CONT

In the jargon of the industry, lock-up agreements can be "soft" or "hard". In a soft lock-up agreement, the significant shareholder agrees to tender its shares into the bid, but reserves the right to tender its shares into a higher-priced bid should one come along during the time the original bid is in play. In a hard lock-up agreement, the shareholder commits to tender its shares into the bid no matter what.

CONT

Lock-up arrangements are agreements between certain shareholders to sell their shares to a potential acquiring company before a formal offer is made to other shareholders.
