The offer to acquire the investment certificates, provided for in the fourth paragraph of Article L. 229-2, is the subject of a notice inserted in a medium authorised to receive legal announcements in the department of the registered office and in the Bulletin des annonces légales obligatoires when the company’s shares are admitted to trading on a regulated market or when its shares are not all in registered form.
This notice shall include:
1° The corporate name and form of the company, the address of the registered office and the amount of share capital;
2° The number of investment certificates whose acquisition is contemplated;
3° The price offered per investment certificate and accepted by the special meeting of investment certificate holders;
4° The period during which the acquisition offer is maintained and the place where it may be accepted. This period may not be less than twenty days.
The publicity provided for in the first paragraph is replaced for holders of registered investment certificates by the sending to each of them of a registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt, at the company’s expense. This letter shall contain the same information as the notice.
The period within which holders of investment certificates may sell their securities shall be thirty days from the last date of the publication formalities.
