INTRODUCTORY NOTE
As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by LoJack Corporation, a Massachusetts corporation (LoJack), with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on February 2, 2016, LoJack entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement), dated February 1, 2016, with CalAmp
Corp., a Delaware corporation (CalAmp), and Lexus Acquisition Sub, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of CalAmp (Purchaser). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on
February 16, 2016, Purchaser commenced a cash tender offer for all of LoJacks shares of common stock (the Shares), at a purchase price per Share of $6.45, net to the seller thereof in cash, without interest and
less any applicable withholding taxes (the Offer Price), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated February 16, 2016 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the
Offer to Purchase) and in the related Letter of Transmittal (which, together with the Offer to Purchase, as each may be amended or supplemented from time to time, collectively constitute the
Offer), filed as Exhibit (a)(1)(A) and Exhibit (a)(1)(B), respectively, to the Schedule TO filed with the SEC by CalAmp and Purchaser on February 16, 2016.
Item 2.01. |
Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets. |
The Offer expired at 12:00 midnight, Eastern time,
on March 14, 2016 (one minute after 11:59 p.m. Eastern time on March 14, 2016) (the Expiration Time). The depositary for the Offer advised CalAmp and Purchaser that, as of the Expiration Time, an aggregate of
15,001,866 Shares were tendered into, and not withdrawn from, the Offer (including 75,907 Shares tendered by notices of guaranteed delivery). Excluding Shares tendered by notices of guaranteed delivery that had not yet been delivered in settlement
or satisfaction of such guarantees, the validly tendered Shares, together with the 850,100 Shares already owned by Purchaser, represented approximately 80.2% of the outstanding Shares on a fully-diluted basis as of the Expiration Time. As a result,
the Minimum Condition (as defined in the Merger Agreement) was satisfied and all conditions to the Offer having been satisfied, Purchaser accepted for payment all Shares that were validly tendered and not properly withdrawn from the Offer (the
Acceptance Time).
In addition, on March 15, 2016, Purchaser announced that it had commenced a subsequent offering period,
which expired at 12:00 midnight, Eastern time, on March 17, 2016 (one minute after 11:59 p.m. Eastern time on March 17, 2016). The depositary for the Offer advised CalAmp and Purchaser that, as of the expiration of the subsequent offering
period, an aggregate of 16,148,232 Shares were validly tendered into and accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer. The validly tendered Shares, together with the 850,100 Shares already owned by Purchaser, represented approximately 86.4% of the
outstanding Shares on a fully-diluted basis as of the expiration of the subsequent offering period. Purchaser has accepted for payment all Shares that were validly tendered from the subsequent offering period.
On March 18, 2016, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Purchaser exercised its top-up option to purchase from LoJack an aggregate number of
additional Shares sufficient to cause Purchaser to own the number of Shares necessary for Purchaser to be merged into LoJack without a vote or consent of LoJacks shareholders (i.e. at least 90% of the Shares then outstanding), taking
into account those Shares outstanding after the exercise of the top-up option. Pursuant to the exercise of the top-up option, LoJack issued a total of 7,079,351 newly issued Shares to Purchaser for an aggregate purchase price of approximately
$45,661,814. Following exercise of the top-up option, on March 18, 2016, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement and in accordance with Section 11.05 of the Massachusetts Business Corporation Act, Purchaser merged with and into
LoJack, with LoJack being the surviving corporation (the Merger). Upon completion of the Merger, LoJack became a wholly-owned subsidiary of CalAmp.
At the Acceptance Time, each outstanding option to purchase Shares, whether or not vested and exercisable, was cancelled and converted into the right to
receive a lump sum cash payment (without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes) equal to the product of (i) the excess, if any, of (A) the Offer Price over (B) the per share exercise price for such LoJack option and
(ii) the total number of Shares underlying such LoJack option. At the Acceptance Time, each outstanding restricted stock unit award, whether vested or unvested, was cancelled and converted into the right to receive a lump sum cash payment
(without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes) equal to the product of (i) the Offer Price and (ii) the total number of Shares underlying such restricted stock unit award. At the Acceptance Time, each outstanding LoJack
restricted stock award was accelerated and became fully vested such that LoJacks right of reacquisition or repurchase, as applicable, lapsed in full effective immediately prior to the Acceptance Time. Each Share underlying such LoJack
restricted stock awards was treated as an outstanding Share, including for purposes of tendering pursuant to the Offer.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each issued and outstanding Share (other
than Shares (i) held by CalAmp or Purchaser, which Shares were cancelled and ceased to exist and (ii) by shareholders who validly exercise appraisal rights under Massachusetts law (if available) with respect to such Shares) was cancelled
and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the Offer Price.
The foregoing summary description of the Merger Agreement does not
purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Merger Agreement, which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by LoJack with the
SEC on February 2, 2016, and which is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 3.01. |
Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing. |
On
March 18, 2016, LoJack notified The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (NASDAQ) of the effectiveness of the Merger. As a result, trading in Shares on NASDAQ was suspended and NASDAQ has filed with the SEC an application on
Form 25 to remove the Shares from listing on NASDAQ and from registration under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). LoJack intends to file a certificate on
Form 15 requesting that its reporting obligations under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act be terminated.
Item 3.02. |
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities. |
The information contained in the Introductory Note and
Item 2.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02. The issuance of the top-up shares is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof.
Item 3.03. |
Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders. |
The information set forth in the Introductory
Note, Item 2.01, Item 3.01, Item 5.01 and Item 5.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 5.01. |
Changes in Control of Registrant. |
The information set forth in the Introductory Note, Item 2.01
and Item 5.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference. The total amount of the consideration payable in connection with the change in control transaction, including the
Offer and the Merger, is approximately $125.3 million. CalAmp has provided Purchaser with sufficient funds to purchase all Shares accepted for payment in the Offer and to pay the consideration payable in the Merger.
Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain
Officers.
On March 18, 2016, (i) each of Rory J. Cowan, Alan L. Bazaar, Edward F. Davis III, Gary E. Dilts, Marcia J. Hooper, Philip
Horlock, John A. Janitz, John H. MacKinnon, Randy L. Ortiz and David J. Shea resigned from his or her position as a member of the board of directors of LoJack, and any committee thereof, (ii) each of Michael Burdiek and Richard Vitelle became
members of the board of directors of LoJack and (iii) the officers of LoJack immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger became the officers of the surviving corporation of the Merger. Subsequently on March 18, 2016, CalAmp appointed
new statutory officers of LoJack, including Michael Burdiek as President and Richard Vitelle as Treasurer and Secretary.
Information about each of the
officers and directors of LoJack is contained in the Offer to Purchase and in LoJacks Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 filed with the SEC on February 16, 2016, which information is incorporated herein by
reference.

