Public shareholders in the United States of America (“U.S.”) should be aware that any documents relating to the Open Offer have been or will be prepared in accordance with Indian procedural and disclosure requirements, including requirements regarding the open offer timetable and timing of payments, all of which differ from those in the U.S. Any financial information included in any documents relating to the Open Offer has been or will be prepared in accordance with non-U.S. accounting standards (other than the financial information with respect to the Company) that may not be comparable to financial statements of companies in the U.S. or other companies whose financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Each public shareholder of the Target Company is urged to consult their independent professional adviser immediately regarding the tax consequences of accepting the Open Offer.

It may be difficult for U.S. holders of equity shares to enforce their rights and any claims they may have arising under the U.S. federal securities laws in connection with the open offer, since the Target Company is incorporated in a country other than the U.S., and some or all of its officers and directors may be residents of countries other than the U.S. U.S. holders of equity shares in the Target Company may not be able to sue the Target Company or its officers or directors in a non-U.S. court for violations of U.S. securities laws.

None of the documents relating to the Open Offer have been filed with or reviewed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or any U.S. state securities regulators. Neither the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission nor any U.S. state securities regulators has approved or disapproved the Open Offer or passed any comment upon the adequacy or completeness of any documentation relating to the Open Offer have been. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offence in the U.S. The securities at issue in the Open Offer have been offered in the U.S. only pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”), and therefore not be offered or sold in the U.S. in the future except pursuant to an exemption from the Securities Act or in a transaction not subject to the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
