December 22 2008 - 3:30PM
Business Wire
eTelecare Global Solutions (�eTelecare� or the �Company�) (NASDAQ:
ETEL) announced today its intention to voluntarily delist its
American Depositary Shares (�ADSs�) from the Nasdaq Global Select
Market (�Nasdaq�). An affiliate of Ayala Corporation and Providence
Equity Partners owns approximately 98.7% of the Company�s
outstanding Common Shares, including ADSs representing Common
Shares, as a result of the tender offer completed on December 11,
2008. As a result of the tender offer, eTelecare believes that it
no longer has 400 round lot holders. The Company intends to file a
notification of removal from listing on Nasdaq on Form 25 with the
SEC on or about January 2, 2009 and the trading of the Company�s
ADSs on Nasdaq will be suspended on that date. The withdrawal of
the ADSs from listing on Nasdaq will become effective 10 days after
the filing of the notice on Form 25 with the SEC. The Company
reserves the right to delay the filing of the Form 25. The Company
has not arranged for the listing of the Company�s securities on
another U.S. securities exchange or for quotation of the Company�s
securities on any other quotation medium in the United States. The
Company�s Common Shares will continue to trade on the Philippine
Stock Exchange. The Company believes that, as a result of the
completion of the tender offer, it meets the delisting standards of
the Philippine Stock Exchange. The Company intends to voluntarily
delist from the Philippine Stock Exchange following the delisting
of its ADSs from Nasdaq and the termination of its registration and
reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
