This Amendment No. 6 (this “
Amendment No. 6
”) amends and
supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (together with any amendments and supplements thereto, the “
Schedule TO
”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “
SEC
”) on April 26, 2011,
as amended by the Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule TO filed on May 3, 2011, Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule TO filed on May 5, 2011, Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule TO filed on May 18, 2011, Amendment No. 4 to the
Schedule TO filed on May 20, 2011 and Amendment No. 5 to the Schedule TO filed on May 31, 2011 and is filed by (i) Nomac Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“
Purchaser
”) and an indirect wholly owned
subsidiary of Chesapeake Energy Corporation, an Oklahoma corporation (“
Chesapeake
”), and (ii) Chesapeake. The Schedule TO relates to the tender offer by Purchaser and Chesapeake to purchase all outstanding shares of common
stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “
Bronco shares
”), of Bronco Drilling Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“
Bronco
”), at $11.00 per share in cash, without interest, upon the terms and subject to the
conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated April 26, 2011 (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, collectively constitute the “
offer
”). The offer is made pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 14, 2011 and amended as of May 17,
2011 (as so amended, the “
merger agreement
”), by and among Chesapeake, Purchaser and Bronco.
The information
in the Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal is incorporated in this Amendment No. 6 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. 6. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Amendment No. 6 shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Offer to Purchase or in the Schedule TO.
Items 1, 4, 8 and 11.
Summary Term Sheet; Terms of the Transaction; Interest in Securities of the Subject Company; Additional
Information.
Items 1, 4, 8 and 11 of the Schedule TO are hereby amended and supplemented by adding the
following text thereto:
“The offer expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on Friday, June 3, 2011. Based on
preliminary information provided by the Depositary, 24,959,224 Bronco shares were validly tendered and not withdrawn in the offer (including 691,967 Bronco shares that were tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures), representing
approximately 86.7% of the outstanding Bronco shares (the percentage is 84.3% if guaranteed delivery Bronco shares are not taken into account). Purchaser accepted for payment all Bronco shares validly tendered in the Offer in accordance with the
terms of the offer and will promptly pay for such Bronco shares.
Purchaser exercised its Top-Up Option pursuant to the terms
of the merger agreement to acquire 63,550,899 newly issued Bronco shares at a purchase price per share equal to the offer price.
Following the expiration of the offer and the exercise of the Top-Up Option, Purchaser owned more than 90% of the outstanding Bronco shares (excluding 691,967 Bronco shares tendered through guaranteed
delivery procedures and not yet delivered). In accordance with the merger agreement and the DGCL’s “short-form” merger statute, Chesapeake intends to complete the acquisition of Bronco by means of a merger of Purchaser with and into
Bronco, with Bronco continuing as the surviving corporation and as an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Chesapeake. At the effective time of the merger, each Bronco share outstanding (other than Bronco shares owned by Bronco, Chesapeake,
Purchaser, or any wholly owned subsidiary of Bronco, Chesapeake or Purchaser, or held by stockholders who properly demand and perfect appraisal rights under the DGCL) will be converted into the right to receive $11.00, in cash, without interest and
less any required withholding taxes. Following the merger, the Bronco shares will no longer be listed on NASDAQ.
On
June 6, 2011, Chesapeake issued a press release announcing the results and expiration of the offer. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit (a)(5)(S), and the information set forth in the press release is incorporated herein
by reference.”
