Item 15.                            Additional Information.

 

Item 15(b) is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

On December 16, 2010, at a special meeting of the Company’s stockholders, the Company’s stockholders voted to approve the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of September 17, 2010, by and among the Company, Parent and Micro Acquisition Corp., a Delaware Corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary at Parent (“Merger Sub”).

 

On December 17, 2010, the Company and Parent filed a Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, pursuant to which Merger Sub merged with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”).  As a result of the Merger, the Company became a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.

 

At the effective time of the Merger, each outstanding share of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Class A common stock”), and Class B common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Class B common stock” and, together with the Class A common stock, the “common stock”), was converted into the right to receive $13.35 in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes (the “Merger Consideration”), excluding (1) shares held by any of the Company’s stockholders who are entitled to and who have properly exercised and not withdrawn appraisal rights under Delaware law, (2) treasury shares, (3) shares held by any of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries and (4) shares held by Parent or any of its subsidiaries.  In addition, except as otherwise agreed to by Parent and the holder of an option, each outstanding option granted under the Company’s equity incentive plans that represented the right to acquire the Company’s Class A common stock, whether or not then vested or exercisable, was, at the effective time of the Merger, cancelled and terminated and converted into the right to receive a cash payment for each share of the Company’s Class A common stock subject to such option, equal to the excess, if any, of (a) the $13.35 per share merger consideration over (b) the exercise price payable in respect of such share of the Company’s Class A common stock issuable under such stock option, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes. Further, except as otherwise agreed to by Parent and the holder thereof, each outstanding share of restricted stock granted under the Company’s equity incentive plans was vested in full and converted into the right to receive $13.35 per share in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes. To the extent any such share of restricted stock did not, by the express terms of the relevant grant, automatically vest at the effective time of the Merger, then the Company has segregated the consideration attributable to such share, and the Company will release such consideration to the former holder of such share upon the satisfaction, if ever, of the vesting criteria applicable thereto following the effective time.

 

As a result of the Merger, the Company’s Class A common stock ceased to trade on The NASDAQ Global Select Market as of the close of trading on December 17, 2010, and The NASDAQ Global Select Market has filed an application on Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to report that the Company is no longer listed on The NASDAQ Global Select Market.  The Company expects to file a Certificate and Notice of Termination of Registration on Form 15 with the Securities and Exchange Commission in order to deregister its Class A common stock under Section 12 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and suspend the Company’s reporting obligations under Sections 13(a) and 15(d) of the Exchange Act.
