Victor Company of Japan, Limited (“JVC”) and KENWOOD Corporation (“KENWOOD”) are Japanese companies. The offer is subject to Japanese disclosure requirements that are different from those of the United States. Financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with Japanese accounting standards that may not be comparable to the financial statements of United States companies.
It may be difficult for you to enforce your rights and any claim you may have arising under the U.S. federal securities laws, since the companies are located in Japan, and some or all of their officers or directors are residents of Japan. You may not be able to sue the companies or their officers or directors in a Japanese court for violations of the U.S. securities laws. Finally, it may be difficult to compel the companies and their affiliates to subject themselves to a U.S. court's judgment.
You should be aware that JVC KENWOOD Holdings, Inc. may purchase shares of JVC and KENWOOD otherwise than under the share transfer, such as in open market or privately negotiated purchases.
The share transfer described herein is subject to approval at general meetings of the shareholders of KENWOOD and JVC, the fulfillment of all conditions to the share transfer, including all domestic and international regulatory reporting requirements and approvals, and the absence of any material event that may interfere with the share transfer.
