This statement constitutes (a) Amendment No. 3 (the “Amendment”) amending and supplementing the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO, filed initially on January 23, 2003, by Neon Acquisition Corporation (“Purchaser”), a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Synopsys, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Synopsys”), as amended by Amendment No. 1, dated February 5, 2003, and Amendment No. 2, dated February 13, 2003 (the “Schedule TO”), and (b) Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D initially filed on January 22, 2003 by Synopsys (the “Schedule 13D”), in each case relating to the offer to purchase by Purchaser all the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock” or the “Shares”), of Numerical Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), at a purchase price of $7.00 per Share, net to the seller in cash, without interest thereon and less any required withholding taxes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated January 23, 2003, as amended (the “Offer to Purchase”), and in the related Letter of Transmittal (which, together with any amendments or supplements thereto, collectively constitute the “Offer”), which were annexed to and filed with the Schedule TO as Exhibits (a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(B), respectively. The Schedule TO was filed on behalf of Purchaser and Synopsys. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein which are defined in the Offer to Purchase or the Schedule 13D, as the case may be, have the respective meanings given to them therein.

 

Schedule TO

 

 

Items 1-11.

 

The Offer to Purchase is hereby amended to replace the third sentence in the eighth paragraph of the section entitled “INTRODUCTION” with the following:

 

“Synopsys owns 40,562 Shares as a result of its exercise of the Exchangeable Shares it owned.”

 

Item 11 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

“On February 21, 2003, Synopsys issued a press release announcing that Purchaser had extended the Offer, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, as amended, until 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Monday, February 24, 2003. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit (a)(1)(K) and is incorporated herein by reference. The Offer had been previously scheduled to expire at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Thursday, February 20, 2003. Computershare Trust Company of New York, the depositary for the Offer (the “Depositary”), has advised Synopsys and Purchaser that, as of such time, an aggregate of approximately 28,993,133 Shares were tendered to Purchaser pursuant to the Offer, including approximately 9,726,820 Shares delivered through notices of guaranteed delivery, representing approximately 85% of the outstanding Shares.

 

The expiration date of the Offer has been extended because the waiting period applicable to the pre-merger notification filing made by Synopsys under the HSR Act has not yet expired or been terminated. As previously announced, the waiting period is scheduled to expire at 11:59 P.M. on Monday, February 24, 2003, unless such period is earlier terminated or extended by the FTC and the Antitrust Division. The Offer remains subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, as amended, and other related materials filed by Synopsys and Purchaser with the Commission.”
