| Item 2.01. |
Completion of Acquisition of Disposition of Assets. |
On August 8, 2012, Bristol-Myers Squibb Company (the “Company”) completed its previously announced acquisition of Amylin Pharmaceutials, Inc. (“Amylin”), through the merger (the
“Merger”) of B&R Acquisition Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Purchaser”), with and into Amylin, with Amylin surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”).
As previously disclosed, on June 29, 2012, the Company, the Purchaser and Amylin entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the
“Merger Agreement”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Purchaser commenced a cash tender offer to acquire all of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Amylin (the “Shares”), at a price per share
equal to $31.00, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions disclosed in the offer to purchase included in the tender offer statement on Schedule TO and in the related letter of
transmittal (as amended or supplemented from time to time) filed by the Company and Purchaser with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on July 10, 2012 (the “Offer”).
The Offer expired at 5:00 PM, New York City time, on August 7, 2012. The depositary for the Offer advised that 140,550,153 Shares
were validly tendered and not properly withdrawn (not counting as validly tendered Shares tendered through notice of guaranteed delivery and not actually tendered), representing approximately 85.55% of the outstanding Shares. All Shares that were
validly tendered and not properly withdrawn were accepted for payment in accordance with the terms of the Offer.
On
August 8, 2012, Purchaser exercised its option under the Merger Agreement (the “Top-Up Option”) to acquire from Amylin a number of additional Shares for $31.00 per share (the “Top-Up Shares”) to ensure that Purchaser and the
Company could effect a short-form merger under applicable Delaware law. Immediately following the issuance of the Top-Up Shares to Purchaser, Purchaser owned in excess of 90% of the outstanding Shares at such time.
Also on August 8, 2012, Purchaser effected a “short-form” merger under Delaware law, pursuant to which the Merger was
completed. In the Merger, each Share (other than any Shares held by the Company, Purchaser, held in treasury by Amylin or held by any stockholders who validly exercised their appraisal rights in connection with the Merger under Delaware law),
restricted stock unit and stock option was cancelled and extinguished and automatically converted into the right to receive $31.00 in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes and, with respect to stock options, less the
applicable exercise price. All time-based restricted stock units were cancelled and extinguished as specified in the previous sentence while only the portion of the performance-based restricted stock units that would have vested had the applicable
performance objectives been achieved at target levels were cancelled and extinguished as specified in the previous sentence.
The aggregate consideration in the Offer and the Merger to acquire all of the outstanding Shares and for payments with respect to
restricted stock units and stock options, is approximately $5.3 billion in cash. The Company has funded the consideration for the Shares, restricted stock units and options acquired in the Offer and the Merger through cash on hand, the net proceeds
from a notes offering and the issuance of commercial paper, all as previously disclosed.
A copy of the press release issued
by the Company on August 8, 2012 regarding the expiration and results of the tender offer and filed as Exhibit (a)(5)(P) to Schedule TO-T/A filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 8, 2012, is incorporated
herein by reference as Exhibit 99.1.
Attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 is a copy of the press release issued by the Company on
August 9, 2012 regarding the completion of the Merger, which is incorporated herein by reference.
