This Amendment No. 6 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 of Symmetricom, Inc. (the “Company”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 28, 2013 (as amended and supplemented from time to time, the “Schedule 14D-9”). The Schedule 14D-9 relates to the tender offer by PETT Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Purchaser”) and a wholly owned subsidiary of Microsemi Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), to purchase any and all of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (“Shares”), at a purchase price of $7.18 per Share, net to the selling stockholder in cash, without interest and less any required withholding taxes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated October 28, 2013 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Offer to Purchase”), and in the related Letter of Transmittal (which, together with the Offer to Purchase, as each may be amended or supplemented from time to time, constitute the “Offer”), copies of which are annexed to and filed with the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Schedule TO”) filed by Parent and Purchaser with the SEC on October 28, 2013.

 

Except as otherwise set forth below, the information set forth in the Schedule 14D-9 remains unchanged and is incorporated by reference as relevant to the items in this Amendment.  Capitalized terms used and not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Schedule 14D-9.  This Amendment is being filed to reflect certain updates as reflected below.

 

Item 8.                          Additional Information.
