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 3.30 pm (UK time) on the 10th business day
following the commencement of the offer period and, if appropriate, by no later
than 3.30 pm (UK 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 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 3.30 pm (UK 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 of 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.
