.
With the acquisition complete, TopBuild is now a
wholly owned subsidiary of QXO, and its shares stopped trading on the New York Stock Exchange before the market opened today.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC acted as lead financial
advisor to QXO, and Barclays and Wells Fargo Securities acted as additional financial advisors to QXO. Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton &
