Alinta Limited 02

The Takeovers Panel advises that it has accepted an undertaking from Alinta Group Holdings Pty Limited (a wholly owned subsidiary of Alinta Limited) and Alinta Limited in relation to an application dated 3 April 2006 (see TP06/33) by The Australian Gas Light Company in relation to the bid by Alinta for AGL. On the basis of Alinta's undertaking to provide additional and corrective information, the Panel will conclude the proceedings.

Patrick Corporation Limited 02

These are the Panel’s reasons for declining to commence proceedings in relation to an application from Patrick which would have required Toll to withhold dispatch of its Seventh Supplementary Bidder’s Statement for two weeks from the date it gave it to Patrick, and to extend the closing date of its bid to a month after the date of dispatch of the Seventh Supplementary Bidder’s Statement. Toll offered the Panel an undertaking to extend the closing date of its offers to at least one month after the date of dispatch of its Seventh Supplementary Bidder’s Statement and to offer a withdrawal right to any Patrick shareholder who had accepted the Toll offer on or prior to the date Toll announced the Seventh Supplementary Bidder’s Statement.
