Merge Healthcare Incorporated (NASDAQ:MRGE) (“Merge Healthcare”)
and AMICAS, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMCS) (“AMICAS”) today announced the
expiration of the tender offer (the “Offer”) for all of the
outstanding shares of AMICAS’ common stock by Project Ready Corp.,
a wholly-owned subsidiary of Merge Healthcare (“Merger Sub”). The
Offer expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City, New York time, on
Friday, April 23, 2010.
At the time of expiration, Merge Healthcare was notified by
StockTrans, Inc., the depositary for the Offer, that AMICAS’
stockholders had validly tendered and not withdrawn a total of
33,995,414 Shares, which represents approximately 91.63% of the
outstanding Shares. Merger Sub has accepted, for payment, all
shares that were validly tendered in accordance with the terms of
the Offer. Merge expects to complete the transaction on or around
April 28, 2010.
Merger Sub intends to acquire all of the remaining outstanding
AMICAS stock as soon as practicable by means of a short-form merger
and without the need for an AMICAS shareholder meeting. Upon
completion of the merger, the remaining outstanding shares of
AMICAS common stock will be converted into the right to receive the
offer price of $6.05 in cash, without interest (other than those
shares of AMICAS common stock for which appraisal rights are
properly exercised). Upon completion of the merger, AMICAS will be
a wholly-owned subsidiary of Merge Healthcare and will no longer be
traded on the NASDAQ Global Market.
