Mahindra Satyam ADRs Trading Over-the-Counter
Effective Today, October 14, 2010
New Ticker Symbol: SAYCY
Hyderabad, India, October 14, 2010: Satyam Computer Services Ltd., now branded as Mahindra Satyam (OTC: SAYCY) today announced that trading of its American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) has been transferred from the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) to the over-the-counter (OTC) market effective today, Thursday October 14, 2010. The new ticker symbol for the ADRs is SAYCY and real-time quotes for the ADRs are now available on
www.otcmarkets.com.
Commenting on the move, Mr. Vineet Nayyar, Chairman, Mahindra Satyam, said, “Although we are moving our ADRs to the OTC market and the ticker symbol has changed, nothing will change with the ADRs themselves. If you own the ADRs now, you will continue to own them. Your broker can execute trades of our ADRs in the OTC market where they will be classified in the Pink Sheets Current Information category, just like the ADRs of many other well-known international companies. We remain committed to our US investors and we are as keen as ever to serve the needs of US customers.”
ADR holders also retain the right to redeem their Mahindra Satyam ADRs and receive the underlying equity shares, which will continue to be listed on the principal Indian stock exchanges. An ADR holder wants to redeem their ADRs should contact their broker. Brokers should in turn contact Citibank NA's Capital Market Solutions team at +1 (212) 723-5435 or
citiadr@citi.com.
The Company is also in the process of restating its prior US GAAP financial statements. As previously announced on September 24, 2010, the ADRs are being delisted from the NYSE due to the Company’s late SEC filings. On September 29, 2010, the Company submitted its audited financial results as per Indian GAAP for the year ended March 31, 2009 and the year ended March 31, 2010. Because the Company is current in its local filings in India pursuant to the Orders of the Company Law Board, and will be making future filings publicly available on
www.otcmarkets.com, the Company’s OTC status for its ADRs will be designated Pink Sheets Current Information. The Company will also continue to furnish information to investors through the SEC’s EDGAR database, available at
www.sec.gov.
