INTRODUCTION
This Amendment No. 4 to the Rule 13E-4 Issuer Tender Offer Transaction
Statement on Schedule 13e-4 (this "Amendment") is being filed by Wedgestone
Financial, a Massachusetts business trust (the "Company"), in connection
with the tender offer by the Company for all the issued and outstanding
shares of beneficial interest, $1.00 par value (the "SBI") held by persons or
entities that own SBI (the "Public Shareholders") upon the terms and subject
to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated May 8, 1998 (the
"Offer to Purchase") and the related Letter of Transmittal (which together
with the Offer to Purchase constitute the "Offer").
ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER.
Item 1 of the Schedule 13E-4 is hereby amended and supplemented as
follows:
The Offer expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 9, 1998.
Based on the preliminary count, which has been subsequently finalized,
approximately 6,371,982 SBI were tendered pursuant to the Offer. Such SBI
(including SBI delivered pursuant to notices of guaranteed delivery)
constituted approximately 29% of the outstanding SBI and approximately 77% of
the outstanding SBI held by persons other than the Remaining Shareholders.
On June 12, 1998, all SBI validly tendered and not withdrawn prior to the
expiration of the Offer were accepted for payment. As a result, the Remaining
Shareholders own approximately 91.5% of the outstanding SBI. The Remaining
Shareholders hold a sufficient number of SBI to effect a short form merger
without a vote or meeting of the Company's shareholders. The Remaining
Shareholders completed the merger on July 16, 1998. A press release issued by
the Company on June 10, 1998, announcing the expiration of the Offer and the
acceptance of validly tendered Shares is attached hereto as Exhibit (a)(8)
and is incorporated herein by reference.
