SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

 

This prospectus relates to the offering and sale, from time to time, by the Selling Stockholders of up to 1,161,905 Class A common shares which are issuable upon ( i) 285,715 remaining shares underlying Series A purchase warrants issued in our January 2017 private placement (“Series A Warrants”) which have a current exercise price of $2.245 per share (subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms therein), (ii) 76,190 shares underlying placement agent warrants issued in our January 2017 private placement (“Placement Agent Warrants”) which have an initial exercise price of $6.50 per share (subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms therein), (iii) 400,000 shares underlying warrants issued to consultants in November 2016 (“Consultant Warrants”) which have an initial exercise price of $7.50 per share (subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms therein), (iv) 50,000 shares underlying warrants issued to for investment banking services in August 2013 (“Banking Warrants”) which have an initial exercise price of $5.00 per share (subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms therein), and (v) 350,000 shares underlying warrants issued as consideration for the acquisition of software in August 2017 (“Software Warrants”) which have an initial exercise price of $3.00 per share (subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms therein). The Series A Warrants, Placement Agent Warrants, Consultant Warrants, Banking Warrants and Software Warrants are collectively referred to herein as the “Warrants.”

 

The Selling Stockholders may exercise their respective Warrants at any time in their sole discretion.


Set forth below is information, to the extent known to us, setting forth the name of each Selling Stockholder and the amount and percentage of Class A common stock owned by each (including Class A common shares that can be acquired on the exercise of outstanding warrants) prior to the offering, the Class A common shares to be sold in the offering, and the amount and percentage of common stock to be owned by each (including shares that can be acquired on the exercise of outstanding warrants) after the offering assuming all shares are sold. The footnotes provide information about persons who have voting and dispositive power for the Selling Stockholders and about transactions between the Selling Stockholders and the Company, if any.

 

The Selling Stockholders may sell all or some of the shares of Class A common stock they are offering, and may sell shares of our Class A common stock otherwise than pursuant to this prospectus. The table below assumes that each selling stockholder exercises all of its Warrants, and sells all of the Class A common shares issued upon exercise thereof, and that each Selling Stockholder sells all of the Class A common shares offered by it in offerings pursuant to this prospectus, and does not acquire any additional Class A common shares. We are unable to determine the exact number of Class A shares that will actually be sold or when or if these sales will occur.

 

Unless otherwise stated below in the footnotes, to our knowledge, no Selling Stockholder nor any affiliate of such stockholder: (i) has held any position or office with, been employed by or otherwise has had any material relationship with us or our affiliates during the three (3) years prior to the date of this prospectus; or (ii) is a broker-dealer, or an affiliate of a broker-dealer.

 

We may amend or supplement this prospectus from time to time in the future to update or change this list and Class A common shares which may be resold. Included below is a short description of the shares being registered.


Series A Warrants and Placement Agent Warrants


In January 2017, we conducted a private placement of Series A Warrants simultaneous to a registered offering. Pursuant to the private placement, we issued 380,953 Series A Warrants to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock, of which 285,715 are currently outstanding and being registered herein (the “Series A Warrants”). The Series A Warrants had an initial exercise price of $6.70 per share, which has been repriced to $2.245 per share pursuant to subsequent issuances that triggered certain anti-dilution protection in the Series A Warrants. The Series A Warrants are exercisable for five (5) years commencing six (6) months from the date of closing of January 5, 2017. The Series A warrants anti-dilution protection will be extinguished if at any time our Class A common stock trades at or above $10.00 per share for 20 consecutive trading days, subject to certain equity conditions. If at any time, the shares underlying the Series A Warrants are not subject to an effective registration statement, they may be exercised on a cashless basis. The Series A Warrants are also subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, dividends, recapitalizations and other events. The Series A Warrants are subject to assumption by a successor or acquiring entity in the event of certain extraordinary transactions including but not limited to a merger with another entity, sale of all or substantially all of our assets, tender offer or exchange offer, or reclassification of our Class A common stock. Also, at the election of the holder, in the event of an extraordinary transaction, we or any successor entity may be required to repurchase such warrant for an amount of cash equal to the value of the Series A Warrant as determined in accordance with the Black Scholes option pricing model and the terms of the Series A Warrants.’




5



We also issued 76,190 placement agent warrants (“Placement Agent Warrants”) as partial compensation to placement agents in the offering, all of which are being registered herein. The placement agent warrants have substantially the same terms as the Series A Warrants except that they contain no anti-dilution protection, have an exercise price of $6.50 per share, and contain adjustment to exercise price and share number only in the event of stock splits, dividends, and other distributions. And fundamental transactions.


