This announcement is for information purposes only and does not constitute an offer or an invitation to induce an offer by any person to acquire, purchase or subscribe for securities. Potential investors should read the prospectus dated 30 January 2021 (the ‘‘Prospectus’’) of Pangaea Connectivity Technology Limited (the ‘‘Company’’) for detailed information about the Company and the Share Offer described below before deciding whether or not to invest in the Offer Shares.
This announcement is not for release, publication, distribution, directly or indirectly, in or into the United States (including its territories and possessions, any state of the United States and the District of Columbia). This announcement does not constitute and is not an offer to sell or a solicitation of any offer to buy securities in Hong Kong, the United States or any other jurisdiction. The Shares have not been, and will not be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933 (as amended) (the ‘‘U.S. Securities Act’’) or any state securities laws of the United States and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration under the U.S. Securities Act or except pursuant to an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act. There is not and it is not currently intended for there to be any public offering of securities of the Company in the United States.
In connection with the Share Offer, CMBC Securities Company Limited as stabilising manager (the ‘‘Stabilising Manager’’), its affiliates or any person acting for it, on behalf of the Underwriters, may over-allocate or effect transactions with a view to stabilising or maintaining the market price of the Shares at a level higher than that which might otherwise prevail for a limited period after Listing Date. However, there is no obligation on the Stabilising Manager, its affiliates or any person acting for it to conduct any such stabilising action. Such stabilisation, which, if commenced, will be conducted at the absolute discretion of the Stabilising Manager, its affiliates or any person acting for it, and may be discontinued at any time. Any such stabilising activity is required to be brought to an end on the 30th day after the last day for the lodging of applications under the Public Offer. Such stabilisation action, if taken, may be effected in all jurisdictions where it is permissible to do so, in each case in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulatory requirements, including the Securities and Futures (Price Stabilising) Rules, as amended, made under the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Cap. 571 of the Laws of Hong Kong). For details of stabilisation, please refer to the section headed ‘‘Structure of the Share Offer — Stabilisation’’ in the Prospectus.
Potential investors should be aware that stabilising actions cannot be taken to support the price of the Shares for longer than the stabilisation period which will begin on the Listing Date and expire on the 30th day after the date of the last day for lodging applications under the Public Offer. After that date, no further stabilising action may be taken and demand for the Shares and the price of the Shares could fall.
Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalised terms used in this announcement shall have the same meanings as those defined in the Prospectus.
