Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

 

Merger Agreement

 

On February 20, 2007, Holdings, KCPC and the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) which provides that, subject to certain conditions, KCPC will be merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”). As a result of the Merger, the Company will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdings. The governance of Holdings is described in the Letter Agreement in Item 2 above, which is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”) and as a result of the Merger, except as otherwise provided for in the Merger Agreement, each share of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into the right to receive $22.53 in cash, without interest (the “Merger Consideration”). As of the Effective Time, all such shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate representing any such shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto except the right to receive the Merger Consideration upon the surrender of such certificate in accordance with the Merger Agreement.

 

The consummation of the Merger is subject to the approval of the Company’s stockholders, receipt of necessary clearance under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act and other customary closing conditions.

 

Voting Agreement

Pursuant to its Voting Agreement, each
