The Schedule TO relates to the offer by Purchaser to purchase up to 34,144,400 shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of SunPower Corporation, a Delaware corporation (SunPower), together with the associated preferred stock purchase rights issued in connection with and subject to the Rights Agreement (the Rights Agreement), dated as of August 12, 2008, by and between SunPower and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as amended (the Class A Shares), and up to 25,220,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of SunPower, together with the associated preferred stock purchase rights issued in connection with and subject to the Rights Agreement (the Class B Shares and together with the Class A Shares, the Shares), for $23.25 per Share, net to the holder thereof in cash (the Offer Price), without interest and less applicable withholding taxes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated May 3, 2011 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the Offer to Purchase) and the related Letter of Transmittal (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the Letter of Transmittal), copies of which are attached as Exhibits (a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(B) to the Schedule TO, respectively (which collectively constitute the Offer).
The information set forth in the Offer to Purchase is hereby incorporated by reference in answer to Items 1 through 11 of the Schedule TO and is amended, supplemented and modified by the information specifically provided in this Amendment. All capitalized terms used in this Amendment but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Offer to Purchase.
The items of the Schedule TO set forth below are hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
Item 11. | Additional Information. |
At 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Tuesday, June 14, 2011, the Offer expired. Purchaser has accepted for payment 30,220,701 Class A Shares and 25,220,000 Class B Shares at a purchase price of $23.25 per share for a total cost of approximately $1.3 billion.
Pursuant to the terms of the Offer, the tender with respect to the Class B Shares is subject to proration, as more than 60% of the Class B Shares were tendered. The tender with respect to the Class A Shares will be subject to proration only if the actual number of Class A Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn after the expiration of the guaranteed delivery period exceeds 60 percent of the Class A Shares at the close of business on June 13, 2011. If the actual number of Class A Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn after the expiration of the guaranteed delivery period exceeds 34,144,400, then Purchaser intends to accept for payment that number of Class A Shares that represents approximately 60% of the Class A Shares outstanding at the close of business on June 13, 2011. Purchaser intends to return all Shares not accepted for payment to the stockholder that tendered such Shares, or, in the case of tendered Shares delivered by book-entry transfer, credit such Shares to the account at the book-entry transfer facility from which the transfer had previously been made, promptly after the expiration of the Offer.
