INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT
This Amendment No. 2 is an amendment to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (the “Schedule TO”) filed by Toreador Resources Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Toreador” or the “Company”) with respect to the right of each holder (each, a “Holder”) of the Company’s 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 (the “Notes”) to require the Company to repurchase the Notes, as set forth in the Company Notice to Holders of 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025, dated September 2, 2010 (the “Company Notice”) and the Supplement to Company Notice to Holders of 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025, dated September 13, 2010 (the “Supplement”) and the related notice materials filed as exhibits to the originally filed Schedule TO (which related notice materials, together with the Company Notice and Supplement, collectively constitute the “Option Documents”). This Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule TO is intended to satisfy the filing and disclosure requirements of Rule 13e-4(c)(4) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Items 1 and 4.
Items 1 and 4 of the Schedule TO are hereby amended and supplemented by the following language:
“The right of Holders to surrender their Notes for purchase (the “Put Option”) by the Company pursuant to the Option Documents expired at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, at the end of September 30, 2010. The Company has been advised by The Bank of New York Mellon, as paying agent (the “Paying Agent”), that $32,256,000 aggregate principal amount of the Notes were validly surrendered for purchase and not withdrawn prior to the expiration of the Put Option. Toreador has accepted all such Notes for payment. In accordance with the terms of the indenture governing the Notes, Toreador has forwarded the Paying Agent the appropriate amount of cash required to pay the total purchase price for the surrendered Notes, and, in accordance with the indenture, the Paying Agent will distribute the cash to the Holders no later than three business days following the later of October 1, 2010 or the delivery by the Holder of the Note(s). After giving effect to the purchase of the Notes pursuant to the Put Option, $129,000 aggregate principal amount of the Notes remains outstanding.”
