This Amendment No. 5 amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed by CBS Corporation (CBS), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on October 19, 2017 (as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed by CBS with the SEC on November 1, 2017, Amendment No. 2 filed by CBS with the SEC on November 6, 2017, Amendment No. 3 filed by CBS with the SEC on November 9, 2017 and Amendment No. 4 filed by CBS with the SEC on November 15, 2017, the Schedule TO).
The Schedule TO relates to the offer by CBS to exchange all shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the Radio Common Stock), of its wholly owned subsidiary, CBS Radio Inc. (CBS Radio), a Delaware corporation, for shares of CBS Class B common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the CBS Class B Common Stock), that are validly tendered and not properly withdrawn prior to the expiration of the Exchange Offer (as defined below). As promptly as practicable following completion of the Exchange Offer and, if the Exchange Offer is consummated but is not fully subscribed, or in the event the Exchange Offer is consummated but not all of the shares of Radio Common Stock owned by CBS are exchanged due to the upper limit being in effect, a subsequent pro rata dividend of all remaining shares of Radio Common Stock to holders of CBS Class B Common Stock and CBS Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the CBS Class A Common Stock and, together with the CBS Class B Common Stock, the CBS Common Stock), whose shares of CBS Common Stock remain outstanding after consummation of the Exchange Offer (the spin-off), Constitution Merger Sub Corp. (Merger Sub), a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Entercom Communications Corp. (Entercom), will merge with and into CBS Radio, with CBS Radio surviving the merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Entercom (the Merger). Pursuant to the Merger, each share of Radio Common Stock will automatically convert into the right to receive one share of Entercom class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the Entercom Class A Common Stock), on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Prospectus, dated October 19, 2017 (the Prospectus), the Letter of Transmittal and the instructions to the Letter of Transmittal, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibit (a)(1)(i) (which, together with any amendments or supplements thereto, collectively constitute the Exchange Offer).
In connection with the Exchange Offer, CBS Radio has filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), a registration statement on Form S-4 and Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-217279) (as amended, the Registration Statement) to register the shares of Radio Common Stock offered in exchange for shares of CBS Class B Common Stock tendered in the Exchange Offer and to be distributed in any pro rata dividend in the spin-off. Entercom has also filed under the Securities Act a registration statement on Form S-4 (Registration No. 333-217273) to register the shares of Entercom Class A Common Stock into which shares of Radio Common Stock will be converted in the Merger. The information set forth in the Prospectus and the Letter of Transmittal and the instructions to the Letter of Transmittal therein are incorporated herein by reference in response to all the items of this Schedule TO, except as otherwise set forth below.
This Amendment No. 5 shall be read together with the Schedule TO. Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 5 does not modify any of the information previously reported on the Schedule TO.
Item 4. | Terms of the Transaction |
Item 4(a) of the Schedule TO, which incorporates by reference the information contained in the Exchange Offer, is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following thereto:
(a) Material Terms.
The Exchange Offer expired at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on November 16, 2017. Under the terms of the Exchange Offer, 5.6796 shares of Radio Common Stock will be exchanged for each share of CBS Class B Common Stock accepted in the Exchange Offer.
According to the exchange agent for the Exchange Offer, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., 165,743,402 shares of CBS Class B Common Stock were tendered prior to the expiration of the Exchange Offer, including 64,125,859 shares of CBS Class B Common Stock validly tendered and not validly withdrawn and 101,617,543 shares of CBS Class B Common Stock that were tendered by notice of guaranteed delivery. CBS has accepted 17,854,689 of the tendered shares in exchange for 101,407,494 shares of CBS Radio Common Stock owned by CBS. Because the Exchange Offer was oversubscribed, CBS accepted tendered shares of CBS Class B common stock on a pro rata basis in proportion to the total number of shares tendered and not validly withdrawn. Shareholders who owned fewer than 100 shares of CBS Class B common stock, or an odd lot, and who validly tendered all of their shares, will not be subject to proration in accordance with the terms of the Exchange Offer.
2
Based on the total number of shares of CBS Class B Common Stock reported to be tendered prior to the expiration of the exchange offer, it is estimated that approximately 10.12% of the tendered shares of CBS Class B Common Stock that are subject to proration will be exchanged, assuming all shares tendered by guaranteed delivery procedures are delivered under the terms of the exchange offer. This preliminary proration factor is subject to change based on the number of tendered shares that satisfy the guaranteed delivery procedures.
CBS expects to announce the final proration factor as soon as possible following the expiration of the guaranteed delivery period, which will occur on November 20, 2017. Promptly after the final proration factor is announced, shares of CBS Class B common stock tendered but not accepted for exchange will be returned to the tendering shareholders in book-entry form. Also at that time, the exchange agent for the Exchange Offer will deliver to Entercoms transfer agent a final shareholder list for CBS Radio common stock received by tendering holders of CBS Class B Common Stock whose shares were accepted for exchange in the Exchange Offer. Entercoms transfer agent will use the final shareholder list to credit such shareholders with an equal number of whole shares of Entercom Class A Common Stock. Fractional shares of Entercom Class A Common Stock due to tendering CBS Class B Common Stock shareholders will be aggregated and sold in the open market by Entercoms transfer agent. Checks in lieu of fractional shares will thereafter be delivered to such tendering holders of CBS Class B Common Stock by Entercoms transfer agent.
Immediately following the consummation of the Exchange Offer, the Merger closed effective as of 12:01 a.m., New York City time, on November 17, 2017. In the Merger, each whole share of CBS Radio Common Stock outstanding immediately following the Exchange Offer was converted into one share of Entercom Class A Common Stock (with shareholders entitled to cash in lieu of fractional shares).
On November 17, 2017, CBS issued a press release announcing the consummation and preliminary results of the Exchange Offer, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit (a)(1)(xxvi) hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
On November 17, 2017, CBS issued a press release announcing the consummation of the Merger, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit (a)(5)(xxvii) hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
