| Item 1.01. | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On August 24, 2014, American National Bankshares Inc. (“American National”) and MainStreet BankShares, Inc. (“MainStreet”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) pursuant to which MainStreet will merge with and into American National (the “Merger”). American National will be the surviving corporation in the Merger. The Merger Agreement was approved by the Boards of Directors of both companies.
As a result of the Merger, the holders of shares of MainStreet common stock will receive $3.46 in cash and 0.482 shares of American National common stock for each share of MainStreet common stock held immediately prior to the effective date of the Merger. Each share of American National common stock outstanding immediately prior to the Merger will continue to be outstanding after the Merger. Each option to purchase shares of MainStreet common stock that is outstanding immediately prior to the effective date of the Merger will vest upon the Merger and be converted into an option to purchase shares of American National common stock, adjusted based on a 0.643 exchange ratio.
It is expected that immediately following the Merger, Franklin Community Bank, National Association, MainStreet’s wholly-owned bank subsidiary, will be merged with and into American National Bank and Trust Company (“American National Bank”), American National’s wholly-owned bank subsidiary.
Following the Merger, Joel R. Shepherd, current Chairman of the Board of Directors of MainStreet, will be appointed to American National’s Board of Directors, subject to prior approval of American National’s Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee. The executive officers and directors of American National and American National Bank will otherwise remain unchanged following the effective date of the Merger.
In the Merger Agreement, each of American National and MainStreet has made customary representations, warranties and covenants. The completion of the Merger is subject to various closing conditions, including obtaining the requisite approval of MainStreet’s shareholders and receiving certain regulatory approvals.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, MainStreet has agreed not to solicit proposals relating to alternative business combination transactions or, subject to certain exceptions, to enter into discussions or negotiations or provide confidential information in connection with any proposals for alternative business combination transactions. The Merger Agreement also provides that, upon termination of the Merger Agreement under specified circumstances, MainStreet may be required to pay to American National a termination fee of $1,000,000.
In connection with the Merger Agreement, each of MainStreet’s directors and executive officers entered into an agreement with American National and MainStreet pursuant to which such individuals, in their capacities as shareholders of MainStreet and except in certain circumstances, have agreed to vote their respective shares of MainStreet common stock in favor of the Merger Agreement and the Merger. As of August 24, 2014, such individuals had an aggregate voting power of approximately 14.2% of the outstanding shares of MainStreet common stock. The form of such agreement is attached as Exhibit 5.8 to the Merger Agreement.
