Subject to the terms and conditions of the Exchange Offer, Trans-Lux will issue up to $12,309,000 principal amount of 8 1/4 % Notes in exchange for up to $12,309,000 principal amount of the 7 1/2 % Notes to the extent such 7 1/2 % Notes are properly tendered and not withdrawn prior to the expiration of the Exchange Offer. Trans-Lux reserves the right to extend or terminate the Exchange Offer, if the conditions set forth in the section of the Offering Circular (as defined below) entitled "The Exchange Offer-Conditions of the Exchange Offer" are not satisfied, and to otherwise amend the Exchange Offer in any respect. The Exchange Offer is open to all holders of 7 1/2 % Notes, and is subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Offering Circular, dated February 6, 2006, (the "Offering Circular") and in the related Letter of Transmittal (the "Letter of Transmittal") (which, as either may be amended or supplemented from time to time, together constitute the "Disclosure Documents"). Subject to applicable securities laws and the terms set forth in the Offering Circular, Trans-Lux reserves the right to waive any and all conditions to the Exchange Offer. The Offering Circular and the Letter of Transmittal were attached to Schedules TO and 13E-3 as originally filed as Exhibits (a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(B), respectively. This amendment to joint Schedule TO and Schedule 13E-3 is intended to satisfy the requirements of Rules 13E-3 and 13e-4 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Trans-Lux has extended the period of time for which the Exchange Offer is open to 5:00 P.M. New York City time on March 13, 2006. The Exchange Offer was originally scheduled to expire today, March 6, 2006 at 5:00 P.M. New York City time. All information in the Disclosure Documents, including all schedules and annexes, is hereby expressly incorporated by reference in answer to all items in this Schedule TO, except as otherwise set forth below. This Schedule TO is combined with Schedule 13E-3 since the transaction might be deemed a "going private" transaction. Where items under Schedule 13E-3 are not part of Schedule TO, they are listed at the end of this Schedule. Where the same item is covered by both schedules, the Schedule 13E-3 reference is below the Schedule TO reference. Items 1-6 are numbered the same in both schedules. This amendment amends Items 1, 4, 6 and 12 of Schedule TO and Items 1, 4, 6 and 16 of Schedule 13E-3. The text of a press release dated March 6, 2006 by Trans-Lux announcing the extension of the Exchange Offer is filed as Exhibit (a)(5)(C) herewith and is incorporated by reference. ITEM 12. EXHIBITS. (Item 16 Schedule 13E-3) (a)(5)(C) Press Release dated March 6, 2006 filed herewith.
