Dealing disclosure requirements:
Under Rule 8.3(a) of the City Code, any person who is interested in 1 per cent.
or more of any class of relevant securities of an offeree company or of any
paper offeror (being any offeror other than an offeror in respect of which it
has been announced that its offer is, or is likely to be, solely in cash) must
make an Opening Position Disclosure following the commencement of the offer
period and, if later, following the announcement in which any paper offeror is
first identified. An Opening Position Disclosure must contain details of the
person's interests and short positions in, and rights to subscribe for, any
relevant securities of each of (i) the offeree company and (ii) any paper
offeror(s). An Opening Position Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(a)
applies must be made by no later than 3:30pm on the 10th business day following
the commencement of the offer period and, if appropriate, by no later than
3:30pm on the 10th business day following the announcement in which any paper
offeror is first identified. Relevant persons who deal in the relevant
securities of the offeree company or of a paper offeror prior to the deadline
for making an Opening Position Disclosure must instead make a Dealing
Disclosure.
Under Rule 8.3(b) of the City Code, any person who is, or becomes, interested in
1 per cent. or more of any class of relevant securities of the offeree company
or of any paper offeror, must make a Dealing Disclosure if the person deals in
any relevant securities of the offeree company or of any paper offeror. A
Dealing Disclosure must contain details of the dealing concerned and of the
person's interests and short positions in, and rights to subscribe for, any
relevant securities of each of (i) the offeree company and (ii) any paper
offeror, save to the extent that these details have previously been disclosed
under Rule 8. A Dealing Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(b) applies must
be made by no later than 3:30pm on the business day following the date of the
relevant dealing.
If two or more persons act together pursuant to an agreement or understanding,
whether formal or informal, to acquire or control an interest in relevant
securities of an offeree company or a paper offeror, they will be deemed to be a
single person for the purpose of Rule 8.3.
Opening Position Disclosures must also be made by the offeree company and by any
offeror and Dealing Disclosures must also be made by the offeree company, by any
offeror and by any persons acting in concert with any of them (see Rules 8.1,
8.2 and 8.4). Details of the offeree and offeror companies in respect of whose
relevant securities Opening Position Disclosures and Dealing Disclosures must be
made can be found in the Disclosure Table on the Panel's website at
www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk, including details of the number of relevant
securities in issue, when the offer period commenced and when any offeror was
first identified. If you are in any doubt as to whether you are required to make
an Opening Position Disclosure or a Dealing Disclosure, you should contact the
Panel's Market Surveillance Unit on +44 (0)20 7638 0129.
