RETAILMENOT, INC. (NASDAQ:SALE) Files An 8-K Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Item1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Merger Agreement

On April10, 2017, RetailMeNot, Inc. (RetailMeNot or the Company)
entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Harland Clarke
Holdings Corp. (Parent) and R Acquisition Sub, Inc. (Purchaser)
dated as of April10, 2017 (the Merger Agreement). to the Merger
Agreement, upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof,
Purchaser will commence a tender offer (the Offer) to acquire all
of the issued and outstanding shares of Series 1 Common Stock,
$0.001 par value per share, of the Company (Company Common Stock)
at a purchase price of $11.60 per share in cash (the Offer
Price). The Companys board of directors has unanimously approved,
and determined to recommend that the stockholders of the Company
accept, the Offer.

Parent and Purchaser have agreed to commence the Offer as
promptly as practicable, but no later than April24, 2017 or such
other date as the parties may agree. The consummation of the
Offer will be conditioned on (i)there having been validly
tendered and not validly withdrawn Shares that represent a
majority of the total number of Shares issued and outstanding at
the time of the expiration of the Offer, (ii)expiration or
termination of any applicable waiting period under the
Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended,
(iii)the Merger Agreement not having been terminated in
accordance with its terms and (iv)other customary conditions.

Following the consummation of the Offer, the parties have agreed
that, following the satisfaction or waiver of the other
conditions to the closing of the merger, Parent shall execute a
short-form merger (the Merger) to Section 251(h) of the Delaware
General Corporation Law, which will not require the consent of
the Companys stockholders. As a result of the Merger, each issued
and outstanding share of Company Common Stock (other than shares
of Company Common Stock held by Parent and its subsidiaries or
held by the Company or in the Companys treasury, or held by
stockholders who are entitled to demand, and who properly demand,
appraisal rights) that is not tendered to the Offer will be
converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to
the Offer Price on the terms and conditions set forth in the
Merger Agreement. Following the effective time of the Merger, the
separate corporate existence of Purchaser shall cease, and the
Company shall continue as the surviving corporation in the
Merger.

The Merger Agreement contains representations, warranties and
covenants of the parties customary for a transaction of this
type, including, among other things, a covenant of the Company
not to solicit alternative transactions or to provide information
or enter into discussions in connection with alternative
transactions, subject to certain exceptions to allow the Companys
board of directors to exercise its fiduciary duties.

The Merger Agreement may be terminated under certain
circumstances, including in specified circumstances in connection
with superior proposals. Upon the termination of the Merger
Agreement, under specified circumstances, the Company will be
required to pay Parent, or its designee, a termination fee of
$18,000,000.

In the event the conditions to consummating the Offer have been
met on the date the Offer would otherwise expire and Purchaser
does not accept for payment and pay for the tendered shares as a
result of Parent not having received the full amount of Parents
debt financing, the Company may terminate the Merger Agreement
and Parent shall be required to pay the Company a termination fee
initially equal to $25,000,000 which scales up to $35,000,000
depending upon when the Merger Agreement is terminated.

Assuming the satisfaction of applicable conditions, the Company
expects the transaction to close in the second quarter of 2017.

transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete
and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full
text of the Merger Agreement, a copy of which is attached as
Exhibit 2.1 to this report and is incorporated herein by

America, N.A., Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner Smith Incorporated,
