This Amendment No. 5 amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement and Rule 13e–3 Transaction Statement filed under cover of Schedule TO on November 5, 2009 (as amended and supplemented, this “Schedule TO”) by Overseas Shipholding Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and OSG Bulk Ships, Inc., a New York corporation (“OSG Bulk” and, together with Parent, “OSG”).  This Schedule TO relates to the offer by OSG Bulk to purchase common units (“Units”) of OSG America L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated November 5, 2009 (the “Offer to Purchase”) and in the related Letter of Transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal” and, together with the Offer to Purchase, as each may be supplemented or amended from time to time, the “Offer”).

 

All capitalized terms used but not defined in this Schedule TO have the meanings ascribed to them in the Offer to Purchase.

 

The items of this Schedule TO set forth below are hereby further amended and supplemented as follows:

 

Items 1 through 9, 11 and 13.

 

The subsequent offering period expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on December 16, 2009. According to BNY Mellon Shareholder Services, the Depositary for the Offer, a total of approximately 267,419 Units were validly tendered in the subsequent offering period.  Thus, a total of 13,924,611 Units, or 92.8%, of the Units outstanding are now owned by OSG Bulk. OSG Bulk has accepted for payment all Units that were validly tendered in the Offer and has made payment to the Depositary for the accepted Units in accordance with the terms of the Offer.

 

On December 17, 2009, OSG issued a press release to announce that it has completed, pursuant to Section 15.01 of the amended and restated limited partnership agreement of the Partnership, its purchase of all of the remaining Units that were not tendered in the Offer (the “Repurchase Right”).  As a result of the successful consummation of the Offer and the exercise of the Repurchase Right, OSG owns all of the economic interests of the Partnership and will be entitled to all of the benefits resulting from those interests.  In addition, the Units will cease to be traded on the New York Stock Exchange.
