The Schedule TO relates to the tender offer for all of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.10 per share (the “Shares”) of CSS Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), at a price of $9.40 per Share, net to the seller in cash, subject to reduction for any applicable withholding taxes in respect thereof, without interest, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the offer to purchase, dated January 31, 2020 (the “Offer to Purchase”), a copy of which is attached as Exhibit (a)(1)(A), and in the related letter of transmittal, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit (a)(1)(B), which, together with any amendments or supplements, collectively constitute the “Offer.” This Schedule TO is being filed on behalf of Purchaser, Parent and IG Design.

Item 11. Additional Information.

 

Item 11 of the Schedule TO and the disclosure under Section 16 “Certain Legal Matters; Regulatory Approvals - Legal Proceedings” of the Offer to Purchase are hereby amended and supplemented by inserting the following text to the end of such Section 16:

 

On February 7, 2020, a suit was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York by a purported stockholder of the Company in connection with the pending Offer and the Merger. The action captioned Adrienne Halberstam vs. CSS Industries, Inc. et. al. (1:20-cv-01075), alleges that the Company and the directors of the Company violated Sections 14(e), 14(d), and 20(a) and Rule 14d-9(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), by filing a Schedule 14D-9 Solicitation/Recommendation Statement with the Commission that contains allegedly misleading statements and omissions concerning financial projections for the Company, the valuation analyses performed by the Company’s financial advisor in support of its fairness opinion and certain background information relating to the Contemplated Transactions. The action seeks various remedies, including enjoining the Merger from being consummated, or in the event the Merger is consummated, rescission or rescissory damages, and costs and fees relating to the lawsuit.

 

On February 10, 2020, a putative class action complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware by a purported stockholder of the Company in connection with the pending Offer and the Merger. The action captioned Joseph Post vs. CSS Industries, Inc. et. al. (1:20-cv-00192-UNA), alleges that the Company and the directors of the Company violated Sections 14(e), 14(d), and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and the Purchasing Parties violated Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act by filing a Schedule 14D-9 Solicitation/Recommendation Statement with the Commission that contains allegedly misleading statements and omissions concerning financial projections for the Company, the valuation analyses performed by the Company’s financial advisor in support of its fairness opinion and certain background information relating to the Contemplated Transactions. The action seeks various remedies, including enjoining the Merger from being consummated, or in the event the Merger is consummated, rescission or rescissory damages, and costs and fees relating to the lawsuit.  The action further seeks judgments (i) directing the defendants to file a Schedule 14D-9 Solicitation/Recommendation Statement that does not contain any untrue statements of material fact and states all material facts required in it or necessary to make the statements within it not misleading and (ii) declaring that the defendants violated Sections 14(e), 14(d), and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 14a-9 promulgated thereunder.
