This Amendment No. 1 amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 3, 2013, (the “Schedule TO”) and relates to the offer by ACS Merger Corp, a Minnesota corporation (“Purchaser”) and a wholly-owned subsidiary of American CyberSystems, Inc., a Georgia corporation (“Parent”), to purchase all of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.10 per share (the “Shares”), of Analysts International Corporation, a Minnesota corporation (“Analysts”), at a purchase price of $6.45 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 September 3, 2013 (which, together with any amendments and supplements thereto, collectively constitute the “Offer to Purchase”) and in the related Letter of Transmittal, copies of which are attached to the Schedule TO as Exhibits (a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(B), respectively (which, together with the Offer to Purchase, as each may be amended or supplemented from time to time, collectively constitute the “Offer”). The Schedule TO (including the Offer to Purchase) and the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 filed with the SEC by Analysts on September 3, 2013, contain important information about the Offer, all of which should be read carefully by Analysts’ stockholders before any decision is made with respect to the Offer. The Offer is made pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 27, 2013, among Parent, Purchaser and Analysts.

Documentation relating to the Offer has been mailed to stockholders of Analysts and may be obtained at no charge at the website maintained by the SEC at www.sec.gov and may also be obtained at no charge by directing a request by mail to Alliance Advisors, 200 Broadacres Drive, 3rd Floor, Bloomfield, NJ 07003, or by calling toll-free at (855) 325-6670 (banks or brokers should call (973) 873-7721).

All information set forth in the Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal is incorporated by reference in answer to Items 1 through 12 in the Schedule TO, except those items as to which information is specifically provided herein. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Offer to Purchase.

Amendments to the Offer to Purchase

 

Items 1-11.

 

The Offer to Purchase and Items 1 through 11 of the Schedule TO, to the extent such Items incorporate by reference the information contained in the Offer to Purchase, are hereby amended by:

Amending and restating the bullet point under the heading “Under What Circumstances Would the Company File a Proxy Statement with the Commission?” on page 5 of the Offer to Purchase to read as follows:

Purchaser has certain rights, on and after October 31, 2013 if any conditions to the Offer shall not have been satisfied or waived, as applicable, as of that date, to cause the Company to file a preliminary proxy statement with the Commission relating to a merger of Purchaser with and into the Company. Purchaser also may, after three business days have passed since the later of (i) ten days after the filing of a preliminary proxy statement with the Commission relating to such a merger and (ii) the date on which the Commission has confirmed orally or in writing that it has no further comments on the preliminary proxy statement, terminate the Offer. Such rights are exercisable on the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement. In the event of such election, the Company will, as promptly as practicable, set a record date, and call, give notice of, convene and hold a special meeting of the Company shareholders to consider and vote upon the adoption and approval of the Merger Agreement and the Merger. Subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company Board will recommend that the shareholders of the Company vote in favor of approval of the Merger and the adoption of the Merger Agreement. Purchaser will not exercise its option to cause the Company to file a definitive proxy statement for a special meeting of the Company shareholders to consider and vote upon the adoption and approval of the Merger Agreement and the Merger until the Offer has been terminated or expired.

Amending and restating the bullet point under the heading “Can I Withdraw Shares I Previously Tendered in Your Offer? Until What Time Can I Withdraw Previously Tendered Shares?” on page 6 of the Offer to Purchase to read as follows: 

You may withdraw previously tendered Shares any time prior to the expiration of the Offer. In addition, if we have not accepted your Shares for payment by November 2, 2013, you may withdraw them at any time after that date until we accept your Shares for payment. Once we accept your Shares for payment upon the expiration of the Offer, you will no longer be able to withdraw them. Shares tendered during a subsequent offering period, if any, may not be withdrawn (see Section 1 — “Terms of the Offer” and Section 4 — “Withdrawal Rights”).