or solely by means of remote communication in accordance with Section 2.9.
Section 2.2. Annual Meetings. The annual meeting
of the shareholders of the Corporation for the election of Directors and for the transaction of such other business as properly may come before such meeting shall be held at such place, either within or without the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, or,
within the sole discretion of the Board of Directors, by remote communication, on such date and hour as may be fixed from time to time by resolution of the Board of Directors and set forth in the notice or waiver of notice of the meeting. If no
annual meeting is held, then a special meeting in lieu of an annual meeting may be held on a date determined by the Board of Directors and any action taken at such meeting shall have the same effect as though it were taken at an annual meeting.
Section 2.3. Special Meetings. Special meetings of the shareholders may be called at any time by the President (or, in the event of his
or her absence or disability, by any Vice President), or by the Board of Directors. A special meeting shall be called by the President (or, in the event of his or her absence or disability, by any Vice President), or by the Secretary, immediately
upon receipt of a written request therefor by shareholders holding in the aggregate not less than ten percent of the outstanding shares of the Corporation at the time entitled to vote at any meeting of the shareholders. Special meetings of the

Section 2.4. Notice of Meetings. Except as otherwise permitted by law, written notice of
the date, time and place of all meetings of shareholders stating the purposes of the meeting shall be given by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary (if any) or other authorized person to each shareholder entitled to vote thereat. Notice may be

any other means permitted by law, and in any case at least seven (7), but not more than sixty (60) days before the meeting.
No

Section 2.5. Quorum. At a meeting of the shareholders, a majority of votes entitled to be cast on a matter shall constitute a quorum.
If there is less than a quorum at a meeting, a majority of the shares represented may vote to adjourn indefinitely, or may vote to adjourn from time to time and without giving further notice of the adjournment other than the announcement at the
meeting at which the vote for adjournment is taken; provided, however, that if a new record date is set for the adjourned meeting, notice shall be given to anyone holding shares as of the new record date to the extent required by law. Any business
may be transacted at such adjourned meeting that might have been transacted at the meeting originally called.
Section 2.6. Voting.
Unless the Articles of Organization provide otherwise, each shareholder is entitled to one vote for each share held by such shareholder, regardless of class, on each matter voted on at a shareholders meeting. A shareholder may vote his or her
shares in person or may appoint a proxy to vote or otherwise act for him or her by signing an appointment form, either personally or by his or her attorney-in-fact. An appointment of a proxy is effective when received by the Secretary or other
officer or agent authorized to tabulate votes. Unless otherwise provided in the appointment form, an appointment is valid for a period of 11 months from the date the shareholder signed the form or, if it is undated, from the date of its receipt by
the officer or agent. An appointment of a proxy is revocable by the shareholder unless the appointment form conspicuously states that it is irrevocable and the appointment is coupled with an interest, as defined in the Massachusetts Business
Corporation Act (the Act). Subject to the provisions of Section 7.24 of the Act and to any express limitation on the proxys authority appearing on the face of the appointment form, the Corporation is entitled to accept
the proxys vote or other action as that of the shareholder making the appointment.
Section 2.7. Actions without a Meeting.
(a) Action to be taken at an annual or special shareholders meeting may be taken without a meeting if the action is
taken either: (1) by all shareholders entitled to vote on the action; or (2) to the extent permitted by the Articles of Organization, by shareholders having not less than the minimum number of votes necessary to take the action at a meeting at which
all shareholders entitled to vote on the action are present and voting. The action shall be evidenced by one or more written consents that describe the action taken, are signed by shareholders having the requisite votes, bear the date of the
signatures of such shareholders, and are delivered to the Corporation for inclusion with
2
the records of meetings within 60 days of the earliest dated consent delivered to the Corporation as required by this Section 2.7. A consent signed under this Section has the effect of a
vote at a meeting.
