However, market participants are requested to make disclosures as if the City Code applied and as if Catlin were in an "offer period".
Accordingly, public disclosures consistent with the provisions of Rule 8 of the City Code should be released directly through a Regulatory Information Service and should not be emailed to the Takeover Panel.
