Reference is hereby made to the statement on Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 11, 2015, as amended on March 31, 2015, September 19, 2016, March 17, 2017, April 17, 2017, May 18, 2017, and June 12, 2017 (the “Schedule 13D”), with respect to the common stock, no par value (the “Common Stock”), of Norsat International Inc., a company incorporated under the laws of British Columbia (the “Norsat”). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein are used as defined in the Schedule 13D. Unless otherwise indicated, all references to dollars or “$” refer to U.S. dollars.

 

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

 

Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:

 

On June 23, 2017, Norsat issued a press release announcing that securityholders of Norsat voted to approve the plan of arrangement pursuant to which Hytera Communications Co., Ltd. (“Hytera”) will acquire all the issued and outstanding shares of Norsat for $11.50 in cash per share by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement (the “Hytera Acquisition”). On June 27, 2017, Norsat issued a press release announcing that the Hytera Acquisition was approved by a final order of the Supreme Court of British Columbia. As a result, the Reporting Persons are no longer pursuing the acquisition of Norsat.
