All the information contained in the Offer to Purchase, including Schedule I thereto, and in the Letter of Transmittal, is hereby expressly incorporated in the Schedule TO by reference in response to Items 1 through 9 and Item 11 of the Schedule TO, and is supplemented by the information specifically provided in this Amendment.

Except as otherwise set forth in this Amendment, the information set forth in the Schedule TO remains unchanged and is incorporated herein by reference to the extent relevant to the items in this Amendment. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule TO.

Items 1 through 9 and Item 11.

The Offer to Purchase and Items 1 through 9 and Item 11 of the Schedule TO, to the extent such Items incorporate by reference the information contained in the Offer to Purchase, are hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

  1.

Summary Term Sheet — The information under the question “What are the most significant conditions to the Offer?” is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following new paragraph at the end of the response to such question:

“The HSR Condition has been satisfied by the expiration of the waiting period under the HSR Act with respect to the Offer effective May 11, 2022 at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time. The Offer continues to be subject to the remaining conditions set forth in this Offer to Purchase.”

 

  2.

Introduction — the second-to-last paragraph of the “Introduction” is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following sentences at the end of such paragraph:

“The HSR Condition has been satisfied by the expiration of the waiting period under the HSR Act with respect to the Offer effective May 11, 2022 at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time. The Offer continues to be subject to the remaining conditions set forth in this Offer to Purchase.”

 

  3.

“On May 11, 2022 at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, the waiting period under the HSR Act with respect to the Offer expired. The Offer continues to be subject to the remaining conditions set forth in this Offer to Purchase.”


  5.

Section 16 — “Certain Legal Matters; Regulatory Approvals” is hereby amended and supplemented by deleting the second sentence of the fourth paragraph of the subsection titled “U.S. Antitrust Compliance” in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

“Nevertheless, and even though the requisite waiting period under the HSR Act has expired, neither Parent nor the Company can be certain that a challenge to the Offer or the Merger on antitrust grounds will not be made, or, if such challenge is made, what the result will be. If the FTC believes that the Offer may substantially lessen competition in any line of commerce in violation of the U.S. federal antitrust laws, the FTC has the authority to challenge the transaction by seeking a federal court order enjoining the transaction or, if Shares have already been acquired, requiring disposition of such Shares, or the divestiture of assets of Parent, the Company or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. The Antitrust Division, U.S. state attorneys general and private persons may also bring legal action under the U.S. federal and state antitrust laws.”
