TechTarget, Inc. (“TechTarget”) held a special meeting of stockholders on November 26, 2024 (the “Special Meeting”). At the Special Meeting, TechTarget stockholders voted to adopt the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of January 10, 2024 (as it may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Transaction Agreement”), among Toro CombineCo, Inc. (“CombineCo”), TechTarget, Toro Acquisition Sub, LLC (“Merger Sub”), Informa PLC, Informa US Holdings Limited, and Informa Intrepid Holdings Inc., that provides for, among other things, the merger of Merger Sub with and into TechTarget (collectively, the “Transactions”). At the Special Meeting, TechTarget stockholders also approved the TechTarget, Inc. 2024 Incentive Plan (the “2024 Incentive Plan”) and the TechTarget, Inc. 2024 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “2024 ESPP”), both of which are plans of CombineCo. The board of directors of TechTarget previously approved the adoption of the 2024 Incentive Plan and the 2024 ESPP by CombineCo’s board of directors, subject to TechTarget stockholder approval and the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreement.
The 2024 Incentive Plan provides for the award of incentive stock options intended to qualify under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), nonstatutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, other stock-based awards and cash awards. Employees, directors, officers, advisors or consultants of CombineCo, its present or future parent or subsidiary corporations as defined in Sections 424(e) or (f) of the Code or any other business venture (including, without limitation, joint venture or limited liability company) in which CombineCo has a controlling interest, as determined by the board of directors of CombineCo (each such entity, a “Covered Entity”) are eligible to participate in the 2024 Incentive Plan, as are prospective employees, directors, officers, consultants or advisors of any Covered Entity who have agreed to serve a Covered Entity in those capacities. The number of shares of CombineCo common stock available for issuance under the 2024 Incentive Plan is provided in the formula set forth in Section 4 of the 2024 Incentive Plan.
A total of 1,400,000 shares of CombineCo common stock are available for grants under the 2024 ESPP, subject to adjustment under certain circumstances described in the 2024 ESPP. The 2024 ESPP permits full-time and part-time employees of a Covered Entity to purchase shares of CombineCo common stock at a discounted price.
A summary of the principal terms of each of the 2024 Incentive Plan and the 2024 ESPP is set forth in the section titled “Proposal No. 3 Approval of TechTarget, Inc. 2024 Incentive Plan” and “Proposal No. 4. Approval of the TechTarget, Inc. 2024 Employee Stock Purchase Plan” of the definitive proxy statement/prospectus filed by CombineCo pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) on October 25, 2024 relating to the registration statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-280529) initially filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on June 27, 2024, and declared effective by the SEC on October 25, 2024, on pages 247-262 and 263-268, respectively, each of which is incorporated herein by reference.
