Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On April 11, 2013, MOD-PAC CORP. (the “Company”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Rosalia Capital LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Parent”), and Mandan Acquisition Corp., a New York corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), whereby Parent will acquire, through a merger transaction, the Company upon the terms and conditions specified therein (the "Merger"). Parent was formed by the Company’s Chairman, Kevin T. Keane, and the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Daniel G. Keane. Messrs. Kevin T. Keane and Daniel G. Keane and their associates and affiliates (the “Buyer Group”) are the beneficial holders of approximately 18.7% in the aggregate of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock and approximately 51.9% in the aggregate of the Company’s outstanding Class B Stock, which together represent approximately 41.0% of the aggregate voting power of the Company's stock.
At the effective time of the Merger, each share of the Company’s Common Stock and Class B Stock (other than shares owned by the Company and the Buyer Group and dissenting shares of the Company's Class B Stock) will be converted into the right to receive $8.40 per share in cash, without interest and subject to any withholding taxes (the “Merger Consideration”), and Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger as a subsidiary of Parent.
A special committee consisting of all of the independent members of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Special Committee”), based in part on a fairness opinion issued to it by its financial advisor, Western Reserve Partners LLC, unanimously determined that the Merger Agreement and the Merger were fair to and in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders (other than the Buyer Group), and recommended that the Company’s Board of Directors approve the Merger Agreement and the Merger, and that the Company’s shareholders vote for the adoption of the Merger Agreement and approval of the Merger. Based on such unanimous recommendation of the Special Committee, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the Merger Agreement and the Merger, with Mr. Kevin T. Keane and Mr. Daniel G. Keane abstaining.
In connection with the Merger, Merger Sub has entered into a commitment letter, dated April 8, 2013, with M&T Bank (the “Commitment Letter”) providing for borrowing, upon the terms and conditions specified therein, by the Company and Merger Sub of up to $22,000,000 of funding for the Merger through a combination of a $6,000,000 revolving credit facility and a $16,000,000 million term loan facility. This summary of the Commitment Letter does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the Commitment Letter attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

In connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, the Buyer Group entered into a Rollover Agreement, dated as April 11, 2013, with LeCaron Enterprises Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Family Corp”) (the “Rollover Agreement”), pursuant to which each member of the Buyer Group agreed, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, to, immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, convert all of the shares of the Company’s Class B Stock owned by such party into shares of the Company's Common Stock on a one-to-one basis in accordance with the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation and then contribute assign, transfer, convey and deliver all of the shares of the Company’s Common Stock (including those shares issued upon conversion of the Class B Stock) then owned by such party (collectively, the “Family Shares”) to Family Corp in exchange for equity interests in Family Corp. In addition to the Rollover Agreement, Family Corp entered into a Contribution Agreement, dated as of April 11, 2013, with Parent, pursuant to which Family Corp agreed to contribute the Family Shares to Parent immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger. The foregoing summary of the Rollover Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the Rollover Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2 and incorporated herein by reference.
In addition, Mr. Daniel G. Keane entered into a Limited Guarantee with the Company, dated as of April 11, 2013 (the “Limited Guarantee”). Upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Limited Guarantee, Mr. Daniel G. Keane has guaranteed the obligation of Parent under the Merger Agreement to reimburse, under certain circumstances, the Company’s transaction expenses up to a maximum amount of $500,000. This summary of the Limited Guarantee does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the Limited Guarantee, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.3 and incorporated by reference herein.
Shareholders of the Company will be asked to vote on the adoption of the Merger Agreement and the approval of the Merger at a special shareholders meeting called for such purpose that will be held on a date to be announced. The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, that the closing of the Merger is subject to a non-waiveable condition that an affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at such meeting, other than those issued and outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock or Class B Stock beneficially owned by the Buyer Group, adopt the Merger Agreement and approve the Merger.
In connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, the Company and the Buyer Group entered into a Voting Agreement, dated as of April 11, 2013 (the “Voting Agreement”), pursuant to which each member of the Buyer Group has agreed, upon the terms and conditions set forth therein, to vote its, his or her shares of the Company's Common Stock and Class B Stock in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement and the approval of the Merger. The foregoing summary of the Voting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the Voting Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.4 and incorporated herein by reference.
Under the Merger Agreement, each party’s obligation to consummate the Merger is also subject to certain other conditions, including the accuracy of the other party’s representations and warranties contained in the Merger Agreement (subject to certain qualifiers, as applicable) and the other party’s compliance with its covenants and agreements contained in the Merger Agreement in all material respects. The Merger Agreement further provides that Parent’s obligation to consummate the closing is also conditioned on there not having occurred, since December 31, 2012, a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Merger Agreement) with respect to the Company.

The Merger Agreement provides that the Company may not solicit other proposals or, subject to exceptions that permit the Company’s Board of Directors (or the Special Committee) to furnish information under certain circumstances, participate in any discussions or negotiations in response to unsolicited proposals for alternative business combination transactions.
The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for both the Company and Parent and further provides that upon the termination of the Merger Agreement under certain circumstances, the Company will be required to reimburse Parent for its transaction expenses up to a maximum of $500,000. In addition, upon the termination of the Merger Agreement under certain circumstances, Parent will be required to reimburse the Company for its transaction expenses up to a maximum of $500,000.
On April 11, 2013, the Company issued a press release announcing the execution of the Merger Agreement. A copy of the press release is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K/A as Exhibit 99.1.

SAFE HARBOR FOR FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This document contains statements that are “forward-looking statements” made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are based on current expectations or beliefs about future events. These statements are not guarantees of future events and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual events may differ materially from what is expressed in such forward-looking statements due to numerous factors. These include uncertainties regarding whether an acquisition of the Company will be consummated upon the terms and conditions contemplated by the merger agreement or at all, whether financing will be available on acceptable terms and conditions or at all, whether the Company’s shareholders will approve the transaction and whether the other conditions to consummate the transaction will be satisfied. Further information and risks regarding factors that could affect our business, operations, financial results or financial positions are discussed from time to time in the Company’s Securities and Exchange Commission filings and reports, including its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. The shareholders of the Company and other readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
