Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On February 5, 2016, LeapFrog
Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger
Agreement”) with VTech Holdings Limited, an exempted company incorporated in Bermuda with limited liability
(“Parent”), and Bonita Merger Sub, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned
subsidiary of Parent (“Acquisition Sub”). The Board of Directors of the Company has unanimously approved
the Merger Agreement.
The Offer and the Merger
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement,
and upon the terms and subject to the conditions described therein, Acquisition Sub has agreed to commence a tender offer
(the “Offer”), as promptly as practicable but in any event event no later than March 3, 2016, to purchase
the outstanding shares of Class A common stock of the Company (the “Class A Shares”) and the outstanding
shares of Class B common stock of the Company (the “Class B Shares” and together with the Class A Shares,
the “Shares”), at a purchase price per Share of US $1.00 (the “Offer Price”), net to
the seller thereof in cash, without interest. The Board of Directors of the Company has unanimously recommended to the
Company’s stockholders that they tender their Shares pursuant to the Offer (the
“Recommendation”).
The consummation of the Offer is subject
to, among other things, (i) there having been tendered and not validly withdrawn Shares which (when added to any Company Shares
beneficially owned by Parent and Acquisition Sub) would represent at least (A) a majority of the aggregate voting power of the
number of (x) Class A Shares outstanding immediately after the consummation of the Offer (assuming for this purpose that Class
B Shares validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) will convert to Class A Shares at the time of the consummation of the
Offer), plus (y) Class A Shares that the Company would be required to issue pursuant to the conversion or exercise of all
Company options and securities convertible into Class A Shares, and (B) that number of outstanding Class B Shares as would allow
Parent to lawfully consummate the Merger in accordance with Section 251(h) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”),
(ii) expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of
1976, as amended, (iii) obtaining any other significant required government approvals, (iv) the Net Cash Balance (as
defined in the Merger Agreement) of the Company being at least $25 million as of March 31, 2016 or, if earlier, the business day
immediately prior to the first time at which the Acquisition Sub accepts for payment any Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer,
and (v) other closing conditions contained in the Merger Agreement.
Following the consummation of the Offer
and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain additional conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Acquisition Sub will
be merged with and into the Company, with the Company surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Merger”).
At the effective time of the Merger (“Effective Time”), each outstanding Share (other than Shares owned by the
Company as treasury stock, Shares owned by Parent, Acquisition Sub or any other wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, and Shares held
by stockholders that have properly exercised and perfected appraisal rights under Delaware law) will be converted automatically
into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the Offer Price, without interest. The Merger Agreement contemplates that
the Merger will be effected pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL. Accordingly, no vote of the stockholders of the Company
will be required to consummate the Merger.
The Merger Agreement provides that, immediately
prior to the Effective Time, (i) all options to purchase the Company’s common stock will be cancelled and all such options
which would, by their terms, be exercisable at the Effective Time and have an exercise price per Share less than the Offer Price
will be converted automatically into the right to receive for each Share issuable under such option an amount in cash equal to
the excess of the Offer Price over such exercise price, (ii) all of the Company’s restricted stock units that are outstanding
which would, by their terms, become vested as of the Effective Time, will be converted into the right to receive an amount equal
to the Offer Price allocable per Share, without interest, and (iii) the ending date of the current offering period under the Company’s
Employee Stock Purchase Plan shall occur prior to the Effective Time and all outstanding purchase rights shall be automatically
exercised prior to the Effective Time.
The Merger Agreement contains customary
representations and warranties of the Company, Parent and Acquisition Sub. The Merger Agreement also contains customary covenants
and agreements, including with respect to the operation of the business of the Company and its subsidiaries between signing and
closing, governmental filings and approvals, public disclosures and similar matters.
The Merger Agreement also prohibits the
Company from soliciting proposals for the acquisition of the Company, and from providing non-public information to and engaging
in discussions with third parties in response to an Acquisition Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement). However, under certain
circumstances the Company is permitted to provide information and participate in discussions with respect to unsolicited alternative
Acquisition Proposals.
Prior to the consummation of
the Offer, the Board has the right to change the Recommendation in response to an unsolicited Superior Proposal (as defined
in the Merger Agreement) if the Board determines in good faith (after consultation with outside counsel and its
financial advisor) that failure to do so would reasonably be expected to result in a breach of the directors’ fiduciary
duties. In the case of a Superior Proposal, the Board may also terminate the Merger Agreement to enter into a definitive
agreement with respect to the Superior Proposal. However, the Company may not change the Recommendation or terminate the
Merger Agreement under the above “fiduciary out” unless (i) the Company gives Parent five days’ notice
that the Company intends to take such action and provides relevant information and materials; (ii) the Company
provides Parent with at least five days to make a revised proposal, during which period the Company must negotiate in good
faith (to the extent Parent requests in writing to negotiate) regarding any revisions to the terms of the transactions
contemplated by the Merger Agreement proposed by Parent; and (iii) after such period, the Board determines in good
faith, after consultation with its legal and financial advisors, and taking into account any changes to the transaction
documents proposed by Parent, that the alternative acquisition proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal and that
the failure to make a change in recommendation or terminate the Merger Agreement, as applicable, would reasonably be expected
to result in a breach of the directors’ fiduciary duties.
The Merger Agreement contains certain
termination rights for both the Company and Parent. Upon termination of the Merger Agreement under specified circumstances, the
Company will be required to pay Parent a termination fee of US $2,900,000.
In
accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, the directors and certain executive officers of the Company have entered into
a tender and support agreement with Parent and Acquisition Sub (the "Support Agreement"). The Support Agreement obligates
the signatories to support the Offer and the Merger in various ways, including by tendering all of their respective Shares into
the Offer, to the extent necessary voting such Shares in favor of approving the Merger Agreement and the Merger, and voting such
Shares against any actions that could reasonably be expected to prevent or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated
by the Merger Agreement. The Support Agreement also restricts the transfer of the Shares held by the parties thereto and imposes
certain additional obligations on such parties, including prohibiting them from soliciting Acquisition Proposals from third parties.
The Support Agreement terminates automatically upon the effective time of the Merger or earlier upon any termination of the Merger
Agreement.
Additional Information
The foregoing summary of the Merger Agreement
and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by,
the full text of the Merger Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 2.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
The Merger Agreement has been attached
as an exhibit to provide investors and holders of Shares with information regarding its terms and is not intended to modify or
supplement any factual disclosures about the Company, Parent or Acquisition Sub in the Company’s public reports filed with
the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The representations, warranties and covenants contained
in the Merger Agreement were made only for the purposes of the Merger Agreement, were made as of specific dates, were made solely
for the benefit of the parties to the Merger Agreement and may not have been intended to be statements of fact but, rather, as
a method of allocating risk and governing the contractual rights and relationships among the parties to the Merger Agreement. In
addition, such representations, warranties and covenants may have been qualified by certain disclosures not reflected in the text
of the Merger Agreement and may apply standards of materiality and other qualifications and limitations in a way that is different
from what may be viewed as material by the Company’s stockholders. None of the Company’s stockholders or any other
third parties should rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of
the actual state of facts or conditions of the Company, Parent or Acquisition Sub or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates.
The Merger Agreement and this summary are not intended to modify or supplement any factual disclosures about the Company, and should
not be relied upon as disclosure about the Company without consideration of the periodic and current reports and statements that
the Company files with the SEC. Factual disclosures about the Company contained in public reports filed with the SEC may supplement,
update or modify the factual disclosures contained in the Merger Agreement.
The foregoing summary of the Support Agreement
does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Support Agreement, the
form of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
On February 5, 2016, the Company issued
a press release relating to the Merger Agreement. A copy of the press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on
Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
Important Information and Where To Find It
The tender offer for the outstanding common
stock of the Company referred to in this Current Report on Form 8-K has not yet commenced. This report is not an offer to purchase
or a solicitation of an offer to sell shares of the Company’s common stock. The solicitation and the offer to purchase shares
of the Company’s common stock will only be made pursuant to an offer to purchase and related materials that Parent intends
to file with the SEC. At the time the tender offer is commenced, Parent will file a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO with
the SEC, and at the same time or soon thereafter the Company will file a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9
with respect to the tender offer. STOCKHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY ARE ADVISED TO READ THE SCHEDULE TO (INCLUDING AN OFFER TO PURCHASE,
A RELATED LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL AND OTHER OFFER DOCUMENTS) AND THE SCHEDULE 14D-9, AS EACH MAY BE AMENDED OR SUPPLEMENTED
FROM TIME TO TIME, AND ANY OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS FILED WITH THE SEC WHEN THEY BECOME AVAILABLE, BEFORE MAKING ANY DECISION WITH
RESPECT TO THE TENDER OFFER BECAUSE THESE DOCUMENTS WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION AND THE PARTIES
THERETO.
Investors and stockholders may obtain free copies of the Schedule
TO and Schedule 14D-9, as each may be amended or supplemented from time to time, and other documents filed by the parties (when
available), at the SEC’s web site at www.sec.gov. In addition, the tender offer statement on Schedule TO and related offering
materials may be obtained for free (when they become available) from Parent.
Forward-Looking Statements or Information
Certain statements in this Current
Report on Form 8-K, and the exhibits attached hereto, constitute “Forward-Looking Statements” within the meaning
of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such statements
are typically punctuated by words or phrases such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “should,”
“may” and words or phrases of similar import. These forward-looking statements include statements regarding
expectations as to the completion of the Offer, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
The forward-looking statements contained herein involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those referred to in the forward-looking statements. Such risks include, but are not limited to, the ability
of the parties to the Merger Agreement to satisfy the conditions to closing specified in the Merger Agreement. More
information about the Company and other risks related to the Company are detailed in the Company’s most recent Annual
Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC. The Company does not undertake an obligation
to update forward-looking statements.

AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER
This
Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Agreement”) is made and entered into as of February 5, 2016, by and
among: VTech Holdings Limited, an exempted company incorporated in Bermuda with limited liability (“Parent”);
Bonita Merger Sub, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Acquisition
Sub”); and LeapFrog Enterprises, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). Certain capitalized
terms used in this Agreement are defined in Annex II.
Recitals
A. The
respective boards of directors of Parent, Acquisition Sub and the Company have determined that it is in the best interests of their
respective stockholders for Parent to acquire the Company upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.
B. In
furtherance of the contemplated acquisition of the Company by Parent, it is proposed that Acquisition Sub make a tender offer to
acquire all of the issued and outstanding Company Shares upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.
(Such tender offer, as it may be amended from time to time, is referred to in this Agreement as the “Offer.”)
C. Each
Company Share accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer will be exchanged for $1.00 (such dollar amount, or any greater
dollar amount per Company Share paid pursuant to the Offer, as such dollar amount may be adjusted pursuant to Section 1.1(e), being
referred to in this Agreement as the “Per Share Amount”), net to the seller in cash without interest.
D. It
is further proposed that, as soon as practicable following the consummation of the Offer, Acquisition Sub merge with and into the
Company upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement (the merger of Acquisition Sub into the Company
being referred to in this Agreement as the “Merger”).
E. The
respective boards of directors of Parent, Acquisition Sub and the Company have authorized and approved the execution and delivery
of this Agreement and the performance by such parties of their respective obligations under this Agreement, upon the terms and
subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.
F. The
board of directors of the Company (the “Company Board”) (a) has determined that the Offer is fair to, and in
the best interests of, the Company’s stockholders and (b) has resolved to recommend that the holders of Company Shares accept
the Offer and (to the extent necessary) adopt this Agreement upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.
G. Parent,
Acquisition Sub and the Company acknowledge and agree that the Merger shall be effected pursuant to Section 251(h) of the Delaware
General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) and shall be effected as soon as practicable following consummation of
the Offer.
H. Concurrently
with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and as a condition and inducement to Parent’s willingness to enter into
this Agreement, certain stockholders of the Company are entering into an agreement (the “Support Agreement”)
pursuant to which each such Person has agreed, among other things, to tender the Shares held by such Person in the Offer;
I. Parent,
Acquisition Sub and the Company desire to make certain representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in connection with
this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, and to prescribe certain conditions with respect to the consummation of
the Offer and the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
Agreement
NOW, THEREFORE,
in consideration of the foregoing premises and the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein, as well
as other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged and accepted, and intending
to be legally bound hereby, Parent, Acquisition Sub and the Company hereby agree as follows:
Section
1 The Offer
1.1 Tender
Offer.
(a) Unless
this Agreement shall have previously been validly terminated in accordance with Section 7, as promptly as practicable, but
in any event prior to 11:59 PM (Eastern Standard Time), March 3, 2016, Acquisition Sub shall commence (within the meaning of Rule
14d-2 under the Exchange Act) the Offer for all of the outstanding Company Shares (including any Company Shares subject to repurchase
rights in favor of the Company), at a price per Company Share equal to the Per Share Amount. (The date on which Acquisition Sub
commences the Offer, within the meaning of Rule 14d-2 under the Exchange Act, is referred to in this Agreement as the “Offer
Commencement Date.”)
(b) As
promptly as practicable on the later of (i) the earliest date as of which Acquisition Sub is permitted under applicable Law to
accept for payment Company Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer (and not validly withdrawn), and (ii) the earliest date as of
which each of the conditions set forth in Annex I (the “Offer Conditions”) shall have been satisfied
or waived, Acquisition Sub shall (and Parent shall cause Acquisition Sub to) accept for payment all Company Shares tendered pursuant
to the Offer (and not validly withdrawn). The obligation of Acquisition Sub to accept for payment Company Shares tendered pursuant
to the Offer shall be subject only to the satisfaction or waiver of each of the Offer Conditions (and shall not be subject to any
other conditions). As promptly as practicable after the acceptance for payment of any Company Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer,
Acquisition Sub shall pay for such Company Shares.
(c) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, neither Parent nor Acquisition Sub shall (without the prior written consent
of the Company):
(i) change
or waive the Minimum Condition;
(ii) decrease
the number of Company Shares sought to be purchased by Acquisition Sub in the Offer;
(iii) reduce
the Per Share Amount to be paid pursuant to the Offer;
(iv) extend
or otherwise change the expiration date of the Offer (except as otherwise provided pursuant to Section 1.1(d);
(v) change
the form of consideration payable in the Offer;
(vi) impose
any condition to the Offer in addition to the Offer Conditions, or amend, modify or supplement any of the Offer Conditions in any
manner adversely affecting, or that would reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on, any of the holders of Company Shares;
or
(vii) amend,
modify or supplement any of the terms of the Offer in a manner adverse in any respect to the holders of Company Shares.
(d) Unless

extent appropriate.
1.2 Actions
of Parent and Acquisition Sub.
(a) As
promptly as reasonably practicable on the Offer Commencement Date, Parent and Acquisition Sub shall: (i) cause to be filed with
the SEC a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO with respect to the Offer, which will contain or incorporate by reference Acquisition
Sub’s offer to purchase and related letter of transmittal (the forms of which shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company)

any Company Shares that Acquisition Sub becomes obligated to purchase pursuant to the Offer, and shall cause Acquisition Sub to
perform, on a timely basis, all of Acquisition Sub’s obligations under this Agreement.
1.3 Actions
of the Company.
(a) As
promptly as reasonably practicable on the Offer Commencement Date, the Company shall file with the SEC and disseminate to holders

the “Schedule 14D-9”) that shall contain the recommendation of the Company Board that stockholders of the Company

Company under Section 262(d)(2) of the DGCL in connection with a merger effected pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL at the
time the Company first files the Schedule 14D-9 with the SEC. Parent and its counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity
to review and comment on the Schedule 14D-9 (including any amendment or supplement thereto) prior to the filing thereof with the
SEC or the dissemination thereof to holders of Company Shares; provided, however, that the Company need not give Parent
and its counsel such opportunity to review and comment in connection with any amendment or supplement to the Schedule 14D-9 to
the extent that such amendment or supplement relates to any Change in Recommendation or Alternative Acquisition Agreement). The
Company shall promptly provide Parent and its counsel with a copy or a description of any comments received by the Company (or
its counsel) from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Schedule 14D-9. The Company shall respond promptly to any comments of
the SEC or its staff with respect to the Schedule 14D-9 and give Parent and its counsel a reasonable opportunity to review and
comment on any response to such comments provided to the SEC or its staff; provided, however, that the Company need not
give Parent and its counsel such opportunity to review and comment in connection with any such response or comments to the extent
that such response or comments relate to any Change in Recommendation or Alternative Acquisition Agreement.
(b) To
the extent required by the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, (i) each of Parent,
Acquisition Sub and the Company shall promptly correct any information provided by it for use in the Schedule 14D-9 if such information

requested by the Company in connection with any action contemplated by this Section 1.3(b). The Company hereby consents
to the inclusion in the Offer Documents of the Company Board Recommendation contained in the Schedule 14D-9. To the extent requested
by the Company, Parent shall cause the Schedule 14D-9 and any supplement or amendment thereto to be mailed or otherwise disseminated

