CHICAGO, May 16, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Cision (NYSE: CISN) announced today the expiration and results of its previously announced exchange offer (the "Exchange Offer") and consent solicitation (the "Consent Solicitation") relating to certain of its outstanding warrants.

Cision expects to accept all validly tendered warrants for exchange and settlement on May 18, 2018.
In addition, pursuant to the Consent Solicitation, Cision received the approval of approximately 94.7% of the outstanding Warrants to amend (the "Warrant Amendment") the warrant agreement governing all of the warrants, which exceeds the majority of outstanding warrants required to effect the Warrant Amendment. Cision expects to execute the Warrant Amendment concurrently with the settlement of the Exchange Offer.
This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, the securities described herein and is also not a solicitation of the related consents.
