This Amendment No. 5 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (the “Statement”) originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on May 3, 2005, as amended, by PS Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Purchaser”) and a wholly owned subsidiary of Nortel Networks Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and Parent, relating to the third-party tender offer to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of PEC Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), at a purchase price of $15.50 per Share, net to the seller in cash, without interest thereon, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated May 3, 2005 (the “Offer to Purchase”), and in the related Letter of Transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal”), copies of which are filed as Exhibit (a)(1)(A) and Exhibit (a)(1)(B) to the Statement, respectively (which, together with any amendments or supplements to the Offer to Purchase and the Letter of Transmittal, collectively constitute the “Offer”). Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Offer to Purchase.
This Amendment also amends and supplements and constitutes Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D filed by Nortel Networks Corporation, a Canadian corporation (“NNC”), Nortel Networks Limited, a Canadian corporation which is wholly owned by NNC and is the sole stockholder of Parent, Parent and Purchaser on May 5, 2005 with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the Shares.
Items 8 and 11.
Items 8 and 11 of the Schedule TO are hereby amended and supplemented to add the following:
“The initial offering period for the Offer expired at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Tuesday, May 31, 2005. Upon the expiration of the initial offering period, Purchaser accepted for payment all Shares validly tendered and not properly withdrawn prior to the expiration of the initial offering period. Purchaser was informed by the Depositary that approximately 26,693,725 Shares were validly tendered as of the expiration of the initial offering period (including approximately 505,653 Shares tendered by Notice of Guaranteed Delivery). This number of Shares represented approximately 96.6% of the issued and outstanding Shares of the Company.
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, any remaining publicly held Shares (other than Shares held by the Company, Parent or the Purchaser and Shares held by stockholders who properly perfect appraisal rights under Delaware law) will be acquired for $15.50 per Share, net to the seller in cash, in a subsequent second-step merger transaction upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the Merger under the Merger Agreement, including the approval of the Merger by holders of Shares if required by applicable law. As a result of the purchase of Shares by the Purchaser, it has sufficient voting power to approve the Merger without a meeting of stockholders and without the vote of any other holder of Shares.
On June 1, 2005, Nortel issued a press release announcing the purchase of Shares in the Offer. A copy of the press release is attached to this Amendment as Exhibit (a)(1)(H) and is incorporated herein by reference.”
Item 12. Exhibits.
Item 12 is hereby amended and supplemented to add the following exhibit:
“(a)(1)(H) Press Release issued by Nortel on June 1, 2005.”