will furnish Acquisition Sub with such additional information (including lists of record holders or beneficial owners of Company
Shares and their security position listings, updated from time to time upon Parent’s, Acquisition Sub’s or either of
their respective representatives’ request) and assistance as Acquisition Sub may reasonably request for purposes of communicating
the Offer to the holders of Company Shares. All information furnished in accordance with this Section 1.3(c) shall be held in confidence
by Parent and Acquisition Sub in accordance with the requirements of the letter agreement, dated December 1, 2015, between Parent
and the Company (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), and shall be used by Parent and Acquisition Sub only in connection
with the communication of the Offer to the holders of Company Shares.
1.4 Board
of Directors.
(a) Following
the first time at which Acquisition Sub accepts for payment any Company Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer (the “Acceptance
Time”), Parent shall be entitled to designate the total number of directors, rounded up to the next whole number, that
is equal to the product of (i) the total number of directors on the Company Board multiplied by (ii) the percentage that
the number of Company Shares purchased by Acquisition Sub pursuant to the Offer bears to the total number of Company Shares outstanding
at the Acceptance Time and the Company shall cause Parent’s designees to be elected or appointed to the Company Board, including
by securing the resignation of directors or increasing the size of the Company Board (or both) to the extent necessary to permit
Parent’s designees to be elected or appointed to the Company Board in accordance with this Section 1.4(a); provided, however,
that prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board shall always have at least two Continuing Directors. At such time, the Company
shall also cause individuals designated by Parent to constitute the number of members, rounded up to the next whole number, on
(A) each committee of the Company Board and (B) as requested by Parent, each board of directors of each Subsidiary of the Company
(and each committee thereof) that represents the same percentage as such individuals represent on the Company Board.
(b) The
Company’s obligation to cause Parent’s designees to be elected or appointed to the Company Board shall be subject to
Section 14(f) of the Exchange Act and Rule 14f-1 promulgated thereunder. The Company shall promptly take all actions, and shall
include in the Schedule 14D-9, such information with respect to the Company and its officers and directors as Section 14(f) of
the Exchange Act and Rule 14f-1 thereunder require in order to fulfill its obligations under this Section 1.4 necessary to effect
the appointment of Parent’s designees (together with the Schedule 14D-9), so long as Parent shall have provided to the Company
all information with respect to Parent and Parent’s designees, officers, directors and Affiliates required by Section 14(f)
of the Exchange Act and Rule 14f-1 thereunder. Parent shall promptly supply to the Company in writing, and shall be solely responsible
for, all such information with respect to Parent and its designees, officers, directors and Affiliates.
1.5 Actions
by Directors. Following the election or appointment of Parent’s designees to the Company Board pursuant to Section 1.4(a),
and until the Effective Time, the approval of a majority of the Continuing Directors shall be required to authorize (a) any amendment
to or termination of this Agreement by the Company, (b) any amendment to the Company’s Organizational Documents, (c) any
extension of time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of Parent or Acquisition Sub, (d) any waiver of compliance
with any covenant of Parent or Acquisition Sub or any condition to any obligation of the Company or any waiver of any right of
the Company under this Agreement and (e) any other action taken by the Company Board with respect to this Agreement or the Merger.
The authorization of any such matter by a majority of the Continuing Directors shall constitute the authorization of such matter
by the board of directors of the Company, and no other action on the part of the Company or any other director of the Company shall
be required to authorize such matter. The Continuing Directors shall have the authority to retain the same law firm and financial
advisor that were serving in such capacities as of the date of this Agreement, at the expense of the Company.

such Company Shares in exchange for payment therefor. Parent shall ensure that, upon proper surrender to the Paying Agent of each
such Company Stock Certificate, together with a properly executed letter of transmittal, the holder of such Company Stock Certificate
(or, under the circumstances described in Section 2.7(e), the transferee of the Company Shares previously represented by such Company
Stock Certificate) shall promptly receive in exchange therefor the amount of cash to which such holder (or transferee) is entitled
pursuant to Section 2.5(a)(iii).
(c) On
or after the six month anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to cause the Paying Agent

any Company Stock Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, then, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by
the Person claiming such Company Stock Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, and if required by Parent, the posting of a

the Paying Agent to evidence and effect such transfer and to evidence that any applicable stock transfer Taxes relating to such
transfer have been paid.
(f) The
Surviving Corporation shall bear and pay all charges and expenses, including those of the Paying Agent, incurred in connection
with the payment for Company Shares.
2.8 Appraisal
Rights.
(a) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Company Shares that constitute Appraisal Shares shall not be converted
into or represent the right to receive payment in accordance with Section 2.5, and each holder of Appraisal Shares shall be entitled
only to such rights with respect to such Appraisal Shares as may be granted to, and to the extent provided by, Section 251(h) and
Section 262 of the DGCL. From and after the Effective Time, a holder of Appraisal Shares shall not have and shall not be entitled
to exercise any of the voting rights or other rights of a stockholder of the Surviving Corporation. If any holder of Appraisal
Shares shall fail to perfect or shall otherwise lose such holder’s right of appraisal under Section 262 of the DGCL, then
(i) any right of such holder to require the Surviving Corporation to purchase such Appraisal Shares for cash shall be extinguished,
and (ii) such Appraisal Shares shall automatically be converted into and shall represent only the right to receive (upon the surrender
of the Company Stock Certificate(s) previously representing such Appraisal Shares) payment for such Appraisal Shares in accordance
with Section 2.5.

Company (i) shall promptly give Parent written notice of any demand by any Company Stockholder for appraisal of such stockholder’s
Company Shares pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL or any withdrawal of any such demand, and (ii) shall give Parent the opportunity
and right to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demand. The Company shall not make any payment
with respect to any demands for appraisal or settle any such demands for appraisal without the prior written consent of Parent.
(c) For
purposes of this Agreement, “Appraisal Shares” shall refer to any Company Shares outstanding immediately prior
to the Effective Time that are held by stockholders who are entitled to demand and have properly demanded their appraisal rights
under, and who comply in all respects with, Section 262 of the DGCL with respect to such Company Shares.
2.9 Withholding
Rights. Parent, the Company, Acquisition Sub, the Surviving Corporation and the Paying Agent shall each be entitled to deduct
and withhold, or cause to be deducted and withheld, from the consideration otherwise payable to any holder of Company Shares or
otherwise pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as Parent, the Company, Acquisition Sub, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying
Agent determines it is required to deduct and withhold under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the
extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been
paid to the Person in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made.
2.10 Further
Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement,
the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation and Parent shall (in the name of Acquisition Sub, in the name of the Company
or otherwise) take such action.

policies applied in the preparation of its financial statements, except as required by GAAP, SEC rules or policy or applicable

unauthorized use, acquisition or disposition of the Company’s assets that would materially affect the Company’s financial
statements would be detected or prevented in a timely manner and (iv) regarding the reliability of the Company’s financial
statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. Such disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information
relating to the Company, including its consolidated Subsidiaries, required to be disclosed in the Company’s periodic and
current reports under the Exchange Act, is made known to the Company’s chief executive officer and its chief financial officer
by others within those entities to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures as required under the Exchange Act. The
chief executive officer and chief financial officer of the Company have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure
controls and procedures and, to the extent required by applicable Law, presented in any applicable Company SEC Document that is
a report on Form 10 K or Form 10 Q, or any amendment thereto, its conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls
and procedures as of the end of the period covered by such report or amendment based on such evaluation. The Company has not identified
(i) any material weakness or significant deficiency in the design or operation of internal controls which is reasonably likely

or allegation of fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the
Company’s internal controls.

or auditing practices, procedures, methodologies or methods of the Company or its internal accounting controls, including any such
material complaint, allegation, assertion or claim that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has engaged in questionable accounting
or auditing practices and no attorney representing the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, whether or not employed by the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries, has reported evidence of a material violation of securities Laws, breach of fiduciary duty or similar

