*

Estimated solely for the purpose of calculating the filing fee pursuant to Rule 0-11 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Calculated by adding (i) 76,000,791 shares of common stock of Diplomat Pharmacy, Inc. (“Diplomat”) (including 186,969 shares issued as Diplomat restricted stock awards), multiplied by $4.00, the per share tender offer price, and (ii) 1,028,015 shares of common stock of Diplomat subject to outstanding Diplomat restricted stock units (assuming performance levels were achieved at 100%), multiplied by $4.00, the per share tender offer price, in each case as of January 6, 2020. The calculation of the filing fee is based on information provided by Diplomat as of January 6, 2020.

The amount of the filing fee, calculated in accordance with Rule 0-11 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, equals 0.0001298 multiplied by the estimated transaction valuation.

This Amendment No. 1 amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 9, 2020 (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Schedule TO”) by (i) Denali Merger Sub, Inc., a Michigan corporation (“Purchaser”) and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of UnitedHealth Group Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (“UnitedHealth Group”), and (ii) UnitedHealth Group. The Schedule TO relates to the offer by Purchaser to purchase all outstanding shares of common stock, no par value (the “Shares”), of Diplomat Pharmacy, Inc., a Michigan corporation (“Diplomat”), at a price of $4.00 per Share, net to the seller in cash, without interest and subject to any required tax withholding, on the terms and subject to the conditions described in the Offer to Purchase, dated January 9, 2020 (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Offer to Purchase”), and the accompanying Letter of Transmittal (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Letter of Transmittal,” and, together with the Offer to Purchase and other related materials, the “Offer”), copies of which are attached to the Schedule TO as Exhibits (a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(B), respectively.

Except as otherwise set forth in this Amendment No. 1, 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 No. 1. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Offer to Purchase. This Amendment No. 1 should be read together with the Schedule TO.

Item 11. Additional Information

The Offer to Purchase and Item 11 of the Schedule TO, to the extent Item 11 incorporates by reference the information contained in the Offer to Purchase, are hereby amended and supplemented to include the following sub-heading and paragraph at the end of Section 15 “Certain Legal Matters; Regulatory Approvals” of the Offer to Purchase:

Certain Litigation. On January 15, 2020, putative Diplomat stockholder Stephen Bushansky filed a lawsuit concerning the Transactions against Diplomat and its directors in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan. The lawsuit is captioned Bushansky v. Diplomat Pharmacy, Inc., et al., Case No. 20-CV-10107-PDB-DRG. On January 16, 2020, putative Diplomat stockholder Richard Scarantino filed a purported class action lawsuit concerning the Transactions against Diplomat, its directors, UnitedHealth Group, and Purchaser in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware. The lawsuit is captioned Scarantino v. Diplomat Pharmacy, Inc., et al., Case No. 20-CV-00066-UNA. Also on January 16, 2020, putative stockholder David A. Prentice filed a purported class action lawsuit concerning the Transactions against Diplomat, its directors, UnitedHealth Group, and Purchaser in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware. The lawsuit is captioned Prentice v. Diplomat Pharmacy, Inc., et al., Case No. 20-CV-00068-UNA. On January 17, 2020, putative stockholder Robert Campbell filed a lawsuit concerning the Transactions against Diplomat and its directors in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. The lawsuit is captioned Campbell v. Diplomat Pharmacy, Inc., et al., Case No. 20-CV-00474.

All four lawsuits allege that Diplomat’s Schedule 14D-9 omits certain information with respect to the financial data and inputs underlying Foros Securities LLC’s opinion, and various details in the section of the Schedule 14D-9 entitled “—Background of the Transactions”. Plaintiffs assert claims under the federal securities laws and seek, among other things, to enjoin the Transactions or, in the alternative, rescission (or rescissory damages) if the Transactions close. We believe that plaintiffs’ allegations lack merit and intend to contest them vigorously. If additional, similar complaints are filed concerning the Transactions, absent new or different allegations that are material, we will not necessarily announce such additional filings.
