EXHIBIT 1
STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT, dated as of May 26, 1998 (the "Agreement"), between
MAY & XXXX, INC., a Delaware corporation ("Issuer"), and Acxiom Corporation, a
Delaware corporation ("Grantee").
RECITALS
A. Issuer and Grantee have entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger,
dated as of the date hereof (the "Merger Agreement"; defined terms used but not
defined herein have the meanings set forth in the Merger Agreement), providing
for, among other things, the merger of Sub with and into Issuer pursuant to the
terms of the Merger; and
B. As a condition and inducement to Grantee's willingness to enter into
the Merger Agreement, Grantee has requested that Issuer agree, and Issuer has
agreed, to grant Grantee the Option (as defined below).
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the respective
representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein, Issuer
and Grantee agree as follows:
1. Grant of Option. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein,
Issuer hereby grants to Grantee an irrevocable option (the "Option") to purchase
up to 19.9% of the number of shares (the "Option Shares") of common stock, par
value $0.01 per share ("Issuer Common Stock"), of Issuer issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the grant of the Option at a purchase price of $14.96 (as
adjusted as set forth herein) per Option Share (the "Purchase Price").
2. Exercise of Option. (a) Grantee may exercise the Option, with respect
to any or all of the Option Shares at any one time, subject to the provisions of
Section 2(c), upon the occurrence of a Purchase Event (as defined in Section
7(c)), except that (i) subject to the last sentence of this Section 2(a), the
Option will terminate and be of no further force and effect upon the earliest to
occur of (A) the Effective Time, (B) six months after the date on which a
Purchase Event (as defined herein) occurs, and (C) termination of the Merger
Agreement in accordance with its terms prior to the occurrence of a Purchase
Event, unless, in the case of clause (C), the Grantee has the right to receive
the Company Termination Fee following such termination upon the occurrence of
certain events, in which case the Option will not terminate until the later of
(x) six months following the time such Company Termination Fee becomes payable
and (y) the expiration of the period in which the Grantee has such right to
receive the Company Termination Fee, and (ii) any purchase of Option Shares upon
exercise of the Option will be subject to compliance with the HSR Act and the
obtaining or making of any consents, approvals, orders, notifications or
authorizations, the failure of which to have obtained or made would have the
effect of making the
1
issuance of Option Shares illegal (the "Regulatory Approvals") and no
preliminary or permanent injunction or other order by any court of competent
jurisdiction prohibiting or otherwise restraining such issuance shall be in
effect. Notwithstanding the termination of the Option, Grantee will be entitled
to purchase the Option Shares if it has exercised the Option in accordance with
the terms hereof prior to the termination of the Option, and the termination of
the Option will not affect any rights hereunder which by their terms do not
terminate or expire prior to or as of such termination.
(b) In the event that Grantee wishes to exercise the Option, it will
send to Issuer a written notice (an "Exercise Notice"; the date of which
being herein referred to as the "Notice Date") to that effect which
Exercise Notice also specifies the number of Option Shares, if any, Grantee
wishes to purchase pursuant to this Section 2(b), the number of Option
Shares, if any, with respect to which Grantee wishes to exercise its Cash-
Out Right (as defined herein) pursuant to Section 7(c), the denominations
of the certificate or certificates evidencing the Option Shares which
Grantee wishes to purchase pursuant to this Section 2(b) and a date not
earlier than 20 business days nor later than 30 business days from the
Notice Date for the closing (an "Option Closing") of such purchase (an
"Option Closing Date"). Any Option Closing will be at an agreed location
and time in New York, New York on the applicable Option Closing Date or at
such later date as may be necessary so as to comply with clause (ii) of
Section 2(a).
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any
exercise of the Option and purchase of Option Shares shall be subject to
compliance with applicable laws and regulations, which may prohibit the purchase
of all the Option Shares specified in the Exercise Notice without first
obtaining or making certain Regulatory Approvals. In such event, if the Option
is otherwise exercisable and Grantee wishes to exercise the Option, the Option
may be exercised in accordance with Section 2(b) and Grantee shall acquire the
maximum number of Option Shares specified in the Exercise Notice that Grantee is
then permitted to acquire under the applicable laws and regulations, and if
Grantee thereafter obtains the Regulatory Approvals to acquire the remaining
balance of the Option Shares specified in the Exercise Notice, then Grantee
shall be entitled to acquire such remaining balance. Issuer agrees to use its
reasonable best efforts to assist Grantee in seeking the Regulatory Approvals.
