Item 1.01
|
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
|
On November 4, 2011, Warwick Valley Telephone Company (the “Company”) entered into a Lock-up and Put Agreement, effective as of October 21, 2011, (the “Lock-up and Put Agreement”) with the members of Alteva, LLC (“Alteva”) pursuant to which each of the members agreed to certain restrictions on their ability to sell shares of the Company’s common stock issued to them in connection with the Company’s acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Alteva, LLC (the “Alteva Shares”). The Alteva acquisition was previously reported by the Company on its Current Report on Form 8-K filed on August 9, 2011 and Form 8-K/A on October 27, 2011
Under the Lock-up and Put Agreement, each member of Alteva may transfer to any of the permitted transferees up to 50% of their Alteva Shares between October 21, 2012 and December 14, 2012. The members of Alteva may sell their remaining Alteva Shares without restriction beginning on December 15, 2012.
In addition, the Lock-up and Put Agreement gives each member of Alteva the option to sell their Alteva Shares to the Company within a certain prescribed time period at a predetermined price (the “Put”). The Alteva members may exercise their Put with respect to half of their Alteva Shares within a 60-day period commencing on October 21, 2012 and the other half within a 60-day period commencing on December 15, 2012. The purchase price of the Put will be the greater of (i) the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of exercise of the Put or (ii) $11.74.
The Lock-up and Put Agreement also includes a purchase price protection for the Alteva selling shareholders. The purchase price protection provides that if the price of the Company’s common stock for the 30 trading days immediately prior to October 21, 2012 or December 15, 2012 (but excluding the three trading days prior to and after the record date for any cash dividend declared by the Company) (the “Release Date Price”) is less than $11.74, then the Company will issue to the Alteva members the aggregate number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the difference between $1,600 and the market value of 50% of the aggregate Alteva Shares on October 21, 2012 or December 15, 2012, or 100% of the aggregate Alteva Shares if the Release Date Price is less than $11.74 on both dates.
The full text of the Lock-up and Put Agreement will be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-k for the year ended December 31, 2011.
