Takeover bid by GUD Holdings Limited for Breville Group Limited Extension of offer period

G.U.D. Holdings Limited has today announced that, due to the ACCC’s revised timetable for a decision on the matter (which is now not expected until mid-December), it has extended its offer for all the ordinary shares in Breville Group Limited so that it will now close on 30 December 2009.

A copy of the formal notice of variation, together with an accompanying letter to be sent to Breville shareholders, is attached.

For the purposes of ASX Listing Rule 3.2:

  • at the date of the offer (26 October 2009), GUD had a relevant interest in 19.4% of Breville ordinary shares; and

  • at the date of this offer extension (30 November 2009), GUD has a relevant interest in 19.6% of Breville ordinary shares. In addition, approximately 27.5% of Breville ordinary shares are the subject of acceptance instructions in the Institutional Acceptance Facility. In aggregate, this represents 47.1% of all Breville shares on issue.
