RECITALS:

 

WHEREAS, the Company and the Trustee have heretofore entered into that certain Indenture, dated as of March 5, 2018 (the “Indenture”), to provide for the issuance of up to $120,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2019 (the “Notes”);

 

WHEREAS, the Company, Gurnet Holding Company (“Parent”) and Gurnet Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 11, 2018 (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which Merger Sub commenced an offer to purchase any and all of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”), of the Company, at a purchase price of $12.50 per Share in cash, net of applicable withholding taxes and without interest (the “Closing Amount”), plus one non-transferable contingent value right per Share (each, a “CVR”), which represents the contractual right to receive $0.50 per Share, net to the seller in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes, following approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration of the New Drug Application for Corplex Donepezil, as described in and under the conditions set forth in the Contingent Value Rights Agreement (the “CVR Agreement”) (the Closing Amount plus one CVR, collectively being the “Offer Price”) upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, the offer to purchase, the related letter of transmittal and the notice of guaranteed delivery (the “Offer”).

 

WHEREAS, following the acceptance of the Shares tendered in the Offer by Merger Sub and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company pursuant to Section 251(h) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as amended (the “DGCL”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Merger”);

 

WHEREAS, as a result of the Merger, Shares not tendered in the Offer (other than the Shares to be cancelled in accordance with Sections 2.05(b) and 2.05(c) of the Merger Agreement and Shares owned by any stockholder who is entitled to demand and has properly exercised and perfected a demand for appraisal of such Shares pursuant to, and who has complied in all respects with, Section 262 of the DGCL and who, as of the effective time of the Merger, has neither effectively withdrawn nor lost such stockholder’s rights to such appraisal and payment under the DGCL with respect to such Shares) will be converted automatically into the right to receive the Offer Price and will also cease to be outstanding and will automatically be cancelled and cease to exist and each holder of such Shares will only have the right to receive the Offer Price (the “Merger Consideration”);

 

WHEREAS, Article 6 of the Indenture permits the Company to merge with and into another person so long as certain conditions have been met;

 

WHEREAS, Section 5.09(A) of the Indenture provides, among other things, that if there occurs any Common Stock Change Event, including a merger involving the Company in which the Common Stock represents solely the right to receive, other securities, cash or other property or any combination of the foregoing, then, from and after the effective time of such Common Stock Change Event, (i) the Conversion Consideration due upon conversion of any Notes, and the

 


 

conditions to any such conversion, will be determined in the same manner as if each reference to any number of shares of Common Stock in Article 5 (or any related definitions) of the Indenture were instead a reference to the same number of Reference Property Units and (ii) for purposes of Section 4.03 of the Indenture, each reference to any number of shares of Common Stock in such Section (or in any related definitions) will instead be deemed to be a reference to the same number of Reference Property Units;

 

WHEREAS, Section 5.09 of the Indenture provides that at or before the effective time of the Common Stock Change Event, the Company will execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture providing for (i) the subsequent conversion and settlement of the Notes as set forth in the Indenture, (ii) subsequent adjustments to the conversion rate in a manner consistent with the Indenture, and (iii) any other provisions as the Company reasonably determines are appropriate to preserve the economic interests of the Holders and to give effect to Section 5.09(a) of the Indenture;

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 5.09 of the Indenture, the Reference Property shall consist of the Merger Consideration;

 

WHEREAS, the Company may undertake a Business Combination Event subject to the provisions of Section 6.01 of the Indenture;

 

WHEREAS, Section 8.01(f) of the Indenture provides that, without the consent of any Holders of Notes, the Company and the Trustee may execute a supplemental indenture in accordance with Section 5.09, subject to the provisions of Section 8.06; and
