Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”) in accordance with the Companies (Jersey) Law 1991, with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent and changing its name to “Janus Henderson Group Ltd.”.

 

 

 

 

 

  

The Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Janus Henderson US (Holdings) Inc. (“Janus US”), previously registered Janus US’s 5.450% Senior Notes due 2034 (the “Notes”) and the guarantee thereof by the Company (the “Guarantee”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form S-4 (Registration Statement No. 333-283305), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 18, 2024 (as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement, filed with the SEC on December 13, 2024, and Amendment No. 2 to the Registration Statement, filed with the SEC on January 21, 2025, the “Registration Statement”). As of the fiscal year beginning on July 1, 2026, the Notes and the Guarantee were held of record by less than 300 persons. As a result, pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the duty of the Company to file reports under Section 15 of the Exchange Act with respect to the Notes and the Guarantee was suspended, effective as of July 1, 2026. Janus US is exempt from the reporting requirements under Section 15(d) pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 12h-5. This Form 15 is not intended as an admission that Janus US was previously subject to the reporting requirements under Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act or that Exchange Act Rule 12h-5 is not applicable.
