Details of Integrated Silicon Solution Inc. Expected to close in the third quarter of 2015. Upon completion of the merger, shareholders of Integrated Silicon Solution will receive $19.25 per share in cash. Update(s) May 29, 2015: Integrated Silicon Solution announced that it had entered into an amendment to its previously announced merger agreement with Uphill Investment. Under the terms of the amendment, the merger consideration was increased to $20.00 per share in cash, from the $19.25 per share in cash. May 29, 2015: Cypress Semiconductor Corporation increased its offer to accquire Integrated Silicon Solution to $20.25 per share beating Uphill Investment Co’s increased offer made earlier on Friday. Uphill had raised its original offer to $20 per share from $19.25, to which ISSI had agreed. June 11, 2015: Integrated Silicon Solution (ISSI) and Uphill Investment amended the Uphill Agreement after ISSI announced yesterday that it had agreed to terms with Cypress Semiconductor (CY) to be acquired for a cash purchase price of $20.25 per share. After considering that the existing offer from Cypress had a lower price than the $21.00 per share provided by the amended Uphill Agreement, the ISSI Board has determined that the proposal from Cypress no longer constitutes, and would not be reasonably expected to lead to a Superior Proposal. June 29, 2015: Chinese investor group Uphill hiked its buyout offer for Integrated Silicon (ISSI) by $1 to $22 per share, $2.75 above its original offer price, shortly after Cypress Semi (CY) hiked its offerto $21.25 per share (while finally agreeing to pay a $19.2M termination fee). June 27, 2015: Integrated Silicon Solution (ISSI) said that its board has decided that Cypress Semiconductor’s (CY) revised buyout offer of $22.60 is not superior to the approximately $738.3 million deal it already has in place with Uphill Investment Co. June 29, 2015: Integrated Silicon Solution (ISSI) reported that its stockholders approved the acquisition of ISSI by Uphill Investment Co. (Uphill) for $23.00 per share in cash pursuant to the merger agreement between ISSI and Uphill dated as of March 12, 2015, as amended. September 16, 2015: ISSI expects that the closing of the merger with Uphill will occur in the fourth calendar quarter of 2015.
