The foregoing description 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 filed as Exhibit 2 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.
As an inducement and condition for Parent and Merger Sub to enter into the Merger Agreement, each of the Reporting Persons (except for Chai Trust) (each a “Voting Agreement Stockholder”) have entered into a Voting and Support Agreement, dated as of October 30, 2019, with Parent (the “Voting Agreement”). Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, the Voting Agreement Stockholders have agreed, among other things, to vote or cause to be voted any issued and outstanding shares of the Common Stock beneficially owned by each such Voting Agreement Stockholder, or that may otherwise become beneficially owned by such Voting Agreement Stockholder during the term of the Voting Agreement, in favor of adopting the Merger Agreement and against any action, agreement or proposal that could reasonably be expected to delay, postpone or adversely affect consummation of the Merger and other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. The Voting Agreement covers a total of 3,640,337 shares of Common Stock owned by the Voting Agreement Stockholders that are parties to the Voting Agreement, representing approximately 10.8% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. However, the Voting Agreement Stockholders are permitted to donate up to 600,000 of these shares of Common Stock to charitable organizations, free of restrictions under the Voting Agreement. If these donations are made, approximately 9.0% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock will remain subject to the Voting Agreement.
The Voting Agreement will automatically terminate upon the earliest to occur of (i) the effective time of the Merger, (ii) the termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms, and (iii) for each Voting Agreement Stockholder, the election of the Voting Agreement Stockholder to terminate the Voting Agreement following any amendment of the Merger Agreement that reduces or changes the form of consideration payable pursuant to the Merger Agreement.