In the event (i) Grantee receives official notice that a Regulatory
Approval required for the purchase of any Option Shares will not be issued or
granted or (ii) such Regulatory Approval has not been issued or granted within
six months of the date of the Exercise Notice, Grantee shall have the right to
exercise its Cash-Out Right (as defined herein) pursuant to Section 7(c) with
respect to the Option Shares for which such Regulatory Approval will not be
issued or granted or has not been issued or granted.
3. Payment and Delivery of Certificates. (a) At any Option Closing,
Grantee will pay to Issuer in same day funds by wire transfer to a bank account
designated in writing by Issuer an amount equal to the Purchase Price multiplied
by the number of Option Shares to be purchased at such Option Closing.
2
(b) At any Option Closing, simultaneously with the delivery of same
day funds as provided in Section 3(a), Issuer will deliver to Grantee a
certificate or certificates representing the Option Shares to be purchased
at such Option Closing, which Option Shares will be free and clear of all
liens, claims, charges and encumbrances of any kind whatsoever. If at the
time of issuance of Option Shares pursuant to an exercise of the Option
hereunder, Issuer shall not have issued any securities similar to rights
under a shareholder rights plan, then each Option Share issued pursuant to
such exercise will also represent such a corresponding right with terms
substantially the same as and at least as favorable to Grantee as are
provided under any Issuer shareholder rights agreement or any similar
agreement then in effect.
(c) Certificates for the Option Shares delivered at an Option Closing will
have typed or printed thereon a restrictive legend which will read substantially
as follows:
"THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1993, AND MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR
OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED ONLY IF SO REGISTERED OR IF ANY EXEMPTION FROM SUCH
REGISTRATION IS AVAILABLE. SUCH SECURITIES ARE ALSO SUBJECT TO ADDITIONAL
RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER AS SET FORTH IN THE STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT, DATED
AS OF MAY 26, 1998, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE SECRETARY OF
MAY & XXXX, INC. AT ITS PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE OFFICES."
It is understood and agreed that (i) the reference to restrictions arising under
the Securities Act in the above legend will be removed by delivery of substitute
certificate(s) without such reference if such Option Shares have been sold in
compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the
Securities Act, such Option Shares have been sold in reliance on and in
accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act or Grantee has delivered to
Issuer a copy of a letter from the staff of the SEC, or an opinion of counsel in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Issuer and its counsel, to the
effect that such legend is not required for purposes of the Securities Act and
(ii) the reference to restrictions pursuant to this Agreement in the above
legend will be removed by delivery of substitute certificate(s) without such
reference if the Option Shares evidenced by certificate(s) containing such
reference have been sold or transferred in compliance with the provisions of
this Agreement under circumstances that do not require the retention of such
reference.
4. Incorporation of Representations and Warranties of Issuer. The
representations and warranties of Issuer contained in Article V of the Merger
Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference herein with the same force and
effect as though made pursuant to this Agreement.
5. Representations and Warranties of Issuer. Issuer hereby represents and
warrants to Grantee as follows:
(a) Corporate Authorization. Issuer has the corporate power and
authority to enter into this Agreement and to carry out its obligations
hereunder. The execution and delivery
3
of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby have been duly and validly authorized by the Board of Directors of
Issuer, and no other corporate proceedings on the part of Issuer are
necessary to authorize this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by
Issuer, and assuming this Agreement constitutes a valid and binding
agreement of Grantee, this Agreement constitutes a valid and binding
agreement of Issuer, enforceable against Issuer in accordance with its
terms (except insofar as enforceability may be limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws
affecting creditors' rights generally, or by principles governing the
availability of equitable remedies).
