Upon completion of the SSA, the Offeror would hold 43.75% and be obligated to make a Mandatory General Offer (MGO) for all shares not owned. The MGO would be HK$1.132/share (an 11% premium to last close). The Offer price will not be increased.</p>
<p>The MGO is subject to a 50% (of all shares out) acceptance condition.</p>
<p>The SSA was completed on the <a href="https://www1.hkexnews.hk/listedco/listconews/sehk/2021/0111/2021011100722.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">11 January</a> and the <a href="https://www1.hkexnews.hk/listedco/listconews/sehk/2021/0117/2021011700009.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Composite Doc</a> was despatched last night. The first close is the 8 February.</p>
<p>The Offeror has received 14 irrevocable undertakings (IU) from shareholders to accept the Offer in respect of 1,377,008,000 shares or 52.83% of shares out. Therefore, once the IU shareholders tender, the acceptance condition will have been met. Accordingly, the Offer is expected to become unconditional on or prior to the seventh day after the date of this Composite Doc.</p>
<p>The percentage of the Offer Shares made up by all of the IU shares is ~93.92%, therefore compulsory acquisition under section 88 of the Cayman Islands Companies Act and Rule 2.11 of the Takeovers Code will have been met.</p>
<p>As always, more below the fold.</p>
