This Amendment No. 2 (this Amendment) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO, as amended (the Statement) (originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 29, 2004 and as amended by Amendment No. 1 on July 12, 2004), relates to an offer by Diamondbacks Acquisition Inc., an Indiana corporation (Purchaser) and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dicks Sporting Goods, Inc., a Delaware corporation (Dicks or the Parent), to purchase all of the outstanding common stock, no par value per share (the Shares), of Galyans Trading Company, Inc., an Indiana corporation (Galyans or the Company), at a purchase price of $16.75 per share, net to the seller in cash and without interest thereon, upon the terms and conditions as described in the Offer to Purchase, dated June 29, 2004 (as amended, the Offer to Purchase), a copy of which has been filed as Exhibit (a)(1)(A) to the original filing of the Statement, and the related letter of transmittal and the instructions thereto, a copy of which has been filed as Exhibit (a)(1)(B) to the original filing of the Statement (which, as they may be amended or supplemented from time to time, together constitute the Offer). Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Offer to Purchase or in the Statement.
Items 1 through 9 and 11 of the Statement which incorporate by reference the information contained in the Offer to Purchase are hereby amended by the following amendments to the Offer to Purchase:
1. The Summary Term Sheet in the Offer to Purchase is hereby amended by supplementing the disclosures contained under the heading Conditions and Termination by inserting after the first full paragraph on page Q-3, a new paragraph as follows: The offer is not conditioned on Dicks obtaining financing. Dicks is negotiating an amendment to its senior secured credit facility to increase this facility up to $350 million in availability and permit it to be used to finance the offer and the merger. Dicks has obtained numerous amendments in the past to permit various transactions and fully expects that it will be able to enter into an amendment on mutually agreeable and satisfactory terms to permit borrowing under this facility to close the offer and merger. In the event that Dicks does not reach a satisfactory agreement on an amendment with its existing lenders, it believes it would be able to replace the existing lenders with new lenders and have a senior credit facility under which it would borrow to close the offer and the merger. See Section 12 Sources and Uses of Funds.
2. The first full paragraph of on page 6 of the Offer to Purchase entitled Under no circumstances will purchaser pay interest on the purchase price for Shares is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows: If Purchaser does not purchase any tendered Shares pursuant to the Offer for any reason, or if you submit Share Certificates representing more Shares than you wish to tender, Purchaser will return Share Certificates representing unpurchased or untendered Shares, without expense to you (or, in the case of Shares delivered by book-entry transfer into the Depositarys account at a Book-Entry Transfer Facility pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 3 Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares, Shares will be credited to an account maintained within the Book-Entry Transfer Facility), promptly following the expiration, termination or withdrawal of the Offer.
3. On page 16 of the Offer to Purchase, under the heading Background of the Offer; Past Contacts or Negotiations with Galyans, the last sentence of the first paragraph on that page is hereby deleted and a new paragraph is hereby inserted between the first and second paragraphs on that page. That new paragraph is as follows: The open issues that were part of the recommendation were price, termination fee, the fiduciary out and the scope of the Companys real estate representations and warranties. In addition reaching final agreement required satisfactory resolution of the disclosure letter. The draft disclosure letter for the merger agreement was first provided to Dicks and its outside counsel late in the afternoon on June 18, 2004. From June 19 until June 21, 2004, Galyans and its counsel also provided certain additional nonpublic information relating to Galyans and its subsidiaries to Dicks. From June 19 and until mid-afternoon on June 21, 2004, members of Dicks management as well as its outside counsel discussed with Galyans and its outside counsel various matters set forth in the draft disclosure letter and negotiated matters which could be contained in this letter as exceptions to representations and warranties contained in the draft merger agreement. These discussions continued until Galyans June 21, 2004 board meeting.
4. On page 40 of the Offer to Purchase, under the heading Conditions of the Offer, the last sentence of the last full paragraph of that page is hereby amended and restated as follows: The failure by Dicks or Purchaser at any time to exercise any of the foregoing rights shall not be deemed a waiver of any such right and each such right shall be deemed an ongoing right which may be asserted at any time and from time to time prior to the expiration of the Offer.
