Tumi Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:TUMI) (“Tumi”) announced today that
its stockholders have voted to adopt the previously announced
Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 3, 2016 (the
“Merger Agreement”), with Samsonite International S.A.
("Samsonite") (SEHK: 1910), whereby Samsonite will acquire Tumi
through an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Samsonite.
Approximately 96.8% of the votes cast at today’s special meeting
of stockholders voted in favor of the adoption of the Merger
Agreement. This represents approximately 88.5% of Tumi’s total
outstanding shares of common stock as of the June 3, 2016 record
date and constitutes a majority of the outstanding shares of Tumi
common stock entitled to vote at the special meeting, as required
to adopt the Merger Agreement under the General Corporation Law of
the State of Delaware. A quorum of 91.3% of Tumi’s total
outstanding shares of common stock as of the June 3, 2016, record
date voted at the special meeting.
In addition, approximately 97.8% of votes cast by Tumi
stockholders at the special meeting approved, by means of a
non-binding, advisory basis, specified compensation that may become
payable to Tumi’s principal executive officer and principal
financial officer, in addition to Tumi’s other three most highly
compensated executive officers, in connection with the merger.
Upon completion of the merger, Tumi’s stockholders will be
entitled to receive $26.75 in cash, without interest, for each
share of Tumi’s common stock that such stockholder owns. The
merger, which is expected to be completed in the second half of
2016, is subject to the receipt of approval by Samsonite
shareholders, and the satisfaction of certain remaining customary
closing conditions as set forth in the Merger Agreement and
discussed in detail in the definitive proxy statement filed with
the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission by Tumi on June 3,
2016.
