This Amendment No. 11 to Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO amends and supplements
the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 21, 2012 (together with any amendments and supplements thereto, the Schedule TO) by Cypress Semiconductor Corporation, a Delaware
corporation (Cypress), and Rain Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Cypress (Purchaser). The Schedule TO relates to the offer by Purchaser to purchase all outstanding shares of common
stock, par value $0.01 per share (together with the associated preferred stock purchase rights), of Ramtron International Corporation, a Delaware corporation (Ramtron), at $3.10 per share, net to the seller in cash (less any applicable
withholding taxes and without interest), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated June 21, 2012 (together with any amendments and supplements thereto, including the Amendment and Supplement to the
Offer to Purchase dated September 25, 2012, the Offer to Purchase), and in the related Letter of Transmittal (which, together with any amendments and supplements thereto, collectively constitute the Offer).
Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined have the meaning given to them in the Offer to Purchase.
Items 1 through 9, and Item 11.
The Offer to Purchase and Items 1 through 9 and Item 11 of the Schedule TO, to the extent that such items incorporate by reference the information contained in the Offer to Purchase, are hereby
amended and supplemented as follows:
The subsequent offering period for the Offer expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on
Wednesday, October 17, 2012. The Depositary has advised Cypress and Purchaser that 25,912,939 Shares were tendered and not withdrawn during the Offer and the subsequent offering period (including Shares that were tendered by guaranteed delivery
procedures and subsequently delivered) representing, together with Shares beneficially owned by Cypress, approximately 78% of the Shares outstanding. Purchaser accepted for payment and purchased all Shares validly tendered in the Offer and the
subsequent offering period and not validly withdrawn.
Purchaser will acquire all of the remaining outstanding Shares by means
of a merger pursuant to the DGCL. Because Purchaser owns less than 90% of the issued and outstanding Shares, the short-form merger provisions of the DGCL are not available for use in the Merger. Instead, the Merger will be consummated following a
special meeting of Ramtrons stockholders. Cypress has sufficient voting power to approve the Merger at that meeting without the affirmative vote of any other Ramtron stockholder. Ramtron will file a preliminary proxy statement in connection
with the Merger with the SEC shortly, and Cypress currently expects that the Merger will be completed in the fourth quarter of 2012.
At the effective time of the Merger, each Share then outstanding (other than Shares held in the treasury of Ramtron or owned by Purchaser, Cypress or any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of
Cypress or Ramtron and other than Shares held by Ramtron stockholders who shall have neither voted in favor of the Merger nor consented thereto in writing and who shall have properly and validly exercised such stockholders statutory rights of
appraisal in respect of such Shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL) shall be cancelled and extinguished and automatically converted into the right to receive $3.10 per Share, net to the seller in cash (less any applicable
withholding taxes and without interest), the same amount offered in the initial offering period. Information regarding the Merger will be mailed to Ramtron stockholders who did not tender their Shares in the Offer, and, following the consummation of
the Merger, instructions will be mailed to Ramtron stockholders
outlining the steps to be taken to obtain the merger consideration. After the Merger, Ramtron will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Cypress, and the Shares will cease to be traded on the
NASDAQ Global Market. Until that time, the Shares will continue to trade.
The full text of the press release issued by Cypress
announcing the expiration of the subsequent offering period, successful completion of the Offer and its intention to consummate the Merger is filed as Exhibit (a)(5)(K) hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 12.
Item 12 of
the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following text thereto:
