This Amendment No. 11 (this “Amendment”) to Schedule TO amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO originally filed by Eos Petro, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Eos”) and Eos Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a directly wholly owned subsidiary of Eos (“Purchaser”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 9, 2014 (as amended, the “Schedule TO”), relating to the offer by Purchaser to purchase each of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”), of Dune Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Dune”), for $0.30 in cash (the “Offer Price”), without interest and less any required withholding taxes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated October 9, 2014 (the “Offer to Purchase”) and the related Letter of Transmittal, copies of which are set forth as Exhibits (a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(B), respectively, to the original Schedule TO (the offer reflected by such terms and conditions, as they may be amended, supplement or extended from time to time, constitutes the “Offer”).
ITEMS 1 THROUGH 11.
All information contained in the Offer is expressly incorporated herein by reference with respect to Items 1-11 of the Schedule TO, except that such information is hereby amended and supplemented to the extent specifically provided herein. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Offer to Purchase.
Items 1 through 11 of the Schedule TO and the disclosure in the Offer to Purchase are hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
A. Adding the following paragraph in Items 1 and 4 of the Schedule TO:
On February 17, 2015, Purchaser extended the expiration of the Offer until February 20, 2015 at 12:00 midnight New York City time, to allow Purchaser and Dune additional time to negotiate potential revised terms of the Merger Agreement. The Offer was previously scheduled to expire on February 13, 2015 at midnight, New York City time. The Depositary has indicated that, as of the close of business on February 13, 2015 a total of approximately 72,082,394 shares or 98.73822% of the outstanding Shares had been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer, which is sufficient to satisfy the Minimum Tender Condition. The press release announcing the extension of the Offer is attached hereto as Exhibit (a)(5)(K).
B. Adding the following paragraph to Items 1, 4, 7, 9 and 11 of the Schedule TO:
PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT MATERIAL TERMS OF THE MERGER AGREEMENT AND OFFER SET FORTH IN THIS SCHEDULE T/O ARE LIKELY TO CHANGE PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION OF THE OFFER. As of February 17, 2015, the date of Amendment No. 11 to this Schedule TO, Dune and Eos are in the process of negotiating potential revised terms for the Merger Agreement upon which the merger and Offer could still be completed. Such revised terms may include, but are not limited to, revising the $0.30 per share price for the shares of Dune common stock tendered for purchase in the Offer. If the parties are able to agree on revised terms, the parties will announce such terms and, if there are fewer than ten business days left before the expiration of the Offer, extend the Offer so that Dune’s shareholders have a minimum of ten business days to consider such revised terms. However, there is no assurance that the parties will be able to agree on revised terms. If such terms are agreed upon, the parties do not expect the revised Offer Price for the Shares to be more than nominal.
C. All references to “12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Thursday, November 6, 2014,” “12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Thursday, November 20, 2014,” “12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Monday, December 22, 2014,” “12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Thursday, January 15, 2015,” “12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Friday, January 23, 2015” “12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Friday, January 30, 2015” “12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Friday, February 6, 2015””12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Friday, February 13, 2015” or any variations thereof, set forth in Exhibits (a)(1)(A) through (a)(1)(E) are hereby amended and replaced with “12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Friday, February 20, 2015.”
D. The following paragraphs are added at the end of Section 11 – “Background of the Offer; Past Contacts or Negotiations with Dune.” in the Offer to Purchase as new paragraphs:
On February 13, 2015, pursuant to an amendment to the Merger Agreement, the parties agreed to extend the Offer’s expiration date to February 20, 2015 to allow the parties additional time to negotiate revised terms.
As of February 17, 2015, Dune and Eos are in the process of negotiating potential revised terms for the Merger Agreement upon which the merger and Offer could still be completed. Such revised terms may include, but are not limited to, revising the $0.30 per share price for the shares of Dune common stock tendered for purchase in the Offer. If the parties are able to agree on revised terms, the parties will announce such terms and, if there are less than ten business days left before the expiration of the Offer, extend the Offer so that Dune’s shareholders of a minimum of ten business days to consider such revised terms. However, there is no assurance that the parties will be able to agree on revised terms. If such terms are agreed upon, the parties do not expect the revised Offer Price for the Shares to be more than nominal.
