INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT

This Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO originally filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on March 27, 2009 by Quantum Corporation (“Quantum” or the “Company”), a Delaware corporation (as amended and supplemented to date, the “Schedule TO”), in connection with Quantum’s offer to purchase for cash, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated March 27, 2009 (a copy of which was filed as exhibit (a)(1)(A) to the Schedule TO) (the “Offer to Purchase”), and the related Letter of Transmittal (a copy of which was filed as exhibit (a)(1)(B) to the Schedule TO), up to a maximum purchase amount of Quantum’s outstanding 4.375% Convertible Subordinated Notes Due 2010.

The Schedule TO is intended to satisfy the reporting requirements of Rule 13e-4(c)(2) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The information in the Offer to Purchase and the Letter of Transmittal is incorporated by reference in the Schedule TO to all of the applicable items in the Schedule TO, except that such information is hereby amended and supplemented to the extent specifically provided herein. All references herein to page numbers and sections in the Offer to Purchase and Letter of Transmittal refer to page numbers and sections in those documents as they were filed with the SEC via EDGAR as exhibits to the Schedule TO.

Items 1 and 4.

The Offer to Purchase, Letter of Transmittal and Items 1 and 4 of the Schedule TO, to the extent such Items incorporate by reference the information contained in the Offer to Purchase, are hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following language thereto:

“On April 28, 2009, the Company issued a press release announcing that it is increasing the purchase price for the Notes pursuant to the Offer to $740 in cash, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the payment date, for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes tendered and accepted for payment by Quantum. Quantum also announced a decrease in the aggregate principal amount of Notes it is offering to acquire pursuant to the Offer to $135 million (the “Maximum Purchase Amount”). Accordingly, all references in the Offer to Purchase, Letter of Transmittal and the Schedule TO to a purchase price of $700 per $1,000 or a Maximum Purchase Amount of $142 million shall instead be deemed to be references to a purchase price of $740 per $1,000 and a Maximum Purchase Amount of $135 million, respectively. A copy of the press release is attached to the Schedule TO (as amended) as Exhibit (a)(5)(C).”

 

Item 7. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

The Offer to Purchase and Item 7(a) of the Schedule TO, to the extent such Item incorporates by reference the information contained in the Offer to Purchase, are hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

On page 6 of the Offer to Purchase, the section entitled “Source and Amount of Funds” is hereby amended by deleting the first sentence of the first paragraph in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

“The maximum amount of funds required by us to purchase the Notes pursuant to the Offer is estimated to be approximately $99,900,000.”
