Exhibit 7.02
Voting Agreement
This Agreement is entered into as of July 6, 2007 by Stericycle, Inc., a
Delaware corporation ("Parent"), TMW Acquisition Corporation, a Texas
corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent ("MergerSub"), and the holders
of common stock of MedSolutions, Inc., a Texas corporation (the "Company"),
signatory hereto (each, a "Shareholder," and collectively, the "Shareholders").
Background:
A. Each Shareholder is a significant shareholder of the Company. The number
of shares of the Company's common stock, par value $.001 per share ("Company
Common Stock"), that each Shareholder owns (the Shareholder's "Shares"), and the
percentage that the Shareholder's Shares represent of the Company's issued and
outstanding shares of Company Common Stock as of July 6, 2007, are shown
opposite the Shareholder's name on the attached Exhibit A.
B. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Parent, MergerSub and
the Company have entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated July 6,
2007 (the "Merger Agreement"), pursuant to which Parent will acquire all of the
Company's outstanding capital stock for cash and promissory notes through a
reverse subsidiary merger of MergerSub with and into the Company (the "Merger").
C. The Company's board of directors, on the basis of the unanimous
recommendation of its Special Committee, has unanimously resolved to recommend
that Company's shareholders approve the Merger Agreement and the consummation of
the Merger.
D. Parent and MergerSub would not have entered into the Merger Agreement
without the voting and other assurances provided by the Shareholders in this
Agreement.
E. Each Shareholder will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits
from the consummation of the Merger, pursuant to which each share of Company
Common Stock will be converted into the right to receive the Merger
Consideration.
Now, therefore, in consideration of their mutual promises, and intending to
be legally bound, the parties agree as follows:
