This Amendment No. 3 (this “
Amendment
”) amends
and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (the “
Schedule TO
”) filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the “
SEC
”) on May 17, 2017 by (i) Savaria (SC) Inc., a South Carolina corporation (“
Purchaser
”)
and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Savaria Corporation, an Alberta corporation (“
Savaria
”) and (ii)
Savaria. The Schedule TO relates to the tender offer for all of the outstanding shares of common stock, no par value (the “
Shares
”),
of Span-America Medical Systems, Inc., a South Carolina corporation (“
Span-America
”), at a price of $29.00 per
Share, net to the seller in cash, without interest, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase,
dated May 17, 2017 (the “
Offer to Purchase
”), and in the related Letter of Transmittal, copies of which were
filed with the Schedule TO as Exhibits (a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(B), respectively (which, together with any amendments or supplements
thereto, collectively constitute the “
Offer
”).
The information in the Offer to Purchase and the Letter of Transmittal
is incorporated in this Amendment by reference to all of the applicable items in the Schedule TO, except that such information
is amended and supplemented to the extent specifically provided in this Amendment No. 3. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise
defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Offer to Purchase or in the Schedule TO.
Items 1, 4 and 11.
Items 1, 4, and 11 of the Schedule TO are hereby amended and
supplemented by adding the following text thereto:
“At 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on June 15, 2017, the Offer
and withdrawal rights expired as scheduled. The Depositary advised Purchaser that as of the Expiration Date, 2,406,035 Shares (excluding
Shares with respect to which notices of guaranteed delivery were delivered but which Shares were not yet delivered) were validly
tendered and not validly withdrawn, representing approximately 87.0% of the Shares outstanding as of the Expiration Date. The
number of Shares validly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer satisfies the Minimum Condition. All conditions
to the Offer were satisfied, and the Offer was not extended. All Shares that were validly tendered and not validly withdrawn have
been accepted for purchase and will be promptly paid for by Purchaser.
Purchaser also exercised the Top-Up Option, pursuant to which
Span-America issued 1,290,626 Shares to Purchaser at a price per share equal to the Offer Price, which, together with the Shares
purchased in the Offer, represented more than 90% of the outstanding Shares (on a fully diluted basis).
As a result of (i) Purchaser’s acceptance of the Shares
tendered in the Offer and (ii) the issuance by Span-America of Shares to Purchaser pursuant to Purchaser’s exercise of the
Top-Up Option, Purchaser acquired a sufficient number of Shares to complete the Merger without a vote of the stockholders of Span-America
pursuant to the “short-form” merger provisions of the SCBCA. Accordingly, Savaria and Purchaser plan to effect the
Merger on June 16, 2017, pursuant to the “short-form” merger provisions of the SCBCA. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement,
in the Merger, each Share that was issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time (other than as described
in the Offer to Purchase) will be converted into the right to receive a cash amount equal to the Offer Price, without interest.
Upon the consummation of the Merger, Span-America will become
an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Savaria. Span-America will cease to be a publicly traded company on the NASDAQ, and Span-America
will no longer be subject to reporting requirements under the Exchange Act.
On June 16, 2017, Savaria issued a press release announcing
the expiration and results of the Offer. The full text of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit (a)(5)(B) and is incorporated
herein by reference.”
