Introductory Note
On October 17, 2005, at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, the initial offer period expired for the tender offer (the Offer), by Orange Merger Corp., a Delaware corporation (Purchaser) and a wholly owned subsidiary of Océ N.V., a company organized under the laws of the Netherlands (Parent), to purchase all outstanding shares of the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the Common Stock), of Imagistics International Inc., a Delaware corporation (the Company), and the associated Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock purchase rights (the Rights; such Rights, together with the Common Stock, are the Shares) issued pursuant to the Rights Agreement dated as of September 28, 2001, as amended, between the Company and Equiserve Trust Company, N.A., as Rights Agent, for $42.00 per Share, net to the seller in cash (such amount, or any greater amount per Share paid in the Offer, the Offer Price).
The Offer was commenced on September 19, 2005, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of September 15, 2005 by and among the Company, Parent and Purchaser (the Merger Agreement). The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, as soon as practicable after the consummation of the Offer, and in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law (the Delaware Law), Purchaser will be merged with and into the Company (the Merger), with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. At the effective time of the Merger (the Effective Time), each outstanding Share (other than Shares held by the Company in treasury, by any of the Companys subsidiaries, or by Parent, Purchaser or any of their wholly owned subsidiaries and Shares with respect to which appraisal rights under Section 262 of the Delaware Law are properly exercised) will be converted into the right to receive cash in the amount of the Offer Price, without interest.
On October 18, 2005, Parent issued a press release announcing that the Offer had been successfully completed, with 13,018,344 Shares tendered in the initial offering period, and notices of guaranteed delivery received during the initial offering period in respect of an additional 561,711 Shares, for a total of approximately 87 percent of the issued and outstanding Shares. Purchaser has accepted all Shares validly tendered in the initial offering period in accordance with the terms of the Offer.
In its press release, Parent also announced the commencement of a subsequent offering period, commencing at 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on October 18, 2005 and expiring at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 25, 2005. Purchaser will immediately accept all Shares properly tendered, as they are tendered, during the subsequent offering period and will pay for such Shares promptly. Stockholders who tender during the subsequent offering period will receive the same Offer Price paid during the initial offering period. The subsequent offer is on the same terms and subject to the same conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated September 19, 2005 of Purchaser (the Offer to Purchase) and the related Letter of Transmittal, except that, as permitted by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Shares tendered during the subsequent offering period may not be withdrawn.
A copy of the press release issued by Parent on October 18, 2005 is filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated into this report by reference.
Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
Credit Agreement Amendment
On October 17, 2005, the Company entered into an Eighth Amendment Agreement dated as of October 17, 2005 (the Amendment Agreement) by and among the Company, Bank of America, N.A. (as successor to Fleet Capital Corporation) (together with its successors and assigns, Bank of America), and the other financial institutions party to the Credit Agreement (as defined below) as lenders (collectively, the Lenders and individually, a Lender) and (3) Bank of America, as administrative agent (the Administrative Agent) for the Lenders with respect to the Credit Agreement dated as of November 9, 2001 by and among the Company, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, as amended by the First Amendment Agreement dated as of March 19, 2002, the Second Amendment Agreement dated as of July 19, 2002, the Third Amendment Agreement dated as of March
5, 2003, the Fourth Amendment Agreement dated as of May 16, 2003, the Fifth Amendment Agreement dated as of May 7, 2004, the Sixth Amendment Agreement dated as of June 1, 2004 and the Seventh Amendment Agreement dated as of June 15, 2005 (as amended, the Credit Agreement).
The Amendment Agreement provides that, effective as of the Amendment Effective Date (as defined below), the Lenders waive (the Limited Waiver), for the Limited Waiver Period (as defined below), the Event of Default (as defined in the Credit Agreement) that has occurred or which may occur under Section 10(j) of the Credit Agreement by virtue of the acquisition by Purchaser on October 17, 2005 of more than 35 percent of the aggregate voting power of all equity interests of the Company (the Specified Event of Default). The waiver set forth in the Amendment Agreement is effective only for the Specified Event of Default and only for the Limited Waiver Period. As used in the Amendment Agreement, Limited Waiver Period means the period beginning on the Amendment Effective Date and ending upon the earlier of the following: (i) immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, other than the Specified Event of Default, after the date of the Amendment Agreement and (ii) January 2, 2006. As used in the Amendment Agreement, Amendment Effective Date means the date on which the conditions precedent to the waiver granted under the Amendment Agreement are satisfied. Those conditions are (a) the accuracy of representations and warranties made by the Company in the Amendment Agreement, (b) compliance by the Company with its terms and conditions under the Amendment Agreement and the absence of any Event of Default (other than a Specified Event of Default), (c) all requisite corporate action for the execution, delivery and performance of the Amendment Agreement and related documents on the part of the Company having been taken, (d) the execution and delivery of the Amendment Agreement by the Company and (e) the acquisition by Purchaser of in excess of 35 percent of the aggregate voting power of all equity interests of the Company.
