SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Integrated Device Technology, Inc. (“IDT”; NASDAQ:IDTI) announced today that its tender offer by its wholly-owned subsidiary, Glider Merger Sub, Inc. (“Purchaser”), to purchase all outstanding stock of GigPeak, Inc. (“GigPeak”; NYSE MKT: GIG) at an offer price of $3.08 expired as scheduled at one minute following 11:59 P.M. (12:00 midnight) New York City time, on Monday, April 3, 2017. The tender offer was made pursuant to an Offer to Purchase, dated March 7, 2017, and in connection with the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated February 13, 2017, among IDT, Purchaser and GigPeak (the “Merger Agreement”), which IDT and GigPeak previously announced on February 13, 2017.
American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, the depositary for the tender offer, has advised IDT that, as of the expiration of the tender offer, a total of 54,454,085 shares of GigPeak’s common stock were validly tendered in the tender offer representing approximately 80.42% of GigPeak’s then-outstanding shares. The Purchaser has accepted for payment all shares that were validly tendered prior to expiration of the tender offer, and payment for such shares will be made promptly, in accordance with the terms of the tender offer.
IDT intends to effect the merger of the Purchaser with and into GigPeak, with GigPeak surviving as an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of IDT, as soon as practicable, in accordance with the Merger Agreement. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each share of capital stock of GigPeak issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger (other than shares (i) that are owned by or held in the treasury of GigPeak, or owned by IDT or any direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of IDT or GigPeak or (ii) in respect of which appraisal rights were perfected in accordance with Section 262 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware) not validly tendered and purchased in the tender offer will be converted into the right to receive the same per-share price paid in the tender offer, without interest, subject to any withholding of taxes required by applicable law.
