This Amendment No. 4 (“Amendment No. 4”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO originally filed by PPW Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“PPW” or the “Offeror”) and an affiliate and the sole holder of the common stock of PacifiCorp, an Oregon corporation (“PAC” or the “Company”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on December 17, 2024, as amended by Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”), filed with the SEC on December 23, 2024, Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”), filed with the SEC on December 27, 2024, and Amendment No. 3 (“Amendment No. 3”), filed with the SEC on January 3, 2025 (as so amended, the “Schedule TO”). The Schedule TO relates to the offers by the Offeror to purchase for cash any and all of the Company’s outstanding shares of (i) 6.00% Serial Preferred Stock (the “6.00% Preferred Stock” and such offer, the “6.00% Preferred Stock Offer”), and (ii) 7.00% Serial Preferred Stock (the “7.00% Preferred Stock” and, together with the 6.00% Preferred Stock, the “Preferred Stock” and such offer, together with the 6.00% Preferred Stock Offer, the “Offers” and each, an “Offer”), at a purchase price of $155.00 per share for the 6.00% Preferred Stock and $180.00 per share for the 7.00% Preferred Stock, plus in each case Accrued Dividends (as defined in the Offer to Purchase), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated December 17, 2024 (as amended by Amendment No. 1, Amendment No. 2 and Amendment No. 3, and as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Offer to Purchase”) and in the accompanying Letter of Transmittal (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Letter of Transmittal,” and which together with the Offer to Purchase, constitutes the Offers).
The purpose of this Amendment No. 4 is to amend and supplement the Schedule TO to announce the final results of the Offers. Only those items amended in the Schedule TO are reported in this Amendment No. 4. Except as specifically provided herein, the information contained in the Schedule TO and the Offer to Purchase remains unchanged, and this Amendment No. 4 does not modify any of the information previously reported on the Schedule TO and in the Offer to Purchase.
Item 11. Additional Information
Item 11 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:
The Offers expired at 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on January 24, 2025 (the “Expiration Date”).
