Amendment No. 1 provided that, as long as the Merger Agreement was not validly terminated, none of the approval, execution, delivery or performance of the Merger Agreement, or the consummation prior to the termination of the Merger Agreement of the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, would (i) result in a Shares Acquisition Date, a Distribution Date (each as defined in the Rights Agreement) or in any way permit any Rights (as defined in the Rights Agreement) to be exercised pursuant to the Rights Agreement for consideration or exchanged; (ii) constitute an event set forth in Section 11(a) or Section 13 of the Rights Agreement; (iii) cause any of Parent, Merger Sub or their respective Affiliates or Associates (each as defined in the Rights Agreement) to be deemed to be an Acquiring Person (as defined in the Rights Agreement) for any purpose in the Rights Agreement (it being understood that future actions by any Affiliate or Associate could still result in such Affiliate or Associate being an Acquiring Person for purposes of the Rights Agreement); or (iv) cause any officer, director or employee of Parent, Merger Sub or their respective Affiliates or Associates to be deemed to be, solely by reason of such Person’s (as defined in the Rights Agreement) status or authority as such, the “Beneficial Owner” (as defined in the Rights Agreement) of or to “beneficially own” any securities that are “beneficially owned” (each as defined in the Rights Agreement) by Parent, Merger Sub or their respective Affiliates or Associates, including in a fiduciary capacity.

Pursuant to Amendment No. 1, immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), and without any further action by the Rights Agent (as defined in the Rights Agreement), the Company, Parent, Merger Sub or any then-current or former holder of Rights (as defined in the Rights Agreement), the Rights Agreement, the Rights, and any right to exercise the Rights provided for under the Rights Agreement terminated, expired and became void and of no further force or effect.

Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each share of Class A Common stock, $1.00 par value per share, of the Company (each, a “Class A Common Share”) and each share of Class B Common stock, $1.00 par value per share, of the Company (each, a “Class B Common Share” and together with the Class A Common Shares, the “Shares”) that was issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than certain excluded Shares as set forth in the Merger Agreement (such shares, the “Excluded Shares”)) was converted into the right to receive $16.19, payable to the holder thereof in cash, without interest (the “Merger Consideration”), and as of the Effective Time, all such Shares were no longer outstanding and were automatically cancelled.

At or immediately prior to the Effective Time, each award of restricted stock units granted under the Company’s 2012 Long-Term Incentive Plan or the Company’s 2021 Long-Term Incentive Plan (each, a “Company Equity Plan” and, collectively, the “Company Equity Plans”) that was subject to vesting conditions based solely on continued employment or service (each, a “Company RSU”) or was subject to performance-based vesting conditions (each, a “Company PSU” and, together with the Company RSUs, the “Company Equity Awards”) that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether vested or unvested, was cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest (less applicable tax withholdings), equal to (A) the number of Shares subject to such Company Equity Award immediately prior to the Effective Time (in the case of Company PSUs, assuming full satisfaction of the performance-based vesting conditions at maximum levels) with any remaining service-based vesting requirements deemed fully satisfied, multiplied by (B) the Merger Consideration. Each of the Company Equity Plans was terminated as of the Effective Time.  

The information set forth in the Introductory Note of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference. The description of the Merger and the Merger Agreement contained in this Item 2.01 does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which was included as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by the Company on March 11, 2024 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

In connection with the consummation of the Merger, the Company notified representatives of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) that the Merger had been completed and requested that NYSE delist the Class A Common Shares. As a result, shares of Class A Common Shares ceased to trade prior to market open on May 23, 2024, and became eligible for delisting from NYSE and termination of registration under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The Company has requested that NYSE file with the SEC a Notification of Removal From Listing and Registration on Form 25 to delist the Class A Common Shares from NYSE under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act on May 23, 2024. After the Form 25 becomes effective, the Surviving Corporation intends to file a Form 15 with the SEC to terminate the registration of Shares under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act and suspend its reporting obligations with the SEC under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

The disclosure set forth in the Introductory Note of this Current Report on Form 8-K and the disclosure set forth in Item 2.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K are incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

The disclosure set forth in the Introductory Note of this Current Report on Form 8-K and the disclosure set forth in Items 2.01, 3.01 and 5.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K are incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5.01 Changes in Control of Registrant.
