Item 1. Description of Registrants Securities to be Registered.
Techwell, Inc. (Techwell) hereby amends, by supplementing with the information set forth below, its Form 8-A initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 5, 2009:
On March 22, 2010, Techwell entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement) with Intersil Corporation (Parent) and Navajo Merger Sub, Inc., an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (Purchaser), pursuant to which Purchaser has agreed, subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, to commence a cash tender offer to acquire all shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Techwell (Techwell Common Stock) that are outstanding and the associated preferred stock purchase rights (the Techwell Rights) issued in connection with and subject to the Rights Agreement (the Rights Agreement), dated August 4, 2009, between Techwell and Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (which Techwell Rights, together with the shares of the Techwell Common Stock are herein referred to as the Shares ), at a purchase price of $18.50 per Share (the Offer). As soon as practicable following the completion of the Offer, Purchaser will merge with and into Techwell (the Merger). Following the consummation of the Merger, Techwell will be a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent.
On March 22, 2010, Techwell entered into an Amendment to Rights Agreement (the Amendment) with the purpose and intent of exempting from the Rights Agreement the Offer and the Merger as well as the other transactions and arrangements contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the Tender and Voting Agreements by and between the directors and certain entities affiliated with TCV IV, L.P., Purchaser, Parent and Techwell (the Tender Agreements). Pursuant to the Amendment, (i) none of Parent or Purchaser or any of their respective affiliates or associates is deemed to be an Acquiring Person for purposes of the Rights Agreement by virtue of the Merger Agreement, the Offer, the Merger, the Tender Agreements, the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or a public announcement of any of the foregoing (collectively, the Exempt Events), (ii) none of a Distribution Date, Stock Acquisition Date or Triggering Event shall be deemed to have occurred for purposes of the Rights Agreement by virtue of or as a result of the Exempt Events, (iii) Sections 11 and 13 of the Rights Agreement shall not apply to any Exempt Event, and no Exempt Event shall cause the Rights to be adjusted or exercisable as a result thereof, and (iv) the Rights Agreement will terminate and the Techwell Rights will expire immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger (as defined in the Merger Agreement).
The foregoing description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment which is filed as Exhibit 4.2 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
