This Amendment No. 3 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 13, 2017, amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement filed on Schedule TO (as amended or supplemented, the “Schedule TO”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 12, 2017, by: (i) 3DS Acquisition 3 Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Purchaser”) and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Dassault Systemes Simulia Corp., a Rhode Island corporation (“Parent”), and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Dassault Systèmes S.E., a European Company incorporated in France (“Dassault Systèmes”); (ii) Parent; and (iii) Dassault Systèmes.  The Schedule TO relates to the offer by Purchaser to purchase all of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (each, a “Share” and collectively, the “Shares”) of Exa Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Exa”), at a price of $24.25 per Share, payable net to the holder thereof in cash, without interest, subject to any withholding of taxes required by applicable law, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the offer to purchase, dated October 12, 2017 (as it may be amended or supplemented, the “Offer to Purchase”), and the related letter of transmittal (as it may be amended or supplemented, the “Letter of Transmittal,” and, together with the Offer to Purchase, the “Offer”), copies of which are attached to the Schedule TO as Exhibits (a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(B), respectively.  The information set forth in the Offer to Purchase, including all schedules thereto, and the related Letter of Transmittal is incorporated herein by reference with respect to all of the applicable items in the Schedule TO, except that such information is hereby amended and supplemented to the extent provided herein.  All capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 3 without definition have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule TO.

 

Items 1, 4 and 11.  Summary Term Sheet; Terms of the Transaction; Additional Information.

 

The Offer to Purchase and Items 1, 4 and 11 of the Schedule TO, to the extent Items 1, 4 and 11 incorporate by reference the information contained in the Offer to Purchase, are hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following paragraphs thereto:

 

“On November 9, 2017, Parent, Purchaser and Exa, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Merger Agreement or the Offer to Purchase, agreed that the Offer would be extended to 12:00 midnight (the end of the day), New York City time, on Thursday, November 16, 2017 unless further extended.  The extension allows for the expiration of the four (4)-week statutory waiting period contemplated by Sections 11(1) or 11(1a) of the KartG in Austria, which is scheduled to expire no later than midnight (the end of the day) Central European Time on Thursday, November 16, 2017.

 

On November 10, 2017, Dassault, on behalf of Parent and Purchaser, announced an extension of the Expiration Date of the Offer to 12:00 midnight (the end of the day), New York City time, on Thursday, November 16, 2017.  The Offer was previously scheduled to expire at 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on November 9, 2017.  The Depositary has advised the Purchaser that, as of 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on November 9, 2017, 10,900,791 Shares were tendered pursuant to the Offer, which represented approximately 62% of the Fully Diluted Shares (excluding from the number of tendered Shares, but not from the outstanding Shares, Shares tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures that have not yet been ‘‘received’’ (as such term is defined in Section 251(h)(6)(f) of the DGCL)).  In addition, as of such time, Notices of Guaranteed Delivery had been delivered for 81,097 Shares, which, when combined with the Shares tendered and not properly withdrawn from the Offer equal approximately 63% of the Fully Diluted Shares.

 

Parent and the Purchaser expect the Offer will be consummated promptly following the Expiration Date (as extended hereby), subject to the satisfaction of the remaining closing conditions.

 

The full text of the press release announcing the extension is attached as Exhibit (a)(5)(E) to the Schedule TO and is incorporated herein by reference.”

 

The Offer to Purchase and Item 11 of the Schedule TO, to the extent Item 11 incorporates by reference the information contained in the Offer to Purchase, are hereby amended and supplemented as set forth below:

 

The information set forth in Section 16. “Legal Matters; Required Regulatory Approvals” is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following to the end of the second paragraph under the subsection thereunder entitled “Antitrust Compliance”:

Item 12.  Exhibits.

 

Item 12 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following exhibit:
