This Amendment No. 4 amends and supplements the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on January 26, 2005, Amendment No. 2 filed on January 28, 2005 and Amendment No. 3 filed on February 1, 2005 (as amended, the Statement), initially filed by Goldcorp Inc. (Goldcorp or the Company) with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 21, 2005 relating to the exchange offer (the Offer) made by Glamis Gold Ltd. (Glamis or the Offeror) to exchange all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Goldcorp on the basis of 0.89 common shares of Glamis for each Goldcorp common share. In connection with the Offer, the Companys board of directors prepared a directors circular (the Directors Circular) pursuant to applicable securities laws in Canada. The Directors Circular was filed as exhibit (a)(2)(A) to the initial Schedule 14D-9. Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in the Directors Circular.
Item 8. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.
Amendment No. 3 to the Companys Schedule 14D-9 was inadvertently submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission via the EDGAR system with incorrect Central Index Key (CIK) information for the subject company. Amendment No. 3 was filed with the CIK for Wheaton River Minerals Ltd., indicating that Wheaton is subject company of the Offer. Amendment No. 3 should indicate that Goldcorp Inc. is the subject company with respect to the Offer.
Amendment No. 3 as filed via EDGAR also indicates that the Amendment was signed by R. Gordon Laing on behalf of the Company. Amendment No. 3 was, in fact, signed on behalf of the Company by R. Gregory Laing, the Companys Vice President, Legal.
