BGC Announces Contingent Increase Of Tender Offer To Acquire GFI To $5.85/shr

(RTTNews) - BGC Partners Inc. (BGCP) announced that it has delivered an executed agreement to GFI Group Inc. (GFIG) that, if countersigned by GFI, provides that BGC would increase its fully financed, all-cash tender offer to acquire all of the outstanding shares of GFI to $5.85 per share.

In addition, BGC Partners announced that it has made an immediate and non-contingent increase to its all-cash tender offer price to $5.75 and extended the expiration date for the tender offer. If a material change to the tender offer is made, the relevant rules require the Company to extend the expiration date of the tender offer to ensure that there is sufficient time between the change and the expiration of the tender offer.

The tender offer is now scheduled to expire at 5:00 pm New York City time on January 29, 2015, unless extended. The offer was previously scheduled to expire at 5:00 pm New York City time, on January 27, 2015. BGC has given the GFI special committee and board until noon on Monday, January 19, 2015, to commence the "match period" under GFI's merger agreement with CME Group Inc. (CME) in order to accept the $5.85 per share price.

BGC's proposed revision to its cash offer of $5.85 per share represents a premium of $0.25, or approximately 4.5%, to the $5.60 per share stock and cash consideration offered by the CME/GFI Management transaction and a premium of more than 88% to the price of GFI shares on July 29, 2014, the last day prior to the announcement of the original CME/GFI Management transaction. Prior to its proposed revision, BGC's contingent tender offer price was $5.60 per share.

Howard Lutnick, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of BGC, said, "In addition, we continue to remind GFI shareholders to vote against the proposed $5.60 CME-GFI Management transaction at the January 27, 2015 special meeting of shareholders and also urge them to tender their shares into our clearly superior offer. We are prepared to move quickly to complete our fully-financed tender offer and deliver the value to which GFI shareholders are entitled."

As of 5:00 PM on Wednesday, January 14, 2015, approximately 14.0 million shares were tendered pursuant to the offer. The 14.0 million tendered shares, together with the 17.1 million shares of GFI common stock already owned by BGC, represent approximately 24.4% of GFI's outstanding shares.
