Notice to US Investors
The Possible Offer relates to shares in an English company and is subject to UK procedural and disclosure requirements that are different from those of the United States (“US”).
Any financial statements or other financial information included in this Website has been prepared in accordance with accounting standards applicable in the UK and may not be comparable to financial information of US companies or companies whose financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the US.
It may be difficult for shareholders in the US to enforce their rights and any claim arising out of the US federal securities laws, since the Company is located in a non-US jurisdiction, and some or all of its officers and directors are residents of non-US jurisdictions. US shareholders may not be able to sue a non-US company or its officers or directors in a non-US court for violations of US securities laws. Further, it may be difficult to compel a non-US company and its affiliates to subject themselves to a US court’s judgement.
You should be aware that Starlight Bidco Limited may purchase or arrange to purchase Balanced Commercial Property Trust Limited’s shares otherwise than under any offer or scheme related to the Possible Offer, such as in the open market or privately negotiated purchases.
Basis of access
The Information is made available in good faith and does not constitute an offer to sell or otherwise dispose of or an invitation or solicitation of any offer to purchase or subscribe for any securities pursuant to the Possible Offer or otherwise in any jurisdiction in which such offer or solicitation is unlawful.
The Information has been prepared for the purposes of complying with English law and the Code and the Information may not be the same as that which would have been disclosed if this information had been prepared in accordance with the laws and regulations of any jurisdiction outside of England and Wales.
