This is the final amendment to the Issuer Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 22, 2014 (the “Statement Filing Date”) by Pine Grove Alternative Fund (the “Fund”) relating to an offer to purchase shares of beneficial interest of the Fund (“Shares”) in an amount up to 10% of the net assets of the Fund from shareholders of the Fund (“Shareholders”) at their net asset value (i.e., the value of the Fund’s assets minus its liabilities, divided by the number of Shares outstanding) on the terms, and subject to the conditions, set out in the Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal. Copies of the Offer to Purchase and the Letter of Transmittal were previously filed as Exhibits B and C to the Statement on the Statement Filing Date.
This final amendment to the Statement is being filed to report the results of the Offer. The following information is furnished pursuant to Rule 13e-4(c)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934:
1. Shareholders which desired to tender Shares were required to submit their tenders by 12:00 midnight, Eastern Time, on June 22, 2014 (the “Notice Date”). Shareholders were allowed to withdraw any tenders of their Shares until the Offer expired at 12:00 midnight, Eastern Time, on August 31, 2014 (the “Expiration Date”).
2. Certain Shareholders validly tendered all or some of their respective Shares (as designated by such Shareholders) as $0 in the aggregate before the Notice Date and did not withdraw such tenders before the Expiration Date. Those tenders were accepted for repurchase by the Fund in accordance with the terms of the Offer.
3. The net asset value of the Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer was calculated as of September 30, 2014 (the “Valuation Date”).
4. The payment of the purchase price of the Shares tendered was made in the form of promissory notes respectively given on October 30, 2014 to the Shareholders whose tenders were accepted for purchase by the Fund in accordance with the terms of the Offer. There were no submissions of letter of transmittal by the shareholders to repurchase of shares and as a result no payments of repurchase were made to the shareholders.
