Process for Stockholders to Receive Acquisition Consideration

Subject to the Acquisition becoming effective, the settlement of the Acquisition Price will generally be effected by the dispatch of cheques or by the crediting of CREST accounts, as applicable, in the following manner:

  • in the case of Depository Interests held in CREST, the cash consideration to which the Depository Interest holder is entitled to be paid by means of CREST by Exaktera procuring the creation of an assured payment obligation in favour of such Depository Interest holder; and
  • in the case of Company Common Stock held outside of CREST, the cash consideration to which a Stockholder is entitled will be made in U.S. Dollars.

All such payments will be made net of any withholding tax required to be deducted by the Paying Agent and will be remitted by the Paying Agent on behalf of Exaktera.

In the case of Company Common Stock held by U.S. Stockholders in certificated or book entry form, Stockholders may be required to provide a letter of instruction with respect to where and through which method Acquisition Consideration should be delivered.

Acquisition Consideration will be distributed to validated Stockholders as of the date of Closing within five business days of Closing. Stockholders requiring validation, Stockholders who are not holding Company Common Stock through a brokerage account and/or those Stockholders holding Company Common Stock without valid addresses of record shall receive the Acquisition Consideration upon submission of appropriate information supplied by the Paying Agent.

It should be noted that all documents and remittances sent through the post will be sent at the risk of the person(s) entitled thereto and none of the Company, Exaktera or any of their respective subsidiaries nor their nominees shall be responsible for any loss or delay in the transmission or delivery of documents and/or remittances sent in accordance with the above provisions.

Payments made by cheque shall be payable to the Stockholder concerned. Cheques will be despatched to the address appearing on the register of members of the Company (or, in the case of joint holders, to the address of the joint holder whose name stands first in the register in respect of such holdings). The encashment of any such cheque as is referred to in this paragraph shall be a complete discharge for the monies represented thereby.

For the avoidance of doubt, stockholders who hold their stock through CREST do not need to take any further action if the Merger completes as their CREST accounts will be credited automatically within five Business Days of Closing.
