The Schedule TO relates to the offer by Horizon, through Purchaser, to exchange each issued and outstanding share of common stock, no par value (including the associated rights to purchase preferred stock, the “Depomed common stock”), of Depomed, Inc., a California corporation (“Depomed”), that is validly tendered and not properly withdrawn prior to the expiration date, for 0.95 ordinary shares of Horizon, nominal value $0.0001 per share (including any cash paid in lieu of a fractional Horizon ordinary share), subject to the procedures described in (1) the Offer to Exchange, dated October 15, 2015 (the “Offer to Exchange”), and (2) the related Letter of Transmittal (the offer reflected by such terms and conditions, as they may be amended, supplemented or extended from time to time, constitutes the “Offer”).
