(c) 265,847, the number of shares of common stock to which stock appreciation rights were issued, plus (d) 129,300, the number of shares of common stock that were subject to restricted stock unit awards, plus (e) 95,430 phantom shares

This Amendment No. 3 to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (this
Amendment
) is filed by (i) Minerals Technologies Inc., a Delaware corporation (

Schedule
TO
) and relates to the offer by Purchaser to purchase all outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (each a
Share
), of AMCOL International Corporation, a Delaware corporation (
AMCOL
or the
Company
), at a price of $45.75 per Share, net to the seller in cash, without interest, less any required withholding taxes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated
March 21, 2014 (as it may be amended or supplemented, the
Offer to Purchase
) and in the related Letter of Transmittal (as it may be amended or supplemented, the
Letter of Transmittal
and, together with the
Offer to Purchase, the

), copies of which are attached to the Schedule TO as Exhibits (a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(B), respectively.
Capitalized terms used and not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Offer to Purchase.
Items 1 through 9 and Item 11.
The
Offer to Purchase, 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:
On April 18, 2014, Purchaser extended the Offer in accordance with the Merger Agreement until 9:00 A.M., New York City time, on
May 2, 2014, unless further extended or terminated. The Offer was extended because the Regulatory Condition to the Offer was not satisfied by the previously scheduled expiration date of the Offer.
The Depositary advised that as of midnight, New York City time, at the end of the day on April 17, 2014, approximately
23,673,893 Shares had been validly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer, representing approximately 72.6 percent of the currently issued and outstanding Shares. In addition, as of such time, Notices of Guaranteed
Delivery had been delivered for 111,886 Shares, representing approximately 0.3 percent of the currently issued and outstanding Shares.
The
press release announcing the extension of the Offer, issued by Minerals Technologies Inc. on April 18, 2014, is attached as Exhibit (a)(5)(D) hereto, and is incorporated herein by reference.
Adding the following text to the end of the third paragraph of the section entitled AntitrustOther Jurisdictions in
Section 16 (Certain Legal Matters; Regulatory Approvals) of the Offer to Purchase:
On April 11, 2014, the
parties obtained clearance from the FCO with respect to the acquisition. Accordingly, the condition of the Offer relating to any applicable waiting period (or any extension thereof) having been terminated or having expired or any required approval
of the Transactions by any Governmental Authority having been obtained pursuant to any Foreign Antitrust Laws in Germany has been satisfied.
