Going Private definition

Going Private. Transactions. Rule 13e-3 under the Exchange Act is applicable to certain “going private” transactions and may under certain circumstances be applicable to the Merger. However, Rule 13e-3 will be inapplicable if (a) the Shares are deregistered under the Exchange Act prior to the Merger or another business combination or (b) the Merger or other business combination is consummated within one year after the purchase of the Shares pursuant to the Offer and the amount paid per Share in the Merger or other business combination is at least equal to the amount paid per Share in the Offer. Neither Parent nor Purchaser believes that Rule 13e-3 will be applicable to the Merger.
Going Private. Transactions. The Commission has adopted Rule 13e-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act (“Rule 13e-3”), which is applicable to certain “going private” transactions and which may, under certain circumstances, be applicable to the Merger. However, Rule 13e-3 would be inapplicable if (1) the Shares are deregistered under the Securities Exchange Act prior to the Merger or other business combination or (2) the Merger or other business combination is consummated within one year after the purchase of the Shares pursuant to the Offer and the amount paid per Share in the Merger or other business combination is at least equal to the amount paid per Share in the Offer. Dick’s and Purchaser believe that Rule 13e-3 will not be applicable to the Merger because it is anticipated that the Merger will be effected within one year following the consummation of the Offer and, in the Merger, the Gxxxxx’x shareholders will receive the same price per Share as paid in the Offer. If applicable, Rule 13e-3 requires, among other things, that certain financial information concerning the fairness of the proposed transaction and the consideration offered to minority shareholders in the transaction be filed with the Commission and disclosed to shareholders prior to the consummation of the transaction.
Going Private shall include any transaction that results in the occurrence of any of the following events: (i) the Company’s common stock is no longer listed on any national securities exchange or quoted on the Nasdaq National Market or other securities quotation system; (ii) the Company is no longer subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act; or (iii) the Company becomes subject to Rule 13e-3 under the Exchange Act.
