CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF DELAWARE LAW AND OF THE COMPANY’S
AMENDED AND RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND BYLAWS
Anti-Takeover Provisions
Certain provisions of Delaware Law and of our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, which are summarized in the following paragraphs, may have an anti-takeover effect and may delay, defer or prevent a tender offer or takeover attempt that a stockholder might consider in its best interest, including those attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for the shares held by stockholders.
C:
Delaware Law
Delaware law regulates acquisitions of some Delaware corporations by prohibiting, with some exceptions, a publicly-held Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with an “interested stockholder” for a period of three years following the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless:
· | prior to the date a person becomes an interested stockholder, the board of directors of the corporation approved the business combination or the other transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder; |
· | upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the person becoming an interested stockholder, the person owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding shares owned by persons who are directors or officers of the corporation and issued under employee stock plans under which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or |
· | on or subsequent to the date the person became an interested stockholder, the board of directors of the corporation approved the business combination and the stockholders of the corporation, other than the interested stockholder, authorized the transaction at an annual or special meeting of stockholders by the affirmative vote of at least 662/3% of the outstanding stock of the corporation not owned by the interested stockholder. |
Under Delaware law, a “business combination” is defined to include any of the following:
· | any merger or consolidation involving the corporation or any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the corporation and the interested stockholder; |
· | any sale, transfer, pledge or other disposition of 10% or more of the corporation’s assets involving the interested stockholder; |
· | in general, any transaction that results in the issuance or transfer by the corporation of any of its stock of any class or series to the interested stockholder; |
· | any transaction involving the corporation that has the effect of increasing the proportionate share of its stock of any class or series owned by the interested stockholder; or |
· | the receipt by the interested stockholder of the benefit of any loans, advances, guarantees, pledges or other financial benefits provided by or through the corporation. |
Under Delaware law, an “interested stockholder” is defined as:
· | any person who owns 15% or more of a corporation’s outstanding voting stock; |
· | any person associated or affiliated with the corporation, who owns or within three years prior to the determination of interested stockholder status, did own, 15% or more of a corporation’s outstanding voting stock; or |
· | the affiliates and associates of any such person. |
These rules could depress our stock price and delay, discourage or prohibit transactions not approved in advance by our board of directors, such as takeover attempts that might result in a premium over the market price of our common stock.
Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws
Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws include a number of provisions that may have the effect of deterring hostile takeovers or delaying or preventing changes in control of us or our management, including, but not limited to the following:
· | our Bylaws allow the authorized number of directors to be changed only by resolution of our board of directors; |
· | our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the board of directors to issue without stockholder approval up to an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, the rights of which will be determined at the discretion of the board of directors that, if issued, could operate as a “poison pill” to dilute the stock ownership of a potential hostile acquirer to prevent an acquisition that is not approved by the board of directors; |
· | our Bylaws establish advance notice requirements for stockholder nominations to our board of directors or for stockholder proposals that can be acted on at stockholder meetings; and |
· | our Bylaws limit who may call stockholder meetings. |
These and other provisions contained in our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws could delay or discourage transactions involving an actual or potential change in control of us or our management, including transactions in which stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares over then current prices, and may limit the ability of stockholders to remove our current management or approve transactions that our stockholders may deem to be in their best interests and, therefore, could adversely affect the price of our Class A Common Stock.