(or modify or qualify in any manner adverse to Parent or Acquisition Sub) the Company Board Recommendation, (B) recommend
or otherwise declare advisable the approval by the Company stockholders of any Acquisition Proposal, or (C) formally resolve,

principle, acquisition agreement, merger agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other Contract,
except for an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement (each, an “Alternative Acquisition Agreement”), in each case
constituting or related to, or which is intended to or is reasonably likely to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal, or resolve, agree
or propose to take any such actions.
provided, however, that, notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, at any time prior to the Acceptance Time, (A) the Company and its representatives
may furnish information with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries to the Person making such Acquisition Proposal pursuant
to sub-clause (6) below and participate in discussions or negotiations with the Person making such Acquisition Proposal regarding
such Acquisition Proposal if (1) the Company receives a written Acquisition Proposal that the Company Board believes in good
faith to be bona fide, (2) such Acquisition Proposal did not otherwise result from a breach of this Section 5.2, (3)
the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with outside counsel and its financial advisor) that such Acquisition
Proposal constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal, (4) the Company Board determines in good faith
(after consultation with outside counsel) that failure to take the actions referred in clause (A) above would reasonably be expected
to result in a breach by the Company Board of its fiduciary duties to the holders of Company Shares under applicable Law, (5) prior
to engaging in any negotiations with a third party concerning, or providing any material non-public information regarding the Company
to any third party in response to, an Acquisition Proposal, the Company gives Parent written notice of the identity of such third
party and of the Company’s intention to engage in negotiations with, or furnish material non-public information to, such
third party (except to the extent the Company is prohibited from giving Parent such notice of the identity of such third party
by any confidentiality agreement entered into prior to the date of this Agreement), (6) prior to providing any material non-public
information regarding the Company to any third party in response to an Acquisition Proposal, the Company receives from such third
party an executed confidentiality agreement that contains terms substantially similar to, and no less favorable to the Company
(including any standstill obligations), with respect to the confidentiality of the Company’s non-public information than
the Confidentiality Agreement and (subject to the proviso in clause (5) above) the Company has provided Parent with a non-redacted
copy of any such confidentiality agreement the Company has executed in accordance with this Section 5.2 (each an “Acceptable
Confidentiality Agreement”), and (5) prior to or concurrent with providing any such material non-public information to
such third party, the Company makes such material non-public information available to Parent (to the extent such material non-public
information has not been previously made available by the Company to Parent), and (B) at any time prior to the Acceptance Time,
if the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with outside counsel) that failure to do so would reasonably
be expected to result in a breach by the Company Board of its fiduciary duties to the holders of Company Shares under applicable
Law, taking into account all adjustments to the terms of this Agreement that may be proposed in writing by Parent pursuant to this
Section 5.2(b), the Company Board may (x) make a Change in Recommendation in response to a Superior Proposal not solicited in violation
of Section 5.2, and (y) accept or recommend a Superior Proposal that did not result from a breach of this Section 5.2 and cause
the Company to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.1(e) and concurrently enter into an Alternative Acquisition
Agreement in response and with respect to such Superior Proposal; provided, however, that the Company may not make a Change
in Recommendation in response to a Superior Proposal or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(e) unless:
| (A) | the Company notifies Parent in writing at least five (5)
days before taking that action of its intention to do so, and specifies the reasons therefor, including the terms and conditions
of, and the identity of the Person making, such Superior Proposal, and contemporaneously furnishes a copy (if any) of the proposed
Alternative Acquisition Agreement and any other relevant transaction documents (it being understood and agreed that any amendment
to the financial terms, or any other material term of such Superior Proposal shall require a new written notice by the Company
and a new five (5)-day period); and |
| (B) | if Parent makes a binding, written proposal during such
five (5) day period to adjust the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company Board, after taking into consideration the
adjusted terms and conditions of this Agreement as proposed by Parent, determines in good faith (after consultation with outside
counsel and its financial advisor) that such Superior Proposal continues to be a Superior Proposal and that the failure to make
a Change in Recommendation or terminate this Agreement, as applicable, would reasonably be expected to result in a breach of its
fiduciary duties to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law; |
During the five (5) day period prior to
its effecting a Change in Recommendation or terminating this Agreement as referred to above, the Company shall, and shall cause
its financial and legal advisors to, negotiate with Parent in good faith (to the extent Parent requests in writing to negotiate)
regarding any revisions to the terms of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement proposed by Parent. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained herein, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall enter into any Alternative Acquisition
Agreement unless this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with its terms (including the payment of the Termination Fee
pursuant to Section 7.3, if applicable).
(c) Nothing
contained in this Section 5.2 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company or the Company Board from disclosing a
position contemplated by Rule 14d-9, Rule 14e-2 or Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A under the Exchange Act with respect to an Acquisition
Proposal, if the Company determines, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that failure to disclose such position would
constitute a violation of applicable Law; provided, however, that any such disclosure (other than a “stop, look and
listen” communication or similar communication of the type contemplated by Section 14d–9(f) under the Exchange
Act) shall be deemed to be a Change in Recommendation) unless the Company Board expressly reaffirms its recommendation to the Company’s
stockholders in favor of the approval of this Agreement and the Merger in such disclosure and expressly rejects any applicable
Acquisition Proposal.
(d) In
addition to the obligations of the Company set forth in Section 5.2(a) and Section 5.2(b), the Company promptly (and in any event
within one Business Day of receipt) shall advise Parent in writing in the event the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or representatives
receives (i) any inquiry or request for information, discussion or negotiation that is reasonably likely to lead to or that contemplates
an Acquisition Proposal, or (ii) any proposal or offer that is or that is reasonably likely to lead to an Acquisition Proposal,
in each case together with a description of the material terms and conditions of and facts surrounding any such indication, inquiry,
request, proposal or offer, the identity of the Person making any such indication, inquiry, request, proposal or offer, and a copy
of any written proposal, offer or draft agreement provided by such Person. The Company shall keep Parent informed (orally and in
writing) in all material respects of the status and details (including within one Business Day after the occurrence of any material
amendment proposed by the third party making such Acquisition Proposal to the terms of such Acquisition Proposal) of any such Acquisition
Proposal, inquiry, request, proposal or offer, including furnishing copies of any written inquiries, written correspondence and
draft documentation relating to such Acquisition Proposal. Without limiting any of the foregoing, the Company shall promptly (and
in any event within one Business Day) notify Parent in writing if it determines to begin providing information or to engage in
discussions or negotiations concerning an Acquisition Proposal pursuant to Section 5.2(b). The Company shall provide Parent with
at least twenty four (24) hours prior notice (or such shorter notice as may be provided to the Company Board) of a meeting of the
Company Board at which the Company Board is reasonably expected to consider an Acquisition Proposal.
(e) The
Company agrees that any violation of the restrictions set forth in this Section 5.2 by any representative of the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries, whether or not such Person is purporting to act on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise,
shall be deemed to be a material breach of this Agreement by the Company.
(f) The
Company shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, enter into any confidentiality agreement with any Person subsequent
to the date of this Agreement that would restrict the Company’s ability to comply with any of the terms of this Section 5.2,
and represents that neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to any such agreement.

connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that neither the Company nor any of
its Subsidiaries shall commit to the payment of any fee, penalty or other consideration or make any other concession, waiver or
amendment under any Contract in connection with obtaining any consent without the prior written consent of Parent.
(b) Without
limiting the generality of anything contained elsewhere in this Section 5.3, each party hereto shall (i) give the other parties
prompt notice of the making or commencement of any request, inquiry, investigation, action or Legal Proceeding by or before any
Governmental Body with respect to the Offer, the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) keep
the other parties promptly informed as to the status of any such request, inquiry, investigation, action or Legal Proceeding, and
(iii) promptly inform the other parties of any communication to or from the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, the U.S. Department
of Justice or any other Governmental Body regarding the Offer or the Merger. Each party hereto will reasonably consult and cooperate
with the other parties and will consider in good faith the views of the other parties in connection with any analysis, appearance,
presentation, memorandum, brief, argument, opinion or proposal made or submitted in connection with any such request, inquiry,
investigation, action or Legal Proceeding. In addition, except as may be prohibited by any Governmental Body or by any Law, in
connection with any such request, inquiry, investigation, action or Legal Proceeding, each party hereto will permit authorized
representatives of the other parties to be present at each meeting or conference relating to such request, inquiry, investigation,
action or Legal Proceeding and to have access to and be consulted in connection with any document, opinion or proposal made or
submitted to any Governmental Body in connection with such request, inquiry, investigation, action or Legal Proceeding.
(c) Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall Parent, Acquisition Sub or any of its Affiliates be required
to (i) to defend, contest or resist any action or proceeding, whether judicial or administrative, or to take any action to have
vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any judgment, order or decree, in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, (ii) agree or proffer to sell, license, assign, transfer, divest, hold separate (in a trust or otherwise) or otherwise
dispose, or take any other action with respect to, any of the assets or businesses of Parent or any of its Affiliates or, assuming
the consummation of the Merger, the Surviving Corporation or any of its Affiliates, (iii) agree or proffer to limit in any manner
whatsoever or not to exercise any rights of ownership of any securities (including the Company Shares) or (iv) enter into any agreement
that in any way limits the ownership or operation of any business of Parent, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or any of their
respective Affiliates.
(d) Without
limiting the generality of anything contained elsewhere in this Section 5.3, each of the Company, Parent and Acquisition Sub shall
use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Offer Conditions to be satisfied on a timely basis (to the extent the satisfaction
of such conditions is within the Company’s, Parent’s or Acquisition Sub’s direct or indirect control), and Parent
shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause Acquisition Sub to purchase Company Shares pursuant to the Offer on the
earliest possible date.
5.4 Access;
Files and Records; Financial Reporting.
(a) Upon
reasonable notice, the Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, afford Parent and Acquisition Sub and their
respective authorized representatives reasonable access, during normal business hours throughout the period prior to the Effective
Time, to all of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ respective properties, assets, contracts, commitments, personnel
and books and records and, during such period, the Company shall furnish promptly to Parent all available information concerning
its business, properties and personnel as Parent may reasonably request (including a copy of each report, schedule, registration
statement and other document filed or received by it during such period pursuant to the requirements of federal or state securities
Laws and any Tax returns filed and those in preparation and the workpapers of its auditors); provided, however, that the
Company shall not be required to permit any inspection or other access, or to disclose any information, that would (a)
violate any obligation of the Company under any Contract with respect to confidentiality or privacy, (b) jeopardize protections
afforded the Company under the attorney-client privilege or the attorney work product doctrine, or (c) violate
any Law. In the event that the Company does not provide access or information in reliance on the preceding sentence, it shall use
its reasonable best efforts to communicate the applicable information to Parent in a way that would not violate the applicable
Law, Contract or obligation or to waive such a privilege and seek to obtain any applicable waiver or consent to disclose such document
or information. All information obtained by Parent and its representatives pursuant to this Section 5.4 shall be treated as “Confidential
Information” for purposes of the Confidentiality Agreement. No investigation pursuant to this Section 5.4 or information
provided, Made Available or delivered to Parent pursuant to this Agreement shall affect any of the representations, warranties,
covenants, rights or remedies, or the conditions to the obligations of, the parties hereunder.
(b) At
the Effective Time, the Company shall provide such access, or have delivered, to Parent or its representatives (as Parent shall
reasonably request in a written notice to the Company delivered at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing) the human
resources and employee files and records of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

