Item 4 of the Original 13D is hereby amended and supplemented to add the following at the end thereof:
Consummation of the Merger
On November 8, 2019, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into Genomic Health, with Genomic Health continuing as the surviving corporation of the Merger. As a result of the Merger, Genomic Health has become a wholly owned subsidiary of Exact Sciences and at the Effective Time, each share of Genomic Health Common Stock, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (except for shares held by a holder who properly exercised and perfected appraisal rights under Delaware law) was converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, less any applicable withholding taxes.
As of the Effective Time, each outstanding Genomic Health stock option granted to a non-employee director of Genomic Health, whether or not vested, and each vested Genomic Health stock option was canceled in exchange for the right to receive the Merger Consideration in an amount based on the spread between the Merger Consideration and the per share exercise price of such Genomic Health stock option, less applicable tax withholding. In addition, as of the Effective Time, each outstanding Genomic Health restricted stock unit granted to a non-employee director of Genomic Health was canceled in exchange for the right to receive the Merger Consideration in respect of each share of Genomic Health Common Stock subject to such award. Each outstanding unvested Genomic Health stock option and outstanding Genomic Health restricted stock unit (other than any stock options or restricted stock units held by non-employee directors) was assumed by Exact Sciences and converted into a corresponding award of Exact Sciences as of the Effective Time, in each case, as calculated in accordance with the formula set forth in the Merger Agreement and after appropriate adjustments to reflect the consummation of the Merger and the terms and conditions applicable to such awards immediately prior to the Effective Time.
Upon the Effective Time, each of the Voting Agreements terminated in accordance with its express terms.
In accordance with the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time all members of the board of directors of Genomic Health were replaced by the directors of Merger Sub. The articles of incorporation of Genomic Health were amended as set forth in Exhibit B to the Merger Agreement, and the bylaws of Genomic Health were amended to be the bylaws of Merger Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time (except as to the name of Genomic Health).
