This Amendment No. 2 (the "Amendment") amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on July 12, 2001, as previously amended, (the "Schedule TO") by Jewel Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Purchaser"), a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Yahoo! Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Yahoo!"). The Schedule TO relates to the offer by Purchaser to purchase all outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Shares"), of Launch Media, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), at a purchase price of $0.92 per Share, net to the seller in cash, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated July 12, 2001 and the related Letter of Transmittal (which, together with the Offer to Purchase and any amendments or supplements hereto and thereto, collectively constitute the "Offer"). Pursuant to General Instruction H to Schedule TO, this Final Amendment satisfies the reporting requirements of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, with respect to all securities acquired by Purchaser in the Offer. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Offer to Purchase or in the Schedule TO.
Item 8. Interest in Securities of the Subject Company
Item 8 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented to include the following information:
"At 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Wednesday, August 8, 2001, the Offer expired. Based on a preliminary count, approximately 12,543,266 Shares were validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Offer, of which 2,246,238 were tendered pursuant to notices of guaranteed delivery. Such Shares constituted approximately 92.5% of the outstanding Shares. Effective as of 12:01 a.m. on August 9, 2001, all Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn prior to the expiration of the Offer were accepted for payment. Upon the acceptance for payment of all validly tendered Shares (including Shares tendered pursuant to notices of guaranteed delivery), Parent and Purchaser will own a sufficient number of Shares to effect the Merger under Delaware General Corporation Law without a vote or meeting of the Company's stockholders. Pursuant to the Merger, Shares that were not tendered into the Offer (other than Shares held in the treasury of the Company or Shares owned by Purchaser, Parent or any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent or of the Company immediately prior to the Merger, which Shares will be canceled without any conversion thereof and no payments or distributions will be made with respect thereto) will be canceled and converted into the right to receive $0.92 per Share in cash (subject to applicable withholding taxes), without interest, subject to the rights of holders of non-tendered Shares to seek appraisal of the fair market value thereof pursuant to Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. Following the Merger, the Company will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. A copy of the press release announcing the expiration of the Offer and the acceptance of validly tendered Shares is attached hereto as Exhibit (a)(5)(B)."
