DG and MediaMind announced on June 16, 2011 the signing of a definitive merger agreement pursuant to which DG's subsidiary, DG Acquisition Corp. VII, would commence a tender offer for all of the outstanding shares of MediaMind for $22.00 per share in cash, without interest. The tender offer and withdrawal rights expired at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Friday, July 22, 2011. On July 25, 2011, DG announced that all shares that were validly tendered and not properly withdrawn in the tender offer were accepted for payment.
Pursuant to the terms of the previously announced merger agreement entered into between DG and MediaMind, DG completed the acquisition by effecting a "short-form" merger under Delaware law and MediaMind became a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of DG. As a result of the merger, any shares of MediaMind common stock not tendered were cancelled and (other than shares, if any, owned by MediaMind, DG, DG Acquisition Corp. VII, or their subsidiaries or affiliates, or by MediaMind's stockholders who are entitled to and properly exercise their appraisal rights under Delaware law) converted into the right to receive $22.00 in cash, without interest, the same price that was paid in the tender offer.
Following the merger, MediaMind's common stock will cease to trade on NASDAQ.
