To the extent permissible under applicable law or regulation, TriCarbs BidCo or its brokers may purchase, or conclude agreements to purchase, shares in Cint, directly or indirectly, outside of the scope of the Offer, before, during or after the period in which the Offer remains open for acceptance. This also applies to other securities which are directly convertible into, exchangeable for, or exercisable for shares in Cint. These purchases may be completed via a market place at market prices or outside a market place at negotiated prices. Any information on such purchases will be disclosed as required by law or regulation in Sweden.
This press release has been published in Swedish and English. In the event of any discrepancy in content between the two language versions, the Swedish version shall prevail.
Forward-looking information
Statements in this press release relating to future status and circumstances, including statements regarding future performance, growth and other projections as well as benefits of the Offer, are forward-looking statements. These statements may generally, but not always, be identified by the use of words such as "should", "expects", "believes", or similar expressions. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that will occur in the future. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements due to many factors, many of which are outside the control of TriCarbs BidCo. Any such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they were made and TriCarbs BidCo has no obligation (and undertakes no such obligation) to update or revise any of them, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
Special notice to shareholders in the United States
The Offer described in this press release is made for the issued and outstanding shares of Cint, a company incorporated under Swedish law, and is subject to Swedish disclosure and procedural requirements, which may be different from those of the United States. Holders of shares in Cint domiciled in the United States ("U.S. Shareholders") are advised that the shares of Cint are not listed on a U.S. securities exchange and that Cint is not subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "U.S. Exchange Act"), and is not required to, and does not, file any reports with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") thereunder.
In the United States, the Offer is subject to the requirements of the U.S. Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, including Section 14(e) of the U.S. Exchange Act and Regulation 14E thereunder, in each case to the extent applicable, subject to the exemption provided under Rule 14e-1(d) under the U.S. Exchange Act (the "Tier II Exemption").
The Offer will otherwise be made in compliance with the disclosure and procedural requirements of Swedish law, including with respect to withdrawal rights, the Offer timetable, notices of extensions, announcements of results, settlement procedures (including as regards to the time when payment of the consideration is rendered) and waiver of conditions, which may be different from the requirements or customary practices in relation to U.S. domestic tender offers. As permitted under the Tier II Exemption, the settlement of the Offer is based on the applicable Swedish law provisions which differ from the settlement procedures customary in the United States, particularly as regards the time when payment of the consideration is rendered. The Offer, which is subject to Swedish law, is being made to the U.S. Shareholders in accordance with the applicable U.S. securities laws, and applicable exemptions thereunder, including the Tier II Exemption. To the extent the Offer is subject to U.S. securities laws, those laws only apply to U.S. Shareholders and thus will not give rise to claims on the part of any other person. The U.S. Shareholders should consider that the Offer Price is being paid in SEK and that no adjustment will be made based on any changes in the exchange rate.
Cint’s financial statements and all financial information included herein, or any other documents relating to the Offer, have been or will be prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and may not be comparable to the financial statements or financial information of companies in the United States or other companies whose financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The Offer is made to the U.S. Shareholders on the same terms and conditions as those made to all other shareholders of Cint to whom an offer is made. Any information documents, including the offer document, are being disseminated to U.S. Shareholders on a basis comparable to the method pursuant to which such documents are provided to Cint’s other shareholders.
It may be difficult for Cint’s shareholders to enforce their rights and any claims they may have arising under the U.S. federal or state securities laws in connection with the Offer, since Cint and TriCarbs BidCo are located in countries other than the United States, and some or all of their officers and directors may be residents of countries other than the United States. Cint’s shareholders may not be able to sue Cint or TriCarbs BidCo or their respective officers and directors in a non-U.S. court for violations of U.S. securities laws. Further, it may be difficult to compel Cint or TriCarbs BidCo and/or their respective affiliates to subject themselves to the jurisdiction or judgment of a U.S. court.
To the extent permissible under applicable law or regulations, TriCarbs BidCo and its affiliates or its brokers and its brokers’ affiliates (acting as agents for TriCarbs BidCo or its affiliates, as applicable) may from time to time and during the pendency of the Offer, and other than pursuant to the Offer, directly or indirectly purchase or arrange to purchase shares of Cint outside the United States, or any securities that are convertible into, exchangeable for or exercisable for such instruments. These purchases may occur either in the open market at prevailing prices or in private transactions at negotiated prices. To the extent required under applicable law or regulations, information about such purchases will be disclosed by means of a press release or other means reasonably calculated to inform U.S. Shareholders of such information to the extent that such information is made public in Cint’s home jurisdiction. In addition, the financial advisor to TriCarbs BidCo may also engage in ordinary course trading activities in securities of Cint, which may include purchases or arrangements to purchase such securities as long as such purchases or arrangements are in compliance with the applicable law.
The receipt of cash pursuant to the Offer by a U.S. Shareholder may be a taxable transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes and under applicable U.S. state and local, as well as foreign and other, tax laws. Each shareholder is urged to consult an independent professional adviser regarding the tax consequences of accepting the Offer. Neither TriCarbs BidCo nor any of its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees or agents or any other person acting on their behalf in connection with the Offer shall be responsible for any tax effects or liabilities resulting from acceptance of this Offer.
U.S. Shareholders are encouraged to consult with their own advisors regarding the Offer.
