Item 8 of the Schedule 14D-9 is hereby amended and supplemented by inserting the disclosure set forth below immediately after the end of Item 8:
(i) Completion of the Offer
The Offer and withdrawal rights expired as scheduled at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Tuesday, March 30, 2021. American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, in its capacity as depositary and paying agent for the Offer (the Depositary) has advised Parent and Purchaser that, as of such time, a total of 29,423,436 Shares (excluding Shares tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures that have not yet been delivered in satisfaction of such guarantee in accordance with Section 251(h) of the DGCL) were validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer prior to the Expiration Date, representing approximately 74% of the outstanding Shares as of the Expiration Date. In addition, the Depositary has advised Parent and Purchaser that Notices of Guaranteed Delivery have been delivered with respect to 4,937,092 additional Shares prior to the Expiration Date, representing approximately 12% of the outstanding Shares as of the Expiration Date.
The number of Shares validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer (excluding Shares tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures that have not yet been delivered in satisfaction of such guarantee in accordance with Section 251(h) of the DGCL) satisfies the Minimum Condition, and all other conditions to the Offer were satisfied or (to the extent waivable) waived. Promptly after the Expiration Date, all Shares that were validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer have been accepted for payment by Purchaser. Purchaser will promptly pay for all such Shares in accordance with the terms of the Offer.
As a result of its acceptance for payment of the Shares validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer, Purchaser intends to effect the closing of the Merger on April 1, 2021, without a vote of the stockholders of Synacor in accordance with Section 251(h) of the DGCL. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Shares (i) irrevocably accepted for payment by Purchaser in the Offer, (ii) owned by Parent, Purchaser or the Company or any direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent or the Company, including all Shares held by the Company as treasury stock, or (iii) Shares for which appraisal rights have been properly demanded in accordance with the DGCL) will be cancelled and automatically converted into the right to receive the Offer Price in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes.
