This Amendment No. 7 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed by Valeant Pharmaceuticals International, Inc., a Canadian corporation (“Valeant”), Valeant Pharmaceuticals International, a Delaware corporation (“VPI”) and Blue Subsidiary Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of VPI (the “Purchaser”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 16, 2015 (as amended from time to time, the “Schedule TO”), and relates to the offer by the Purchaser to purchase all outstanding Shares, at a price of $6.50 per Share, net to the holder in cash (less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest), plus one contractual contingent value right per Share, which represents the right to receive up to two contingent payments, if any, of up to $1.00 in the aggregate net to the holder in cash (less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest) upon the achievement of certain specified milestones within an agreed upon time period, at the times and upon the terms and subject to the conditions described in the Offer to Purchase dated September 16, 2015 (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Offer to Purchase”) and in the related Letter of Transmittal (together with any amendments or supplements thereto and with the Offer to Purchase, the “Offer”), which are filed with the Schedule TO as Exhibits (a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(B), respectively.
Capitalized terms used, but not otherwise defined, in this Amendment shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule TO. Except to the extent specifically provided in this Amendment, the information set forth in the Schedule TO remains unchanged and is incorporated herein by reference as relevant to the items in this Amendment.
ITEMS 1 through 9 and 11.
Items 1 through 9 and Item 11 of the Schedule TO are hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
“At 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on Wednesday, October 14, 2015 (the “Expiration Time”), the Offer expired as scheduled and was not extended. American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, the depositary for the Offer (the “Depositary”) has advised VPI and the Purchaser that, as of the Expiration Time, a total of 18,271,479 Shares (excluding Shares with respect to which Notices of Guaranteed Delivery were delivered but the Shares represented thereby were not yet delivered) had been validly tendered into and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer, representing approximately 72.1% of the outstanding Shares as of the Expiration Time. Additionally, the Depositary has advised VPI and the Purchaser that Notices of Guaranteed Delivery have been delivered with respect to an additional 2,978,556 Shares, representing approximately 11.8% of the outstanding Shares as of the Expiration Time.
The number of Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Offer satisfied the Minimum Tender Condition (as defined in the Offer to Purchase). All conditions to the Offer having been satisfied or waived, the Purchaser irrevocably accepted for payment, and expects to promptly pay for, all Shares validly tendered into and not properly withdrawn from the Offer.
Following the purchase of Shares in the Offer, the Purchaser has sufficient voting power to approve the Merger (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) without the affirmative vote of the stockholders of Synergetics in accordance with Section 251(h) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”). Accordingly, and subject to the satisfaction of the remaining conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement (as defined in the Offer to Purchase), the Purchaser and VPI intend to complete the acquisition of Synergetics by consummating the Merger today in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement and without a vote by the stockholders of Synergetics in accordance with Section 251(h) of the DGCL. No other action by the stockholders of Synergetics will be required pursuant to Delaware law or otherwise. As a result of the Merger, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than (i) any Shares held in the treasury of Synergetics and each Share owned by the Purchaser, VPI or any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of VPI or by Synergetics immediately prior to the Effective Time, which will be canceled without any conversion thereof and no payment or distribution will be made with respect thereto, and (ii) any Shares owned by Synergetics’ stockholders who perfect their appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL) will be canceled and will be converted automatically into the right to receive the Offer Price (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) payable, without interest, to the holder of such Share, upon surrender of the certificate that formerly evidenced such Share or, with respect to uncertificated Shares, upon the receipt by the Depositary of an Agent’s Message related to such Shares. All Shares that are converted into the right to receive the Offer Price will be canceled and cease to exist. Following consummation of the Merger, all Shares will be delisted and will cease to trade on the NASDAQ Capital Market. VPI and the Purchaser intend to take steps to cause the termination of the registration of the Shares under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and to suspend all of Synergetics’ reporting obligations under the Exchange Act as promptly as practicable.
