This Amendment No. 6 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 of Actuate Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), initially filed on December 16, 2014, and amended on December 18, 2014December 22, 2014January 2, 2015January 9, 2015 and January 9, 2015 (as amended, the “Initial Schedule 14D-9”). The Initial Schedule 14D-9 and this Amendment relate to the tender offer by Asteroid Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Purchaser”) and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Open Text Corporation, a Canadian corporation (“Parent” or “OpenText”), to purchase all Shares (as defined in the Initial Schedule 14D-9 in Item 1 under the heading “Class of Securities”) that are issued and outstanding, at a price of $6.60 per Share net to the seller in cash (the “Offer Price”), without interest thereon and subject to any required withholding taxes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated December 16, 2014 (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Offer to Purchase”), and the related Letter of Transmittal (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Letter of Transmittal” and, together with the Offer to Purchase, the “Offer”), which were filed with the Initial Schedule 14D-9 and are incorporated by reference as Exhibits (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) thereto, and are incorporated by reference herein. Except as otherwise set forth below, the information set forth in the Initial Schedule 14D-9 remains unchanged and is incorporated by reference as relevant to the items in this Amendment. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Initial Schedule 14D-9.

 

Item 8. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Item 8 of the Initial Schedule 14D-9 is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following section after the last paragraph under the subheading “Litigation”:

Consummation of the Offer and the Merger

The Offer expired at 9:00 A.M., New York City time, on Friday, January 16, 2015. Computershare Trust Company, N.A., the depositary for the Offer, indicated that a total of 39,385,288 Shares (excluding Shares tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures but not yet delivered and Shares that were owned as of the date of the commencement of the Offer by the Company, Parent or any direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company or Parent) were validly tendered in accordance with the terms of the Offer and not withdrawn on or prior to the Expiration Time. The validly tendered Shares represent approximately 86.6% of the Shares outstanding as of the Expiration Time. In addition, notices of guaranteed delivery have been delivered with respect to 945,157 Shares. The number of Shares tendered into the Offer satisfied the Minimum Tender Condition (as defined in the Merger Agreement) as of the expiration of the Offer. All conditions to the Offer have been satisfied. Purchaser has accepted for payment all Shares that were validly tendered and not withdrawn, in accordance with the terms of the Offer.

On January 16, 2015, following the expiration of the Offer and acceptance for payment of the Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer, Parent completed its acquisition of the Company pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, Purchaser merged with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, pursuant to the procedure provided for under DGCL Section 251(h), without any stockholder approvals. As a result of the Merger, each Share outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was automatically canceled and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration (as defined in the Merger Agreement), without interest thereon and subject to any required withholding taxes (which is the same amount per Share that will be paid in the Offer), other than Shares held (i) by Parent or Purchaser or any wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent or the Company, which Shares were canceled and ceased to exist without payment being made with respect to such Shares, or (ii) by stockholders of the Company who are entitled to and who validly exercise appraisal rights under DGCL Section 262 with respect to such Shares.

Shares ceased trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market prior to market open on January 16, 2015.

On January 16, 2015, Parent issued a press release announcing the expiration and results of the Offer and the Merger.