The Amendment Agreement also amended the Credit Agreement to restrict the Companys ability to effect certain repurchases or redemptions of outstanding equity securities of the Company.
There is no material relationship between the Company and any of the parties to the Amendment Agreement, except that Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated (Merrill Lynch), an affiliate of Merrill Lynch Capital Corporation, a Lender under the Credit Facility, has acted as financial advisor to the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
Pursuant to an engagement letter dated August 16, 2005 with Merrill Lynch, the Company agreed to pay Merrill Lynch (i) a fee (the Success Fee) of 0.90 percent of the aggregate purchase price (which is defined to include both the consideration for the acquisition by Purchaser of Shares and the value of debt of the Company assumed or acquired by Purchaser or retired by the Company) in connection with the acquisition by Purchaser of Shares of the Company in the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, all of which is contingent upon the consummation of the Offer or (ii) a fee of 25 percent of any termination or break-up fee (net of certain expenses) received by Purchaser in connection with the transaction, subject to a cap in the case of (ii) of 50 percent of the Success Fee. Assuming the completion of the Offer at the current Offer Price of $42.00 per Share, and the completion of the Merger, and based on the number of Shares and stock options outstanding as of September 9, 2005, and the indebtedness of the Company as of September 14, 2005, the Company estimates the Success Fee would be approximately $6.79 million.
Merrill Lynch has in the past provided financing services to the Company or its affiliates and may continue to do so in the future and has received, and may receive, fees for rendering such services. In the ordinary course of its business, Merrill Lynch may actively trade the Shares and other securities of the Company, as well as securities of Parent, for its own account and for the accounts of customers and, accordingly, may at any time hold a long or short position in such securities.
The foregoing description of the Amendment Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto, and is incorporated into this report by reference.

On October 14, 2005, in accordance with the Merger Agreement, the Companys Employee Benefits Committee (the EBC) adopted Amendment No. 3 (the ESPP Amendment) to the Companys Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the ESPP). The ESPP Amendment provides that:
The foregoing description of the ESPP Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the ESPP Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 hereto, and is incorporated into this report by reference.

The foregoing description of the Stock Plan Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Stock Plan Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.3 hereto, and is incorporated into this report by reference.
Item 5.01 Changes in Control of the Registrant
The description set forth above under Introductory Note is hereby incorporated into this Item 5.01 by reference. By virtue of the acceptance for payment of Shares by Purchaser pursuant to the Offer, as described above under Introductory Note, Purchaser and Parent have acquired control of the Company.
The total consideration payable by Purchaser in respect of the Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn during the initial offering period pursuant to the Offer, including Shares in respect of which notices of guaranteed delivery were delivered during the initial offering period, is approximately $570.4 million. According to the Offer to Purchase, Purchaser will obtain funds for the payment of consideration payable pursuant to the Offer and the Merger, and for related costs and expenses, from Parent, either directly or indirectly in the form of capital contributions and/or loans from Parent and/or its subsidiaries or affiliates. According to the Offer to Purchase, Parent will obtain all of such funds pursuant to a Credit Facility Agreement, dated September 16, 2005, among Parent as borrower, ABN AMRO Bank N.V., Coöperatieve Central Raiffeisen-Boerenleenbank B.A. and ING Bank N.V. as mandated lead arrangers, ING Bank N.V. as facility agent, and the banks from time to time parties thereto, or will obtain such funds from internal sources.
The Merger Agreement provides that promptly upon the purchase of and payment for Shares pursuant to the Offer (provided the Shares purchased represent at least a majority of the Shares issued and outstanding on an as-if-converted basis), Parent will be entitled to designate a number of directors, rounded to the nearest whole number, on the Companys Board of Directors that equals the product of the total number of directors on the Companys Board
4
of Directors (giving effect to the directors designated by Parent) multiplied by the percentage that the number of Shares so accepted for payment bears to the total number of Shares then outstanding (on an as-if-converted basis). The Company will, upon request by Parent or Purchaser, use all reasonable efforts to promptly either increase the size of the Companys Board of Directors or secure the resignation of such number of its incumbent directors, or both, as is necessary to enable Parents designees to be so elected to the Companys Board of Directors, and shall take all actions available to the Company to cause Parents designees to be so elected. The Company shall also, subject to applicable law and the rules of any stock exchange or trading market on which the Companys Common Stock is based or traded, cause persons designated by Parent to have appropriate representation on each committee of the Companys Board of Directors, each subsidiarys board and each committee of such subsidiary board.
If Parents designees are elected to the Companys Board of Directors, until the Effective Time, the Companys Board of Directors must have at least three directors who are directors of the Company on the date of the Merger Agreement (each, an Original Director) or whose replacements are designated by an Original Director. If Parents designees are elected to the Companys Board of Directors before the Effective Time, the affirmative vote of a majority of the Original Directors shall be required to:
Parent has not, as of the date of this report, exercised its right to designate directors to the Company Board, but has reserved the right to make such designations in accordance with the Merger Agreement.
The foregoing description of the arrangements set forth in the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 99.2 hereto, and is incorporated into this report by reference.