Time on the fifth Business Day after the end of the relevant week) and (ii) the information set forth in Schedule 5.4(c)(ii) of
the Disclosure Schedule (the “Monthly Report”) on a monthly basis (to be delivered no later than 8:00 PM Eastern
Standard Time on the eighth Business Day of the subsequent month) throughout the period prior to the Effective Time. The Weekly

be accompanied by supporting documentation reasonable acceptable to Parent establishing the basis upon which the line items in
the Weekly Report and the Monthly Report were calculated by the Company.
(d) The
Company shall prepare and deliver to Parent two (2) Business Days prior to the Acceptance Time, (i) a reasonably detailed summary
of the facts and circumstances, together with all material supporting written documentation, relating to any Retailer Deficiency

to be delivered by the Company pursuant to Annex I hereof and (ii) supporting documentation establishing the basis upon which each
of the other line items (cash, cash equivalents, the total liabilities under the Loan Facility and Unpaid Transaction Expenses)
in the calculation of Net Cash Balance set forth in the Net Cash Balance Certificate were calculated (the “Net Cash Balance
Supporting Statement”). The Net Cash Balance Supporting Statement shall be accompanied by a certificate of the Company’s
Chief Financial Officer, dated as of the date of the Net Cash Balance Supporting Statement, to the effect that such Net Cash Balance
Supporting Statement reflects accurately, as of the date of the certificate, the information set forth therein (including the facts
and circumstances relating to any Retailer Deficiency) and otherwise meets the requirements of this Section 5.4(d).
(e) Without
limitation of any other of Parent’s rights set forth in this Section 5.4, upon delivery to Parent of the Weekly Report, the
Monthly Report or the Net Cash Balance Supporting Statement, the Company shall provide Parent with full access (with the right