(b) Authorized Stock. Issuer has taken all necessary corporate and
other action to authorize and reserve and, subject to the expiration or
termination of any required waiting period under the HSR Act, to permit it
to issue, and, at all times from the date hereof until the obligation to
deliver Option Shares upon the exercise of the Option terminates, shall
have reserved for issuance, upon exercise of the Option, shares of Issuer
Common Stock necessary for Grantee to exercise the Option, and Issuer will
take all necessary corporate action to authorize and reserve for issuance
all additional shares of Issuer Common Stock or other securities which may
be issued pursuant to Section 7 upon exercise of the Option. The shares of
Issuer Common Stock to be issued upon due exercise of the Option, including
all additional shares of Issuer Common Stock or other securities which may
be issuable upon exercise of the Option or any other securities which may
be issued pursuant to Section 7, upon issuance pursuant hereto, will be
duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and will be
delivered free and clear of all liens, claims, charges and encumbrances of
any kind or nature whatsoever, including without limitation any preemptive
rights of any stockholder of Issuer.
6. Representations and Warranties of Grantee. Grantee hereby represents
and warrants to Issuer that:
(a) Corporate Authorization. Grantee has the corporate power and
authority to enter into this Agreement and to carry out its obligations
hereunder. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly and
validly authorized by the Board of Directors of Grantee, and no other
corporate proceedings on the part of Grantee are necessary to authorize
this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has
been duly and validly executed and delivered by Grantee, and assuming this
Agreement constitutes a valid and binding agreement of Issuer, this
Agreement constitutes a valid and binding agreement of Grantee, enforceable
against Grantee in accordance with its terms (except insofar as
enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors' rights
generally, or by principles governing the availability of equitable
remedies).
(b) Purchase Not For Distribution. Any Option Shares or other
securities acquired by Grantee upon exercise of the Option will not be, and
the Option is not being, acquired by
4
Grantee with a view to the public distribution thereof. Neither the Option
nor any of the Option Shares will be offered, sold, pledged or otherwise
transferred except in compliance with, or pursuant to an exemption from,
the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
7. Adjustment upon Changes in Capitalization, Etc. (a) In the event of
any changes in Issuer Common Stock by reason of a stock dividend, reverse stock
split, merger, recapitalization, combination, exchange of shares, or similar
transaction, the type and number of shares or securities subject to the Option,
and the Purchase Price therefor, will be adjusted appropriately, and proper
provision will be made in the agreements governing such transaction, so that
Grantee will receive upon exercise of the Option the number and class of shares
or other securities or property that Grantee would have received with respect to
Issuer Common Stock if the Option had been exercised immediately prior to such
event or the record date therefor, as applicable.
(b) Without limiting the parties' relative rights and obligations
under the Merger Agreement, in the event that the Issuer enters into an
agreement (i) to consolidate with or merge into any person, other than
Grantee or one of its subsidiaries, and Issuer will not be the continuing
or surviving corporation in such consolidation or merger, (ii) to permit
any person, other than Grantee or one of its subsidiaries, to merge into
Issuer and Issuer will be the continuing or surviving corporation, but in
connection with such merger, the shares of Issuer Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to the consummation of such merger will be changed into
or exchanged for stock or other securities of Issuer or any other person or
cash or any other property, or the shares of Issuer Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of such merger will,
after such merger represent less than 50% of the outstanding voting
securities of the merged company, or (iii) to sell or otherwise transfer
all or substantially all of its assets to any person, other than Grantee or
one of its subsidiaries, then, and in each such case, the agreement
governing such transaction will make proper provision so that the Option
will, upon the consummation of any such transaction and upon the terms and
condition set forth herein, be converted into, or exchanged for, an option
with identical terms appropriately adjusted to acquire the number and class
of shares or other securities or property that Grantee would have received
in respect of Issuer Common Stock if the Option had been exercised
immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, sale, or transfer, or the
record date therefor, as applicable and make any other necessary
adjustments.
