(“Celator”), par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”), multiplied by the offer price of $30.25 per Share, (ii) 5,395,386 Shares issuable pursuant to outstanding options with an exercise price less than the offer price of $30.25 per Share, multiplied by $27.78, which is the offer price of $30.25 per Share minus the weighted average exercise price for such options of $2.47 per Share, (iii) 2,871,632 Shares issuable pursuant to outstanding warrants with an exercise price less than the offer price of $30.25 per Share, multiplied by $26.56, which is the offer price of $30.25 per Share minus the weighted average exercise price for such warrants of $3.69 per Share. The calculation of the filing fee is based on information provided by Celator as of June 7, 2016.

This Amendment No. 4 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (as amended and together with any subsequent amendments and supplements thereto, the “Schedule TO”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 10, 2016 by Plex Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Purchaser”) and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Jazz Pharmaceuticals plc, a public limited company organized under the laws of Ireland (“Parent”). The Schedule TO relates to the offer by Purchaser to purchase all of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”), of Celator Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Celator”), at $30.25 net to the seller in cash, without interest (less any required withholding taxes), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated June 10, 2016 (together with any amendments and supplements thereto, the “Offer to Purchase”), and in the related letter of transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal”), copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii), respectively, which Offer to Purchase and Letter of Transmittal collectively constitute the “Offer”.

The information in the Offer to Purchase and the Letter of Transmittal is incorporated in this Amendment by reference to all of the applicable items in the Schedule TO, except that such information is amended and supplemented to the extent specifically provided in this Amendment. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Offer to Purchase or in the Schedule TO.

Amendments to the Offer to Purchase

Items 1 through 9; Item 11.

The Offer to Purchase and Items 1 through 9 and Item 11 of the Schedule TO are hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

“At one minute following 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on July 11, 2016, the Offer expired as scheduled and was not extended. Purchaser was advised by the Depositary that, as of the Expiration Date, a total of 36,516,173 Shares (excluding shares tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures that have not yet been “received,” as defined by Section 251(h)(6) of the DGCL) were validly tendered into and not properly withdrawn from the Offer, representing approximately 81.13% of the Shares outstanding as of the Expiration Date. In addition, the Depositary advised that Notices of Guaranteed Delivery have been delivered with respect to 2,016,237 additional Shares, representing approximately 4.48% of the outstanding Shares as of the Expiration Date.

The number of Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer satisfied the Minimum Tender Condition. All conditions to the Offer having been satisfied, Purchaser accepted for payment and will promptly pay for all Shares validly tendered into and not properly withdrawn from the Offer.

Promptly following the consummation of the Offer, Parent and Purchaser intend to complete the acquisition of Celator through the Merger without a meeting of stockholders of Celator in accordance with Section 251(h) of the DGCL. At the Effective Time, each Share then outstanding (other than Shares that were held by any stockholders who properly demanded appraisal in connection with the Merger as described in Section 16 — “Certain Legal Matters; Regulatory Approvals—Appraisal Rights” of the Offer to Purchase) will be converted into the right to receive the Offer Price, in cash and without interest except for Shares held by Celator, Parent or Purchaser, which Shares will be cancelled and retired and cease to exist, and no consideration will be delivered in exchange therefor.

Following the Merger, the Shares will be delisted and will cease to trade on NASDAQ.

On July 12, 2016, Parent issued a press release announcing the expiration and results of the Offer. The full text of the press release is attached as Exhibit (a)(5)(iii) to the Schedule TO and is incorporated herein by reference.”