Consultant Warrants


On November 16, 2016, we entered into an investor relations and consulting agreement (“Consulting Agreement”) whereby Market Street Investor Relations, LLC agreed to provide consulting services to the Company. Pursuant to the Consulting Agreement, we issued Market Street investor Relations, or its assigns, warrants to purchase an aggregate of 400,000 shares of Class A common stock with an exercise price of $7.50 per share and a term of three (3) years (“Consultant Warrants”), all of which are being registered herein. If at any time, the shares underlying the Consultant Warrants are not subject to an effective registration statement, they may be exercised on a cashless basis. The Consultant Warrants are further subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, dividends, or other distributions and fundamental transactions.  


Banking Warrants


On August 22, 2013, we issued warrants to purchase 50,000 shares of Class A common stock as compensation for investment banking services to T.R. Winston & Company, LLC, or its assigns (“Banking Warrants”), all of which are being registered herein. The Banking Warrants have an initial exercise price of $5.00 per share, subject to adjustment, and initially had a term of three (3) years, which was subsequently extended to five (5) years. If at any time, the shares underlying the Consultant Warrants are not subject to an effective registration statement, they may be exercised on a cashless basis.


The Banking Warrants are further subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, dividends, or other distributions and fundamental transactions.


The Banking Warrants also contained anti-dilution protection in the event that shares are issued at an effective price per share less than the exercise price within one (1) year beginning from October 30, 2013 except pursuant to certain exempt issuances.


Software Warrants


On August 17, 2017, the company acquired software from Leapfrog Media Trading and issued as partial consideration therefor, warrants to purchase 350,000 shares of Class A common stock (“Software Warrants”), all of which are being registered herein. The Software Warrants had an initial exercise price of $3.00 per share, a term of five (5) years from the date of issuance. The Software Warrants contain anti-dilution protection in the event that the Company sells or issues any Class A common stock or common stock equivalents at an effective price per share less than 120% of the exercise price then in effect. The Software Warrants are further subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, dividends, subsequent rights offerings, pro rata distributions, and fundamental transactions.


The table below lists the selling shareholders and other information regarding the beneficial ownership of the shares of Class A common stock by each of the Selling Stockholders. The total number of Class A common shares sold under this prospectus may be adjusted to reflect adjustments due to stock dividends, stock distributions, splits, combinations, recapitalizations or the triggering anti-dilution protective provisions with regard to the Class A common stock the Warrants, as applicable.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION


Each Selling Stockholder of the securities and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their securities covered hereby on the principal trading market or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the securities are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. A Selling Stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:


 

·

ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

 

 

 

 

·

block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

 

 

 

 

·

purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

 

 

 

 

·

an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

 

 

 

 

·

privately negotiated transactions;

 

 

 

 

·

settlement of short sales;

 

 

 

 

·

in transactions through broker-dealers that agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such securities at a stipulated price per security;

 

 

 

 

·

through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

 

 

 

 

·

a combination of any such methods of sale; or

 

 

 

 

·

any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.


The selling stockholders may also sell securities under Rule 144 or any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.


Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA IM-2440.


In connection with the sale of the securities or interests therein, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholders may also sell securities short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).


The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the securities may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the securities purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Each Selling Stockholder has informed us that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities.


We are required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by us incident to the registration of the securities. We have agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.




9



We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the securities may be resold by the Selling Stockholders without registration and without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the requirement for our company to be in compliance with the current public information under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the securities have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale securities will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale securities covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.


Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale securities may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the Class A common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the Selling Stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of the Class A common stock by the Selling Stockholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Stockholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES TO BE REGISTERED


General

 

The following is a summary of the rights of our common stock and preferred stock and related provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws. For more detailed information, please see our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, which are filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.

 

Our certificate of incorporation provides that we will have two classes of common stock: Class A common stock, which has one vote per share, and Class B common stock, which has ten votes per share. Any holder of Class B common stock may convert his or her shares at any time into shares of Class A common stock on a share-for-share basis. Otherwise the rights of the two classes of common stock will be identical. The rights of these classes of common stock are discussed in greater detail below.

 

Our authorized capital stock consists of 309,000,000 shares, each with a par value of $0.001 per share, of which:


·

250,000,000 shares are designated as Class A common stock;


·

9,000,000 shares are designated as Class B common stock; and


·

50,000,000 shares are designated as preferred stock.