 

2
 

Amending and restating the bullet point under the heading “What is the Top-Up Option and When Could it Be Exercised?” on page 8 of the Offer to Purchase to read as follows:

The Company has granted Purchaser an irrevocable option (the “Top-Up Option”), exercisable from and after the date and time at which Purchaser first accepts for payment Shares tendered in the Offer until the earlier of the effective date of the Merger or the termination of the Merger Agreement, to purchase up to that number of newly issued Shares (the “Top-Up Option Shares”) equal to the lesser of (i) the number of Shares that, when added to the number of Shares owned by Parent and Purchaser at the time of exercise, constitutes one Share more than the number of Shares necessary for Purchaser to be merged into the Company through a “short-form” merger pursuant to Section 302A.621 of the MBCA (after giving effect to the issuance of the Top-Up Option Shares) and (ii) the aggregate number of Shares that the Company is authorized to issue under its articles of incorporation but that are not issued and outstanding (and are not subscribed for or otherwise committed to be issued or reserved for issuance) at the time of exercise of the Top-Up Option, in each case, for consideration per Top-Up Option Share equal to the Offer Price. As of August 29, 2013, there were 18,495,731 Shares available for issuance under the Top-Up Option, which Shares would (if the Top-Up Option is exercised) allow the Purchaser to purchase that number of Top-Up Option Shares necessary to effect a “short-form” merger under the MBCA if the Minimum Tender Condition is satisfied. The Top-Up Option is intended to expedite the timing of the completion of the Merger by permitting Purchaser to effect such a “short-form” merger pursuant to Section 302A.621 of the MBCA without the need for a meeting of holders of Shares at a time when the approval of the Merger at any meeting of the Company’s shareholders would be assured because of Purchaser’s ownership of a majority of the Shares following completion of the Offer (see Section 11 — “Purpose of the Offer and Plans for the Company; Summary of the Merger Agreement and Certain Other Agreements” and Section 15 — “Certain Legal Matters”). 

Amending and restating the first paragraph of Section 4 (Withdrawal Rights) on page 19 to read as follows:

Except as otherwise provided in this Section 4, tenders of Shares pursuant to the Offer are irrevocable. However, as explained below, you may withdraw Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer at any time prior to the expiration time of the Offer, and if we have not accepted Shares for payment by November 2, 2013, you may withdraw them at any time after that date until we accept your Shares for payment. 

Amending and restating the paragraph under the heading “Sources of Information” in Section 8 (Certain Information Concerning the Company) on page 23 to read as follows:

Except as otherwise set forth herein, the information concerning the Company contained in this Offer to Purchase has been based upon publicly available documents and records on file with the Commission and other public sources. 

Amending and restating the first paragraph under the heading “Background of the Offer and the Merger; Past Contacts or Negotiations between Parent and the Company” of Section 10 (Background of the Offer; Contacts with the Company) on page 25 to read as follows:

The information set forth below contains a description of contacts between representatives of Parent and representatives of the Company that resulted in the execution of the Merger Agreement. For a review of the Company’s activities relating to these contacts, please refer to the Company’s Schedule 14D-9 mailed to shareholders with the Offer to Purchase.

 

3
 

Amending and restating page 28 under the heading “Background of the Offer and the Merger; Past Contacts or Negotiations between Parent and the Company” of Section 10 (Background of the Offer; Contacts with the Company) so that the first two paragraphs on page 28 read as follows:

 

As part of the negotiation of the Merger Agreement, Parent required that each director of the Company agree, in his or her individual capacity, to tender all shares beneficially owned by the director into the Offer and, if applicable, to vote all shares beneficially owned by the director in favor of the Merger, against any proposal that could be reasonably expected to impede the Merger, and against any alternative takeover proposal.  Nothing in the agreements between Parent and each of the Company’s directors limits the actions that may be taken by a director of the Company in his or her capacity as a director.  Between August 23 and August 26, counsel for Parent and the Company negotiated Shareholder Tender and Support Agreements between Parent and each of the Company’s directors that contained the foregoing provisions.  The Shareholder Tender and Support Agreements were executed contemporaneously with the Merger Agreement on August 27.  The above is a summary of certain provisions of the Shareholder Tender and Support Agreements.  This summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Shareholder Tender and Support Agreements, copies of which are filed as Exhibits (d)(9) through (d)(15) to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed by Parent and Purchaser with the Commission on September 3, 2013.

