The information set forth in the Offer to Purchase, including Schedule I thereto, is hereby incorporated by reference in answer to Items 1 through 11 of this Schedule TO, and is supplemented by the information specifically provided herein.
ITEMS 1 THROUGH 9; ITEM 11.
The Offer to Purchase is hereby amended as follows:
Summary Term Sheet
In the “Summary Term Sheet” section of the Offer to Purchase, the first paragraph in the answer to the question “If I do not tender but the offer is successful, what will happen to my Shares?” is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
“If, following the consummation of the offer, we own at least 90% of the outstanding Shares, including the Shares currently owned by the Landry’s Group, we will cause MSSR to consummate the Proposed Merger promptly under the DGCL in which all Shares held by the remaining stockholders would be converted into the right to cash equal to the same price per Share as was paid in the offer, without interest. If, after the offer is completed but prior to the consummation of the Proposed Merger, the aggregate ownership by Purchaser and its affiliates of the outstanding Shares should fall below 90% for any reason, Purchaser may decide to acquire additional Shares in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or through other unspecified or alternative methods to the extent required for such ownership to equal or exceed 90%; provided, that the consideration per Share paid for any Shares so acquired will be at least equal to the highest consideration offered to the holders of Shares in the Offer.”
Section 10 – “Background of the Offer”
The last paragraph of Section 10 (“Background of the Offer”) of the Offer to Purchase is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
“Also on May 4, 2011, Mr. Fertitta and Landry’s sent a letter to MSSR’s Board of Directors and issued a press release in response to MSSR’s announcement that it had begun a sale process. In the letter and press release, Mr. Fertitta and Landry’s announced that it would participate in the sale process and withdraw its Withhold Proxy.
On May 9, 2011, Doug Schmick sent a letter to Mr. Fertitta on behalf of the MSSR Board of Directors acknowledging Mr. Fertitta’s letter dated May 4, 2011 and informing Mr. Fertitta that Piper Jaffray & Co., MSSR’s financial advisor, would be in contact regarding Landry’s participation in the sale process.”
Section 11 – “Purpose of the Offer and the Proposed Merger; Statutory Requirements; the Rights Condition; Appraisal Rights; ‘Going-Private’ Transactions.”
The fifth paragraph of Section 11 (“Purpose of the Offer and the Proposed Merger; Statutory Requirements; the Rights Condition; Appraisal Rights; ‘Going-Private’ Transactions”) of the Offer to Purchase is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
“If Purchaser acquires Shares in the Offer, depending upon the number of Shares so acquired and other factors relevant to its equity ownership in MSSR, Purchaser may, subsequent to the consummation of the Offer, seek to acquire additional Shares through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, a tender or exchange offer, other unspecified or alternative transactions or a combination of the foregoing on such terms and at such prices as it shall determine, which may be different than the price paid in the Offer, but shall be at least equal to the highest consideration offered to the holders of Shares in the Offer. Purchaser also reserves the right to dispose of Shares that it has acquired or may acquire.”
The second to last paragraph of Section 11 (“Purpose of the Offer and the Proposed Merger; Statutory Requirements; the Rights Condition; Appraisal Rights; ‘Going-Private’ Transactions”) of the Offer to Purchase is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
“On the other hand, if Purchaser waives the Approval Condition and purchases Shares in the Offer or otherwise and is prevented by Section 203 of the DGCL from consummating a merger or other business combination with MSSR for any period of time, it may (i) determine not to seek to consummate such a merger or other business combination, (ii) seek to acquire additional Shares in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or through other unspecified or alternative methods, at prices at least equal to the highest consideration offered to the holders of the Shares, or (iii) seek to effect one or more alternative transactions with or by MSSR. Purchaser has not determined whether it would take any of the actions described above under such circumstances.”
Section 14 – “Conditions to the Offer”
The last paragraph of Section 14 (“Conditions to the Offer”) of the Offer to Purchase is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
“The foregoing conditions are for the sole benefit of Purchaser or Landry’s and may be asserted by Purchaser and Landry’s, in their reasonable judgment, regardless of the circumstances giving rise to any such conditions, so long as such conditions are not triggered by the action or inaction of Purchaser, Landry’s or Mr. Fertitta, or, subject to the Offer remaining open for a minimum period of time following waiver of a material condition as required by the rules and regulations of the SEC, may be waived by Purchaser or Landry’s, subject to applicable law, in their sole discretion, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time prior to the Expiration Date. To the extent permitted by the rules and regulations of the SEC which require the satisfaction or waiver of conditions prior to expiration of the Offer, the failure by Purchaser or Landry’s at any time to exercise any of the foregoing rights shall not be deemed a waiver of any such right and each such right shall be deemed an ongoing right that may be asserted at any time and from time to time. Any determination by Purchaser or Landry’s concerning any condition or event described in this Section 14 shall be final and binding upon all parties to the fullest extent permitted by law.”