Litigation. The Company shall give Parent the opportunity to participate in the defense and settlement of any stockholder litigation
against the Company and/or its officers or directors relating to any of the Offer, the Merger or any of the other transactions
contemplated by this Agreement. The Company shall not enter into any settlement agreement in respect of any stockholder litigation
against the Company and/or its directors or officers relating to the Offer, the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated
hereby without Parent’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).
5.6 Publicity.
The initial press release relating to this Agreement shall be a joint press release issued by the Company and Parent, and thereafter
the Company and Parent shall consult with each other prior to issuing any press releases or otherwise making public statements
with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and prior to making any filings with any Governmental Body with
respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that the Company need not consult with Parent
in connection with any press release, public statement or filing to be issued or made solely with respect to any Change in Recommendation.
5.7 Stock
Options; Restricted Stock; RSU’s; ESPP.
(a) Promptly
following the date of this Agreement, and in any event prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board shall adopt appropriate resolutions
and take all other actions as may be required to provide that each outstanding Company Option which would, by its terms, be exercisable
at the Effective Time, will by virtue of the Merger, and without any action on the part of the holder thereof (“Vested
Company Option”), be terminated and cancelled as of the Effective Time and be converted into the right to receive cash
in an amount equal to the amount by which (i) the Per Share Amount, exceeds (ii) the exercise price per Class A Company Share of
such Vested Company Option, and that all other outstanding Company Options will be cancelled. If the exercise price per Class A
Company Share of such Vested Company Option equals or exceeds the Per Share Amount, then no consideration will be payable therefor
in connection with the Merger.
(b) The
Company shall take all action necessary to ensure that each outstanding Company Share outstanding immediately prior to the Effective
Time that constitutes unvested restricted stock of the Company which would not otherwise become vested as of the Effective Time
to be repurchased in accordance with the terms of the Company Equity Plans, with the result that no such Company Share shall remain
subject to repurchase rights in favor of the Company following the Effective Time.
(c) At
the Effective Time, each Company RSU that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time which would by its terms become
vested as of the Effective Time, shall be converted into and become a right to receive the Per Share Amount. Solely with respect
to the Company RSUs held by the Designated Executives, upon a termination of employment of such holder thereof following the occurrence
of the Effective Time, then upon the satisfaction of all of the conditions otherwise necessary for such vesting acceleration in
accordance with the existing rights of such holder, Parent shall cause the Company to settle the rights that would otherwise have
been represented by such vesting acceleration with respect to such Company RSU with a payment of the Per Share Amount.
(d) The
Company shall take the necessary actions with respect to the Company ESPP so that (i) the ending date of the current offering period
shall occur prior to the Effective Time (the “Final Purchase Date”) and all outstanding purchase rights (if
any) shall be automatically exercised on the Final Purchase Date by applying the payroll deductions of each then current participant
to the purchase of whole Company Shares in accordance with the terms of the Company ESPP, (ii) as of the Final Purchase Date, the
Company ESPP shall be suspended, and no offering periods or purchase periods shall be thereafter commenced and no payroll deductions
or other contributions shall be thereafter made or effected with respect to the Company ESPP, (iii) notice shall be given to participants
in the Company ESPP prior to the Final Purchase Date describing the treatment of the Company ESPP pursuant to this Section 5.7(d),
and (iv) conditional upon the occurrence of the Effective Time, the Company ESPP shall terminate effective upon the Effective Time.
5.8 Other
Employee Benefits.
(a) Parent
may contact the employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of immediately prior to the Acceptance Time in connection with
preparing, making or determining whether to make offers of new employment with Parent or the Surviving Corporation (or a Subsidiary
of the Surviving Corporation) following the Acceptance Time, on terms and conditions that the Parent determines in its sole discretion.
Each individual who accepts an offer of employment with Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Surviving Corporation
after the Acceptance Time shall be referred to as a “Continuing Employee”. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein or otherwise, subject to any contractual or legal rights that a Continuing Employee may have, following the Acceptance Time,
the Parent may, in its sole discretion, amend, modify or terminate any employee benefit program, including, without limitation,
any plan, program or arrangement providing for severance, termination or change in control benefits, in which a Continuing Employee
may be participating in, or eligible for a benefit under, as of, or at any time following, the Acceptance Time.
(b) Parent
shall ensure that, as of the Acceptance Time, each Continuing Employee receives full credit (for all purposes, including eligibility
to participate, vesting, benefit accrual and vacation entitlement, but excluding any defined benefit arrangements and severance
benefits) for service with the Company or its Subsidiaries (or predecessor employers to the extent the Company provides such past
service credit) under the comparable employee benefit plans, programs and policies of Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable,
in which such employees became participants, except where doing so would cause a duplication of benefits. As of the Acceptance
Time, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, credit to Continuing Employees the amount of vacation time that
such employees had accrued under any applicable Company Plan as of the Acceptance Time. With respect to each health or welfare
benefit plan maintained by Parent or the Surviving Corporation for the benefit of Continuing Employees, Parent shall (i) cause
to be waived any eligibility waiting periods, any evidence of insurability requirements and the application of any pre-existing
condition limitations under such plan, and (ii) subject to the terms of the applicable plans shall take commercially reasonable
efforts to cause each Continuing Employee to be given credit under such plan for all amounts paid by such Continuing Employee under
any similar Company Plan for the plan year that includes the Acceptance Time for purposes of applying deductibles, co-payments
and out-of-pocket maximums as though such amounts had been paid in accordance with the terms and conditions of the plans maintained
by Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, for the plan year in which the Acceptance Time occurs.
(c) Parent
shall cause the Surviving Corporation to assume and honor in accordance with their terms all deferred compensation plans, agreements
and arrangements, severance and separation pay plans, agreements and arrangements, and all written employment, severance, retention,
incentive, change in control and termination agreements (including any change in control provisions therein) applicable to employees
of the Company.
(d) The
Company shall have performed the Operational Covenant.
5.9 Indemnification;
Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance.
(a) From
and after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall perform in all respects the obligations of the
Company and each Company Subsidiary for acts or omissions of the current and former directors and officers of the Company and its
Subsidiaries (the “Indemnified Parties”) occurring prior to the Effective Time pursuant to (i) each indemnification
agreement in effect as of the date of this Agreement between the Company and any Indemnified Party, and (ii) any indemnification,
exculpation from liability or advancement of expenses provision set forth in the Organizational Documents of the Company as in
effect on the date of this Agreement and all such rights shall continue in full force and effect during the period commencing at
the Effective Time and ending on the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Effective Time, except as otherwise required by
applicable Law.
(b) Through
the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Effective Time: (i) the Surviving Corporation shall ensure that the Organizational
Documents of the Surviving Corporation contain the provisions with respect to indemnification, exculpation from liability and advancement
of expenses set forth in the Company’s Organizational Documents on the date of this Agreement and, from and after the Effective
Time through such anniversary, such provisions shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified in any manner that would adversely
affect the rights thereunder of any Indemnified Party and (ii) the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall maintain in
effect the exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses provisions set forth in the Organizational Documents of such
Subsidiaries as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, and shall not permit the amendment, repeal or other modification
of any such provisions in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any Indemnified Party.
(c) From
the Effective Time through the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time the Surviving Corporation shall maintain in effect for the
benefit of the Indemnified Parties, the current level and scope of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage
as set forth in the Company’s current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies in effect as of the
date of this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) the Surviving Corporation may substitute thereof policies of an insurance
policy the material terms of which, including coverage and amount, are no less favorable in any material respect to such Indemnified
Parties than the Company’s current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies in effect as of the
date of this Agreement; (ii) in no event shall the Surviving Corporation be required pursuant to this Section 5.9(c) to expend
in any one year an amount in excess of 250% of the annual premium payable by the Company as of the date of this Agreement with
respect to such current policy, it being understood that if the annual premiums payable for such insurance coverage exceed such
amount, the Surviving Corporation shall be obligated to obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available for an annual premium
equal to such amount, and (ii) in lieu of the foregoing, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in clause “(i)”
above, the Company may obtain a prepaid “tail” policy (the “Tail Policy”) prior to the Effective
Time, which policy provides the Indemnified Parties with directors’ and officers’ liability insurance for a period
ending no earlier than the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time. The Surviving Corporation shall cause any such Tail Policy
to be maintained in full force and effect, for its full term, and all obligations thereunder shall be assumed and performed by
the Surviving Corporation. In the event that any of the carriers issuing or reinsuring the Tail Policy shall become insolvent or
otherwise financially distressed such that any of them is reasonably likely to be unable to satisfy its financial obligations under
the Tail Policy at any time during the term of thereof, the Surviving Corporation agrees that it shall, from time to time, cause
the Tail Policy to be replaced with another prepaid “tail” policy on terms and conditions providing substantially equivalent
benefits and coverage levels as the Tail Policy, with a term extending for the remainder of such term (the “New Tail Policy”).
In such event, references in this Agreement to the Tail Policy shall be deemed to include any New Tail Policy, as applicable.
(d) The
rights of each Indemnified Party under this Section 5.9 shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights such
Indemnified Party may have under the Organizational Documents of the Company or the Surviving Corporation, under any other indemnification
arrangement, under the DGCL or otherwise. This Section 5.9 shall survive the Effective Time and shall also survive consummation
of the Merger and the Effective Time. This Section 5.9 is intended to benefit, and may be enforced by, the Indemnified Parties
and their respective heirs, representatives, successors and assigns, and shall be binding on all successors and assigns of the
Surviving Corporation. In the event of (i) any merger, consolidation or other similar transaction involving the Surviving Corporation
or (ii) any sale by the Surviving Corporation of all or substantially all of its assets, then, and in each such case, the Surviving
Corporation shall ensure that the applicable successor, assign, or transferee shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section
5.9.
(e) For
purposes of this Agreement, each individual who is or was an officer or director of the Company or the Company Subsidiary at or
at any time prior to the Effective Time shall be deemed to be an “Indemnified Party.”

that such item or other matter is required to be referred to or disclosed in the Company Disclosure Schedule. The information
set forth in the Company Disclosure Schedule is disclosed solely for the purposes of this Agreement, and no information set forth
therein shall be deemed to be an admission by any party hereto to any third party of any matter whatsoever, including of any violation

Company Disclosure Schedule is intended to constitute, or shall be construed as constituting,
a representation or warranty of the Company or any other Person.

below).
WHEREAS,
each Stockholder is, as of the date hereof, the record and Beneficial Owner (as defined in Section 6.11 below) of issued and outstanding

Merger, dated as of the date hereof (the “Merger Agreement”), with LeapFrog Enterprises, Inc., a Delaware corporation

NOW,
THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:
SECTION
1 Agreement to Tender
1.1 Tender
of Company Shares. Each Stockholder agrees: (i) to promptly (and, in any event, not later than ten (10) Business Days
after commencement of the Offer) validly tender or cause to be validly tendered into the Offer, pursuant to and in accordance with
the terms and procedures of the Offer, the Offer Documents and Rule 14d-2 under the Exchange Act, all of the Company Shares Beneficially
Owned by such Stockholder as of the commencement of the Support Period (free and clear of any Encumbrances, except for any applicable
restrictions on transfer under the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder that would not in any event
prevent such Stockholder from tendering their Company Shares in accordance with this Agreement or otherwise complying with such
Stockholder’s obligations under this Agreement); and (ii) if such Stockholder acquires Beneficial Ownership of any additional
Company Shares during the Support Period, to promptly (and, in any event, not later than three (3) Business Days after the acquisition
of Beneficial Ownership of such additional Company Shares) validly tender or cause to be validly tendered into the Offer, pursuant
to and in accordance with the terms of the Offer, all of such additional Company Shares (free and clear of any Encumbrances, except
for any applicable restrictions on transfer under the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder that
would not in any event prevent such Stockholder from tendering their Company Shares in accordance with this Agreement or otherwise
complying with such Stockholder’s obligations under this Agreement).
1.2 No
Withdrawal. Each Stockholder agrees not to withdraw, and not to cause or permit to be withdrawn, any Company Shares
from the Offer unless and until the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 6.3 hereof.
1.3 Conditional