(b) If action is to be taken pursuant to the consent of voting shareholders without a meeting, the
Corporation, at least seven days before the action authorized by such consent is taken, shall give notice, which complies in form with the requirements of Section 2.4, of the action (1) to nonvoting shareholders in any case where such
notice would be required by law if the action were taken at a meeting, and (2) if the action is to be taken pursuant to the consent of less than all the shareholders entitled to vote on the matter, to all shareholders entitled to vote who did
not consent to the action. The notice shall contain, or be accompanied by, the same material that would have been required by law to be sent to shareholders in or with the notice of a meeting at which the action would have been submitted to the
shareholders for approval.
Section 2.8. Record Date. The Directors may fix the record date in order to determine the shareholders
entitled to notice of a shareholders meeting, to demand a special meeting, to vote, or to take any other action. If a record date for a specific action is not fixed by the Board of Directors, and is not supplied by law, the record date shall
be the close of business either on the day before the first notice is sent to shareholders, or, if no notice is sent, on the day before the meeting or, in the case of action without a meeting by written consent, the date the first shareholder signs
the consent. A record date fixed under this Section may not be more than 70 days before the meeting or action requiring a determination of shareholders. A determination of shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a shareholders meeting
is effective for any adjournment of the meeting unless the Board of Directors fixes a new record date, which it shall do if the meeting is adjourned to a date more than 120 days after the date fixed for the original meeting.
Section 2.9. Meetings by Remote Communication. Unless otherwise provided in the Articles of Organization, if authorized by the
Directors: any annual or special meeting of shareholders need not be held at any place but may instead be held solely by means of remote communication. Subject to such guidelines and procedures as the Board of Directors may adopt, shareholders and
proxyholders not physically present at a meeting of shareholders may, by means of remote communications: (a) participate in a meeting of shareholders; and (b) be deemed present in person and vote at a meeting of shareholders whether such
meeting is to be held at a designated place or solely by means of remote communication, provided that: (i) the Corporation shall implement reasonable measures to verify that each person deemed present and permitted to vote at the meeting by
means of remote communication is a shareholder or proxyholder; (ii) the Corporation shall implement reasonable measures to provide such shareholders and proxyholders a reasonable opportunity to participate in the meeting and to vote on matters
submitted to the shareholders, including an opportunity to read or hear the proceedings of the meeting substantially concurrently with such proceedings; and (iii) if any shareholder or proxyholder votes or takes other action at the meeting by
means of remote communication, a record of such vote or other action shall be maintained by the Corporation.
3
Section 2.10. Permissible Forms of Shareholder Action.
(a) Any vote, consent, waiver, proxy appointment or other action by a shareholder or by the proxy or other agent of any
shareholder shall be considered given in writing, dated and signed, if, in lieu of any other means permitted by law, it consists of an electronic transmission that sets forth or is delivered with information from which the Corporation can determine
(i) that the electronic transmission was transmitted by the shareholder, proxy or agent or by a person authorized to act for the shareholder, proxy or agent; and (ii) the date on which such shareholder, proxy, agent or authorized person
transmitted the electronic transmission. The date on which the electronic transmission is transmitted shall be considered to be the date on which it was signed. The electronic transmission shall be considered received by the Corporation if it has
been sent to any address specified by the Corporation for the purpose or, if no address has been specified, to the principal office of the Corporation, addressed to the Secretary or other officer or agent having custody of the records of proceedings
of shareholders.
(b) Any copy, facsimile or other reliable reproduction of a vote, consent, waiver, proxy appointment or
other action by a shareholder or by the proxy or other agent of any shareholder may be substituted or used in lieu of the original writing for any purpose for which the original writing could be used, but the copy, facsimile or other reproduction
shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original writing.

