Executive summary
The document details a proposed merger where Netflix will acquire the streaming and studios business of the registrant, following a complex internal reorganization and the spin-off of the global linear networks segment into a new, publicly traded company (Discovery Global).
Shareholders will receive $27.75 per share in cash for each share of new common stock, plus shares in Discovery Global, with the cash amount subject to adjustment based on final debt allocation.
The board unanimously recommends approval of the merger, the conversion of the old entity into an LLC, and an advisory vote on executive compensation related to the merger.
The merger is contingent on shareholder approval, regulatory clearances, and completion of the separation transaction; failure to approve the merger or conversion proposals will prevent the transaction from closing.
The board considered multiple bids and determined the Netflix offer provided the highest value and certainty, compared to alternatives such as the PSKY tender offer.
Voting matters and shareholder proposals
Shareholders are asked to vote on: (1) the merger agreement, (2) the conversion of the old corporation into an LLC, and (3) an advisory (non-binding) say-on-pay vote regarding executive compensation tied to the merger.
Approval of the merger and conversion proposals requires a majority of outstanding shares; the say-on-pay vote requires a majority of shares present or represented at the meeting.
The board recommends voting FOR all proposals.
Board of directors and corporate governance
The board conducted a thorough review of strategic alternatives, including multiple bids, and oversaw a competitive process.
The board will be reconstituted following the merger, with directors and officers indemnified for six years post-closing.
The board established a transaction committee to oversee negotiations and responses to competing offers.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
