Introductory Note

 

As previously disclosed, Xplore Technologies Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated July 5, 2018, with Zebra Technologies Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and Wolfdancer Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Purchaser”). A copy of the Merger Agreement is incorporated in this Current Report on Form 8-K by reference to Exhibit 2.1 of the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed on July 5, 2018. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Current Report on Form 8-K have the meaning set forth in the Merger Agreement.

 

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, on July 17, 2018, Parent and Purchaser commenced a cash tender offer (the “Offer”) to purchase all of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”), at a purchase price of $6.00 per share (the “Offer Price”), net to the seller in cash, without interest thereon and less any applicable withholding taxes.

 

The Offer and withdrawal rights expired as scheduled at 12:00 midnight, New York city time, at the end of the day on August 13, 2018 (the “Expiration Time”). American Stock Transfer and Trust Company, LLC, the depositary for the Offer (the “Depositary”) advised Purchaser that, as of the expiration of the Offer, a total of 9,923,943 Shares had been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn in the Offer (not including 216,646 Shares tendered pursuant to notices of guaranteed delivery), representing approximately 73.1% of the Fully Diluted Shares. The number of Shares validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer satisfies the Minimum Condition. All conditions to the Offer having been satisfied, Purchaser has accepted for payment and will promptly pay for all Shares validly tendered into and not properly withdrawn from the Offer.

 

On August 14, 2018 (the “Closing Date”), pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, and in accordance with Section 251(h) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), Purchaser merged with and into the Company, with the Company being the surviving corporation (the “Merger”).

 

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time:

 

 

Each Share that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than (i) Canceled Shares (as defined below), and (ii) Shares as to which the holder thereof has properly demanded and not otherwise lost appraisal rights in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL (“Dissenting Shares”)) was converted into the right to receive cash in an amount equal to the Offer Price, upon surrender of the certificate representing such Share (or, in the case of a lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, upon delivery of an appropriate affidavit and/or indemnity, if required by Parent) or non-certificated Share represented by book-entry, in each case in the manner provided in the Merger Agreement;

 

Each Share that was owned by the Company as treasury stock immediately prior to the Effective Time, each Share owned by Parent, Purchaser or any subsidiary of Parent at the commencement of the Offer and that was owned immediately prior to the Effective Time, and each Share irrevocably accepted for purchase by Purchaser in the Offer (collectively, the “Canceled Shares”) was canceled and ceased to exist, and no consideration was paid in exchange therefor; and

 

Each share of common stock of Purchaser outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into one share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

 

As a result of Merger, the Company became a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. The aggregate cash consideration paid by Parent in the Offer and Merger was approximately $74.6 million. Parent and Purchaser funded the consideration paid to stockholders in the Offer and pursuant to the Merger through Parent’s cash on hand and borrowings under its existing credit facilities.

 

The foregoing summary description of the Merger Agreement and the transactions conducted thereunder does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the terms of the Merger Agreement.
