This Amendment No. 3 (the "Amendment") amends and supplements the
Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed by Danaher Corporation, a Delaware
corporation ("Danaher"), and Phoenix Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation
and an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Danaher (the "Purchaser"), on June
21, 2001, as previously amended and supplemented (the "Schedule TO"), relating
to the offer by the Purchaser to purchase all outstanding shares of common
stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Shares"), of Microtest, Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("Microtest") at $8.15 per Share, net to the seller in cash, upon
the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase,
dated June 21, 2001 (the "Offer to Purchase") and in the related Letter of
Transmittal, copies of which are attached as Exhibits (a)(1) and (a)(2),
respectively, to the Schedule TO.
Items 1 through 9 and 11.
Items 1 through 9 and 11 of the Schedule TO, which incorporate by
reference the information contained in the Offer to Purchase, are hereby amended
and supplemented by adding thereto the following:
On July 20, 2001, the Offer was extended through 12:00 midnight, New
York City time, on Monday, July 23, 2001. Accordingly, the term "Expiration
Date" means 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Monday, July 23, 2001, unless
we further extend the period of time for which the initial offering period of
the Offer is open, in which case the term "Expiration Date" will mean the time
and date at which the initial offering period of the Offer, as so extended, will
expire. According to a preliminary count by the Depository, there were tendered
and not withdrawn 7,779,162 Shares as of 12:00 midnight on July 20, 2001
(excluding 39,393 Shares listed on notices of guaranteed delivery received by
the Depository), representing approximately 89.725% of the outstanding Shares.
On July 23, 2001, Danaher issued a press release announcing the
extension of the Offer as described above, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit
(a)(11) hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
