R E C I T A L S

 

WHEREAS, the Company intends, but has not made any public announcement of such intention, to conduct a public modified Dutch auction self-tender offer for up to $300 million in consideration (the “Total Consideration”) of shares of its Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”), at prices ranging from $66.00 to $72.50 per share (the “Price Range”), subject to the other terms and conditions thereof which shall be determined by the Company’s Board of Directors (or a designated committee thereof) (the “Board of Directors” and such offer, as it may be adopted or amended from time to time, the “Tender Offer”);

 

WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, the Sellers beneficially own (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3(d) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Rule 13d-3(d)”) or “Beneficially Own”), in the aggregate, 14,264,058 shares of the Class A Common Stock (including, in the aggregate, 13,085,282 shares of the Company’s Class B common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Class B Common Stock”) that are immediately convertible on a one-for-one basis into shares of Class A Common Stock), representing in the aggregate Beneficial Ownership of approximately 23.16% of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock as of July 1, 2016 (as determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d));

 

WHEREAS, upon the request of the Company, in order to maximize liquidity for other shareholders, not impact the purchase price received by shareholders participating in the Tender Offer and provide full transparency and certainty regarding the Sellers’ participation in the Company’s stock repurchase program, each Seller has determined not to exercise such Seller’s respective right to tender any of such Seller’s shares of Class A Common Stock (either owned as of the date hereof or issuable upon conversion of shares of Class B Common Stock or upon the exercise of currently exercisable options), either owned directly or by such Seller’s Entities (as hereinafter defined) pursuant to the Tender Offer;

 

WHEREAS, in connection with this Agreement, the Company has offered each Seller the opportunity to participate on a pro rata basis in the sales by the Sellers (and each such Seller’s Entities) contemplated by this Agreement and offered to Sellers who expressed a desire to participate fully in this Agreement the opportunity to participate on a greater than pro rata basis in relation to Sellers who have determined to participate on a less than pro rata basis, such that the Sellers in the aggregate have individually agreed to participate in this Agreement on the basis set forth in this Agreement; and

 

WHEREAS, the Company wishes to purchase from the Sellers severally, and the Sellers severally wish to sell to the Company, each such Seller’s Shares (as hereinafter defined), on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

 

 

 

 

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and promises set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Sellers hereby severally agree with the Company and the Company agrees with each Seller as follows:

1.3              The Closing. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the purchase and sale of the Shares contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) will take place at the offices of Curtis, Mallet-Prevost, Colt & Mosle LLP, 101 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10178 at 10:00 a.m., New York City time on the eleventh business day following the expiration date of the Tender Offer, or at such other later date or place as the parties shall mutually agree.