of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under the provisions of these Bylaws with respect to the

Corporation or who is or was serving at the Corporations request as a director, manager, officer, partner, trustee, employee, or agent of another domestic or foreign corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust,

the plan or to participants in or beneficiaries of the plan. Director or Officer includes, unless the context requires otherwise, the estate or personal representative of a director or officer.
(c) Disinterested Director means a director who, at the time of a vote or selection referred to in
Section 5.4, is neither a party to the proceeding, nor an individual having a familial, financial, professional, or employment relationship with the director whose indemnification or advance for expenses is the subject of the decision being
made, which relationship would, in the circumstances, reasonably be expected to exert an influence on the directors judgment when voting on the decision being made.
(d) The term expenses shall be broadly construed and shall include, without limitation, court costs,
attorneys fees, witness fees and any other costs and expenses of any nature or kind incurred in connection with any proceeding.
(e) Liability shall be broadly construed and shall include, without limitation, the obligation to pay a judgment,

made, a defendant or respondent in a proceeding, or is a participant in a proceeding as a witness, or otherwise involved or threatened to be involved in a proceeding.
(g) The term proceeding shall be broadly construed and shall include, without limitation, the investigation,
preparation, prosecution, defense, settlement, arbitration and appeal of, and the giving of testimony in, any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, and whether formal
or informal.
Section 5.2. Indemnification of Officers, Directors. The Corporation shall, to the fullest extent legally
permissible, indemnify any person who is a Party to a proceeding against all Liability incurred by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a Director or Officer of the Corporation, while serving or thereafter.

