INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN THE REPORT

Section 1 - Registrant’s Business and Operations

 

Item 1.01 Entry a Material Definitive Agreement

On April 25, 2006 Microsemi Corporation, a Delaware Corporation (the “Registrant” or “Microsemi”) entered into an Amendment No. 1 to Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Amendment”), which amended the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated November 2, 2005, by and among the Registrant, APT Acquisition Corp., Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Registrant, and Advanced Power Technology, Inc., a Delaware corporation (as so amendment the “Merger Agreement”). A copy of the Amendment was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 27, 2006 as Exhibit 2.6.1 to the Registrant’s Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-4 (Reg. No. 333-130655) and is hereby incorporated herein by this reference.

The Amendment amended the Merger Agreement to change the definition of “Merger Sub” to include that APT Acquisition Corp. was originally incorporated in Delaware under the name “Microsemi Corp. – Power.” The Amendment also amended the Merger Agreement’s provisions regarding the availability of dissenter’s rights under Delaware law to provide that holders of APT common stock shall be entitled to such rights. Additionally, the Amendment amended the provisions of the Merger Agreement regarding the conversion of APT common stock to account for the existence of dissenters rights under Delaware law. Finally, the Amendment amended the Registration’s representations and warranties with respect to the Registrant’s retention of finders or brokers in connection with the merger to reflect a claim made against the Registrant for a commission by Piper Jaffray & Company, which the Registrant has tentatively settled for $500,000.


Section 2 - Financial Information

 

Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On April 28, 2006, the Registrant completed its acquisition of Advanced Power Technology, Inc. pursuant to the Merger Agreement filed as Exhibit 2.6, which description is hereby incorporated herein by this reference, as a result of which APT became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Registrant. As provided in the Merger Agreement, each share of APT common stock outstanding at the close of business on April 28, 2006 was converted into the right to receive 0.435 of a share of Microsemi common stock and $2.00 in cash. Microsemi issued approximately 4,895,048 shares of common stock in exchange for the outstanding shares of APT common stock and shall make cash payments in the exchange of approximately $22,505,972. The cash payments were made out of Microsemi’s working capital. Microsemi also assumed outstanding options to purchase approximately 1,108,588 shares of Advanced Power Technology, Inc. common stock, which options were adjusted pursuant to an implied exchange ratio of 0.508206442 of a share of Microsemi common stock for each whole share of APT common stock, into options to purchase approximately 563,391 shares of Microsemi common stock at their original exercise prices as adjusted by the same ratio and otherwise subject to the same terms and conditions. The closing price of Microsemi common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market on April 28, 2006 was $27.32 per share.

APT is a leading supplier of power semiconductors for RF, microwave, linear, and Switch mode applications. APT shall be renamed Microsemi Corp.—Power Products Group after the consummation of the merger.
