        On November 30, 2007, Philips Merger Sub commenced the tender offer for the Genlyte shares, which is being made in accordance with the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of November 25, 2007, by and among Genlyte, Philips Holding USA Inc. and Philips Merger Sub (the "merger agreement"). While the mandatory waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the applicable waiting period under the Competition Act (Canada), in each case, applicable to the acquisition of Genlyte by Philips Holding USA Inc., have expired as of January 2, 2008, not all of the approvals related to the remaining non-U.S. regulatory filings required to close the tender offer had yet been obtained. As of 12:00 midnight on January 2, 2008, Philips Merger Sub had received a preliminary number of tenders representing approximately 23.7 million of the outstanding Genlyte shares, which represented approximately 77 percent of the outstanding Genlyte shares (on a fully diluted basis).
