This Amendment No. 3 to Schedule TO (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO, originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 21, 2016 (together with any subsequent amendments and supplements thereto, the “Schedule TO”) by MACOM Technology Solutions Holdings, Inc. (“MACOM”), a Delaware corporation, and Montana Merger Sub I, Inc. (the “Purchaser”), a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of MACOM. The Schedule TO relates to the offer by the Purchaser to exchange for each outstanding share of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of Applied Micro Circuits Corporation (“AppliedMicro”), a Delaware corporation, (a) $3.25 in cash and (b) 0.1089 shares of MACOM common stock, par value $0.001 per share, plus cash in lieu of any fractional shares of MACOM common stock, in each case without interest (together, the “transaction consideration”) (collectively, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Prospectus/Offer and the related Letter of Transmittal, and together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Offer”).

MACOM filed with the SEC a Registration Statement on Form S-4 on December 21, 2016 and Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement on Form S-4 on January 18, 2017 (as amended, the “Registration Statement”), relating to the offer and sale of shares of MACOM common stock to be issued to holders of shares of AppliedMicro common stock validly tendered in the Offer and not properly withdrawn. The terms and conditions of the Offer are set forth in the Prospectus/Offer, which is a part of the Registration Statement and filed as Exhibit (a)(4) to the Schedule TO (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Prospectus/Offer”), and the related Letter of Transmittal, which is filed as Exhibit (a)(1)(A) to the Schedule TO (the “Letter of Transmittal”). Pursuant to General Instruction F to Schedule TO, the information contained in the Prospectus/Offer and the Letter of Transmittal, including any prospectus supplement or other supplement thereto related to the Offer hereafter filed with the SEC by MACOM or the Purchaser, is expressly incorporated into the Schedule TO by reference in response to items 1 through 11 of the Schedule TO and is supplemented by the information specifically provided for in the Schedule TO.

All information regarding the Offer as set forth in the Schedule TO, including all exhibits and annexes thereto that were previously filed with the Schedule TO, is hereby expressly incorporated by reference into this Amendment, except that such information is hereby amended and supplemented to the extent specifically provided for herein and to the extent amended and supplemented by the exhibits filed herewith. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule TO.

Items 1 though 11.

Items 1 through 11 are hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following text thereto:

“At 12:00 a.m. midnight, Eastern time, at the end of January 25, 2017, the Offer expired as scheduled and was not extended. The Purchaser was advised by American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, the depositary and exchange agent for the Offer, that as of the expiration of the offer, a total of 64,466,896 shares of AppliedMicro common stock were validly tendered in the Offer and not properly withdrawn, representing approximately 73.6% of AppliedMicro’s outstanding shares. The number of shares of AppliedMicro common stock validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer satisfied the minimum condition to the Offer, and all other conditions to the Offer were satisfied. Accordingly, the Purchaser accepted for exchange, and will promptly exchange, all 64,466,896 shares of AppliedMicro common stock validly tendered and not properly withdrawn.

Following the consummation of the Offer, MACOM intends to acquire the remaining shares of AppliedMicro common stock outstanding through the merger of AppliedMicro with and into the Purchaser, with AppliedMicro surviving the merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of MACOM. The merger will be completed pursuant to Section 251(h) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

On January 26, 2017, MACOM issued a press release announcing the expiration and results of the Offer. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit (a)(5)(K) hereto and incorporated by reference herein.”
