VANCOUVER, Dec. 9, 2009 (Canada NewsWire via COMTEX News Network) --
Maxam Opportunities Fund Limited Partnership and Maxam Opportunities Fund (International) Limited Partnership announced that they have filed take-over bid materials and have formally commenced an offer to acquire, through an acquisition entity, C.A. Bancorp Inc. (TSX: BKP). The offer will remain open until 4:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on January 12, 2010, unless withdrawn or extended. The take-over bid materials are available at www.sedar.com under C.A. Bancorp's profile.
As previously disclosed on December 3, 2009, the offer is to acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of C.A. Bancorp for $1.22 per share in cash. The offer price represents a premium of approximately 20 per cent over the volume weighted average trading price of C.A. Bancorp common shares over the 30 trading days immediately prior to December 3, 2009, and approximately 10 per cent over the closing price of C.A. Bancorp common shares on December 2, 2009, the last trading day before Maxam disclosed its intention to make the offer.
On December 7, 2009, Maxam published an advertisement summarizing the offer and filed the offer and take-over bid circular (and related documents) with Canadian securities regulatory authorities on SEDAR. Maxam will mail the offering documents to shareholders of C.A. Bancorp after Maxam receives shareholder information. Under applicable law, C.A. Bancorp is required to provide the information within 10 days of the date of the request. The request was made on December 4, 2009.
Maxam strongly encourages shareholders of C.A. Bancorp to read the offer and take-over bid circular, which contains the full terms and conditions of the offer as well as detailed instructions on how shareholders can tender their common shares to the offer.
