INTRODUCTION

This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (together with any subsequent amendments and supplements thereto, the “Schedule TO”) originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by IGM Biosciences, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“IGM” or the “Company”) on June 20, 2024. The Schedule TO relates to an offer by the Company to exchange certain outstanding stock options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, on the terms set forth in the Offer to Exchange Certain Outstanding Options for Restricted Stock Units dated June 20, 2024 (the “Offer to Exchange”), previously filed as Exhibit (a)(1)(A) to the Schedule TO.

This Amendment is being filed to amend and supplement certain provisions of the Schedule TO as set forth herein. Except as specifically provided herein, the information contained in the Schedule TO and the Offer to Exchange remains unchanged. This Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Schedule TO and the Offer to Exchange.

Amendments to the Offer to Exchange

The Offer to Exchange and Items 1 through 11 of the Schedule TO, to the extent such items incorporate by reference the information contained in the Offer to Exchange, are hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

Offer to Exchange – Summary Term Sheet and Questions and Answers

On page 1 of the Offer to Exchange, the sixth bullet under the heading “Summary Term Sheet and Questions and Answers—Q1. What is the offer? —Terms Used in This Offer to Exchange” is amended and restated as follows:

 

“•

“eligible options” refers to options to purchase shares of IGM’s common stock granted on or prior to March 1, 2023 that have a per share exercise price equal to or greater than $17.70, that remain outstanding and unexercised as of the expiration date, that have a per share exercise price greater than the closing price of our common stock on the expiration date, and that were granted under the 2018 Plan.”

On page 6 of the Offer to Exchange, the first paragraph under the heading “Summary Term Sheet and Questions and Answers—Q7. Which of my options are eligible?” is amended and restated as follows:

“A7. Your eligible options are those options to purchase shares of common stock of IGM that were granted on or prior to March 1, 2023 under the 2018 Plan, have a per share exercise price equal to or greater than $17.70, whether vested or unvested, remain outstanding and unexercised as of the expiration date, currently expected to occur on July 18, 2024, and have a per share exercise price greater than the closing price of our common stock on the expiration date, currently expected to occur on July 19, 2024. The determination of which options are eligible was made by our board of directors, with the advice of external advisors, based on a careful balancing of a number of factors.”

Offer to Exchange – 2. Number of RSUs; expiration date.

On page 99 of the Offer to Exchange, the first paragraph under the heading “Number of RSUs; expiration date” is amended and restated as follows:

“Subject to the terms and conditions of this offer, we will accept for exchange options granted on or prior to March 1, 2023 with a per share exercise price equal to or greater than $17.70, whether vested

or unvested, that were granted under the 2018 Plan, are held by eligible employees, are outstanding and unexercised as of the expiration date of the offer, have a per share exercise price greater than the closing price of our common stock on the expiration date, are properly elected to be exchanged, and are not validly withdrawn before the expiration date of the offer. In order to be eligible, options must be outstanding on the expiration date of the offer. For example, if a particular option grant expires during the offering period, that option grant is not eligible for exchange.”

Offer to Exchange – 7. Conditions of the offer.

On page 110 of the Offer to Exchange, the third bullet under the heading “Conditions of the offer” is amended and restated as follows:

“• Any of the following:

 

•

any general suspension of trading in our securities on any national securities exchange or in an over-the-counter market in the United States,

 

•

the declaration of a banking moratorium or any suspension of payments in respect of banks in the United States,

 

•

any limitation, whether or not mandatory, by any governmental, regulatory or administrative agency or authority on, or any event that, in our reasonable judgment, might affect the extension of credit to us by banks or other lending institutions in the United States,

 

•

a decline of at least 10% in either the Dow Jones Industrial Average or the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index from the date of commencement of this offer,

 

•

the commencement, continuation, or escalation of a war or other national or international calamity directly or indirectly involving the United States, which reasonably could be expected to affect materially or adversely, or to delay materially, the completion of the offer, or

 

•

if any of the situations described above existed at the time of commencement of the offer and that situation, in our reasonable judgment, deteriorates materially after commencement of the offer;”

On page 111 of the Offer to Exchange, the final paragraph under the heading “Conditions of the offer” is amended and restated as follows:

“The conditions to this offer are for our benefit. In our discretion, we may assert them before the expiration date regardless of the circumstances giving rise to them (other than circumstances caused by our action or inaction). We may waive any condition, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time before the expiration date, in our discretion, whether or not we waive any other condition to the offer. Any such waiver will apply to all eligible employees in a uniform and non-discretionary manner. Our failure at any time to exercise any of these rights will not be deemed a waiver of any such rights, but will be deemed a waiver of our ability to assert the condition that was triggered with respect to the particular circumstances under which we failed to exercise our rights. Any determination we make concerning the events described in this Section 7 will be given the maximum deference permitted by law. However, you have all rights accorded to you under applicable law to challenge such determination in a court of competent jurisdiction. Only a court of competent jurisdiction can make a determination that will be final and binding upon the parties.”
