This Amendment No. 4 to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (this “Amendment No. 4”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 21, 2014, as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto filed with the SEC on May 22, 2014, Amendment No. 2 thereto filed with the SEC on May 23, 2014 and Amendment No. 3 thereto filed with the SEC on June 12, 2014 (the “Schedule TO”) by Thompson Creek Metals Company Inc., a corporation organized as a corporation under the laws of Ontario, Canada and continued under the laws of British Columbia, Canada (the “Company”), in relation to its offer to exchange a number of shares of its common stock (the “Common Stock”) for each validly tendered and accepted unit of the Company’s outstanding 6.50% Tangible Equity Units (“TMEDS”), on the terms and subject to the conditions described in the Offer to Exchange, dated May 21, 2014, as amended, and the related Letter of Transmittal, which, as amended or supplemented from time to time, together constitute the Exchange Offer.

 

The Schedule TO was, and this Amendment No. 4 is, being filed in satisfaction of the reporting requirements of Rule 13e-4 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

 

The information set forth in the Offer to Exchange, including the accompanying Letter of Transmittal, is incorporated in this Amendment No. 4 by reference to all of the applicable items in the Schedule TO, except that such information is hereby amended and supplemented to the extent specifically provided herein.

 

Pursuant to the Offer to Exchange, promptly after 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 20, 2014, the Exchange Ratio (as defined in the Offer to Exchange) for each unit of TMEDS was determined. The Exchange Ratio for each unit of TMEDS was announced in a press release issued on June 23, 2014, which is attached hereto as Exhibit (a)(5).

 

Item 4. Terms of the Transaction.

 

Item 4(a) of the Schedule TO, which incorporates by reference the information contained in the Exchange Offer, is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following thereto:

 

On June 23, 2014, the Company issued a news release announcing that the final exchange ratio has been set at 5.8458 shares of Common Stock for each validly tendered and accepted TMEDS unit pursuant to the Exchange Offer (the “Exchange Ratio”).  The Exchange Ratio is equal to the sum of (i) 5.3879 shares of Common Stock plus (ii) a number of shares of our Common Stock equal to $1.25 divided by $2.73, which is the five day arithmetic daily volume-weighted average price of the Company’s Common Stock over the trading period beginning on June 16, 2014 and ending on the June 20, 2014, the pricing date.  Fractional shares will not be issued in the Exchange Offer and holders will receive the cash value of any fractional shares due to them, which cash value shall be the product of the fractional shares to be received and $2.73.

 

In addition to the Exchange Ratio, holders who participate in the Exchange Offer will receive the accrued portion of the $0.406250 quarterly cash installment payment that has accrued from May 15, 2014 to the settlement date of the exchange offer and that is payable in respect of the amortizing note component of each TMEDS unit. Such cash installment payment reflects both accrued interest and the partial repayment of principal in respect of the amortizing notes component of each TMEDS unit.

 

Item 12. Exhibits.

 

Item 12 of Schedule TO is hereby amended by adding the following:

 

(a)(5) News Release, dated June 23, 2014, announcing pricing of Exchange Offer.
