Item 8.01 Other Events.
On October 25, 2019, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of The Meet Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), approved an exemption request process (the “Exemption Request Process”) for persons to submit a request to the Board wherein such persons request an exemption (an “Exemption Request”) from the Company’s Section 382 Tax Benefits Preservation Plan, dated as of October 4, 2019 (the “Section 382 Tax Benefits Preservation Plan”), by and between the Company’s and Action Stock Transfer Corporation, as Rights Agent (as defined in the Section 382 Tax Benefits Preservation Plan). The Exemption Request Process also provides certain information on how the Board intends to consider Exemption Requests that are submitted to it.
The purpose of an Exemption Request is to facilitate a person’s acquisition of the Company’s Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), that would, if consummated, result in such person (together with its affiliates and associates) Beneficially Owning (as defined in the Section 382 Tax Benefits Preservation Plan) 4.99% or more of the then-outstanding Common Stock (or, in the case of an Existing Holder (as defined in the Section 382 Tax Benefits Preservation Plan), additional shares of Common Stock) and, thereby, in the absence of an exemption being approved by the Board, would result in such person being deemed an Acquiring Person (as defined in the Section 382 Tax Benefits Preservation Plan).
The foregoing description of the Exemption Request Process is intended to provide a general description only, does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Exemption Request Process, a copy of which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