(c) If, at any time during the period commencing on the occurrence of
an event as a result of which Grantee is entitled to receive the Company
Termination Fee pursuant to Section 7.12 of the Merger Agreement (the
"Purchase Event") and ending on the termination of the Option in accordance
with Section 2, Grantee sends to Issuer an Exercise Notice indicating
Grantee's election to exercise its right (the "Cash-Out-Right") pursuant to
this Section 7(c), then Issuer shall pay to Grantee, on the Option Closing
Date, in exchange for the cancellation of the Option with respect to such
number of Option Shares as Grantee specifies in the Exercise Notice, an
amount in cash equal to such number of Option Shares multiplied by the
difference between (i) the average closing price for the 10 trading days
commencing on the 12th Nasdaq trading day immediately preceding the Notice
Date, per share of Issuer Common Stock as reported on the Nasdaq National
5
Market (or, if not listed on the Nasdaq, as reported on any other national
securities ex change or national securities quotation system on which the
Issuer Common Stock is listed or quoted, as reported in The Wall Street
Journal (Northeast edition), or, if not reported thereby, any other
authoritative source) (the "Closing Price") and (ii) the Purchase Price,
except that in no event shall the Issuer be required to pay to the Grantee
pursuant to this Section 7(c) an amount exceeding the product of (x) $2.00
and (y) such number of Option Shares. Notwithstanding the termination of
the Option, Grantee will be entitled to exercise its rights under this
Section 7(c) if it has exercised such rights in accordance with the terms
hereof prior to the termination of the Option.
8. Repurchase Option. In the event that Grantee notifies Issuer of its
intention to exercise the Option pursuant to Section 2(a), Issuer may require
Grantee upon the delivery to Grantee of written notice during the period
beginning on the Notice Date and ending two days prior to the Option Closing
Date, to sell to Issuer the Option Shares acquired by Grantee pursuant to such
exercise of the Option at a purchase price per share for such sale equal to the
Purchase Price plus $2.00. The Closing of any repurchase of Option Shares
pursuant to this Section 8 shall take place immediately following consummation
of the sale of the Option Shares to Grantee on the Option Closing Date at the
location and time agreed upon with respect to such Option Closing Date.
9. Registration Rights.
(a) Grantee may by written notice (a "Registration Notice") to Issuer
request Issuer to register under the Securities Act all or any part of the
Option Shares or other securities acquired by Grantee pursuant to this
Agreement (collectively, the "Registrable Securities") in order to permit
the sale or other disposition of such securities pursuant to a bona fide,
firm commitment underwritten public offering in which Grantee and the
underwriters shall effect as wide a distribution of such Registrable
Securities as is reasonably practicable and shall use reasonable efforts to
prevent any person or group from purchasing through such offering shares
representing more than 3% of the shares of Issuer Common Stock then
outstanding on a fully-diluted basis; provided, however, that any such
-------- -------
Registration Notice must relate to a number of shares equal to at least 2%
of the shares of Issuer Common Stock then outstanding on a fully-diluted
basis and that any rights to require registration hereunder shall terminate
with respect to any shares that may be sold pursuant to Rule 144(k) under
the Securities Act.
(b) Issuer shall use reasonable best efforts to effect, as promptly as
practicable, the registration under the Securities Act of the Registrable
Securities requested to be registered in the Registration Notice; provided,
--------
however, that (i) Grantee shall not be entitled to more than an aggregate
-------
of two effective registration statements hereunder and (ii) Issuer will not
be required to file any such registration statement during any period of
time (not to exceed 40 days after a Registration Notice in the case of
clause (A) below or 90 days after a Registration Notice in the case of
clauses (B) and (C) below) when (A) Issuer is in possession of material
non-public information which it reasonably believes would be detrimental to
be disclosed at such time and, based upon the advice of outside securities
counsel to Issuer, such information would have to be disclosed if a
registration
6
statement were filed at that time; (B) Issuer would be required under the
Securities Act to include audited financial statements for any period in
such registration statement and such financial statements are not yet
available for inclusion in such registration statement; or (C) Issuer
determines, in its reasonable judgment, that such registration would
interfere with any financing, acquisition or other material transaction
involving Issuer. If the consummation of the sale of any Registrable
Securities pursuant to a registration hereunder does not occur within 180
days after the filing with the SEC of the initial registration statement
therefor, the provisions of this Section shall again be applicable to any
proposed registration, it being understood that Grantee shall not be
entitled to more than an aggregate of two effective registration statements
hereunder. Issuer will use reasonable efforts to cause each such
registration statement to become effective, to obtain all consents or
waivers of other parties which are required therefor, and to keep such
registration statement effective for such period not in excess of 180
calendar days from the day such registration statement first becomes
effective as may be reasonably necessary to effect such sale or other
disposition. Issuer shall use reasonable best efforts to cause any
Registrable Securities registered pursuant to this Section to be qualified
for sale under the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as
Grantee may reasonably request and shall continue such registration or
qualification in effect in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that
-------- -------
Issuer shall not be required to qualify to do business in, or consent to
general service of process in, any jurisdiction.
