“There are no material conflicts of interest pertaining to the Offer or the admission of all outstanding JBT Shares to trading.”

Section 1 (Risk Factors):

 

   

Section 1.6.2 - Nasdaq Iceland may not list JBT Offer Shares on its exchange, which may limit the ability of shareholders to transact in the JBT Offer Shares

The first paragraph shall be amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

“Because Marel Shareholders who receive JBT Offer Shares as consideration can choose to receive JBT Offer Shares listed on either the NYSE or Nasdaq Iceland, JBT currently intends to list all outstanding JBT Shares issued in connection with the Transaction on Nasdaq Iceland. Neither JBT nor Marel can assure you that JBT will be able to meet all listing requirements or that Nasdaq Iceland will permit the listing of such JBT Shares. Even if such JBT Shares are listed on Nasdaq Iceland, the combined company may be unable to maintain such listing in the future. If JBT fails to list such JBT Shares on Nasdaq Iceland or maintain such listing, it may limit the ability of shareholders to transact in JBT Shares, including the JBT Offer Shares.”

 

   

Section 1.6.4 - If the JBT Offer Shares are listed on Nasdaq Iceland, the combined company will be subject to reporting requirements under Icelandic law, and adherence to these requirements could increase the combined companys operating costs

The first paragraph shall be amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

“Following the intended listing of all outstanding JBT Shares on Nasdaq Iceland, the combined company will be subject to reporting requirements and certain other applicable requirements under Icelandic law, including, but not limited to, the Market Abuse Regulation. Adherence to the requirements of these rules and regulations may increase the combined company’s legal, accounting and financial compliance costs, make certain activities more difficult, time consuming and costly, place additional strain on resources and divert management’s attention away from other business matters. In addition, the applicable legal requirements or the interpretation of such requirements by regulators and courts may differ or conflict which could expose the combined company to additional costs, sanctions and/or fines. Any of these factors could have a material effect on the combined company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.”

 

   

Section 1.6.5 - In connection with completion of the Transaction and if the JBT Offer Shares are approved for listing on Nasdaq Iceland, the JBT Shares will be listed and traded on two separate markets and investors seeking to take advantage of price differences between such markets may create unexpected volatility in the price of JBT Shares

 

5


The first paragraph shall be amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

“In connection with completion of the Transaction and if JBT Shares are approved for listing on Nasdaq Iceland, the JBT Shares will be listed and traded both on the NYSE and on Nasdaq Iceland. While the JBT Shares are traded on both markets, price and volume levels could fluctuate significantly on either market, independent of the share price or trading volume on the other market. Investors could seek to sell or buy JBT Shares to take advantage of any price differences between the two markets through a process referred to as arbitrage. Any arbitrage activity could create unexpected volatility in both the price of JBT Shares on either exchange and in the volume of JBT Shares available for trading on either market. In addition, JBT Stockholders in either jurisdiction will not immediately be able to transfer such shares for trading on the other market without effecting necessary procedures with JBT’s transfer agents/registrars. This could result in time delays and additional cost for such holders.”

Section 2 (General Information):

Such a supplement will be subject to approval by the Icelandic FSA in accordance with Article 23 of the Prospectus Regulation and will be made public in accordance with the relevant provisions under the Prospectus Regulation. The summary shall also be supplemented, if necessary, to take into account the new information included in the supplement. In case a significant new factor, material mistake or material inaccuracy relating to the information included in this Prospectus that may affect the assessment of the JBT Offer Shares arises after the later of the Offer Closing Time and the start of trading of JBT Shares on Nasdaq Iceland, JBT and the Offeror will not supplement this Prospectus.”

In connection with the Transaction and the Merger or Squeeze-Out, JBT, through the Offeror, and Marel intend to delist the Marel Shares from Euronext Amsterdam and Nasdaq Iceland as soon as practicable after the Offer Closing Time. JBT, through the Offeror, and Marel may initiate a delisting of the Marel Shares depending on the stake of JBT, prevailing market conditions and other economic considerations. A delisting would require the approval of Marel Shareholders at a shareholders’ meeting in respect of the Nasdaq Iceland Shares, and following such a meeting, an application would be submitted to Euronext Amsterdam and Nasdaq Iceland to delist. A delisting would result in the revocation of trading of Marel Shares on the regulated market and, thus, could make Marel Shares effectively illiquid.
