[ SEC, October 12, 1998 ]
COMMISSION RELEASE ADOPTING TENDER OFFER RULES, REPORTS TO BE FILED BY CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND ISSUANCE/SALE OF SECURITIES ABROAD
To further the objectives of the Commission's full disclosure program the Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission") announces the adoption of the following rules governing tender offers, reports to be filed by certain beneficial owners and the issuance/sale of securities abroad:
The Commission expressed its concerns with the practice of "back door listing" where control is acquired of a company listed on the Philippine Stock Exchange in SEC Memorandum Circular No. 6 dated October 21, 1996. Consistent with this Memo Circular, the proposed tender offer rules require a tender offer to be made in all cases when a controlling interest in a listed security is acquired through privately-negotiated purchases from majority shareholders. The Commission believes that the proposed tender offer rules will provide important new protection for shareholders of registered companies.
With the adoption of these rules, the Commission is rescinding the following Memorandum Circulars which have heretofore governed back door listing and issuance of securities abroad:
1. SEC-BED Memorandum Circular No. 2, Series of 1994 dated February 2, 1994 (Issuance/Sale of Securities Abroad)
2. SEC Memorandum Circular No. 6, Series of 1996 dated October 21, 1996 (Back Door Listing)
The new rules shall take effect fifteen (15) days after publication in two newspapers of general circulation in the Philippines.
Adopted: 12 October 1998

1. RSA Rule 33(a)-1 :Tender Offer RulesThe Tender Offer Rules establish standards for the dissemination of the offer and for the pro-rating of acquisition of shares in the event more shares are tendered than are desired by the acquiring company. The provisions of the proposed rules are essential to ensuring equal access to the tender offer and fair treatment of all shareholders who wish to tender their shares.
2. RSA Rule 32(a)-1 :Reports to be filed by Certain Beneficial Owners
3. RSA Rule 6(b)-1 :Issuance/Sale of Securities Abroad:Exemption from Filing Requirements
The Commission expressed its concerns with the practice of "back door listing" where control is acquired of a company listed on the Philippine Stock Exchange in SEC Memorandum Circular No. 6 dated October 21, 1996. Consistent with this Memo Circular, the proposed tender offer rules require a tender offer to be made in all cases when a controlling interest in a listed security is acquired through privately-negotiated purchases from majority shareholders. The Commission believes that the proposed tender offer rules will provide important new protection for shareholders of registered companies.
With the adoption of these rules, the Commission is rescinding the following Memorandum Circulars which have heretofore governed back door listing and issuance of securities abroad:
1. SEC-BED Memorandum Circular No. 2, Series of 1994 dated February 2, 1994 (Issuance/Sale of Securities Abroad)
2. SEC Memorandum Circular No. 6, Series of 1996 dated October 21, 1996 (Back Door Listing)
The new rules shall take effect fifteen (15) days after publication in two newspapers of general circulation in the Philippines.
Adopted: 12 October 1998