(c) If Issuer effects a registration under the Securities Act of
Issuer Common Stock for its own account or for any other stockholders of
Issuer (other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8, or any successor form), it will
allow Grantee the right to participate in such registration, and such
participation will not affect the obligation of Issuer to effect demand
registration statements for Grantee under this Section 9, except that, if
the managing underwriters of such offering advise Issuer in writing that in
their opinion the number of shares of Issuer Common Stock requested to be
included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such
offering, Issuer will include the shares requested to be included therein
by Grantee pro rata with the shares intended to be included therein by
Issuer.
(d) The registration rights set forth in this Section are subject to
the condition that Grantee shall provide Issuer with such information with
respect to Grantee Registrable Securities, the plan for distribution
thereof, and such other information with respect to Grantee as, in the
reasonable judgment of counsel for Issuer, is necessary to enable Issuer to
include in a registration statement all material facts required to be
disclosed with respect to a registration hereunder.
(e) A registration effected under this Section shall be effected at
Issuer's expense, except for underwriting discounts and commissions and the
fees and expenses of Grantee's counsel, and Issuer shall provide to the
underwriters such documentation (including certificates, opinions of
counsel and "comfort" letters from auditors) as are customary in connection
with underwritten public offerings and as such underwriters may reasonably
require. In connection with any registration, Grantee and Issuer agree
7
to enter into an underwriting agreement reasonably acceptable to each such
party, in form and substance customary for transactions of this type.
10. Transfers. The Option Shares may not be sold, assigned, transferred,
or otherwise disposed of except (i) pursuant to Section 8 hereof, (ii) in an
underwritten public offering as provided in Section 9 or (iii) to any purchaser
or transferee who would not, to the knowledge of the Grantee after reasonable
inquiry, immediately following such sale, assignment, transfer or disposal
beneficially own more than 4.9% of the then-outstanding voting power of the
Issuer, except that Grantee shall be permitted to sell any Option Shares if such
sale is made pursuant to a tender or exchange offer that has been approved or
recommended by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of Issuer
(which majority shall include a majority of directors who were directors as of
the date hereof).
11. Listing. If Issuer Common Stock or any other securities to be
acquired upon exercise of the Option are then listed on the Nasdaq (or any other
national securities exchange or national securities quotation system), Issuer,
upon the request of Grantee, will promptly file an application to list the
shares of Issuer Common Stock or other securities to be acquired upon exercise
of the Option on the Nasdaq (and any such other national securities exchange or
national securities quotation system) and will use reasonable efforts to obtain
approval of such listing as promptly as practicable.
11. Miscellaneous. (a) Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in the
Merger Agreement, each of the parties hereto will pay all costs and expenses
incurred by it or on its behalf in connection with the transactions contemplated
hereunder, including fees and expenses of its own financial consultants,
investment bankers, accountants and counsel.
(b) Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended, except by an
instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties.
(c) Extension; Waiver. Any agreement on the part of a party to waive
any provision of this Agreement, or to extend the time for performance,
will be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on
behalf of such party. The failure of any party to this Agreement to assert
any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise will not constitute a
waiver of such rights.
(d) Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement,
the Merger Agreement (including the documents and instruments attached
thereto as exhibits or schedules or delivered in connection therewith) and
the Confidentiality Agreement (i) constitute the entire agreement, and
supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral,
between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement,
and (ii) are not intended to confer upon any person other than the parties
any rights or remedies.
8
(e) Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by, and construed
in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the
laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflict of
laws thereof.
(f) Notices. All notices, requests, claims, demands, and other
communications under this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed
given if delivered personally, telecopied (which is confirmed), or sent by
overnight courier (providing proof of delivery) to the parties at the

at law or in equity. In addition, each of the parties hereto (i) consents
to submit itself to the personal jurisdiction of any Federal court located
in the State of Delaware or any Delaware state court in the event any
dispute arises out of this Agreement or any of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) agrees that it will not attempt to
deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for
leave from any such court, and (iii) agrees that it will not bring any
action relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement in any court other than a Federal court sitting in the
State of Delaware or a Delaware state court.
