Item 2.01 | Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets. |
On December 14, 2007, Nero Acquisition LLC (Merger Sub), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Zebra Technologies Corporation (Zebra), merged with and into Navis Holdings, LLC (Navis), pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of October 15, 2007 by and among Zebra, Merger Sub, Navis and a representative of Navis members (the Merger Agreement), with Navis as the surviving entity (the Merger). The Merger Agreement was previously reported in Zebras current report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 16, 2007.
Zebra paid $145.0 million in cash as merger consideration, subject to applicable post-closing price adjustments, if any, as set forth in the Merger Agreement, and subject to an escrow amount of $25.9 million deposited at closing. In the Merger, (i) each issued and outstanding Class A Share, Class B Share, Class C Share and Class E Share of Navis was converted into the right to receive a portion of the merger consideration (after payment of all Navis transaction expenses and subject to the Escrow Agreement), and (ii) each outstanding option to acquire Class E Shares of Navis that was vested and exercisable immediately prior to the Merger was converted into the right to receive a portion of the merger consideration as set forth in the Merger Agreement. Unvested options to purchase Class E Shares of Navis were converted into options to purchase shares of Zebra Class A Common Stock, as adjusted by a conversion ratio, and will continue to vest according to their respective vesting schedules applicable prior to the conversion.
The summary description of the transaction set forth above is qualified in its entirety by the terms of the Merger Agreement, a copy of which is attached to this report as Exhibit 2.1. Zebra issued a press release on December 14, 2007 regarding the Merger, a copy of which is attached to this current report as Exhibit 99.1.
