U.S. Disclaimer - Unsponsored ADR (American Depositary Receipts)
Effective October 10, 2008, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), by revising U.S. Exchange Act Rule 12g3-2(b), made it possible for depository institutions or banks to establish ADR programs without the participation of a non-U.S. issuer (a so called "Unsponsored ADR").
An ADR or American Depositary Receipt is a negotiable receipt, similar to a stock certificate, which is issued by a U.S. bank or depository to evidence an ordinary share of a non-U.S. issuer that has been deposited with the U.S. bank or depository.
ADRs permit a U.S. investor to purchase in a U.S. market an interest in a non-U.S. issuer's securities.
An ADR program, which is unsponsored, is set up without the non-U.S. issuer's cooperation or even its consent.
Mainfreight Limited does not authorize, endorse, support or encourage the creation of Unsponsored ADR facilities in respect of its securities and in any event disclaims any liability whatsoever arising out of or in connection with an Unsponsored ADR.