 

As of March 31, 2018, we had 10,212,738 shares of Class A common stock outstanding and no shares of Class B common stock or preferred stock outstanding.

 

Common Stock

 

Voting Rights

 

Holders of our Class A and Class B common stock have identical rights, except that holders of our Class A common stock are entitled to one vote per share and holders of our Class B common stock are entitled to ten votes per share. Holders of shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock will vote together as a single class on all matters (including the election of directors) submitted to a vote of stockholders, unless otherwise required by law. Delaware law could require either our Class A common stock or Class B common stock to vote separately as a single class in the following circumstances:

 

 

·

If we amended our certificate of incorporation to increase the authorized shares of a class of stock, or to increase or decrease the par value of a class of stock, then that class would be required to vote separately to approve the proposed amendment.

 

 

 

 

·

If we amended our certificate of incorporation in a manner that altered or changed the powers, preferences or special rights of a class of stock in a manner that affects them adversely then that class would be required to vote separately to approve the proposed amendment.

 

We have not provided for cumulative voting for the election of directors in our certificate of incorporation.

 

Dividends

 

Subject to preferences that may apply to any shares of preferred stock outstanding at the time, the holders of Class A common stock and Class B common stock shall be entitled to share equally in any dividends that our board of directors may determine to issue from time to time. In the event a dividend is paid in the form of shares of common stock or rights to acquire shares of common stock, the holders of Class A common stock shall receive Class A common stock, or rights to acquire Class A common stock, as the case may be, and the holders of Class B common stock shall receive Class B common stock, or rights to acquire Class B common stock, as the case may be.

 

Liquidation Rights

 

Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, the holders of Class A common stock and Class B common stock shall be entitled to share equally all assets remaining after the payment of any liabilities and the liquidation preferences on any outstanding preferred stock.



11



Subdivision or Combinations.

 

Upon the subdivision or combination of the outstanding shares of one class of Common Stock, the outstanding shares of the other class of Common Stock will be subdivided or combined in the same manner.

 

Conversion

 

Our Class A common stock is not convertible into any other shares of our capital stock.

 

Each share of Class B common stock is convertible at any time at the option of the holder into one share of Class A common stock. In addition, each share of Class B common stock shall convert automatically into one share of Class A common stock upon any transfer, whether or not for value, except for certain transfers described in our certificate of incorporation, including the following:

 

 

·

Transfers between one Class B Stockholder to another Class B Stockholder.

 

 

 

 

·

Transfers for tax and estate planning purposes, including to trusts, corporations and partnerships controlled by a holder of Class B common stock.

 

The death of any holder of Class B common stock who is a natural person will result in the conversion of his or her shares of Class B common stock to Class A common stock. Once transferred and converted into Class A common stock, the Class B common stock shall not be reissued. No class of common stock may be subdivided or combined unless the other class of common stock concurrently is subdivided or combined in the same proportion and in the same manner.


Dual Class Structure

 

As discussed above, our Class B common stock has ten votes per share, while our Class A common stock, which is the class of stock the Selling Stockholders are selling pursuant to this prospectus and which is the only class of stock which is publicly traded, has one vote per share. We currently have no shares of our Class B common stock outstanding. Notwithstanding, in the event Class B common stock were issued, due to our dual class structure with superior voting rights, such ownership of Class B common stock could discourage others from initiating any potential merger, takeover or other change of control transaction that other stockholders may view as beneficial.

 

Preferred Stock

 

Our board of directors will have the authority, without approval by the stockholders, to issue up to a total of 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series. Our board of directors may establish the number of shares to be included in each such series and may fix the designations, preferences, powers and other rights of the shares of a series of preferred stock. Our board could authorize the issuance of preferred stock with voting or conversion rights that could dilute the voting power or rights of the holders of common stock. The issuance of preferred stock, while providing flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could, among other things, have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of Social Reality. We have no current plans to issue any shares of preferred stock.


Series A Warrants and Placement Agent Warrants


On January 5, 2017, we sold an aggregate of (i) 761,905 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock; and (ii) five (5) year Series B Warrants representing the right to acquire up an additional 380,953 shares of our Class A common stock at an exercise price of $7.00 per share. The shares of our Class A common stock and the Series B Warrants were sold in a registered direct offering and we received gross proceeds of $4 million.




