Old Mutual Extends Tender Offer for UAMC
New Expiration Date is September 18, 2000
No downward Price Adjustment if Tender Offer is completed in
September
Boston (September 12, 2000) - Old Mutual plc announced today
that it has extended the expiration date for its cash tender
offer for all outstanding shares of common stock of United
Asset Management Corporation (NYSE: UAM). The new
expiration date is Monday, September 18, 2000 at 5.00pm EDT.
Under the merger agreement, the tender offer price of $25
net per share is subject to downward adjustment in the event
that UAM's revenues from assets under management, excluding
the effects of market movements, decline below a specified
level prior to completion of the offer. Based upon
information received from UAM, Old Mutual has determined
that there will be no downward price adjustment if the
tender offer is completed during the month of September.
The potential downward adjustment will be recomputed if the
tender offer is completed subsequent to September.
As of the previous expiration date of 5.00pm EDT on
September 11, 2000, approximately 52,796,285 shares of UAM
common stock had been tendered, representing approximately
seventy-one percent (71%) of UAM common stock on a fully-
diluted basis.
