Mobileye : Announces Extension of Cash Tender Offer

JERUSALEM, June 22, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- (NYSE: MBLY) - Mobileye N.V. ('Mobileye' or the 'Company'), the global leader in Advanced Driver Assistance Systems and autonomous driving technologies, today announced that the previously announced all cash tender offer by Cyclops Holdings, LLC ('Cyclops'), a wholly owned subsidiary of Intel Corporation ('Intel'), to purchase all of the outstanding ordinary shares of Mobileye, has been extended. The tender offer is now scheduled to expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on July 20, 2017, unless the tender offer is further extended or earlier terminated, in either case, pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 12, 2017, by and among Mobileye, Intel and Cyclops (the 'Purchase Agreement').

American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, the depositary for the tender offer, has advised the Company that as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 21, 2017, the previously scheduled expiration time, 112,004,732 Mobileye ordinary shares (excluding Mobileye ordinary shares tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures), representing approximately 50.31% of the outstanding Mobileye ordinary shares, have been validly tendered pursuant to the tender offer and not properly withdrawn and an additional 17,270,830 Mobileye ordinary shares, representing approximately 7.76% of the outstanding Mobileye ordinary shares, have been tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures. Mobileye shareholders who have already tendered their ordinary shares of Mobileye do not have to re-tender their shares or take any other action as a result of the extension of the expiration date of the tender offer.

Completion of the tender offer remains subject to additional conditions described in the tender offer statement on Schedule TO filed by Cyclops Holdings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the 'SEC') on April 5, 2017 (as amended and supplemented, the 'Schedule TO'). Such conditions include the receipt of regulatory approvals in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions and at least 95% of Mobileye's outstanding shares (as such threshold may be lowered pursuant to the Purchase Agreement) being validly tendered and not withdrawn prior to the expiration of the tender offer (including any further extensions). The tender offer will continue to be extended until all conditions are satisfied or waived, or until the tender offer is terminated, in either case pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement and as described in the Schedule TO.
