SAN FRANCISCO and REDWOOD CITY, Calif. and SURESNES, France, July 26, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Talend (NASDAQ: TLND) (the "Company") today announced that, at an ordinary and extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, its shareholders voted to approve a series of transactions that will result in the Company structurally, but not operationally, redomiciling in the Netherlands following and subject to notably the consummation of Thoma Bravo's tender offer. Shareholders also voted to approve the appointments of Amy Coleman Redenbaugh, Kenneth Virnig, Mike Hoffmann, Elizabeth Yates, David Murphy, Kristin Nimsger and Jim Hagan to the Talend Board of Directors subject to the consummation of Thoma Bravo's tender offer. In connection with the appointment of the director candidates and subject to the same condition precedent, Nora Denzel, Elizabeth Fetter, Thierry Sommelet, Elissa Fink, and Ryan Kearny have agreed to resign from their positions on the Talend Board.  

As previously announced, Thoma Bravo has launched a tender offer to acquire all of the outstanding ordinary shares and American Depositary Shares ("ADSs") of Talend for $66.00 per ordinary share and ADS (each ADS representing one ordinary share) in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes. The tender offer is being made pursuant to the memorandum of understanding between Talend and Thoma Bravo dated March 10, 2021.

"This approval from shareholders represents a significant milestone toward completing the transaction with Thoma Bravo, and on behalf of the Board of Directors, I thank shareholders for their strong support," said Steve Singh, Chairman of the Board of Talend. "We are confident that the transaction is in the best interests of our company and all stakeholders, and we look forward to completing it and delivering shareholders the compelling and certain cash value of Thoma Bravo's tender offer."

The tender offer is scheduled to expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on July 28, 2021, unless extended or terminated. The closing of the tender offer is subject to the valid tender of ordinary shares and ADSs of Talend representing – together with ordinary shares and ADSs of Talend beneficially owned by Thoma Bravo, if any – at least 80% of the fully diluted ordinary shares and ADSs.

The tender offer is expected to close in the third quarter of 2021 and the redomiciling and related transactions are expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2021. As part of the closing of the tender offer and completion of the redomiciling and related transactions, any ordinary shares or ADSs not tendered would ultimately receive an amount in cash, with respect to each such non-tendered ordinary share and ADS, equal to the price per ordinary share and ADS as paid in the tender offer.  In connection with these transactions, Talend's existing French activities, including assets, liabilities and employees, will be first transferred to a new wholly-owned French subsidiary. Additionally, as part of the completion of these transactions, Talend's ADSs will no longer be listed on any public market and Talend will become a privately held company.

The final voting results will be reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission following certification by Talend's inspector of elections.
