This Amendment No. 1 to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 21, 2014 (the “Schedule TO”) by Thompson Creek Metals Company Inc., a corporation organized as a corporation under the laws of Ontario, Canada and continued under the laws of British Columbia, Canada (the “Company”), in relation to its offer to exchange (the “Exchange Offer”) a number of shares of its common stock equal to (i) 5.3879 shares plus (ii) a number of shares of its common stock equal to $1 divided by the “Weighted Average Price” of the Company’s common stock, for each validly tendered and accepted unit of the Company’s outstanding 6.50% Tangible Equity Units (the “Exchange Consideration”), on the terms and subject to the conditions described in the Offer to Exchange, dated May 21, 2014 (the “Offer to Exchange”), and in the related Letter of Transmittal, which, as amended or supplemented from time to time, together constitute the Exchange Offer.  The “Weighted Average Price” of the Company’s common stock will be calculated pursuant to the procedure set forth in the Offer to Exchange.  The Offer to Exchange and the accompanying Letter of Transmittal and Notice of Guaranteed Delivery were previously filed as Exhibit (a)(1) to the Schedule TO and an amended Offer to Exchange and the accompanying amended Letter of Transmittal and Notice of Guaranteed Delivery are being refiled as Exhibit (a)(1) to this Amendment No. 1.  The Exchange Offer is being made by the Company pursuant to an exemption from registration under Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

The Schedule TO was filed in satisfaction of the reporting requirements of Rule 13e-4 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and this Amendment No. 1 to Schedule TO is being filed to amend the Offer to Exchange to clarify that holders whose units of TMEDS are validly tendered and accepted pursuant to the Exchange Offer will receive the accrued portion of the full quarterly cash installment payment that has accrued from May 15, 2014 to the settlement date of the Exchange Offer and that is payable in respect of the amortizing note component of each TMEDS unit.  This cash installment payment is in addition to the Exchange Consideration and consists of both a payment of accrued interest and a partial repayment of principal in respect of the amortizing notes component of each TMEDS unit.  Previously, the Offer to Exchange stated that holders would receive only accrued and unpaid interest on each amortizing note component.

 

The information set forth in the revised Offer to Exchange filed herewith, including the accompanying Letter of Transmittal attached as Annex A thereto, and Notice of Guaranteed Delivery attached as Annex B thereto, is incorporated in this Amendment No. 1 by reference to all of the applicable items in the Schedule TO, except that such information is hereby amended and supplemented to the extent specifically provided herein.

 

Item 4. Terms of the Transaction.

 

Item 4 of Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

The Offer to Exchange is amended to clarify that holders whose units of TMEDS are validly tendered and accepted for exchange pursuant to the Exchange Offer will receive the accrued portion of the full quarterly cash installment payment that has accrued from May 15, 2014 to the settlement date of the Exchange Offer and that is payable in respect of the amortizing note component of each TMEDS unit.  This cash installment payment is in addition to the Exchange Consideration and consists of both payment of accrued interest and a partial repayment of principal in respect of the amortizing notes component of each TMEDS unit.  Previously, the Offer to Exchange stated that holders would receive only accrued interest on each amortizing note component.

 

Item 12. Exhibits.

 

Item 12 of Schedule TO is hereby amended by replacing the Offer to Exchange initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 21, 2014 with the following:

 

(a)(1)  Revised Offer to Exchange, dated May 21, 2014, and related Letter of Transmittal and Notice of Guaranteed Delivery.