Act or that the proceeding involves conduct for which Liability has been eliminated under a provision of the Articles of Organization as authorized by Section 2.02(b)(4) of the Act or any successor provision to such Section; and (ii) his
or her written undertaking to repay any funds advanced if he or she is not wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of such proceeding and it is ultimately determined pursuant to Section 5.4 or by a court of competent
jurisdiction that he or she has not met the relevant standard of conduct under the Act. Such undertaking must be an unlimited general obligation of the Director or Officer but need not be secured and shall be accepted without reference to the
financial ability of the Director or Officer to make repayment; or
(b) such other written affirmation and/or written
undertaking, which form may be provided under an indemnification agreement between the Corporation and such Director or Officer.
Section
5.4. Determination of Indemnification. Unless an indemnification agreement between the Corporation and a Director or Officer provides otherwise (and such provision is legally permissible), upon written request seeking indemnification

provide indemnification, shall be made:
(a) if there are two or more Disinterested Directors, by the Board of Directors by
a majority vote of all the Disinterested Directors, a majority of whom shall for such purpose constitute a quorum, or by a majority of the members of a committee of two or more Disinterested Directors appointed by vote;
8
(b) by special legal counsel (1) selected in the manner prescribed in
paragraph (a); or (2) if there are fewer than two Disinterested Directors, selected by the Board of Directors, in which selection Directors who do not qualify as Disinterested Directors may participate; or
(c) by the shareholders, but shares owned by or voted under the control of (1) a Director who at the time does not qualify
as a Disinterested Director, or (2) a person not independent of any person with respect to whom such determination is being made may not be voted on the determination.
Section 5.5. Insurance. The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a Director, officer,
employee, fiduciary, or agent of the Corporation against any Liability asserted against and incurred by such person in any such capacity or arising out of such persons position, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify
against such Liability under the provisions of the Articles of Organization or these Bylaws.
Section 5.6. Not an Exclusive Remedy.
The indemnification provided herein shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those indemnified may be entitled under the Articles of Organization, these Bylaws, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested Directors, statute,
or otherwise, and shall inure to the benefit of their heirs, executors, and administrators.
Section 5.7. Indemnification of Other
Persons. The provisions of this Article V shall not be deemed to preclude the Corporation from indemnifying other persons from similar or other expenses and liabilities as the Board of Directors or the shareholders may determine in a specific
instance or by resolution of general application.
Section 5.8. Contractual Nature. The obligations of the Corporation to indemnify
a director, officer, trustee, employee or agent under this Article V, including the duty to advance expenses, shall be considered a contract between the Corporation and such director, officer, trustee, employee or agent, and no modification or
repeal of any provision of this Article V shall affect, to the detriment of such director, officer, trustee, employee or agent, such obligations of the Corporation in connection with a claim based on any act or failure to act occurring before such
modification or repeal.
Section 5.9. Savings Clause. If this Article V or any portion thereof shall be invalidated on any ground
by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify each Indemnitee as to all charges with respect to any proceeding to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Article V that shall not have
been invalidated or by any other applicable law.
(a) Application of this Article. If the laws of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts are hereafter amended from time to time to increase the scope of permitted indemnification, indemnification hereunder shall be provided to the fullest extent permitted or required by any such amendment.
9
(b) Any repeal or modification of this Article V shall only be prospective and
shall not affect the rights under this Article V in effect at the time of the alleged occurrence of any action or omission to act that is the cause of any proceeding against any agent of the Corporation.
ARTICLE VI
