NEW BRIGHTON, Minn.,
Nov. 20, 2019 /PRNewswire/
-- APi Group Corporation (the "Company") (OTC: JJAQF;
LSE: JTWO) announces today that, effective as of November 20, 2019, certain trades of its ordinary
shares on the over-the-counter ("OTC") market in the United States will be eligible for
settlement through the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation
("DTC") ("DTC Eligibility").
Currently, most of the Company's ordinary shares are held as
depositary interests in the Certificateless Registry for Electronic
Share Transfer operated by Euroclear ("CREST") in the name of one
or more CREST participants. Following DTC Eligibility, depositary
interests underlying the ordinary shares issued in the Company's
initial placing in October of 2017 ("IPO Shares") may be
transferred from a CREST participant account, in the UK, to a DTC
participant account, in the US, on behalf of each beneficial
holder. The CUSIP number for the ordinary shares will be G0473C
104.
Investors and beneficial holders of IPO Shares should be
receiving notification in relation to the DTC Eligibility, as well
as instructions on how to move their position from a CREST
participant account into a DTC participant account.
CREST participants may contact the Manager of Global
Transactions at Computershare, the Company's agent, on +44 (0) 370
889 3129 or by e-mail at
!ALLUKGlobalTransactionTeam@computershare.co.uk with any
questions.
As previously announced by the Company, the Company expects to
list its ordinary shares on the New York Stock Exchange under the
symbol APG and change its jurisdiction of incorporation to
Delaware in connection with the
NYSE listing, which is expected to occur late in the first quarter
of 2020. The Company's ordinary shares and warrants, which
are admitted to trading on the London Stock Exchange, were
suspended from trading on the London Stock Exchange on September 3, 2019 when the Company announced its
intention to acquire APi Group, Inc. In connection with its
anticipated NYSE listing, the Company will request for the listing
of its ordinary shares and warrants to be cancelled from the
Official List of the FCA and for the admission to trading of its
securities to be cancelled from the Main Market of the London Stock
Exchange. The Company's ordinary shares continue to be traded
on the OTC market in the U.S. under the symbol JJAQF.
