Current report
Completion of the Mergers is subject to the conditions contained in the Merger Agreement and if these conditions are not satisfied or waived, or if the Merger Agreement is terminated, the Mergers will not be completed.
Current report
In addition, although Amazon and the Company have agreed in the Merger Agreement to use their reasonable best efforts to complete the Mergers as promptly as practicable, many of the closing conditions are not within Amazon’s or the Company's control, and neither Amazon nor the Company can predict when or if these conditions will be satisfied. If any of these conditions are not satisfied or waived prior to April 13, 2027, which deadline may be extended to 11:59 p.m. (New York City time) on October 13, 2027 and further extended to 11:59 p.m. (New York City time) on April 13, 2028 under certain circumstances, it is possible that the Merger Agreement will be terminated. The failure to satisfy all of the required conditions could delay the completion of the Mergers for a significant period of time or prevent it from occurring. Any delay in completing the Mergers could cause the Company not to realize some or all of the benefits that it expects to achieve if the Mergers are successfully completed within its expected timeframe. There can be no assurance that the closing conditions will be satisfied or waived or that the Mergers will be completed.
