Item 15. Additional Information
Regulation M-A Item 1011
Item 15(c) is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
On June 5, 2012, at a special meeting of the Companys stockholders, the Merger Agreement was adopted and approved by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Companys common stock. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Merger Agreement was also adopted and approved by a majority of the outstanding shares of the Companys common stock excluding the rollover shares and the shares owned by Mr. Marquez, Parent, Merger Sub, their respective affiliates, and directors, officers and other employees of the Company and its subsidiaries.
On June 12, 2012, the Company entered into an Agreement Regarding Extension of Financing Date with Parent and Merger Sub, which extended the Financing Date, as that term is defined in the Merger Agreement, to July 20, 2012.
On July 19, 2012, the Company entered into an Agreement Regarding Further Extension of Financing Date with Parent and Merger Sub, which extended the Financing Date, as that term is defined in the Merger Agreement, to August 31, 2012, and changed the End Date, as that term is defined in the Merger Agreement, from October 16, 2012 to September 14, 2012.
On August 31, 2012, the Company entered into an Agreement Regarding Further Extension of Financing Date with Parent and Merger Sub, which extended the Financing Date, as that term is defined in the Merger Agreement, to September 13, 2012.
On September 13, 2012, the Company entered into an Agreement Regarding Further Extension of Financing Date with Parent and Merger Sub, which extended the Financing Date, as that term is defined in the Merger Agreement, to October 5, 2012, and changed the End Date, as that term is defined in the Merger Agreement, from September 14, 2012 to October 8, 2012.
On October 3, 2012, the Company filed a Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, pursuant to which the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company, with the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub ceasing and the Company continuing its corporate existence under Delaware law as the surviving corporation in the merger (the Merger), became effective. Upon the Merger, generally, (i) each share of the Companys common stock, par value $.01 per share (Common Stock) other than shares owned by the Company, Parent, Merger Sub, the Trust and the Foundation, and holders who properly demanded and did not withdraw a demand for appraisal rights, were converted into the right to receive $12.50 per share in cash, without interest and less any required withholding taxes, and (ii) the Company became a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.
As a result of the Merger, the Common Stock ceased to trade on the New York Stock Exchange (the NYSE) prior to the opening of trading on October 4, 2012 and became eligible for delisting from the NYSE and termination of registration pursuant to the Exchange Act. The Company intends to file a Certification and Notice of Termination on Form 15 with the SEC in order to deregister the Common Stock under the Exchange Act.
