As disclosed by the Company in the 8-K filed with the SEC on August 6,
2021:
Intersect ENT, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the “Company” or “Intersect”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger
Agreement”) with Medtronic, Inc., a Minnesota corporation (“Parent”), and Project Kraken Merger Sub, Inc.,
a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), providing for, among other things, the merger
of Merger Sub with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary
of Parent. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, Purchaser will commence a cash tender
offer (the “Offer”) to acquire all of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company, $0.001 par value
per share (the “Shares”), at a purchase price of $38.00 per Share in cash (the “Offer Price”),
without interest and subject to any withholding of taxes required by applicable legal requirements.
At the effective time of the Merger
(the “Effective Time”), each:
|
i.
|
share of Company common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Company Common Stock”) issued and outstanding as of immediately
prior to the Effective Time (other than shares owned by the Company as treasury stock, shares owned by Parent or shares held by a Company
stockholder who properly demands appraisal for such dissenting shares) will be cancelled and retired, and automatically converted into
the right to receive cash in an amount equal to $28.25, without interest (the “Per Share Price”);
|
|
ii.
|
share of Company Series D Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be canceled and
converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the Per Share Price multiplied by a factor of 1,000;
|
|
iii.
|
stock option granted by the Company to purchase Company Common Stock (each, a “Company Option”), restricted stock unit
award (each, a “Company RSU”) and restricted stock unit award with performance-based vesting requirements (each, a “Company
PSU”) that is unexpired, unexercised, outstanding and vested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time or that vests solely
as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (each, a “Vested Award”) will
be cancelled and automatically converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the product of (1) the aggregate number
of shares subject to such Vested Award, multiplied by (2) the Per Share Price (or, for each Company Option, the excess, if any, of
the Per Share Price over such Company Option’s per share exercise price);
|
|
iv.
|
Company Option not subject to performance-based vesting requirements and Company RSU that is unexpired, unexercised, outstanding and
unvested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (each, an “Unvested Non-Performance Award”) will be canceled and automatically
converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the product of (1) the aggregate number of shares subject to such
Unvested Non-Performance Award, multiplied by (2) the Per Share Price (or, for each Company Option, the excess, if any, of the Per
Share Price over such Company Option’s per share exercise price); and
|
|
v.
|
Company Option subject to performance-based vesting requirements and Company PSU that is unexpired, unexercised, and outstanding as
of immediately prior to the Effective Time that is not a Vested Award will be automatically cancelled and terminated without payment or
distribution being made in respect thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, any Company Options (whether vested or unvested) with a per share
exercise price equal to or greater than the Per Share Price will be cancelled immediately upon the Effective Time without payment or consideration.
|
(d) No
other person is known by the Reporting Persons to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the
proceeds from the sale of, any Shares that are beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons.
