Illustrative Transaction Structures Considerations[Graphic Appears Here][Graphic Appears Here]Ability to accelerate business improvement in private context and Accomplishes minority stake goal (reduced equity check) receive benefit Combined voting power with Rice Family allows for effective shared Minority stake in private company allows Intersnack more control over control time horizon to better understand U.S. market Potential board seats / minority rights More able to negotiate appropriate governance rights Provides Intersnack ability to learn upfront Ability to negotiate clear path to control upfront (if desired) Maintains appropriate public company leverage – opportunity for Robust market for third-party participation primary issuance to de-lever balance sheet Immediate opportunity from public company cost savings Public ongoing market reference can provide framework for future takeout Better positioned to integrate operations / governance with private shareholder construct Defined set of parties to govern with (vs. public shareholders)Rice Family may require certainty around full exit (vs. an option) ? Company remains public, with other public shareholders – may diminish potential influence Requires paying control premium without full control? Continued public company obligations / constraints Adding a Third-Party complicates negotiations / governance? No immediate cost savings / synergies realization Increases leverage in near-term and at time of Third-Party / Rice Family exit ? Unknown clearing price for tender offer? Partial tender offer may not be successful – public shareholders will need to see benefit of staying in public company with new controlling group? May require certain governance constraints / lock-ups? May require certain public financial disclosures for Intersnack? Ultimate takeout price may become overly expensive? Rice Family and Intersnack may have differing views and time horizons regarding exit / path to control? Prior written consent and alignment likely required from other existing insiders (subject to legal review)
