The Tender Offer and the Merger Sample Clauses

The Tender Offer and the Merger. You have the ability to sell your shares to Philips in a process known as a “tender offer” (“Tender Offer”). In the Tender Offer, each Respironics shareholder can sell their Respironics shares to Philips at a price of $66.00 per share, minus any applicable withholding taxes (the “Offer Price”). The Tender Offer commenced on January 3, 2008 and is scheduled to expire on February 1, 2008, but may be extended by Philips beyond that date. If you elect not to sell your Respironics shares in the Tender Offer and more than 50% of the total outstanding shares of stock of Respironics are sold to Philips by other shareholders in the Tender Offer, your Respironics shares will automatically be cashed out in a merger that will follow the completion of the Tender Offer. Whether you tender your Respironics shares in the Tender Offer or wait and have your Respironics shares cashed out in the subsequent merger, you will receive the same price for your Respironics shares – the Offer Price. The Respironics Board of Directors has unanimously approved the acquisition (including both the Tender Offer and the merger) and recommends that Respironics shareholders tender their Respironics shares to Philips in the Tender Offer.
