This Amendment No. 4 amends and supplements the Issuer Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (the “Original Schedule TO”), originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 26, 2022, by Exela Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Exela” or the “Company”) as amended by that certain Amendment No. 1 to Schedule TO filed with the SEC on February 1, 2022 (“Amendment No. 1”), that certain Amendment No. 2 to Schedule TO filed with the SEC on February 7, 2022 (“Amendment No. 2”) and that certain Amendment No. 3 to Schedule TO filed with the SEC on February 24, 2022 (“Amendment No. 3”, together with the Original Schedule TO, Amendment No. 1 and Amendment No. 2, the “Schedule TO”). This Amendment No. 4 is a filing to amend and restate the Second Amended and Restated Letter of Transmittal, previously filed as Exhibit (a)(1)(J) to the Schedule TO. You should read this Amendment No. 4 together with the Schedule TO, the Offer to Exchange and the Offer Documents.

 

This Amendment No. 4 is being filed to correct certain disclosure in Section 1 of the Instructions to the Second Amended and Restated Letter of Transmittal relating to the obligations of certain “Non-U.S. Persons” (as defined in the Offer to Exchange) with respect to taxes.

 

In addition, the Company was advised by DTC that, under DTC rules, DTC is cancelling all prior tenders. Accordingly, any stockholders who have previously tendered their shares of Common Stock in the Offer who wish to participate in the updated Offer will need to resubmit their tenders by following the instructions in the section of the Offer to Exchange entitled “Procedures for tendering shares of Common Stock in the Offer”.
