CALCULATION OF FILING FEE

 

Transaction Valuation*   Amount of Filing Fee**
$112,605,154   $13,648
 
*

Calculated solely for purposes of determining the filing fee. The transaction value was calculated by adding (a) 17,029,528 shares of issued and outstanding common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Shares”), of Papa Murphy’s Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Papa Murphy’s”), multiplied by the offer price of $6.45 per Share, (b) 938,918 Shares issuable pursuant to outstanding options to acquire Shares from Papa Murphy’s with an exercise price less than the offer price of $6.45 per share, multiplied by $1.43, which is the offer price of $6.45 per Share less the weighted- average exercise price for such options of $5.02 per Share, and (c) 219,980 Shares issuable pursuant to outstanding time-based and performance- based restricted stock units multiplied by the offer price of $6.45 per Share. The calculation of the filing fee is based on information provided by Papa Murphy’s as of April 22, 2019.

**

The filing fee was calculated in accordance with Rule 0-11 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Fee Rate Advisory No. 1 for fiscal year 2019, issued August 24, 2018, by multiplying the transaction value by 0.0001212.

This Amendment No. 3 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (as amended and together with any subsequent amendments and supplements thereto, the “Schedule TO”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 25, 2019, by MTY Columbia Merger Sub, Inc. (“Purchaser”), a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of MTY Franchising USA, Inc. (“MTY”), a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of MTY Food Group Inc. (“Parent”). The Schedule TO relates to the tender offer by Purchaser for any and all of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Shares”), of Papa Murphy’s Holdings, Inc. (“Papa Murphy’s”), at a price of $6.45 per Share, without interest, net to the seller in cash, and subject to any required withholding of taxes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated April 25, 2019, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit (a)(1)(A), and in the related letter of transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal”, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit (a)(1)(B), and which, together with the Offer to Purchase and other related materials, as each may be amended or supplemented from time to time, constitutes the “Offer”).

The information set forth in the Offer to Purchase, including Schedule I thereto, is incorporated by reference to the extent stated herein in response to Items 1 through 9 and Items 11 and 12 of the Schedule TO, and is supplemented by the information specifically provided in this Amendment.

Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Offer to Purchase or 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 set forth below:

“The Offer and withdrawal rights expired as scheduled one minute following 11:59 p.m. (12:00 midnight), Eastern Time, on Wednesday, May 22, 2019. The Depositary has indicated that, as of the Expiration Time, a total of 15,201,906 Shares (excluding Shares with respect to which notices of guaranteed delivery were delivered but which Shares were not yet delivered) have been validly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer, representing approximately 89.2% of the outstanding Shares as of the Expiration Time. In addition, Notices of Guaranteed Delivery have been delivered with respect to 159,903 Shares, representing approximately 0.9% of the outstanding Shares. The number of Shares validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer satisfies the Minimum Condition. All conditions to the Offer having been satisfied or waived, Purchaser has accepted for payment and will promptly pay for all such Shares in accordance with the Offer.

As a result of its acceptance of the Shares tendered in the Offer, Purchaser acquired a sufficient number of Shares to complete the Merger without a vote of the stockholders of the company pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL. Accordingly, Papa Murphy’s and Purchaser expect to consummate the Merger on May 23, 2019 pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, in the Merger, each Share that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares held in the treasury of Papa Murphy’s and any shares owned by Purchaser or irrevocably accepted for purchase by Purchaser in the Offer and shares held by any Papa Murphy’s stockholder who has validly exercised its appraisal rights under the DGCL) will be converted automatically into the right to receive $6.45 in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes (which is the same amount per Share paid in the Offer). Following the Merger, all Shares will be delisted from NASDAQ and deregistered under the Exchange Act.

On May 23, 2019, MTY and Papa Murphy’s issued a press release relating to the expiration and results of the Offer. The full text of the press release is attached as Exhibit (a)(5)(B) hereto.”
