Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Merger Agreement
On
The Company's board of directors (the "Board") unanimously determined that the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are advisable and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders and approved the Merger Agreement, the Merger, and the other transactions contemplated thereby. Subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Board also unanimously resolved to recommend the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the Company's stockholders.
As a result of the Merger, except as otherwise provided in the Merger Agreement,
each share of common stock, par value
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time:
• each Company stock option, whether or not vested, shall automatically and
without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, vest (if unvested) and if not exercised by the holder thereof as of the Effective Time (after notice and a reasonable period to elect the exercise of such Company stock option) be cancelled and, if the exercise price per share is less than the Merger Consideration, be converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (i) the excess, if any, of (A) the Merger Consideration over (B) the per-share exercise price for such option, multiplied by (ii) the total number of shares of common stock underlying such option; if the exercise price per share is equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration, such option if not exercised shall be cancelled without any cash payment or other consideration being made in respect thereof;
• each then-outstanding Company restricted stock unit ("RSU") will automatically
and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, be assumed by Parent and converted into the right to receive an amount of cash, without interest, equal to the product of (i) the total number of shares of common stock underlying such RSU, multiplied by (ii) the Merger Consideration, plus any dividend equivalent amounts accrued with respect to such RSU (the "RSU Consideration"), and each converted RSU held by an individual who is expected to be a continuing employee shall continue to have and be subject to substantially the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such RSU immediately before the Merger, including payment terms and remaining vesting conditions, but with vesting terms adjusted for any right to accelerated vesting that may apply after the Effective Time under the terms of any Company equity plan, equity award agreement, or Company severance plan currently in effect that may be applicable;
• each then-outstanding Company performance stock unit ("PSU") will automatically
and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, be assumed by Parent and converted into the right to receive an amount of cash, without interest, equal to the product of (i) the total number of shares of common stock earned under such PSU, with performance measured in accordance with the terms of the applicable governing documents (e.g. based on the attainment of the applicable performance metrics through the date of the Merger) as determined by the board of directors of the Company or a committee thereof after consultation with Parent, multiplied by (ii) the Merger Consideration, plus any dividend equivalent amounts accrued with respect to such PSU (the "PSU Consideration"), and each converted PSU held by an individual who is expected to be a continuing employee shall generally continue to have and be subject to substantially the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such PSU immediately before the Merger (aside from terms related to performance vesting that shall no longer apply following the Effective Time), including payment terms and remaining time-vesting conditions, but with vesting terms adjusted for any right to accelerated vesting that may apply after the Effective Time under the terms of any Company equity plan, equity award agreement, or Company severance plan currently in effect that may be applicable; and
• each RSU and PSU held by an individual (whether an employee, non-employee
director, or independent contractor) who is not expected to be a continuing
employee shall, automatically and without any required action on the part of
the holder thereof, vest (if unvested) and be cancelled and converted into the
right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the RSU
Consideration or PSU Consideration, as applicable.
If the Merger is consummated, the Company's securities will be de-listed from
Conditions to the Merger and Closing
Consummation of the Merger is subject to customary closing conditions, including (i) the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (the "Requisite Stockholder Approval"), (ii) the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, and the expiration of applicable waiting periods or clearance of the Merger, as applicable, under the antitrust and foreign investment laws of certain other jurisdictions, (iii) absence of any law or order, issued by certain governmental authorities of competent jurisdiction, prohibiting the Merger, (iv) no Company Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Merger Agreement) having occurred since the date of the Merger Agreement and (v) other customary closing conditions. Completion of the Merger is not subject to a financing condition.
Regulatory Efforts
The parties to the Merger Agreement have agreed to use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and to cause the conditions to the Merger to be satisfied as expeditiously as practicable. In furtherance thereof, Parent and Acquisition Sub have agreed to take promptly any and all steps necessary or reasonably advisable or as may be required by any governmental authority to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment and obtain all consents under any antitrust laws that may be required by any governmental authority so as to enable the parties to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the Merger, as expeditiously as possible.
Non-Solicitation of Competing Offers
From the execution of the Merger Agreement until the earlier of the Effective Time and the termination of the Merger Agreement, the Company must comply with customary non-solicitation restrictions. Subject to certain customary "fiduciary out" exceptions, the Board is required to recommend that the Company's stockholders vote in favor of the approval of the Merger, the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. However, the Company may, prior to the receipt of the Requisite Stockholder Approval, make an Adverse Recommendation Change (as defined in the Merger Agreement) in connection with a Superior Proposal or Intervening Event (each as defined the Merger Agreement) if the Company complies with certain notice and other requirements set forth in the Merger Agreement, including the payment of the Termination Fee to Parent or its designee (as defined in the Merger Agreement).
Termination and Fees
Either the Company or Parent may terminate the Merger Agreement in certain
circumstances, including if (i) the Merger shall not have been consummated on or
before
The Company may terminate the Merger Agreement if (i) Parent or Acquisition Sub materially breaches, and does not cure, any representation or covenant that would cause any conditions to the Company's obligation to consummate the Merger not to be satisfied or (ii) all conditions to the Merger have been and continue to be satisfied (subject to customary exceptions) and Parent fails to consummate the Merger after receiving written notification from the Company. . . .
