纽约和东京，2024年12月18日 /PRNewswire/ - Pixie Dust Technologies, Inc.（"Pixie Dust"）特此通知，纽约梅隆银行（"BNY"）于2024年12月13日发布的公告，关于终止Pixie Dust美国存托凭证（"ADR"）计划。请参见BNY的链接公司行动通知，其中详细说明了自2025年3月14日起生效的终止，以及希望将其ADR兑换为基础Pixie Dust普通股的ADR持有人的适用程序。
In addition to the information provided by BNY, Pixie Dust notes the following requirement under Japanese law:
除了BNY提供的信息外，Pixie Dust还指出根据日本法律的以下要求：
Japanese law requires that any Foreign Investor (as defined under the Japanese Foreign Exchange and Foreign Trade Act (FEFTA)) wishing to receive delivery of Shares upon surrender of American Depositary Shares must obtain pre-clearance from the applicable Japanese governmental authority prior to accepting that delivery. The applicable governmental authority may take up to 30 days to respond to applications for that pre-clearance. Accordingly, ADS holders that are Foreign Investors wishing to surrender American Depositary Shares for the purpose of withdrawal of deposited Shares should apply or advise the persons to whom they intend to direct delivery of Shares to apply for pre-clearance at least 30 days in advance. The Depositary will not accept surrender of American Depositary Shares for the purpose of withdrawal of Shares until it receives assurances satisfactory to it that any required pre-clearance for delivery of the Shares to be withdrawn to a Foreign Investor has been obtained.
日本法律规定，任何希望在交回美国存托股份后接收股票的外国投资者（根据日本《外汇及外国贸易法》（FEFTA）的定义）必须在接受该交付之前获得相关日本政府机关的预先批准。相关政府机关可能需要最多30天才能对预先批准的申请作出回应。因此，作为外国投资者的ADS持有人希望为了提取已存放股票而交回美国存托股份的，应提前至少30天申请或提醒他们希望指向的股票交付的相关人员申请预先批准。在获得满意的保险以确认向外国投资者交付需提取的股票所需的任何预先批准已获得之前，存托机构将不接受美国存托股份的交回以提取股票的申请。
