DEALING DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS
Under Rule 8.3(a) of the Code, any person who is interested in 1% 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 3.30 p.m. (London time) on the 10th business day following the
commencement of the offer period and, if appropriate, by no later than 3.30 p.m.
(London time) 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
Code, any person who is, or becomes, interested in 1% 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 3.30 p.m. (London time)
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 Takeover 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.
Please note that any address, electronic address and certain other information
provided for the receipt of communications from the offeree company may be
provided to an offeror during the offer period as required under Section 4 of
Appendix 4 of the Code.
"Interests in securities" arise, in summary, when a person has long economic
exposure, whether conditional or absolute, to changes in the price of
securities. In particular, a person will be treated as having an 'interest' by
virtue of the ownership or control of securities, or by virtue of any option in
respect of, or derivative referenced to, securities.