 

Because one possible outcome of the strategic-alternatives process initiated by the Special Committee in December 2012 was a sale of the Company, the Compensation Committee of the Company Board (the “Compensation Committee”) did not grant Ms. McKinney or Ms. Blake a 2013 award under the Company’s long-term incentive program.  At the Compensation Committee’s meetings on June 20 and July 30, 2013, the Compensation Committee discussed the key roles played by Ms. McKinney and Ms. Blake in the Company’s strategic-alternatives and sale processes, the importance of retaining those executive officers through the consummation of a potential sale transaction, and the Compensation Committee’s prior determination not to grant those executive officers a 2013 award under the long-term incentive program.  At the conclusion of its July 30, 2013 meeting, the Compensation Committee expressed its intent to grant retention/transaction bonus awards to Ms. McKinney and Ms. Blake, with those awards to be contingent on the closing of an acquisition transaction and the value of which would be determined based on a formula tied to the per-share acquisition price in that transaction.  On August 27, 2013, the Compensation Committee approved a Retention/Transaction Bonus Agreement with each of Ms. McKinney and Ms. Blake, which agreements were executed the same day without negotiation.  Although the Company disclosed to Parent, before execution of the Merger Agreement, the Compensation Committee’s intention to grant retention/transaction bonus awards to Ms. McKinney and Ms. Blake, including the maximum potential value of those awards, neither Parent nor Purchaser played any role in the Compensation Committee’s decision to grant those awards or in the Compensation Committee’s determination of the terms and conditions of the awards.  The above is a summary of certain provisions of the Retention/Transaction Bonus Agreements.  This summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Retention/Transaction Bonus Agreements, copies of which are filed as Exhibits (e)(14) and (e)(15) to the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 filed by the Company with the Commission on September 3, 2013.

Amending and restating the lead-in paragraph to the list of conditions in Section 13 (Conditions to the Offer) on page 50 to read as follows:

Notwithstanding any other term of the Offer or the Merger Agreement, Purchaser shall not be required to accept for payment or, subject to any applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, including Rule 14e-l(c) under the Exchange Act (relating to Purchaser’s obligation to pay for or return tendered Shares promptly after the termination or withdrawal of the Offer), to pay for any Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer, and may, subject to the provisions of the Merger Agreement, delay the acceptance for payment of or the payment for, any tendered Shares, and (subject to the provisions of the Merger Agreement) may terminate the Offer and not accept for payment any tendered Shares, (A) unless the conditions in clauses (a) and (i) are satisfied or (B) if at any time on or after the commencement of the Offer and before the expiration of the Offer, any of the following events or circumstances in clauses (b) through (h) shall have occurred and be continuing:

Exhibit (a)(1)(I)

Dear Participants in the Analysts International Corporation Savings and Investment Plan: 

You are receiving this letter and the enclosed Instruction Form in connection with the offer by American CyberSystems, Inc., a Georgia corporation (“Parent”), and ACS Merger Corp., a Minnesota corporation (“Purchaser”) and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, to purchase all outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.10 per share (the “Shares”), of Analysts International Corporation, a Minnesota corporation (the “Company”), at a price of $6.45 per Share (“Offer Price”), net to the seller in cash (less any required withholding taxes and without interest), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the enclosed Offer to Purchase, dated September 3, 2013 (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Offer to Purchase”) and in the related Letter of Transmittal (together with the Offer to Purchase, the “Offer”). The enclosed Offer to Purchase describes the Offer in greater detail, including the conditions that must be satisfied before Purchaser will purchase Shares in the Offer. As required by law, the Company filed a Schedule 14D-9 with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the Offer, a copy of which also is enclosed and which you are encouraged to read in its entirety with the Offer to Purchase.

