SCHEDULE TO
This Amendment No. 2 amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO originally filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) by Amgen Inc., a Delaware corporation (Amgen or the Company), on November 8, 2011, in connection with the Companys offer to purchase up to $5 billion in value of shares of its common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the Shares), at a price not greater than $60.00 nor less than $54.00 per Share, to the seller in cash, less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest.
Only those items amended are reported in this Amendment No. 2. Except as specifically provided herein, the information contained in the Schedule TO remains unchanged and this Amendment No. 2 does not modify any of the information previously reported on the Schedule TO. You should read this Amendment No. 2 together with the Schedule TO, the Offer to Purchase dated November 8, 2011 and the related Letter of Transmittal.
ITEM 3. | IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND OF FILING PERSON |
Section 10 (Certain Information Concerning Us) of the Offer to Purchase is hereby amended by adding the following:
On November 15, 2011, Amgen USA Inc. (Amgen USA), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a seven-year Sourcing and Supply Agreement (the Agreement) with DaVita Inc. (DaVita) pursuant to which Amgen USA will supply, and DaVita will purchase, EPOGEN (Epoetin alfa) in amounts necessary to meet no less than 90% of DaVitas and its affiliates requirements for erythropoiesis stimulating agents used in providing dialysis services in the United States and Puerto Rico. The term of the Agreement commences January 1, 2012 and ends on December 31, 2018. The Agreement will replace the Dialysis Organization Agreement, effective January 1, 2011, between Amgen USA and DaVita that expires by its terms on December 31, 2011.
The Agreement, among other things, provides for discount pricing and rebates for EPOGEN. Some of the rebates are subject to various conditions including future pricing levels of EPOGEN by Amgen USA and data submission by DaVita. The Agreement may be terminated by either party before expiration of its term in the event of certain breaches of the Agreement by the other party.
