“At 12:00 midnight, New York City time, at the end of Monday, August 13, 2018, the Offer expired. The Depositary has advised Purchaser that, as of the expiration of the Offer, a total of 9,285,239 Shares, representing approximately 82% of the Company’s currently outstanding Shares, were validly tendered and not withdrawn in the Offer, including 144,141 Shares tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures.
As of the expiration of the Offer, the number of Shares validly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer satisfied the Minimum Condition, and all other conditions to the Offer were satisfied. Immediately after the expiration of the Offer, Purchaser irrevocably accepted for payment, and will promptly pay for, all Shares that were validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to the expiration of the Offer.
Following the consummation of the Offer, Parent and Purchaser intend to complete the acquisition of the Company through the Merger without a meeting of the stockholders of the Company in accordance with Section 251(h) of the DGCL. At the effective time of the Merger, each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to such time (other than any (i) Shares held in the treasury of the Company, (ii) Shares that at the commencement of the Offer were owned by Parent or Purchaser, or any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of Parent or Purchaser, (iii) Shares irrevocably accepted for purchase in the Offer and (iv) Shares held by the Company’s stockholders who properly demanded and perfected appraisal rights under Delaware law) will be converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the Offer Price, net to the seller in cash, without any interest and subject to and reduced by any required withholding of taxes.
Following consummation of the Merger, the Shares will be delisted and will cease to trade on NASDAQ. Parent intends to take steps to cause the Shares to be deregistered under the Exchange Act and suspend all of the Company’s reporting obligations under the Exchange Act as promptly as practicable.
On August 14, 2018, Catalent and the Company issued a joint press release relating to the expiration and results of the Offer and the anticipated timing of the Merger. The full text of the press release is attached as Exhibit (a)(5)(E) hereto, and is incorporated herein by reference.”
