Proxy Filing summary
2 Dec, 2025Board of directors and corporate governance
NewCo's board will initially have 15 directors: 7 designated by ORCP Stockholders, 7 by unaffiliated directors from Primo Water, and 1 mutually agreed director; if ORCP Stockholders own 53%+ of Class A shares, a BlueTriton designee replaces the mutually agreed director.
Board committees (audit, nominating/governance, sustainability, human resources) will each have 4 members: 2 Sponsor Nominees and 2 Unaffiliated Directors; committee chairs are split between Sponsor and Unaffiliated Directors.
ORCP Stockholders have significant governance rights, including director nomination, committee representation, and consent rights over major corporate actions while holding at least 30% of shares.
The Non-Executive Chair (initially Dean Metropoulos) will serve a two-year term, with defined leadership and board agenda-setting responsibilities.
Lead Independent Director is selected by Unaffiliated Directors and ORCP Stockholders for the first 24 months, then by the full board.
Shareholder rights and capital structure
NewCo will have dual-class common stock: Class A (one vote per share, full voting rights) and Class B (one vote per share, but not on director elections); Class B shares are convertible to Class A under certain conditions.
ORCP Group cannot vote more than 49% of Class A shares prior to a defined sunset event; Class B shares automatically convert to Class A after certain triggers (e.g., debt repayment, date, or change of control waiver).
ORCP Stockholders have preemptive rights to purchase new equity issuances and receive advance notice of share issuances or repurchases.
Transfer restrictions apply to Sponsor Stockholders for three months post-closing, after which registration rights allow for public offerings.
Anti-takeover provisions include opt-out of DGCL Section 203 but substitute similar restrictions in the certificate of incorporation, and require supermajority board or shareholder approval for key changes.
Voting matters and shareholder proposals
Shareholders will vote on the Arrangement Resolution (requiring 66 2/3% approval) and an advisory Executive Compensation Resolution (simple majority).
Only registered shareholders as of the record date may vote; beneficial owners must arrange for their registered holder to vote on their behalf.
Advance notice and disclosure requirements apply for shareholder proposals and director nominations at meetings.
