On
January 7, 2010, On2 Technologies, Inc. and Google Inc. issued the following
joint press release.
PRESS
RELEASE
Google
and On2 Agree to Amend Merger Agreement
CLIFTON PARK, NY and
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. (January 7,
2010) –
On2 Technologies, Inc. (NYSE Amex: ONT) and Google Inc.
(NASDAQ: GOOG) announced today that they have agreed to amend the merger
agreement under which Google will acquire On2. Under the revised
terms, each outstanding share of On2 common stock will receive 0.0010 of a share
of Google Class A Common Stock for each share of On2 common stock, as previously
announced by On2 and Google, plus an additional $0.15 per share in cash
consideration.
The
revisions to the terms of the merger agreement serve, in part, to address the
fact that, since the acquisition was first announced in August 2009, the market
value of Google’s Class A Common Stock has increased significantly while the
value of the acquisition has remained fixed for On2’s
stockholders. By increasing the consideration offered to On2’s
stockholders by an additional $0.15 per share in cash, On2’s stockholders will
receive additional value for their On2 common stock that Google and On2 believe
better reflects the value that On2’s stockholders would have received had the
acquisition closed closer to the time of its announcement in August
2009.
This increase in the consideration
that Google is offering to On2’s stockholders constitutes Google’s final
offer.
Google
will file with the SEC a supplement to the definitive proxy
statement/prospectus, dated November 3, 2009, that will describe the
revisions to the merger agreement, including, among other things, the increase
in the consideration, and will mail the same to all holders of record of On2
common stock as of the close of business on January 15, 2010, the new
record date for the further adjourned Special Meeting of On2’s
stockholders.
On2's
further adjourned Special Meeting will be reconvened at the Comfort Suites in
Venetian Room II at 7 Northside Drive, Clifton Park, NY 12065, at 4:00 p.m. on
Wednesday, February 17, 2010. At the reconvened Special Meeting,
holders of On2 common stock as of the new record will be asked to consider and
vote upon the merger proposal and, if necessary, the adjournment proposal, as
set forth in the proxy statement/prospectus filed by Google.
On2's
board of directors approved the amendment to the merger agreement and recommends
that On2's stockholders approve the amended merger agreement and the merger
proposal.
Stockholders
who have questions about the merger, need assistance in submitting their proxy
or voting their shares (or changing a prior vote of their shares) should contact
On2’s proxy solicitor, Innisfree M&A Incorporated, toll-free at (877)
456-3488, or internationally at +1 (412) 232-3565.
