This Amendment No. 2 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Statement”) initially filed on February 17, 2023 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by AlerisLife Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ALR” or the “Company”), the issuer of the common stock that is the subject of the Rule 13e-3 transaction described below, and relates to the offer by ABP Acquisition 2 LLC, a Maryland limited liability company (“Purchaser”) and a wholly owned subsidiary of ABP Acquisition LLC (“ABP”), to purchase all of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Shares”), of ALR (other than any Shares held by ABP, Purchaser or any other direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of ABP or any person that owns, directly or indirectly, all of the outstanding equity interests of Purchaser) at a price of $1.31 per Share, net to the seller of such Shares in cash, without interest and subject to any withholding of taxes required by applicable law (the “Offer”). The Offer is made pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of February 2, 2023 (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Merger Agreement”), among ALR, Purchaser and ABP. The Merger Agreement provides that, among other things, following the consummation of the Offer and subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, Purchaser will merge with and into the Company, with the Company being the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). The terms of the Offer, and the conditions to which it is subject, are set forth in the combined Tender Offer Statement and Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement filed under cover of Schedule TO by Purchaser and ABP on February 17, 2023 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Schedule TO”), which contains as exhibits an Offer to Purchase dated February 17, 2023 (the “Offer to Purchase”), and the related Letter of Transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal,” which together with the Offer to Purchase, as each of them may be amended or supplemented from time to time, contain the terms of the Offer). In response to the Offer, the Company filed a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 on February 17, 2023 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Schedule 14D-9”).

 

The information in the Statement is incorporated into this Amendment by reference to all of the applicable items in the Statement, except that such information is hereby amended and supplemented to the extent provided in this Amendment.
