Item
1.01 Entry
into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On
October 1, 2010, Capital Gold Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) entered into an
Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Gammon
Gold Inc., a corporation incorporated under Part 1A of the Companies Act
(Quebec) (“Gammon”), and
Capital Gold AcquireCo, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly owned
subsidiary of Gammon (“MergerCo”).
Pursuant
to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company and Gammon intend to effect a
merger (the “Merger”) of
the Company with and into MergerCo, with the Company continuing as the surviving
entity following the Merger (the “Surviving
Company”). By virtue of the Merger, the separate existence of
each of the Company and MergerCo shall thereupon cease, and the Surviving
Company shall continue its corporate existence under the laws of the State of
Delaware as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Gammon. Pursuant to the
terms of the Merger Agreement, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on
the part of the Company or the holders of any securities of the Company or
Gammon, each share of the common stock, par value $.0001, of the Company (“Company Common Stock”)
(including all Company Restricted Stock (as defined in the Merger Agreement))
issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (as defined in
the Merger Agreement), except for shares of Company Common Stock owned by
Gammon, MergerCo or the Company, shall be converted into the right to receive
(i) 0.5209 (the “Exchange
Ratio”) validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable common shares, no
par value, of Gammon (“Gammon
Common Shares”), and (ii) US$0.79 in cash.
The board
of directors for each of the Company and Gammon have unanimously approved the
Merger Agreement and the Company’s board of directors recommends that its
stockholders vote to approve the Merger, the Merger Agreement and each other
proposal to be set forth in the definitive proxy statement/prospectus, at the
special meeting of the Company’s stockholders to be held.
If
approved, the Merger is expected to be consummated promptly following the
receipt by the Company of approval from its stockholders, and the satisfaction
or waiver of other conditions described herein and the Merger
Agreement.
The
Merger Agreement is described in greater detail below. This
description of the Merger Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to
the full text of such agreement which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and
incorporated by reference herein. You are urged to read the entire
Merger Agreement and the other exhibits attached hereto.
The
Merger Agreement has been included to provide investors and stockholders with
information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual
information about the Company, Gammon or their respective subsidiaries and
affiliates. The Merger Agreement contains representations and
warranties of each of the Company, on the one hand, and Gammon and MergerCo, on
the other hand, made solely for the benefit of the other. The assertions
embodied in those representations and warranties are qualified by information in
confidential disclosure schedules that the parties have exchanged in connection
with signing the Merger Agreement. The disclosure schedules contain information
that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations and
warranties set forth in the Merger Agreement. Moreover, certain representations
and warranties in the Merger Agreement were used for the purpose of allocating
risk between the Company, on the one hand, and Gammon and MergerCo, on the other
hand. Accordingly, you should not rely on the representations and warranties in
the Merger Agreement as characterizations of the actual state of facts about the
Company, Gammon or MergerCo.
Closing
and Effective Time of the Merger
The
Merger is expected to be consummated no later than the fifth Business Day (as
defined in the Merger Agreement) after satisfaction or (to the extent permitted
by applicable law) waiver of the conditions described below under the caption
“Conditions to the Closing of the Merger,” unless the Company and Gammon agree
in writing to hold the closing at another time.
Consideration
Each
share of Company Common Stock (including all Company Restricted Stock) issued
and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (except for shares of
Company Common Stock owned by Gammon, MergerCo or the Company) shall be
converted into the right to receive Gammon Common Shares in the agreed upon
Exchange Ratio of 1 share of Company Common Stock for 0.5209 of a share of
Gammon Common Shares, and (ii) US$0.79 in cash (collectively, the “Merger
Consideration”).
Upon the
exchange of Company Common Stock for Gammon Common Stock, all Company Common
Stock shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the
holders of Company Common Stock, be automatically cancelled and shall cease to
exist, and each holder of Company Common Stock will cease to have any rights
with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration,
subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement.
Voting
and Support Agreement
Each
officer and director of the Company (each, a “Locked-up Stockholder”) has
entered into a voting and support agreement, dated as of September 30, 2010,
with Gammon and MergerCo, in the form attached as Exhibit A to the Merger
Agreement, pursuant to which each Locked-up Stockholder has agreed, among other
things, to vote all of the Company Common Stock beneficially owned by him or her
in favor of the Merger.
Non
Solicitation and Superior Proposal Provisions
Among
other covenants contained in the Merger Agreement, the Company agreed that it
shall not, directly or indirectly: (i) solicit, approve, recommend or
encourage any inquiry, announcement or consummation of any Takeover Proposal (as
defined in the Merger Agreement) or take any similar actions
(ii) participate in any way in any discussions regarding any Takeover
Proposal, (iii) approve or recommend any agreement in principle (whether or
not binding), or any merger or similar agreement intended or expected to lead to
a Takeover Proposal, (iv) waive, terminate, modify or fail to enforce any
confidentiality or standstill obligation or (v) propose publicly or resolve
to agree to do any of the foregoing.
Further,
the Company has agreed not to withdraw or withhold its support for the Merger
and must publicly reaffirm the desirability of the Merger in response to any
third-party offer to engage in a business combination with the
Company.
Notwithstanding
all of the foregoing, at any time prior to receipt of approval of the Merger by
the Company’s stockholders, the Company is permitted to respond to a bona fide
unsolicited written Takeover Proposal that is, or is reasonably likely to lead
to, a Superior Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement), provided that the
Company first notifies Gammon of such Superior Proposal and enters into a
confidentiality agreement with the person making such Takeover
Proposal. Upon written notice from the Company, Gammon shall have
five Business Days (as defined in the Merger Agreement) to make a counter
proposal to any Superior Proposal or amendment thereof and the Company will
negotiate in good faith with Gammon to permit Gammon to draft an acceptable
counter proposal such that the competing proposal is no longer a Superior
Proposal. If Gammon submits an acceptable counter proposal, the
Company is obligated to (i) cease discussions with the person who made the
formerly Superior Proposal and (ii) recommend Gammon’s counter proposal to its
stockholders.
Conditions

The
respective obligations of the parties to effect the Merger shall be subject to
the satisfaction at or prior to the Effective Time of the following conditions,
each of which may only be waived with the mutual consent of the
parties:

directors of any of them shall have any liability of any nature whatsoever under

as defined below) shall survive any termination of the Merger Agreement, and
neither party shall be relieved or released from any liabilities from a willful
breach of the Merger Agreement.
Termination
Fee
If the
Merger Agreement is terminated by Gammon because of the Company’s failure to
make the Company Recommendation or for non-compliance with the non-solicitation
provisions summarized above, then the Company shall pay to Gammon a Termination
Fee of US $10.3 million.
If the
Merger Agreement is terminated by Gammon because the Company did not obtain
stockholder approval and, prior to the Company’s stockholder meeting, a public
Takeover Proposal was publicly announced, and within 6 months of the date of
such termination the Company approves or recommends a Takeover Proposal that is
later consummated (before or after such 6 month period), then the Company shall
pay Gammon a Termination Fee prior to such the consummation of such Takeover
Proposal. In the case of the foregoing, the termination fee shall be US$10.3

entered into any agreement with respect to a Takeover Proposal or within 6
months of such termination enters into a definitive agreement with respect to a
Takeover Proposal.
If the
Merger Agreement is terminated by the Company because Gammon entered into a
Transaction that delayed the closing of the Merger by more than 12 months or by
the Gammon for any other reason then Gammon shall pay the Company a Termination
Fee of US $2 million.
