The purpose of this amendment to the Form 8-K is to replace the version of the First Amendment to the Asset Purchase Agreement previously filed as Exhibit 2.1 (the “First Amendment to the Asset Purchase Agreement”) to the Form 8-K with the version attached to this Form 8-K/A as Exhibit 2.1, which corrects a typographical error in the previously filed version.

Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings assigned to them in the First Amendment to the Asset Purchase Agreement.

 

Additional Information and Where to Find It

In connection with the proposed acquisition, the Company will prepare a proxy statement to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). When completed, a definitive proxy statement and a form of proxy will be mailed to the stockholders of the Company. The Company's security holders are urged to read the proxy statement carefully when it becomes available, as well as any other relevant documents filed by the Company with SEC, because they will contain important information. The Company's stockholders will be able to obtain, without charge, a copy of the proxy statement (when available) and other relevant documents filed with the SEC from the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov. The Company's stockholders will also be able to obtain, without charge, a copy of the proxy statement and other relevant documents (when available) by directing a request by mail or telephone to BioScrip, Inc., Attn: Chief Financial Officer, 1600 Broadway, Suite 950, Denver, CO 80202, telephone: (720) 697-5200, or from the investor relations page on the Company's website at http://bioscrip.com/overview.

 

The Company and its directors and officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from the Company's stockholders in connection with the proposed acquisition. Information about the Company's directors and executive officers and their ownership of the Company's equity interests is set forth in the proxy statement for the Company's 2016 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, which was filed with the SEC on April 27, 2016. Stockholders may obtain additional information regarding the interests of the Company and its directors and executive officers in the proposed acquisition, which may be different than those of the Company's stockholders generally, by reading the proxy statement and other relevant documents regarding the proposed acquisition when filed with the SEC.
