Participants in the Merger Solicitation
This document does not constitute a solicitation of proxy, an offer to purchase or a solicitation of an offer to sell any securities, nor shall there be any
sale of securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. No offer of securities shall be made except by means of a
prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company, its directors, executive officers and certain employees may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from the
stockholders of the Company in connection with the proposed merger. Information about the persons who may, under the rules of the SEC, be considered to be participants in the solicitation of the Companys stockholders in connection with the
proposed merger, and any interest they have in the proposed merger, are set forth in the definitive proxy statement, which was filed with the SEC on May 20, 2019. Additional information regarding these individuals is set forth in the
Companys proxy statement for its 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, which was filed with the SEC on April 18, 2019, and its Annual Report on Form
10-K
for the fiscal year ended December 31,
2018, which was filed with the SEC on February 15, 2019. These documents may be obtained for free at the SECs website at www.sec.gov, and via the Companys Investor Relations section of its website at www.wabco-auto.com.
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This document may include forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, without
limitation, statements relating to the completion of the merger. In this context, forward-looking statements often address expected future business and financial performance and financial condition, and often contain words such as
expect, anticipate, intend, plan, believe, seek, see, will, would, target, similar expressions, and variations or negatives of
these words. Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain, such as statements about the consummation of the proposed merger and the anticipated benefits thereof. These and other forward-looking
statements are not guarantees of future results and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements, including the failure to consummate
the proposed merger or to make any filing or take other action required to consummate such merger in a timely matter or at all. The inclusion of such statements should not be regarded as a representation that any plans, estimates or expectations
will be achieved. You should not place undue reliance on such statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from such plans, estimates or expectations include, among others, that: (1) the Company may be
unable to obtain stockholder approval as required for the merger; (2) conditions to the closing of the merger, including obtaining required regulatory approvals, may not be satisfied or waived on a timely basis or otherwise; (3) a
governmental entity or a regulatory body may prohibit, delay or refuse to grant approval for the consummation of the merger and may require conditions, limitations or restrictions in connection with such approvals that can adversely affect the
anticipated benefits of the proposed merger or cause the parties to abandon the proposed merger; (4) the merger may involve unexpected costs, liabilities or delays; (5) the business of the Company may suffer as a result of uncertainty
surrounding the merger or the potential adverse changes to business relationships resulting from the proposed merger; (6) legal proceedings may be initiated related to the merger and the outcome of any legal proceedings related to the merger
may be adverse to the Company; (7) the Company may be adversely affected by other general industry, economic, business, and/or competitive factors; (8) there may be unforeseen events, changes or other circumstances that could give rise to
the termination of the merger agreement or affect the ability to recognize benefits of the merger; (9) risks that the proposed merger may disrupt current plans and operations and present potential difficulties in employee retention as a result
of the merger; (10) risks related to diverting managements attention from the Companys ongoing business operations; (11) there may be other risks to consummation of the merger, including the risk that the merger will not be
consummated within the expected time period or at all which may affect the Companys business and the price of the common stock of the Company; and (12) the risks described from time to time in the Companys reports filed with the SEC
under the heading Risk Factors, including the Annual Report
on Form 10-K for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, Quarterly Reports
on Form 10-Q and
Current Reports
on Form 8-K and
in other of the Companys filings with the SEC. Such risks include, without
limitation: the effects of competition in the businesses in which the Company operates; the Companys ability to adapt to a rapidly changing industry and maintain strategic relationships with industry leading companies; and the impacts of
security breaches and data loss and our vulnerability to technology infrastructure failures. Consequences of material differences in results as compared with those anticipated in the forward-looking statements could include, among other things,
business disruption, operational problems, financial loss, legal liability to third parties and similar risks, any of which could have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition, results of operations, credit rating or
liquidity. These risks, as well as other risks associated with the proposed merger, are more fully discussed in the definitive proxy statement that was filed with the SEC in connection with the proposed merger on May 20, 2019. There can be no
assurance that the merger will be completed, or if it is completed, that it will close within the anticipated time period or that the expected benefits of the merger will be realized. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these
forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which such statements were made. Except as required by applicable law, the Company undertakes no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances
arising after such date.