Company Shares tendered into the Offer, including any Company Shares tendered by such Stockholder, is subject to the terms and
conditions of the Merger Agreement, the Offer and the Offer Documents.
SECTION
2 Voting Agreement; Grant of Proxy
2.1 Voting
Agreement. Each Stockholder hereby agrees that, during the Support Period, such Stockholder shall, at every meeting
of the stockholders of the Company called for such purpose, and at every adjournment or postponement thereof (or in any other circumstances
upon which a vote, consent or approval is sought, including by written consent), vote such Company Shares Beneficially Owned by
such Stockholder (to the extent that any such Company Shares Beneficially Owned by such Stockholder are not otherwise purchased
in the Offer) (a) in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement and the approval of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated
by the Merger Agreement, and (b) against the approval of any (i) Acquisition Proposal, (ii) reorganization, recapitalization, dissolution,
liquidation or winding-up of the Company or any other extraordinary transaction involving the Company, in each case other than
the Offer, the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, (iii) change in Persons who constitute
the Company Board, other than in connection with any appointment by Parent of directors to the Company Board pursuant to Section
1.4 of the Merger Agreement or (iv) corporate action (including any amendment of the Company’s certificate of incorporation
or bylaws) the consummation of which would or could reasonably be expected to frustrate, prevent, or delay the consummation, of
any of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Each Stockholder shall ensure that, during the Support Period, any
other Person having voting power with respect to any Company Shares Beneficially Owned by such Stockholder will vote any such shares
in favor of the matters described in clause (a) of the preceding sentence, and will vote against the approval of the matters described
in clauses (b)(i) through (iv) of the preceding sentence.
2.2 Irrevocable
Proxy. Each Stockholder hereby revokes (or agrees to cause to be revoked) any and all previous proxies granted with
respect to the Company Shares Beneficially Owned by such Stockholder with respect to any of the matters contemplated by Section
2.1 above. Each Stockholder agrees not to grant any proxy (whether revocable or irrevocable) to any Person that conflicts
with the proxy granted by such Stockholder pursuant to this Section 2.2, and any attempt to do so shall be void and of no force
and effect. By entering into this Agreement, each Stockholder hereby grants a proxy in the form attached hereto as Exhibit
A appointing Parent as such Stockholder’s sole and exclusive attorney-in-fact and proxy, with full power of substitution,
for and in such Stockholder’s name, to vote or act by written consent, express consent or dissent, or otherwise to utilize
such voting power in the manner contemplated by Section 2.1 above as Parent or its proxy or substitute shall, in Parent’s
sole discretion, deem proper with respect to the Company Shares Beneficially Owned by such Stockholder. The proxy granted
by each Stockholder pursuant to this Article 2 is irrevocable and is granted in consideration of Parent and Acquisition Sub entering
into this Agreement and the Merger Agreement and incurring certain related fees and expenses and is given to secure the performance
of the duties of each Stockholder under this Agreement. Each Stockholder shall take such further action or execute such
other instruments as may be reasonably necessary to effectuate the intent of this proxy. The proxy granted by each Stockholder
shall not be exercised to vote, consent or act on any matter except as contemplated by Section 2.1 above. The proxy
granted by each Stockholder shall be revoked, terminated and of no further force or effect, automatically and without further action,
upon termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 6.3 hereof. The power of attorney granted herein is a durable power
of attorney and shall survive the dissolution, bankruptcy, death or incapacity of such Stockholder.

