Item 1. Security and Issuer.
This Amendment is being jointly filed by the undersigned to amend the Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons (as defined below in Item 2) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 16, 2010 (the “ Schedule 13D”), and is being filed by the Reporting Persons with respect to the shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), of Patient Safety Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). The principal executive offices of the Company are located at 15440 Laguna Canyon Road, Suite 150, Irvine, California 92618. This Amendment supplements or amends the Schedule 13D as set forth herein.
Item 2. Identity and Background.
Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to include the following:
This statement is being jointly filed by Francis Capital Management, LLC, a California limited liability company, John P. Francis, a U.S. citizen, Catalysis Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and Catalysis Offshore Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted company (together, the “Reporting Persons”).
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
No change is made to Item 3 of Schedule 13D.
Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction.
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended to add the following paragraphs:
This Schedule 13D is being filed by the Reporting Persons to disclose John P. Francis’ execution of a certain voting agreement between Stryker Corporation (“Stryker”) and John P. Francis, dated December 31, 2013, entered into in connection with that certain agreement and plan of merger among Stryker Corporation, a Michigan Corporation, PS Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware Corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Stryker (“Merger Sub”), and the Company, dated December 31, 2013 (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company with the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub thereupon ceasing and with the Company being the surviving corporation of the merger and a wholly owned subsidiary of Stryker (the “Merger”). At the effective time of the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of capital stock of the Company (other than those shares held by the Company, Stryker, Merger Sub or a stockholder who properly demands appraisal of such common shares under Delaware law) will be converted into the right to receive $2.22 in cash without interest (in the case of Common Stock), $100.00 in cash (in the case of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock) and $296.00 in cash (in the case of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock). Each vested and exercisable option to acquire shares of Common Stock that is outstanding immediately prior to the Merger will be canceled and terminated in exchange for the right to receive a payment in cash equal to the product of (a) the total number of shares of Common Stock for which such option remains outstanding and unexercised prior to the effective time and (b) the excess (if any) of the Common Consideration (as defined in the Merger Agreement) over the exercise price of such option. All unvested options will become immediately vested and exercisable. Each of the Company, Purchaser and Stryker made customary representations, warranties and covenants in the Merger Agreement, including, among others, covenants by the Company to conduct its business in the ordinary course during the interim period between the execution of the Merger Agreement and the consummation of the Merger.
In connection with the Merger Agreement, John P. Francis entered into that certain voting agreement with Stryker, dated December 31, 2013 (the “Voting Agreement”). Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, among other things subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, John P. Francis agreed to vote all of the shares of Company stock of the Reporting Persons (i) in favor of the Merger Agreement or any amendment to the Merger Agreement which makes the Merger Agreement more favorable to the Reporting Persons, (ii) against any proposal in opposition to the Merger and (iii) against any competing proposals or transactions that would impede the Merger or result in a breach of the Merger Agreement. Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, John P. Francis also waived appraisal rights of the Reporting Persons and the Reporting Persons provided an irrevocable proxy. Additionally, the Voting Agreement and irrevocable proxy granted pursuant to the Voting Agreement terminate upon the earlier to occur of: (i) the date the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, (ii) the effective time of the Merger and (iii) the date the Company’s board of directors changes its recommendation that the Company’s stockholders adopt the Merger Agreement. The information disclosed in this paragraph is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Voting Agreement, which is attached hereto as an exhibit and is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
