Also enclosed is the Company’s Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS ACCEPT THE OFFER AND TENDER THEIR SHARES TO PURCHASER PURSUANT TO THE OFFER.
We or our nominees are the holder of record of Shares held for your account. A tender of such Shares can be made only by us as the holder of record and pursuant to your instructions. The Letter of Transmittal is furnished to you for your information only and cannot be used by you to tender Shares held by us for your account.
We request instructions as to whether you wish us to tender any or all of the Shares held by us for your account, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the enclosed Offer to Purchase and the Letter of Transmittal.
Please note carefully the following:
| 1. | The offer price for the Offer is $7.15 per Share in cash, which will be paid without interest and subject to any withholding of taxes required by applicable legal requirements. |
| 2. | The Offer is being made for all outstanding Shares. |
| 3. | The Offer is being made pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 6, 2024 (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), among the Company, Parent and Purchaser. The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, that unless otherwise agreed by the Company, Parent and Purchaser, as soon as practicable following the consummation of the Offer and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, Purchaser will merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”) and the separate existence of Purchaser will cease and the Company will continue as the surviving corporation and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement. The Merger will be governed by Section 251(h) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, and effected without a vote of the Company stockholders. |
| 4. | The Board of Directors of the Company has unanimously: (i) determined that the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Offer and the Merger, are advisable and fair to, and in the best interests of, the Company and its stockholders; (ii) adopted the Merger Agreement and approved the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Merger Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Offer and the Merger; and (iii) resolved to recommend that the stockholders of the Company accept the Offer and tender their Shares pursuant to the Offer. |
| 5. | The Offer will expire at one minute after 11:59 P.M., Eastern Time, on September 17, 2024, unless the Offer is extended by the Purchaser or earlier terminated. Previously tendered Shares may be withdrawn at any time until the Offer has expired, and if not previously accepted for payment at any time, after October 19, 2024, pursuant to SEC (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) regulations or earlier terminated in accordance with its terms or the terms of the Merger Agreement. |
| 6. | The Offer is not subject to a financing condition. The obligation of Purchaser to accept for payment and pay for Shares validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer is subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 15 of the Offer to Purchase (collectively, the “Offer Conditions”). Among the Offer Conditions are: (i) the Minimum Tender Condition (as defined in the Offer to Purchase); (ii) the Regulatory Condition (as defined in the Offer to Purchase); (iii) the HSR Condition (as defined in the Offer to Purchase); (iv) the Representations Condition (as defined in the Offer to Purchase); (v) the Obligations Condition (as defined in the Offer to Purchase); and (vi) the MAE Condition (as defined in the Offer to Purchase). |
If you wish to have us tender any or all of your Shares, then please so instruct us by completing, executing, detaching and returning to us the Instruction Form on the detachable part hereof. An envelope to return your instructions to us is enclosed. If you authorize tender of your Shares, all such Shares will be tendered unless otherwise specified on the Instruction Form.
Your prompt action is requested. Your Instruction Form should be forwarded to us in ample time to permit us to submit the tender on your behalf before the expiration of the Offer.
The Offer is being made to all holders of Shares. Purchaser is not aware of any jurisdiction in which the making of the Offer or the acceptance thereof would be prohibited by securities, “blue sky” or other valid laws of such jurisdiction. If Purchaser becomes aware of any U.S. state in which the making of the Offer or the acceptance of Shares pursuant thereto would not be in compliance with an administrative or judicial action taken pursuant to a U.S. state statute, Purchaser will make a good faith effort to comply with any such law. If, after such good faith effort, Purchaser cannot comply with any such law, the Offer will not be made to (nor will tenders be accepted from or on behalf of) the holders of Shares in such state. In any jurisdictions where applicable laws require the Offer to be made by a licensed broker or dealer, the Offer shall be deemed to be made on behalf of Purchaser by one or more registered brokers or dealers licensed under the laws of such jurisdiction to be designated by Purchaser.
