notice to u.s. persons holding syngenta shares and to holders of adss

the swiss offer described in the documents available on this website is being made for the registered shares of syngenta ltd, switzerland (syngenta), a swiss company whose shares are listed on the six swiss exchange (six), and is subject to swiss disclosure and procedural requirements, which are different from those of the united states (u.s.). the swiss offer is being made in the u.s. pursuant to section 14(d) and section 14(e) of, and regulation 14d and regulation 14e under, the u.s. securities exchange act of 1934, as amended (the u.s. exchange act), subject to the exemptions provided by rule 14d-1(d) under the u.s. exchange act, and otherwise in accordance with the requirements of swiss law. accordingly, the swiss offer is subject to disclosure and other procedural requirements, including with respect to withdrawal rights (which may or may not apply), settlement procedures and timing of payments that are different from those applicable under u.s. domestic tender offer procedures and laws. holders of registered shares of syngenta (syngenta shares) who are resident in the u.s., including holders who are u.s. holders within the meaning of rule 14d-1(d) under the u.s. exchange act (u.s. persons), are encouraged to consult with their own swiss advisors regarding the swiss offer.

the pre-announcement available on this website does not constitute the swiss offer. chemchina or a designated direct or indirect subsidiary thereof which launches the swiss offer (such entity the offeror) will disseminate an offer prospectus (with full terms and conditions of the offer) as required by applicable law (the offer prospectus), and the shareholders of syngenta should review the offer prospectus and all other documents relating to the swiss offer carefully. the swiss offer may not be accepted before publication of the offer prospectus and expiration of a cooling-off period of ten (10) trading days on the six (if not extended by the swiss takeover board), which will run from such trading day immediately after the publication date of the offer prospectus.

in accordance with the laws of switzerland and subject to applicable regulatory requirements, chemchina and its subsidiaries or their nominees or brokers (acting as agents for chemchina or any of its subsidiaries) may from time to time after the date hereof, and other than pursuant to the swiss offer, directly or indirectly purchase, or arrange to purchase, syngenta shares or any securities that are convertible into, exchangeable for or exercisable for syngenta shares. these purchases, or arrangements to purchase, may occur either in the open market at prevailing prices or in private transactions at negotiated prices and shall comply with applicable laws and regulations in switzerland and applicable u.s. securities laws. any such purchases will not be made at prices higher than the offer price or on terms more favorable than those offered pursuant to the swiss offer unless the offer price is increased accordingly. any information about such purchases or arrangements to purchase will be publicly disclosed in the u.s. on to the extent that such information is made public in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations of switzerland. in addition, the financial advisors to chemchina, the offeror and syngenta may also engage in ordinary course trading activities in securities of syngenta, which may include purchases or arrangements to purchase such securities.

it may be difficult for u.s. persons holding syngenta shares to enforce their rights and any claim arising out of u.s. securities laws, since each of chemchina, the offeror and syngenta is located in a non-u.s. jurisdiction, and some or all of their officers and directors may be residents of a non-u.s. jurisdiction. u.s. persons holding syngenta shares may not be able to sue a non-u.s. company or its officers or directors in a u.s. or non-u.s. court for violations of the u.s. securities laws. further, it may be difficult to compel a non-u.s. company and its affiliates to subject themselves to a u.s. court's judgment.

neither the u.s. securities and exchange commission (sec) nor any securities commission of any state of the u.s. has (a) approved or disapproved of the swiss offer; (b) passed upon the merits or fairness of the swiss offer; or (c) passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of the disclosure in the swiss offer documents. any representation to the contrary is a criminal offence in the u.s.
