INTRODUCTION

 

This Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 28, 2012, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed on July 13, 2012 (as amended and supplemented to date, the “Schedule TO”) by Aastrom Biosciences, Inc., a Michigan corporation (“Aastrom” or the “Company”), pursuant to Rule 13(e)-4 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, in connection with an offer to exchange (the “Exchange Offer”) any warrant (the “Warrants”) to purchase shares of common stock, no par value per share, of the Company issued in connection with the Company’s December 2010 public offering, that was tendered and accepted, for shares of the Company’s common stock.  Aastrom sought to exchange any and all outstanding Warrants in the Exchange Offer.

 

The Exchange Offer was made upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Company’s offer to exchange, dated June 28, 2012, as amended on July 13, 2012 (the “Exchange Offer Statement”), and in the related Exchange Offer materials which are filed as Exhibits (a)(1), (a)(2), (a)(3), (a)(4), (a)(5) and (d)(1) to the Schedule TO (which the Exchange Offer and related Exchange Offer materials, as amended or supplemented from time to time, collectively constitute the “Offer Materials”).

 

This Schedule TO is intended to satisfy the reporting requirements of Rule 13(c)-4 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  Information set forth in the Offer Materials is expressly incorporated in this Amendment No. 2 by reference in response to all of the applicable items in Schedule TO, except that such information is hereby amended and supplemented to the extent specifically provided herein.

 

This Amendment No. 2 is the final amendment to the Schedule TO and is being filed in satisfaction of the reporting requirements of Rule 13(e)-4(c)(4) under the Exchange Act.  Except as specifically amended by this Amendment No. 2, the Schedule TO remains in full force and effect.

 

Item 4.   Terms of the Transaction.

 

Item 4(a) of the Schedule TO, which incorporates by reference the information contained in the Offer Materials, is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following thereto:

 

“The Exchange Offer expired at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on July 27, 2012. Based on the final count, 2,025,234 Warrants, or approximately 87% of the 2,333,334 outstanding Warrants, were properly tendered and not withdrawn in the Exchange Offer.  Under the terms of the Exchange Offer, Aastrom accepted all tendered Warrants, and will issue an aggregate of approximately 1,012,615 shares of our common stock in exchange and $4.00 in cash for fractional shares.

 

On July 30, 2012, we issued a press release announcing the final results of the Exchange Offer, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit (a)(6) hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.”

 

Item 12.   Exhibits.

 

Item 12 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following thereto as Exhibit (a)(6):

 

“Press Release by Aastrom Biosciences, Inc. announcing the final results of the Exchange Offer dated July 30, 2012 (incorporated by reference to Exhibit 99.1 to the Company’s current report on Form 8-K filed on July 30, 2012).”