This letter relates to the Shares held by you under the Analysts International Corporation Savings and Investment Plan (the “401(k) Plan”) that are held by Wells Fargo Bank N.A. (“Wells Fargo”) as trustee of the 401(k) Plan on your behalf. A tender of such Shares can be made only by the trustee as the holder of record. However, under the terms of the 401(k) Plan, each participant or beneficiary, including you, may decide whether to instruct Wells Fargo, as trustee, to tender the Shares allocated to your account under the 401(k) Plan for sale in accordance with the terms of the Offer. Because the 401(k) Plan passes this tender decision to you, Wells Fargo is required to follow your validly delivered instructions, provided they are in accordance with the terms of the 401(k) Plan and are not inconsistent with Wells Fargo’s responsibilities under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”). You are entitled to instruct Wells Fargo whether to tender all or a portion of the Shares allocated to your account under the 401(k) Plan as of the expiration date of the tender offer. With respect to any Shares held by the 401(k) Plan that are tendered as a result of the Offer, such cash paid per Share will be paid to the 401(k) Plan on your behalf and invested in the Wells Fargo Stable Return Fund. You may transfer them to other Plan investment options after they have been allocated. This letter and the enclosed Instruction Form require your immediate attention. In accordance with the terms of the 401(k) Plan, Wells Fargo requests instructions from you as to whether you wish to have Wells Fargo tender on your behalf any or all of such Shares held by Wells Fargo for your account, pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer.

THE OFFER AND WITHDRAWAL RIGHTS WILL EXPIRE AT 12:00 MIDNIGHT, NEW YORK CITY TIME, AT THE END OF MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 2013, UNLESS THE OFFER IS EXTENDED OR EARLIER TERMINATED.

To instruct Wells Fargo to tender Shares held by Wells Fargo in your 401(k) Plan account, please complete the attached Instruction Form and return it to Wells Fargo Shareowner Services for tabulation in the envelope provided so it is received on or before 5:00 p.m., New York City time, September 25, 2013 (which is three business days before the Offer is currently scheduled to expire), so that your Shares may be properly tabulated and tendered by Wells Fargo before the expiration of the Offer. Please note that if Wells Fargo Shareowner Services does not receive a signed Instruction Form from you by this deadline, your Shares will not be submitted to be tendered into the Offer unless Wells Fargo determines that it is obligated to tender them.

Your attention is directed to the following:

1. The board of directors of the Company and a special committee of the board of directors of the Company consisting solely of independent directors each unanimously recommend that you tender all of your Shares into the Offer.

2. The Offer is being made pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 27, 2013 (together with any amendments thereto, “Merger Agreement”), among Parent, Purchaser and the Company. The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, that, after the completion of the Offer and the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, Purchaser will merge with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). The Merger Agreement is more fully described in the Offer to Purchase. Following the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), the Company will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent and the separate corporate existence of Purchaser will cease. At the Effective Time, each Share
 

 
 

issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, including any Shares held by the 401(k) Plan (other than Shares held by Parent, Purchaser or any direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent or the Company and Shares owned by shareholders entitled to demand and who properly demand dissenters’ rights in accordance with applicable law) will be canceled, and will be converted into the right to receive in cash the per Share price paid in the Offer, payable to the holder thereof, without interest, less any required withholding taxes. With respect to any Shares held by the 401(k) Plan that are canceled as a result of the Merger, such cash paid per Share will be paid to the 401(k) Plan on your behalf and invested in the Wells Fargo Stable Return Fund. You may transfer them to other Plan investment options after they have been allocated.

3. The Offer and withdrawal rights will expire at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, at the end of Monday, September 30, 2013, unless the Offer is extended or earlier terminated. Please note that if the Offer is extended, the date upon which you must submit your instruction to Wells Fargo Shareowner Services will also be extended to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, three business days before the date the Offer as so extended is scheduled to expire.

Your instructions to us will be kept confidential. In order to ensure that your instructions remain confidential, please return the enclosed Instruction Form directly to Wells Fargo Shareowner Services.

If you previously signed and returned a Letter of Transmittal in connection with Shares held by you outside your 401(k) Plan account, you must still complete the enclosed Instruction Form and return it to Wells Fargo Shareowner Services in order to tender Shares held in your 401(k) Plan account.

If you have questions relating to the 401(k) Plan, call Wells Fargo Retirement Services at 1-800-377-9188. If you have any questions with regard to the Offer to Purchase and associated tender offer materials in connection with the Offer, or if you have not received any of the offer materials, please call the Information Agent for the Offer, Alliance Advisors LLC at 855-325-6670 or e-mail the Information Agent at reorg@allianceadvisorsllc.com.

Sincerely,

Wells Fargo Bank N.A., TRUSTEE OF THE Analysts International Corporation Savings and Investment Plan
