This Amendment No. 2 to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (this “ Amendment ”) is filed by Curtiss-Wright Corporation, a Delaware corporation (" Curtiss-Wright "), and Columbia Acquisition Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Curtiss-Wright (" Purchaser "). This Amendment amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 15, 2012, as amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 1 filed on November 30, 2012, (together with any further amendments and supplements thereto, the “ Schedule TO ”), and relates to the offer by Purchaser to purchase each of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the " Shares "), of Williams Controls, Inc., a Delaware corporation (" Williams Controls "), at a price of $15.42 per Share, net to the seller in cash, without interest thereon and less any required withholding taxes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated November 15, 2012 (the " Offer to Purchase ") and the related Letter of Transmittal, copies of which are respectively set forth as Exhibits (a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(B) hereto, and together with any amendments or supplements thereto, collectively constitute the " Offer ."
Except as otherwise indicated in this Amendment, the information set forth in the Schedule TO remains unchanged. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule TO.
This amendment is being filed to correct a typographical error in the Summary Term Sheet of the Offer to Purchase and a typographical error in Section 11 of the Offer to Purchase. These errors are related to the required percentage of Shares to be tendered in the Offer, in order for Purchaser to exercise the top-up option, as defined therein.
The information set forth in the Offer to Purchase (as amended hereby), is hereby incorporated by reference in answer to Items 1 through 11 of the Schedule TO, and is supplemented by the information specifically provided in this Amendment.
Amendment to Offer to Purchase
Items 1 through 11 of the Schedule TO, to the extent such Items incorporate by reference the information contained in the Summary Term Sheet or Section 11 of the Offer to Purchase are hereby amended and restated. The Summary Term Sheet of the Offer to Purchase is hereby amended by amending and restating the last sentence of the third paragraph of the Principal Terms as follows:
“The top-up option would be exercised if greater than approximately 85% of the shares are tendered and purchased in the Offer.”
Section 11 of the Offer to Purchase is hereby amended by amending and restating the penultimate sentence of the fourteenth paragraph as follows:
“Taking into account the net exercise of the options as required pursuant to the Tender and Support Agreements, Purchaser will be able to exercise the top-up option if an additional approximately 59% of the currently issued and outstanding Shares are validly tendered pursuant to the Offer and not properly withdrawn (including the Shares tendered pursuant to the Tender and Support Agreements).”
