Remarks: |
On May 25, 2007, OMX AB ("OMX") and The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. (the "Issuer") entered into a Transaction Agreement (the "Transaction Agreement"). Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Transaction Agreement, the Issuer will make a cash and stock tender offer (the "Offer") to acquire all of OMX's outstanding shares. The consideration offered in the Offer is equivalent to 0.502 new shares of Common Stock of the Issuer plus SEK94.3 for each OMX share. The board of directors of each of OMX and the Issuer has approved the Transaction Agreement. On May 25, 2007, OMX entered into three Voting Agreements (the "Voting Agreements") with certain holders of voting securities of the Issuer (the "Securityholders"). Approval of the Issuer's shareholders of the issuance of the new shares of Common Stock in connection with the Offer by the required vote under applicable law and NASDAQ exchange rules is a condition to completion of the Offer. OMX's purpose in entering into the Voting Agreements was to increase the likelihood that such condition is satisfied. OMX does not have any pecuniary interest in the securities held by the Securityholders. For more information about the Voting Agreements, including certain voting limitations arising from the Issuer's Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, and other matters relating thereto, please see the Schedule 13D filed by OMX on June 4, 2007 relating to the Issuer's common stock. |
