Cable & Wireless intends to contribute its ownership interest in Purchaser to Cable & Wireless USA, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Cable & Wireless ("Cable & Wireless USA"), prior to the consummation of the Offer.
Item 1. Summary Term Sheet
Item 1 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented to include the following information:
SUMMARY TERM SHEET
The "Summary Term Sheet" section of the Offer to Purchase is amended by amending and restating the sixth summary term question entitled "Is your financial condition relevant to my decision to tender in the Offer" on page iii as follows:
| "• | We do not think that our financial condition is relevant to your decision to tender in the Offer because the form of payment for your Digital Island shares consists solely of cash and the Offer is not subject to a financing condition." |
In addition, the eleventh summary term question entitled "Until what time can I withdraw previously tendered shares?" on page iv is amended and restated as follows:
| "• | You may withdraw previously tendered shares at any time prior to the expiration of the Offer, and, unless we have accepted the shares for payment pursuant to the Offer, you may also withdraw any tendered shares at any time after July 19, 2001. See 'Section 4. Withdrawal Rights.' " |
Item 4. Terms of the Transaction
Item 4 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented to included the following information:
Section 14. Certain Conditions of the Offer
Section 14 of the Offer to Purchase beginning on page 40 is amended by amending and restating the final paragraph in such section as follows:
"The foregoing conditions are for the sole benefit of Purchaser and Cable & Wireless and may be asserted by Purchaser or Cable & Wireless regardless of the circumstances giving rise to any such condition or may be waived by Purchaser or Cable & Wireless in whole or in part at any time and from time to time prior to the expiration of the Offer in their sole discretion; provided that, Purchaser and Cable & Wireless may not avail themselves of any such condition at any time during which either Purchaser or Cable & Wireless is in breach in any material respect of any of its representations, warranties and covenants set forth in the Merger Agreement to the extent (and only to the extent) such
2
breach causes the failure of the Minimum Condition or of any of the conditions set forth in this Section 14. The failure by Cable & Wireless or Purchaser at any time to exercise any of the foregoing rights shall not be deemed a waiver of any such right; the waiver of any such right with respect to particular facts and other circumstances shall not be deemed a waiver with respect to any other facts and circumstances; and each such right shall be deemed an ongoing right that may be asserted at any time and from time to time prior to the expiration of the Offer."
