Transaction Update

 

Geelong, Australia, 31 October 2023:

 

Carbon Revolution Limited (Carbon Revolution), a Tier 1 OEM supplier and a leading global manufacturer of lightweight advanced technology carbon fibre wheels, announces that it has received confirmation from Nasdaq Capital Market that the MergeCo Shares to be issued pursuant to the proposed acquisition of Carbon Revolution by Carbon Revolution plc (a public limited company incorporated in Ireland with registered number 607450) (previously known as Poppetell Limited) have been approved for listing on Nasdaq Capital Market.

 

Implementation of the Transaction will occur on 3 November 2023 (New York time), subject to confirmation of satisfaction of outstanding conditions.

 

Final Merger Ratio

 

The Scheme provides for Carbon Revolution Shareholders to be issued 0.00643121435972925 MergeCo Shares per Carbon Revolution Share that they held on the Scheme Record Date (being 7.00pm (Melbourne time) on 23 October 2023), on the Implementation Date (expected to be 3 November 2023 (New York time).

 

DTC Election Process

 

As previously disclosed in the Scheme Booklet, in order to trade MergeCo (Carbon Revolution plc) Shares through Nasdaq, shareholders must hold them through a DTC Participant (a broker or financial institution which can facilitate trading in US listed securities, including MergeCo Shares).

 

Shareholders were previously given an opportunity to make a DTC Election prior to the initial election deadline on 16 October 2023.  The initial DTC Election process period has now expired.

 

Shareholders who made a valid DTC Election by 16 October, will need to issue a Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian instruction (“DWAC”) instruction to their DTC Participant after Implemention of the Transaction, and before the close of business on Thursday, 9 November 2023 (New York time).  In relation to this DWAC instruction please note:

 

 

•

Instruct your DTC Participant to initiate a DWAC instruction for the precise number of MergeCo Shares that you will receive under the Scheme (calculated using the final merger ratio above).

•

Provide your DTC Participant with your “SRN” or “HIN”.

•

You may wish to ask your DTC Participant if there will be a fee associated with this.

Shareholders who made a valid DTC Election by the initial deadline on 16 October 2023 will be able to trade their MergeCo Shares shortly after Implementation of the Transaction once their nominated DTC Participant has completed a valid DWAC instruction for their MergeCo Shares and the instruction has been processed. Please note that there may be a processing delay from when a Shareholder first requests their DTC Participant to initiate the DWAC instruction, and when that instruction has been processed and the Shareholder’s MergeCo Shares have been delivered into their DTC Participant’s account enabling the Shareholder to trade their MergeCo Shares on Nasdaq.

 

In relation to Shareholders who did not make a valid DTC Election by the initial deadline on 16 October 2023 (and those who did, but do not issue a valid DWAC instruction by Thursday, 9 November 2023 (New York time)) their MergeCo Shares will be held in an account operated by MergeCo’s new registry, Computershare, called the “Exchange Agent Account”. MergeCo will maintain this account until 3 May 2024 (and potentially longer if MergeCo elects to extend that deadline). MergeCo’s new registry Computershare will send these Shareholders a “Letter of Transmittal” notice by mail, or an “Exchange Notification” email, giving them another opportunity to make a DTC Election or to elect to retain their shares directly on MergeCo’s register. If Shareholders elect to retain their MergeCo Shares on MergeCo’s register, they will not be able to trade them on Nasdaq until they have completed a valid DTC Election and their nominated DTC Participant has completed a valid DWAC instruction.

 

DTC Elections may be submitted by returning the completed notice in the Letter of Transmittal, or by logging on to the dedicated online platform specified in that notice (this platform will go live shortly after the expected Implementation of the Transaction on 3 November 2023).

 

The Company thanks shareholders for their support and patience through this period ahead of the US listing.
