This Amendment No. 3 (“Amendment No. 3”) to Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 amends the Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement (the “Statement”) previously filed by each of Viatel Holding (Bermuda) Limited (referred to herein as “Company” or “subject company” or “filing person”) and VTL, Inc. (referred to herein as “VTL” or “filing person”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on December 19, 2007, and amended on January 11, 2008 and January 31, 2008. This Amendment No. 3 is being filed pursuant to Rule 13e-3(d)(3) as a final amendment to the Statement to report the results of the transactions described below.
At the Special General Meeting of the Company’s shareholders held on February 20, 2008, 2,653,857 of the Company’s common shares, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Shares”) were present in person or by proxy. The requisite majority of Common Shares represented at the meeting voted to approve each of three resolutions submitted for shareholder approval, including: (i) a resolution authorizing a 1-for-300 consolidation of the Company’s Common Shares into new Common Shares par value of $3.00 per share (the “Share Consolidation”), and the payment of cash by the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary VTL, Inc. to the Company’s shareholders for fractional share entitlements arising under the Share Consolidation based on a value of $0.44 per Common Share before the Share Consolidation, (ii) a resolution authorizing implementation of certain transfer restrictions in respect of the Company’s Common Shares to enable the Company to restrict the number of holders of its Common Shares, so as not to give rise to any reporting obligations under Section 12(g) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and (iii) a resolution to amend the Company’s Bye-laws to permit electronic delivery of certain documents and information by the Company to its shareholders. The Share Consolidation became effective at the close of business on February 20, 2008. The Company has filed, or expects to file simultaneously herewith, a Form 15 with the Commission in order to terminate its status as a reporting company under the Exchange Act because, as a result of the Share Consolidation, it has fewer than 300 holders of record (as determined in accordance with Rule 12g5-1 promulgated under the Exchange Act).
