On May 29, 2020, we entered into a plan of merger, or the Plan of Merger, with our recently formed wholly owned subsidiary, Smith & Wesson Brands, Inc., a Nevada corporation, or Merger Sub, pursuant to which we agreed that Merger Sub would merge with and into our company, or the Merger. Following the consummation of the Merger, the separate existence of Merger Sub would cease, and we would continue as the surviving corporation with our name changed to Smith & Wesson Brands, Inc.
Pursuant to the Plan of Merger, (i) our articles of incorporation in effect at the effective time of the Merger, as amended pursuant to the Articles of Merger (as defined below) to change the name of the surviving corporation to Smith & Wesson Brands, Inc., would be the articles of incorporation of the surviving corporation, (ii) our bylaws in effect at the effective time of the Merger would be the bylaws of the surviving corporation, and (iii) our directors and officers immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger would be the directors and officers of the surviving corporation.
The foregoing is a summary only and does not purport to be a complete description of all of the terms, provisions, covenants, and agreements contained in the Plan of Merger, and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Plan of Merger, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.12.

The foregoing is a summary only and does not purport to be a complete description of all of the terms, provisions, covenants, and agreements contained in the Articles of Merger, and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Articles of Merger, which are attached hereto as Exhibit 3.10.