12



Simultaneously, we conducted a private placement with the same purchasers, and for no additional consideration we issued 380,953 Series A Warrants (the “Series A Warrants”) to purchase shares of Class A common stock. The Series A Warrants had an initial an exercise price of $6.70 per share and are exercisable for five (5) years commencing six (6) months from the date of closing of January 5, 2017. The Series A warrants contain anti-dilution protection in the event that any shares are issued at an effective price per share less than the exercise price (as more fully described in the Series A Warrants), subject to a floor price of $1.20 per share. Such anti-dilution protection will be extinguished if at any time our Class A common stock trades at or above $10.00 per share for 20 consecutive trading days, subject to certain equity conditions. If at any time, the shares underlying the Series A Warrants are not subject to an effective registration statement, they may be exercised on a cashless basis. The Series A Warrants are subject to assumption by a successor or acquiring entity in the event of certain extraordinary transactions including but not limited to a merger with another entity, sale of all or substantially all of our assets, tender offer or exchange offer, or reclassification of our Class A common stock. Also, at the election of the holder, in the event of an extraordinary transaction, we or any successor entity may be required to repurchase such warrant for an amount of cash equal to the value of the Series A Warrant as determined in accordance with the Black Scholes option pricing model and the terms of the Series A Warrants. In April 2017, pursuant to the sale of certain 12.5% senior secured convertible debentures and Class A common stock purchase warrants, the exercise price of the Series A Warrants were reduced from $6.70 to $2.245 per share. 


We also issued 76,190 placement agent warrants pursuant to the January 2017 offering (“Placement Agent Warrants”). The Placement Agent Warrants have substantially the same terms as the Series A Warrants except that they contain no anti-dilution protection, have an exercise price of $6.50 per share, and contain adjustment to exercise price and share number only in the event of stock splits, dividends, and other distributions. Furthermore, in the event of certain extraordinary transactions, including a merger, sale or reclassification, an acquiring entity is required to issue a substantially similar warrant or provide the holder, upon exercise, the same type of stock, securities, money or property receivable upon such extraordinary transaction by a holder of the Class A common stock had the Placement Agent Warrants been exercised in full.


Consultant Warrants


On November 16, 2016, we entered into an investor relations and consulting agreement (“Consulting Agreement”) whereby Market Street Investor Relations, LLC agreed to provide consulting services to the Company. Pursuant to the Consulting Agreement, we issued Market Street investor Relations, or its assigns, warrants to purchase an aggregate of 400,000 shares of Class A common stock with an exercise price of $7.50 per share and a term of three (3) years (“Consultant Warrants”). The Consultant Warrants vested fully pursuant to certain terms contained in the Consulting Agreement. The Consultant Warrants vested pursuant to our Class A common stock meeting certain trading thresholds. If at any time, the shares underlying the Consultant Warrants are not subject to an effective registration statement, they may be exercised on a cashless basis. The Consultant Warrants are further subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, dividends, or other distributions and fundamental transactions. Furthermore, in the event of certain extraordinary transactions, including a merger, sale or reclassification, an acquiring entity is required to issue a substantially similar warrant or provide the holder, upon exercise, the same type of stock, securities, money or property receivable upon such extraordinary transaction by a holder of the Class A common stock had the Consultant Warrant been exercised in full.


Banking Warrants


On August 22, 2013, we issued warrants to purchase 50,000 shares of Class A common stock as compensation for investment banking services to T.R. Winston & Company, LLC, or its assigns (“Banking Warrants”). The Banking Warrants were fully vested on the grant date, have an initial exercise price of $5.00 per share, subject to adjustment, and initially had a term of three (3) years. The expiration date of the Banking Warrants, along with certain other warrants of the Company, were extended from three (3) years to five (5) years on September 19, 2016. If at any time, the shares underlying the Consultant Warrants are not subject to an effective registration statement, they may be exercised on a cashless basis.


Additionally, the Banking Warrants are callable at a per share call price of $.0002 upon 20 days prior written notice to a holder in the event that the last sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.50 per share for 20 consecutive trading days and the daily average volume is at least 20,000 shares and further provided that there is an effective registration statement registering the Class A common stock underlying the warrants.




13



The Banking Warrants are further subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, dividends, or other distributions and fundamental transactions. Furthermore, in the event of certain extraordinary transactions, including a merger, sale or reclassification, an acquiring entity is required to issue a substantially similar warrant or provide the holder, upon exercise, the same type of stock, securities, money or property receivable upon such extraordinary transaction by a holder of the Class A common stock had the Banking Warrant been exercised in full.


