offeror (being any offeror other than an offeror in respect of which it has
been announced that its offer is, or is likely to be, solely in cash) must
make an Opening Position Disclosure following the commencement of the offer
period and, if later, following the announcement in which any paper offeror
is first identified. An Opening Position Disclosure must contain details of
the person`s interests and short positions in, and rights to subscribe for,
any relevant securities of each of (i) the offeree company and (ii) any
paper offeror(s). An Opening Position Disclosure by a person to whom Rule

Relevant persons who deal in the relevant securities of the offeree company
