Business Wire
American Industrial Partners has announced that Safari Merger
Subsidiary, Inc. (“Purchaser”), an affiliate of American Industrial
Partners, has extended until 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on Friday,
March 19, 2021 the expiration time for its previously announced
cash tender offer to purchase all of the outstanding shares of
common stock (the “Shares”) of SEACOR Holdings Inc. (NYSE: CKH)
(“SEACOR”) at a price of $41.50 per share.
The tender offer, which was previously scheduled to expire at
5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on March 12, 2021, was extended to allow
additional time to meet the minimum tender condition that shares
actually delivered (excluding shares tendered pursuant to
guaranteed delivery procedures) represent at least 66 2/3% of all
outstanding Shares.
Purchaser is ready to close the transaction and, assuming that
66 2/3% of outstanding Shares are tendered, Purchaser expects that
closing and payment for the Shares will occur promptly after the
expiration date of March 19, 2021.
American Industrial Partners and Purchaser are pleased with the
significantly increased number of Shares that were tendered as of
last Friday, March 12, 2021, providing good momentum to reach the
minimum tender condition and close the transaction.
American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, the depository
for the tender offer, has indicated that, as of the prior
expiration time, a total of approximately 7,955,148 Shares,
representing approximately 38.05% of the outstanding Shares,
had been validly tendered. The amount tendered includes
approximately 3,445,517 Shares delivered pursuant to guaranteed
delivery procedures that had been validly tendered pursuant to the
tender offer.
Shareholders are reminded that Shares tendered by guaranteed
delivery do not count toward
achieving the 66 2/3% minimum tender condition. Shareholders who
have already tendered their Shares do not have to re-tender their
Shares or take any other action as a result of the extension of the
tender offer.
The tender offer is being made pursuant to the tender offer
materials (including an Offer to Purchase, a related Letter of
Transmittal and certain other offer documents) in the Tender Offer
Statement on Schedule TO (together with any amendments or
supplements thereto, the “Tender Offer Statement”) filed by
Purchaser and its affiliates with the United States Securities and
Exchange Commission on December 18, 2020, as amended.