SECTION
5 Covenants of StockholderS
5.1 No
Proxies for, Encumbrances on or Disposition of Company Shares.
(a) During
the Support Period, except pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or in connection with the Offer and the Merger, each Stockholder
shall not, without the prior written consent of Parent, directly or indirectly, (a) grant any proxies, or enter into any voting
trust or other contract, with respect to the voting of any Company Shares Beneficially Owned by such Stockholder with respect to
any matter contemplated by Section 2.1 above, (b) sell, assign, transfer, tender, encumber or otherwise dispose of, or enter into
any contract with respect to the direct or indirect sale, assignment, transfer, tender, encumbrance or other disposition of, any
such Company Shares or (c) take any other action that would make any representation or warranty of such Stockholder contained herein
untrue or incorrect in any material respect or in any way restrict, limit or interfere in any material respect with the performance
of such Stockholder’s obligations hereunder, or seek to do or solicit any of the foregoing actions, or cause or permit any
other Person to take any of the foregoing actions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, during the Support
Period, each Stockholder shall not tender, agree to tender or cause or permit to be tendered any Company Shares Beneficially Owned
by such Stockholder into or otherwise in connection with any tender or exchange offer, except pursuant to the Offer.
(b) Notwithstanding
the foregoing clause (i), each Stockholder may transfer Company Shares held by such Stockholder to any of the other Stockholders
party to this Agreement with Parent and Acquisition Sub or to any member of such Stockholder’s immediate family (or to any
trust established for the benefit of one or more members of such Stockholder’s immediate family); provided that
a transfer referred to in this sentence shall be permitted only if, as a precondition to such transfer, the transferee agrees in
a writing, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Parent, to be bound by all of the terms of this Agreement.
5.2 No
Solicitation. Neither such Stockholder (in the Stockholder’s capacity as such), nor any of such Stockholder’s
Subsidiaries or other Affiliates, if any, shall, nor shall such Stockholder or any of such Stockholder’s Subsidiaries or
other Affiliates, if any, authorize or permit any of their or their respective directors, officers, employees, advisors, agents
or other representatives (together, “Representatives”) to, and each Stockholder shall instruct, and cause each
applicable Subsidiary and Affiliate of such Stockholder to instruct, each such Representative not to, directly or indirectly, take
any action that the Company and its Representatives are prohibited from taking pursuant to Section 5.2(a)(i)-(iii) of the Merger
Agreement (provided, however, that for the avoidance of doubt, none of the remaining sections of Section 5.2 of the Merger
Agreement applicable to the Company and its Representatives shall be deemed applicable to such Stockholder for purposes of this
Section 5.2). Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prohibit such Stockholder or any of such Stockholder’s
Representatives who is an officer or member of the Company Board from taking any action in his or her capacity as an officer or
member of the Company Board, in each case only as permitted by the Merger Agreement, or, subject to the provisions in the Merger
Agreement, from taking any action with respect to any Acquisition Proposal in such Person’s capacity as an officer or member
of the Company Board.
5.3 Termination
of Negotiations. Each Stockholder shall, and shall cause their Subsidiaries or other Affiliates, if any,
and any of their respective Representatives to immediately cease any and all existing discussions or negotiations with any Person
conducted heretofore with respect to any Acquisition Proposal. Unless and until the Company Board formally determines in accordance
with Section 5.2(b) of the Merger Agreement that an Acquisition Proposal is a Superior Proposal, and to cause the Company to terminate
the Merger Agreement in accordance with Section 7.1(e) thereof and concurrently enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement
in response and with respect to such Superior Proposal, each Stockholder shall also refrain from engaging in any future discussions
or negotiations with any Person (other than Parent and its Affiliates, and their respective Representatives) with respect to the
sale of any Company Shares held by such Stockholder (other than to state that he, she or it is currently not permitted to engage
in such discussions or negotiations). Following the Company Board making the foregoing determinations, each Stockholder shall be
permitted to engage in such discussions or negotiations with the Person making such Acquisition Proposal (and its Affiliates and
their respective Representatives).
5.4 Publicity. Each
Stockholder, and each of such Stockholder’s Subsidiaries or other Affiliates, if any, shall not, and shall cause their respective
Representatives, if any, not to, directly or indirectly, make any press release, public announcement or other public communication
with respect to this Agreement or the Merger Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, without the
prior written consent of Parent. Each Stockholder hereby (i) consents to and authorizes the publication and disclosure
by Parent, Acquisition Sub and the Company (including in the Offer Documents, Schedule 14D-9 or any other publicly filed documents
relating to the Merger, the Offer or any other transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement) of: (a) such Stockholder’s
identity; (b) such Stockholder’s Beneficial Ownership of Company Shares; and (c) the nature of such Stockholder’s commitments,
arrangements and understandings under this Agreement and (ii) agrees as promptly as practicable to notify Parent, Acquisition Sub
and the Company of any required corrections with respect to any written information supplied by such Stockholder specifically for
use in any such Offer Documents, Schedule 14D-9 or other disclosure document. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing
herein shall limit or affect any actions taken by such Stockholder (or any of such Stockholder’s Representatives) who is
an officer or member of the Company Board, solely in their capacity as such, in each case only as permitted by the Merger Agreement.
5.5 Additional
Shares; Changes to Shares; Stop-Transfer Order.
(a) In
the event that such Stockholder acquires Beneficial Ownership of, or the power to dispose of or vote or direct the disposition
or voting of, any additional Company Shares or other interests in or with respect to the Company, such Company Shares or other
interests shall, without further action of the parties, be subject to the provisions of this Agreement. Each Stockholder
shall promptly notify Parent and Acquisition Sub of any such event.
(b) In
case of a stock dividend or distribution, or any change in Company Shares by reason of any stock dividend or distribution, split-up,
recapitalization, combination, exchange of shares or the like, the term “Company Shares” shall be deemed to
refer to and include the Company Shares as well as all such stock dividends and distributions and any securities into which or
for which any or all of the Company Shares may be changed or exchanged or which are received in such transaction.
(c) In
furtherance of this Agreement, concurrently herewith, each Stockholder shall, and hereby does authorize the Company or its counsel
to, notify the Company’s transfer agent that there is a stop transfer order with respect to all of the Company Shares Beneficially
Owned by such Stockholder (and that this Agreement places limits on the voting and transfer of such Company Shares). The parties
hereto agree that such stop transfer order shall be removed and shall be of no further force and effect upon termination of this
Agreement in accordance with Section 6.3 hereof.
5.6 Waiver
of Appraisal and Dissenters’ Rights and Actions. Each Stockholder hereby (i) waives and agrees not
to exercise any rights (including under Section 262 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware) to demand appraisal
of any Company Shares Beneficially Owned by such Stockholder or rights to dissent (or other such similar rights) from the Merger
which may arise with respect to the Merger and (ii) agrees not to commence or participate in, and to take all actions necessary
to opt out of any class in any class action with respect to, any claim, derivative shareholder action or other Legal Proceeding,
against Parent, Acquisition Sub, the Company or any of their respective successors relating to the negotiation, execution or delivery
of this Agreement or the Merger Agreement or the making or consummation of the Offer or consummation of the Merger, including any
Legal Proceeding (x) challenging the validity of, or seeking to enjoin or delay the operation or consummation of, any provision
of this Agreement or the Merger Agreement (including any claim seeking to enjoin or delay the consummation of the Offer or the
Closing) or (y) alleging a breach of any fiduciary duty of the Company Board in connection with the Merger Agreement or the transactions
contemplated thereby. Each Stockholder agrees to provide prompt written notice to Parent upon obtaining knowledge of the commencement,
or the threat of commencement, of any such claims set forth in the foregoing clause (ii).
SECTION
6 Miscellaneous
6.1 Other
Definitional and Interpretative Provisions. Unless specified otherwise, in this Agreement the obligations
of any party hereto consisting of more than one Person are several and not joint. For purposes of this Agreement, whenever
the context requires: (i) the singular number shall include the plural, and vice versa; and (ii) the masculine gender shall include
the feminine and neuter genders; the feminine gender shall include the masculine and neuter genders; and the neuter gender shall
include masculine and feminine genders. As used in this Agreement, the words “include” and “including,”
and variations thereof, shall not be deemed to be terms of limitation, but rather shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without
limitation.” Except as otherwise indicated, all references in this Agreement to “Sections,” “Exhibits,”
“Annexes” and “Schedules” are intended to refer to Sections of this Agreement and Exhibits, Annexes and
Schedules to this Agreement. The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of like
import used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. All
references in this Agreement to “$” are intended to refer to U.S. dollars. The parties hereto agree that any rule of
construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be applied in the construction
or interpretation of this Agreement. References to any Person include the successors and permitted assigns of that Person.
6.2 Further
Assurances. Parent, Acquisition Sub and each Stockholder (in their respective capacity as such) will each
execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all further documents and instruments as the other may reasonably request
to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Without limitation of the preceding
obligations, each Stockholder shall, to the extent requested by Parent, promptly: (i) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause
each other Person having voting power with respect to any Company Shares Beneficially Owned by such Stockholder to execute and
deliver to Parent a proxy with respect to such shares, which shall be identical to the proxy in Section 2.2 above; and (ii) upon
request, surrender or cause to be surrendered the certificates, if any, representing the Company Shares Beneficially Owned by such
Stockholder so that the transfer agent for such shares may affix thereto an appropriate legend referring to this Agreement.
6.3 Amendments;
Termination. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or
waiver is in writing and is signed, in the case of an amendment, by each party to this Agreement or in the case of a waiver, by
the party against whom the waiver is to be effective. This Agreement shall terminate automatically with respect to each
Stockholder upon the earliest of (i) the Effective Time, (ii) the valid termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with
its terms or (iii) the mutual written consent of Parent and such Stockholder; provided, however, that no termination
of this Agreement shall relieve any party hereto from any liability for any breach of any provision of this Agreement prior to
such termination and Article 6 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
6.4 Expenses. Whether
or not any of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or this Agreement are consummated, each party hereto shall
pay its own expenses incident to preparing for, entering into and carrying out this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby.
6.5 Successors
and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall be enforceable by and inure to the benefit of, the
parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Except in accordance with the terms hereof, this Agreement shall not
be assignable by any party without the express written consent of the other parties hereto; provided, however that that
Parent or Acquisition Sub may assign in their sole discretion and without the consent of any other party, any or all of their rights,
interests and obligations under this Agreement to any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, but no such assignment
shall relieve Parent or Acquisition Sub of their obligations hereunder.
6.6 Third
Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon
any Person, other than the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, any right, benefit or remedy of
any nature.
6.7 Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile or other form of electronic transmission) in one
or more counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed
to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
6.8 Entire
Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings,
both written and oral, among or between any of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.
6.9 Severability. If
any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental
Body to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement
shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal
substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party hereto. Upon
such a determination, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent
of the parties hereto as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated
as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.
6.10 Specific
Performance. Each of the parties hereto agrees that irreparable damage would occur to Parent or Acquisition
Sub in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were
otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that, in addition to any other remedy that Parent or Acquisition Sub may have under
Law or in equity, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by each Stockholder of any covenant or obligation of such Stockholder
contained in this Agreement, Parent and Acquisition Sub shall be entitled to obtain (a) a decree or order of specific performance
to enforce the observance and performance of such covenant; and (b) an injunction restraining such breach or threatened breach.
Each Stockholder hereby waives any defenses based on the adequacy of any other remedy, whether at law or in equity, that might
be asserted as a bar to the remedy of specific performance of any of the terms or provisions hereof or injunctive relief in any
action brought therefor by Parent or Acquisition Sub.
6.11 Defined
Terms. For the purposes of this Agreement:
(a) Capitalized
terms used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Merger Agreement.
(b) Each
Stockholder shall be deemed to “Beneficially Own” or to have acquired “Beneficial Ownership”
of a security if such Stockholder (a) is the record owner of such security; or (b) is the “beneficial owner” with respect
to the investment authority of such security (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act).
(c)
“Support Period” shall mean the period from the date of this Agreement through the date upon which this Agreement
terminates in accordance with Section 6.3 hereof.
6.12 Action
in the Stockholders’ Capacity Only. Each Stockholder, if a director or officer of the Company, does
not make any agreement or understanding herein as a director or officer of the Company. Each Stockholder signs this
Agreement solely in his, her or its capacity as a Beneficial Owner of the Company Shares, and nothing herein shall limit or affect
any actions taken in a Stockholder’s capacity as an officer or director of the Company, including complying with or exercising
such Stockholder’s fiduciary duties as a member of the Company Board.
6.13 Notices. Any
notice or other communication required or permitted to be delivered to any party under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall
be deemed properly given and made as follows: (a) if sent by registered or certified mail in the United States, return receipt
requested, then such communication shall be deemed duly given and made upon receipt; (b) if sent by nationally recognized overnight
air courier (such as DHL or Federal Express), then such communication shall be deemed duly given and made two Business Days after

Exhibit 99.1
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
VTech to Acquire US based
LeapFrog Enterprises
Hong Kong and Emeryville, California, 5 February
2016 – VTech Holdings Limited (VTech, HKSE: 303), a global leader in electronic learning products and cordless
telephones, and LeapFrog Enterprises, Inc. (LeapFrog, NYSE: LF), a leading developer of educational entertainment for children,
today announced that the two companies have entered into a merger agreement whereby VTech will acquire LeapFrog.
VTech plans to acquire 100% of the outstanding common
stock of LeapFrog through an all cash tender offer followed by a second-step merger. In the tender offer, VTech will offer LeapFrog
investors US$1.00 per share for LeapFrog’s Class A and Class B shares, which represents a 75.4% premium over the closing
price of LeapFrog’s Class A shares on 4 February 2016. The total purchase consideration amounts to approximately US$72 million.
VTech will fund the tender offer through internal resources.
The tender offer is expected to commence on or about
3 March 2016, and will be open for a minimum of 20 business days. The closing of the transaction is subject to satisfaction of
certain conditions set forth in the merger agreement, which has been unanimously approved by the Boards of Directors of both companies.
LeapFrog’s Board has agreed to unanimously recommend to its stockholders that they tender their shares of LeapFrog common
stock pursuant to the tender offer.
“We are delighted to have the LeapFrog brand
joining VTech, bringing together two of the great names in children’s learning and entertainment,” said Allan Wong,
Chairman and Group CEO of VTech Holdings Limited. “VTech has been a pioneer in the electronic learning toy category for 35
years. The acquisition will allow us to offer the broadest portfolio of products that enhances the education and development of
children across the world, while bringing them fun and joy.”
“We believe this is a terrific opportunity
for our employees, customers, and shareholders,” said Bill Chiasson, the Chairman of LeapFrog’s Board of Directors.
“The acquisition and future investment by VTech will be instrumental to helping the LeapFrog brand achieve the mission of
helping each child achieve their potential. Importantly, too, this transaction also rewards our shareholders with a significant
premium from recent trading levels.”
