This Amendment No. 1 (this "Amendment") amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO relating to the tender offer by Papyrus Acquisition Corp., a Maryland corporation ("Purchaser") and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Smith & Nephew Consolidated, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Parent"), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Smith & Nephew plc, a public limited company formed under the laws of England and Wales ("Smith & Nephew"), for all outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Shares"), of Osiris Therapeutics, Inc. ("Osiris"), at a price per Share of $19.00 in cash, net to the holder of any applicable withholding taxes and without interest (the "Offer Price"), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated March 20, 2019 (the "Offer to Purchase"), a copy of which is attached as Exhibit (a)(1)(A), and in the related letter of transmittal (the "Letter of Transmittal", a copy of which is attached as Exhibit (a)(1)(B), and which, together with the Offer to Purchase and other related materials, as each may be amended or supplemented from time to time, constitutes the "Offer"). The original Schedule TO was filed by Purchaser, Parent and Smith & Nephew with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 20, 2019 (together with any subsequent amendments and supplements thereto, including this Amendment, the "Schedule TO").
All the information set forth in the Offer to Purchase, including Schedule I thereto, is incorporated by reference herein in response to Items 1 through 9 and Item 11 of this Schedule TO, and is supplemented by the information specifically provided in this Amendment.
Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Schedule TO.
Items 1 through 9 and Item 11.
The Offer to Purchase and Items 1 through 9 and Item 11 of the Schedule TO, to the extent such Items incorporate by reference the information contained in the Offer to Purchase, are hereby amended and supplemented as set forth below:
The subsection titled "Legal Proceedings Relating to the Tender Offer" in Section 16"Certain Legal Matters; Regulatory Approvals" of the Offer to Purchase is amended and supplemented by replacing the current disclosure in its entirety to read as follows:
"Four purported class action complaints relating to the Transaction were filed in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland on March 22, 2019, March 25, 2019, and March 27, 2019, on behalf of putative classes of Osiris' public shareholders. In addition, another purported class action complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on March 25, 2019, also on behalf of putative classes of Osiris' public shareholders. The five complaints are captioned: Recupero v. Friedli, et al., Case No. 1:19-cv-00870-ELH (D. Md.), Scarantino v. Osiris Therapeutics, Inc. et al., Case No. 1:19-cv-00876-DKC (D. Md.), Albrecht v. Osiris Therapeutics, Inc. et al., Case No. 1:19-cv-00903-ELH (D. Md.), Stein v. Osiris Therapeutics, Inc. et al., Case No. 1:19-cv-00907-JKB (D. Md.), and Bartlome v. Osiris Therapeutics, Inc. et al., Case No. 1:19-cv-02657 (S.D.N.Y.). All five complaints name as defendants the directors of Osiris, and Scarantino, Albrecht, Stein, and Bartlome also name Osiris as a defendant. Stein and Scarantino further name Smith & Nephew, Parent and Purchaser as defendants.
The complaints generally allege that Osiris and its directors violated federal securities laws by failing to disclose material information in the Schedule 14D-9 Solicitation/Recommendation Statement filed by Osiris on March 20, 2019. The Stein and Scarantino complaints further allege that the omissions constitute violations of federal securities laws by Smith & Nephew, Parent and Purchaser. The complaints seek, among other things, injunctive relief barring the proposed transaction, damages, and an award of plaintiffs' expenses and attorneys' fees. The defendants believe that the claims respectively asserted against them are without merit."
