On May 25, 2023, the Company entered into the First Amendment to Rights Agreement (the “Amendment” and together with the Rights Agreement, the “Amended Rights Agreement”), by and between the Company and the Rights Agent in connection with the execution and delivery of the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, Tetris Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), and Desktop Metal, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Desktop Metal”), pursuant to which, among other things, Merger Sub will merge with and into Desktop Metal, with Desktop Metal surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”).
The Amendment, which was approved by the Board of the Company, extends the expiration date of the Rights Agreement to the later of (a) July 24, 2023 or (b) the conclusion of the Sun Shareholders’ Meeting (as defined in the Merger Agreement) (unless such Sun Shareholders’ Meeting has been validly adjourned or postponed, in which case at the final adjournment or postponement thereof) or such time as the Merger Agreement has been terminated in accordance with its terms. The Rights are in all respects subject to and governed by the provisions of the Amendment, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and incorporated herein by reference, and the Rights Agreement, which was included as an exhibit in the Company’s Form 8-A filing, dated July 25, 2022.
