In the transaction, each share of Brookline common stock will be converted into 0.42 shares of Berkshire common stock, or approximately $12.68 per share of Brookline common stock, based on the $30.20 closing price of Berkshire common stock on December 13, 2024. As a result, Berkshire shareholders will own approximately 51%, Brookline shareholders will own approximately 45% of the combined company. Brookline insiders will receive substantial benefits as part of change of control arrangements.

The transaction agreement unreasonably limits competing transactions for Brookline by imposing a significant penalty if Brookline accepts a competing bid. We are investigating the conduct of Brookline’s board of directors, and whether they are fulfilling their fiduciary duties to all shareholders.
