Implementation By EDL Holding Company, LLC, Euro Disney Investments S.A.S. And EDL Corporation S.A.S. Of A Mandatory Buy-Out Following The Completion Of Their Tender Offer For Euro Disney S.C.A.'s Shares
PARIS, June 13, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Following the completion of the tender offer for Euro Disney S.C.A.'s shares, EDL Holding Company, LLC, Euro Disney Investments S.A.S. and EDL Corporation S.A.S. (the "Bidders") now hold 97.08% of the shares and will implement on June 19, 2017 a mandatory buy-out of the shares that the Bidders do not own.
The AMF published today a notice which specifies that the date of implementation of the mandatory buy-out of Euro Disney S.C.A.'s shares that the Bidders do not own will be June 19, 2017. The trading of Euro Disney S.C.A.'s shares on Euronext Paris has been suspended today before the market opening.
The mandatory buy-out will apply to all Euro Disney S.C.A.'s shares that the Bidders do not own, i.e 22,661,121 shares on the basis of a share capital of 783,364,900 shares.
The compensation for the shares subject to the mandatory buy-out will equal that of the price of the tender offer.
Upon the closing by Euroclear France of the affiliates' accounts (scheduled for June 19, 2017), the custody account-keeping institutions will require from BNP Paribas Securities Services, acting as the custody account-keeper appointed by the Bidders, the payment of the compensation for the shares registered in their books not owned by the Bidders and which are therefore subject to the mandatory buy-out, and will credit the accounts of the shareholders with the compensation payment due to them.
Compensation payments not requested by the custody account-keeping institutions on behalf of the beneficiaries will be kept by BNP Paribas Securities Services for a period of ten years after the mandatory buy-out after which they will be transferred to the Caisse des Dépôts et Consignations. Such compensation payments may be claimed at any time by their respective beneficiaries, subject to a thirty-year statute of limitations, after which such funds will become the property of the French Republic.
Euro Disney S.C.A.'s shares will be delisted on June 19, 2017 after the closing of the markets, the date of implementation of the mandatory buy-out.
