Analyzed Economic Effects
5 provisions identified: 3 benefits, 1 costs, 1 mixed.
Rakuten Can Appoint Board Observer
If Rakuten Securities Holdings, Inc. continues to own at least 453,167 Voting Common Units in 24X US Holdings LLC, Rakuten may appoint one non-voting observer to the Board of Managers of 24X Bermuda Holdings LLC. That right ends automatically if Rakuten falls below the 453,167-unit threshold or if 24X US Holdings LLC establishes its own board.
Shinhan Can Appoint Board Observer
If Shinhan Securities Co., Ltd. continues to own at least 420,000 Voting Common Units in 24X US Holdings LLC, Shinhan may appoint one non-voting observer to the Board of Managers of 24X Bermuda Holdings LLC. That right ends automatically if Shinhan falls below the 420,000-unit threshold or if 24X US Holdings LLC establishes its own board.
Observers May Join Discussions but Not Vote
Board Observers are allowed to participate in any board discussions at meetings of the Board of Managers, but they have no right to vote. Observers may attend meetings in person or join by video or telephone for listening and participating in discussions, and they are not obliged to attend.
Observers Get Board Materials With Limits
The Company will provide Board Observers copies of notices, board materials, reports, minutes, and consents at the same time they are provided to Managers, but observers are subject to confidentiality obligations. Rakuten- or Shinhan-nominated observers will not receive materials about confidential matters not relating to 24X US Holdings LLC, and the Board may exclude an observer from meetings or materials when disclosure would waive legal privilege or be unlawful.
Removal, Resignation, and Disqualification Rules
A Board Observer may be removed or replaced at any time by the written request of the person who appointed them, and an observer who becomes subject to a statutory disqualification under Section 3(a)(39) of the Exchange Act is automatically and immediately removed. An observer may also resign at any time by delivering written resignation to the Board, effective on receipt unless a later time is specified.
