IIJ Announces Expected Termination of Offering
in Japan and Withdrawal of Proposed Japanese Listing
TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 17, 2005--Internet Initiative Japan Inc. (IIJ,
NASDAQ: IIJI) today announced that as of the closing of the subscription period
for its initial public share offering in Japan today, fewer than 300 prospective
new investors had submitted purchase orders. As a consequence, IIJ will not be
able to fulfill the listing requirements of the Mothers market of the Tokyo
Stock Exchange and will therefore be unable to satisfy the conditions to closing
of this offering as set forth in the underwriting agreement relating thereto.
IIJ expects to terminate this offering and withdraw its listing application
early next week. IIJ will seek a domestic listing in Japan at a future date.
Any shares sold in connection with the proposed offering have not been and
will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act") and may not be offered or sold in the United
States absent registration under the Securities Act or an applicable exemption
from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
Statements made in this press release regarding IIJ's or management's
intentions, beliefs, expectations, or predictions for the future are
forward-looking statements that are based on IIJ's and managements' current
expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections about its business and the
industry. These forward-looking statements are subject to various risks,
uncertainties and other factors that could cause IIJ's actual results to differ
materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement.
