This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 24, 2018 (together with any amendments and supplements thereto, the “Schedule TO”) by Accipiter Corp. (“Purchaser”), a Delaware corporation, and Stryker Corporation (“Stryker”), a Michigan corporation. The Schedule TO relates to the tender offer by Purchaser, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Stryker, and Stryker, for all of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Invuity, Inc. (“Invuity”), a Delaware corporation, at a price of $7.40 per share, paid to the seller in cash, without interest, subject to any required withholding of taxes, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated September 24, 2018 (the “Offer to Purchase”), a copy of which is attached as Exhibit (a)(1)(A) to the Schedule TO, and in the related Letter of Transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal”), a copy of which is attached as Exhibit (a)(1)(B) to the Schedule TO, which, as each may be amended or supplemented from time to time, collectively constitute the “Offer.” This Amendment is being filed on behalf of Stryker and Purchaser.
The information set forth in the Offer to Purchase, including Annex I thereto, and the related Letter of Transmittal is incorporated by reference herein in response to Items 1 through 9 and Item 11 of the Schedule TO. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Offer to Purchase.
Items 1 through 9; Item 11.
The information set forth in the Offer to Purchase under “The Tender Offer—Section 15—Legal Matters” and Items 1 through 9 and Item 11 of the Schedule TO, to the extent such Items incorporate by reference the information contained in the Offer to Purchase, are hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following paragraph at the end of such section of the Offer to Purchase:
“Securityholder Litigation. Invuity is aware of three class action lawsuits filed in connection with the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. The first complaint, captioned Hercules Hurtado v. Invuity, Inc., et al., Case No.3:18-cv-05920, was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California on September 26, 2018. The second complaint, captioned Adam Franchi v. Invuity, Inc., et al. (the “Franchi Complaint”), was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware on September 28, 2018. These complaints allege claims under Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act, generally challenging the adequacy of the disclosures in Invuity’s Schedule14D-9. Both cases also involve “control-person” claims against Invuity’s directors, and the Franchi Complaint involves “control-person” claims against Stryker.
The third complaint, captioned Connor Kilp v. Invuity, Inc., et al., Case No.CGC-18-570154, was filed in the San Francisco County Superior Court of California on September 27, 2018. Plaintiffs in that case allege that the members of Invuity’s board of directors breached their fiduciary duties by approving of and entering into the Merger Agreement and that the Offer Price was inadequate. The plaintiffs further allege that the members of Invuity’s board of directors breached their fiduciary duties by making inadequate disclosures in connection with the transaction.
All of the complaints seek, among other things, to enjoin the proposed transaction, rescission of the proposed transaction should it be completed, and damages.”
