CALCULATION OF FILING FEE
Transaction Valuation* | Amount of Filing Fee** | |
$372,941,310.66 |
$43,223.90 |
* | Estimated for purposes of calculating the filing fee only. The transaction value was determined by multiplying (a) $10.50, the tender offer price, by (b) the sum of (i) 33,540,415 shares of Everyday Health, Inc.s (Everyday Health) common stock issued and outstanding as of the close of business on October 20, 2016, (ii) 3,172,455, the number of shares of Everyday Health common stock subject to issuance pursuant to options to purchase shares of Everyday Health common stock that are expected to be vested upon consummation of the tender offer with an exercise price less than $10.50, (iii) 196,000, the number of shares of Everyday Health common stock estimated to be subject to outstanding purchase rights under Everyday Healths employee stock purchase plan as of the close of business on October 20, 2016, and (iv) 889,892, the number of shares of Everyday Health common stock subject to issuance pursuant to Everyday Healths restricted stock units that are expected to be vested upon the consummation of the tender offer. The calculation of the filing fee is based on information provided by Everyday Health as of October 20, 2016. This is the most recent practicable date. If the offer is extended, the transaction value may be adjusted accordingly for purposes of calculating the amount of the filing fee. |

This Amendment No. 2 (this Amendment) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (as amended and together with any subsequent amendments and supplements thereto, the Schedule TO), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on November 2, 2016 by Project Echo Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the Purchaser), a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Ziff Davis, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (Parent) and a wholly-owned subsidiary of j2 Global, Inc., a Delaware corporation (j2). The Schedule TO relates to the offer by the Purchaser to purchase all of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the Shares), of Everyday Health, Inc., a Delaware corporation (Everyday Health), at a purchase price of $10.50 per share, net to the seller in cash, without interest, subject to any withholding of taxes required by applicable law, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the offer to purchase dated November 2, 2016 (the Offer to Purchase), and in the related letter of transmittal (the Letter of Transmittal), copies of which are filed herewith as Exhibits (a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(B), respectively, which Offer to Purchase and Letter of Transmittal, together with any amendments or supplements thereto, collectively constitute the Offer.
The information in the Offer to Purchase and the Letter of Transmittal is incorporated in this Amendment by reference to all of the applicable items in the Schedule TO, except that such information is amended and supplemented to the extent specifically provided in this Amendment. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Offer to Purchase or in the Schedule TO, as applicable.
Amendments to the Offer to Purchase
Item 11. | Additional Information. |
Item 11 of the Schedule TO and the disclosure under Section 17 Legal Proceedings of the Offer to Purchase are hereby amended and supplemented by replacing the disclosure contained in such Section 17 in its entirety with the following:
Between November 11, 2016 and November 18, 2016, four putative class action lawsuits were filed on behalf of the public stockholders of Everyday Health (captioned Means v. Everyday Health, Inc., et al., No. 1:16-cv-08768; Jordan v. Everyday Health, Inc., et al., No. 1:16-cv-08836; Hanson v. Everyday Health, Inc., et al., No. 1:16-cv-08847; and Ebbs v. Everyday Health, Inc., et al., No. 1:16-cv-08982) in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against Everyday Health, members of the Everyday Health Board (the Individual Defendants) and, in one case, Parent, Purchaser and j2. The complaints generally allege that the defendants violated Section 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), by issuing a Schedule 14D-9 that was materially misleading and omitted material facts related to, including, among other things, background of the proposed Transactions, data and inputs underlying the financial valuation exercises that support the opinion provided by Qatalyst Partners, and Everyday Healths financial projections relied upon by Qatalyst Partners. The complaints also allege that the Individual Defendants violated Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act, as controlling persons who had the ability to prevent the Schedule 14D-9 from being materially false and misleading. In addition, one complaint alleges that the Individual Defendants violated their fiduciary duties of care, loyalty, good faith and candor owed to Everyday Health stockholders by, among other things, failing to take reasonable steps to obtain or ensure that Everyday Health stockholders receive adequate consideration for their stock, agreeing to restrictive deal protection devices that allegedly deter other suitors from making a superior bid for Everyday Health and causing an allegedly materially incomplete and misleading Schedule 14D-9 to be filed with the SEC. Further, such complaint alleges that Everyday Health, Parent, Purchaser and j2 aided and abetted the Individual Defendants alleged breaches of fiduciary duties. The actions seek, among other things, an injunction against the consummation of the proposed Transactions, the imposition of a constructive trust, in favor of the plaintiff and the class, upon any benefits improperly received by the defendants or the award of rescissory damages, and the award of costs and disbursements for the actions, including reasonable attorneys and experts fees. The defendants believe that the allegations in the complaints lack any merit and intend to vigorously defend against the actions.
