Pro Rata Acceptance, Subsequent Offering Period, and Mini-Tenders

What this video covers

• When pro rata acceptance is mandatory (partial, oversubscribed offers) and when it never applies (any-and-all offers, undersubscribed partials)
• Why pro rata treatment extends across the entire offer period, not a separate 10-day window, and what that means for early versus late tenders
• What a subsequent offering period is, its strict 3-business-day minimum, and why it is available only for any-and-all offers never for partials
• Why there are no withdrawal rights during a subsequent offering period, and how this distinguishes it from an initial-period extension
• What defines a mini-tender (less than 5% of the class, measured post-consummation, with aggregation counting any existing ownership)
• Which third-party tender offer rules mini-tenders escape (formal filings, all holders, best price, proration) and which universal rules still apply
• Why anti-fraud provisions, the 20-business-day minimum offering period, and the target's 10-business-day position statement bind every tender offer including mini-tenders