The Banking Warrants also contained anti-dilution protection in the event that shares are issued at an effective price per share less than the exercise price within one (1) year beginning from October 30, 2013 except pursuant to certain exempt issuances.


Software Warrants


On August 17, 2017, the company acquired software from Leapfrog Media Trading in exchange for 200,000 shares of Class A common stock and warrants to purchase 350,000 shares of Class A common stock (“Software Warrants”). The Software Warrants had an initial exercise price of $3.00 per share, a term of five (5) years from the date of issuance. The Software Warrants contain anti-dilution protection in the event that the Company sells or issues any Class A common stock or common stock equivalents at an effective price per share less than 120% of the exercise price then in effect. The Software Warrants are further subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, dividends, subsequent rights offerings, pro rata distributions, and fundamental transactions.

 

Anti-Takeover Effects of Delaware Law and Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws

 

Certain provisions of Delaware law, our certificate of incorporation and our bylaws contain provisions that could have the effect of delaying, deferring or discouraging another party from acquiring control of us. In particular, our dual class common stock structure will concentrate ownership of our voting stock in the hands of our founders, board members, and employees. These provisions, which are summarized below, are expected to discourage coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids. These provisions are also designed to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to first negotiate with our board of directors. We believe that the benefits of increased protection of our potential ability to negotiate with an unfriendly or unsolicited acquirer outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging a proposal to acquire us because negotiation of these proposals could result in an improvement of their terms.

 

Special Approval for Change in Control Transactions

 

In the event a person seeks to acquire us by means of a merger or consolidation transaction, a purchase of all or substantially all of our assets, or an issuance of stock which constitutes 2% or more of our outstanding shares at the time of issuance and which results in any person or group owning more than 50% of our outstanding voting power, then these types of acquisition transactions must be approved by our stockholders at an annual or special meeting. At this meeting, we must obtain the approval of stockholders representing the greater of:

 

 

·

A majority of the voting power of our outstanding capital stock; and

 

 

 

 

·

60% of the voting power of the shares of capital stock present in person or represented by proxy at the stockholder meeting and entitled to vote.

 

Undesignated Preferred Stock

 

The ability to authorize undesignated preferred stock makes it possible for our board of directors to issue preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to acquire us. These and other provisions may have the effect of deferring hostile takeovers or delaying changes in control or management of our company.

 

Requirements for Advance Notification of Stockholder Nominations and Proposals

 

Our bylaws establish advance notice procedures with respect to stockholder proposals and the nomination of candidates for election as directors, other than nominations made by or at the direction of the board of directors or a committee of the board of directors. The bylaws do not give the board of directors the power to approve or disapprove stockholder nominations of candidates or proposals regarding business to be conducted at a special or annual meeting of the stockholders. However, our bylaws may have the effect of precluding the conduct of certain business at a meeting if the proper procedures are not followed. These provisions may also discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the acquirer’s own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of our company.

 



14



Delaware Anti-Takeover Statute

 

We will be subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law regulating corporate takeovers. In general, Section 203 prohibits a publicly-held Delaware corporation from engaging under certain circumstances, in a business combination with an interested stockholder for a period of three (3) years following the date the person became an interested stockholder unless:

 

 

·

Prior to the date of the transaction, the board of directors of the corporation approved either the business combination or the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder.

 

 

 

 

·

Upon completion of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding for purposes of determining the number of shares outstanding (1) shares owned by persons who are directors and also officers and (2) shares owned by employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer.

 

 

 

 

·

On or subsequent to the date of the transaction, the business combination is approved by the board and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock which is not owned by the interested stockholder.

 

Generally, a business combination includes a merger, asset or stock sale, or other transaction resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. An interested stockholder is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns or, within three (3) years prior to the determination of interested stockholder status, did own 15% or more of a corporation’s outstanding voting securities. We expect the existence of this provision to have an anti-takeover effect with respect to transactions our board of directors does not approve in advance. We also anticipate that Section 203 may also discourage attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for the shares of common stock held by stockholders.

 

The provisions of Delaware law, our certificate of incorporation and our bylaws could have the effect of discouraging others from attempting hostile takeovers and, as a consequence, they may also inhibit temporary fluctuations in the market price of our common stock that often result from actual or rumored hostile takeover attempts. These provisions may also have the effect of preventing changes in our management. It is possible that these provisions could make it more difficult to accomplish transactions that stockholders may otherwise deem to be in their best interests.
