Dealing Disclosure Requirements
Under the provisions of Rule 8.3 of the Takeover Code (the ‘Code’), if any person is, or becomes,
‘interested’ (directly or indirectly) in 1% or more of any class of ‘relevant securities’ of The
Thomson Corporation (‘Thomson’) or of Reuters Group PLC (‘Reuters’), all ‘dealings’ in any
‘relevant securities’ of those companies (including by means of an option in respect of, or a
derivative referenced to, any such ‘relevant securities’) must be publicly disclosed by no later
than 3.30 pm (London time) on the London business day following the date of the relevant
transaction. This requirement will continue until the date on which the offer becomes, or is
declared, unconditional, lapses or is otherwise withdrawn or on which the ‘offer period’ otherwise
ends. If two or more persons act together pursuant to an agreement or understanding, whether formal
or informal, to acquire an ‘interest’ in ‘relevant securities’ of Thomson or Reuters, they will be
deemed to be a single person for the purpose of Rule 8.3.
Under the provisions of Rule 8.1 of the Code, all ‘dealings’ in ‘relevant securities’ of Thomson or
Reuters by Thomson or Reuters, or by any of their respective ‘associates’, must be disclosed by no
later than 12.00 noon (London time) on the London business day following the date of the relevant
transaction.
A disclosure table, giving details of the companies in whose ‘relevant securities’ ‘dealings’
should be disclosed, and the number of such securities in issue, can be found on the Takeover
Panel’s website at www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk.
‘Interests in securities’ arise, in summary, when a person has long economic exposure, whether
conditional or absolute, to changes in the price of securities. In particular, a person will be
treated as having an ‘interest’ by virtue of the ownership or control of securities, or by virtue
of any option in respect of, or derivative referenced to, securities.
Terms in quotation marks are defined in the Code, which can also be found on the Panel’s website.
If you are in any doubt as to whether or not you are required to disclose a ‘dealing’ under Rule 8,
you should consult the Panel

Dealing Disclosure Requirements
Under the provisions of Rule 8.3 of the Takeover Code (the ‘Code’), if any person is, or becomes,
‘interested’ (directly or indirectly) in 1% or more of any class of ‘relevant securities’ of The
Thomson Corporation (‘Thomson’) or of Reuters Group PLC (‘Reuters’), all ‘dealings’ in any
‘relevant securities’ of those companies (including by means of an option in respect of, or a
derivative referenced to, any such ‘relevant securities’) must be publicly disclosed by no later
than 3.30 pm (London time) on the London business day following the date of the relevant
transaction. This requirement will continue until the date on which the offer becomes, or is
declared, unconditional, lapses or is otherwise withdrawn or on which the ‘offer period’ otherwise
ends. If two or more persons act together pursuant to an agreement or understanding, whether formal
or informal, to acquire an ‘interest’ in ‘relevant securities’ of Thomson or Reuters, they will be
deemed to be a single person for the purpose of Rule 8.3.
Under the provisions of Rule 8.1 of the Code, all ‘dealings’ in ‘relevant securities’ of Thomson or
Reuters by Thomson or Reuters, or by any of their respective ‘associates’, must be disclosed by no
later than 12.00 noon (London time) on the London business day following the date of the relevant
transaction.
A disclosure table, giving details of the companies in whose ‘relevant securities’ ‘dealings’
should be disclosed, and the number of such securities in issue, can be found on the Takeover
Panel’s website at www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk.
‘Interests in securities’ arise, in summary, when a person has long economic exposure, whether
conditional or absolute, to changes in the price of securities. In particular, a person will be
treated as having an ‘interest’ by virtue of the ownership or control of securities, or by virtue
of any option in respect of, or derivative referenced to, securities.
Terms in quotation marks are defined in the Code, which can also be found on the Panel’s website.
If you are in any doubt as to whether or not you are required to disclose a ‘dealing’ under Rule 8,
you should consult the Panel
