This Amendment No. 5 amends and supplements the Issuer Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed by Fortive Corporation (Fortive) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on August 28, 2018, as amended by Amendment No. 1, Amendment No. 2, Amendment No. 3 and Amendment No. 4 to the Issuer Tender Offer Statement, filed with the SEC on September 5, 2018, September 14, 2018, September 24, 2018 and September 26, 2018, respectively (as so amended, the Schedule TO).
This Schedule TO relates to the offer by Fortive to exchange all shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (Newco common stock), of Stevens Holding Company, Inc. (Newco) for shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Fortive (Fortive common stock) that were validly tendered and not properly withdrawn prior to the expiration of the Exchange Offer (as defined below). The Exchange Offer expired at 8:00 a.m., New York City time, on September 26, 2018.
Following consummation of the Exchange Offer, on October 1, 2018, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Altra Industrial Motion Corp. (Altra) named McHale Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (Merger Sub), merged with and into Newco, whereby the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub ceased and Newco continued as the surviving company (the Merger). In the Merger, each outstanding share of Newco common stock (except for shares of Newco common stock held by Fortive, Newco, Altra or Merger Sub) converted into the right to receive one share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Altra (Altra common stock), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Prospectus, dated August 28, 2018 (the Prospectus), the Letter of Transmittal and the Exchange and Transmittal Information Booklet, copies of which were previously filed as Exhibits (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii), respectively to the Schedule TO (which, together with any amendments or supplements thereto, collectively constitute the Exchange Offer).
In connection with the Exchange Offer, Newco has filed with the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), a registration statement on Form S-4 and Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-224754) (the Registration Statement) to register the shares of Newco common stock offered in exchange for shares of Fortive common stock tendered in the Exchange Offer. Altra has filed under the Securities Act a registration statement on Form S-4 (Registration No. 333-224750) to register the shares of Altra common stock into which shares of Newco common stock converted in the Merger.
This Amendment No. 5 shall be read together with the Schedule TO. Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 5 does not modify any of the information previously reported on the Schedule TO.
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:
Based on the final count by the exchange agent, a total of 128,334,418 shares of Fortive common stock were validly tendered (and not withdrawn) in the Exchange Offer, including 1,044,789 shares tendered by odd-lot shareholders. Odd-lot shareholders (other than plan participants under Fortive savings plans) were eligible for preferential treatment whereby their shares would be fully accepted in the Exchange Offer without being subject to proration. The remaining validly tendered shares of Fortive common stock were accepted in the exchange on a pro rata basis using the final proration factor. Based on the final count by the exchange agent, the final proration factor is 11.6114%. Shares of Fortive common stock that were validly tendered but not accepted for exchange will be returned to tendering shareholders.
In the Exchange Offer, Fortive accepted the maximum of 15,824,931 shares of Fortive common stock in exchange for all the shares of Newco common stock held by Fortive. Each share of Fortive common stock accepted for exchange by Fortive was exchanged for 35,000,000 shares of Newco common stock, which were converted into shares of Altra common stock pursuant to the Merger.
Under the terms of the Exchange Offer, fractional shares of Altra common stock will not be issued. Rather, any holder of shares of Newco common stock who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Altra common stock (after aggregating all fractional shares issuable to such holder) shall, in lieu of such fraction of a share, be paid in cash the dollar amount (rounded to the nearest whole cent), after deducting any required withholding taxes, on a pro rata basis, without interest, determined by multiplying such fraction by the closing price of a share of Altra common stock on the NASDAQ Global Market on the last business day prior to the closing of the Merger.
On October 1, 2018, Fortive issued a press release announcing the final results of the Exchange Offer and the final proration factor for shares tendered in the Exchange Offer, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit (a)(4)(xxvii) hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
