AMCOR ANNOUNCES PLANS TO DELIST FROM NASDAQ AND DEREGISTER FROM SEC
Published by claudia May 10th, 2007 in News, SEC, SOX, Section 404, Company News, Sarbox Tags: amcor limited, delisting, ken mackenzie, nasdaq stock market, sarbanes oxley act.Amcor Limited announced today that it intends to voluntarily withdraw its American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) from listing on The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC and to deregister its ADRs and its ordinary shares under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act after the recently adopted deregistration rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) become effective on June 4, 2007.
Amcor expects to file a Form 25 with the SEC in early June 2007 to effect the delisting. The NASDAQ Stock Market will suspend trading in the ADRs, each representing four Amcor ordinary shares, ten days after the de-listing application is filed.
Simultaneously with the filing of its application to delist, Amcor plans to apply to the SEC to terminate the registration of the ADRs and the ordinary shares under the Exchange Act. Upon the delisting, Amcor’s obligations to file reports with the SEC will immediately be suspended. Amcor expects that the deregistration of its ADRs and its ordinary shares will become effective and Amcor’s Exchange Act reporting obligations will be terminated 90 days after the filing with the SEC.
“The Board of Directors determined to take this action based on several factors, including the ongoing expense of preparing additional periodic reports for filing with the SEC and the substantial increase in costs to meet the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act,” stated Ken MacKenzie, Amcor’s Managing Director and CEO.
