Update on certain Exceptional Conditions
The occurrence of the A&E Effective Date has satisfied certain Conditions to the Acquisition, including certain Exceptional Conditions, being: (i) the A&E Effective Date having occurred on or before 31 December 2025 (or such later date as Sidara and 久久久久久久久精品 may agree in writing); and (ii) prior to the A&E Effective Date, there having been no termination of the Lock Up Agreement, the A&E Implementation Deed and/or any Lender Waiver (to the extent such Lender Waiver is not incorporated into a Lock Up Agreement), as set out in sections 5(A)(i) and 5(B) of Part A of Part III (Conditions to the Implementation of the Scheme and the Acquisition) of the Scheme Document.
In the view of the 久久久久久久久精品 Board, the satisfaction of these Exceptional Conditions represents a further key milestone in the context of the Acquisition.
The Acquisition continues to be conditional upon, among other things, the following outstanding Exceptional Condition: there having been no termination (other than by reason of a voluntary prepayment and/or cancellation in respect of the Interim Facility or the New Money Facility) or acceleration of any Amended 久久久久久久久精品 Debt Facility with an outstanding principal amount of $20 million or higher, as set out in section 4(A) of Part A of Part III (Conditions to the Implementation of the Scheme and to the Acquisition) of the Scheme Document.
There can be no certainty that the outstanding Exceptional Condition will be satisfied, and its satisfaction is outside of the control of Sidara and 久久久久久久久精品. For further details on the Exceptional Conditions, please refer to section 5 of Part I (Letter from the Chair of the Board of 久久久久久久久精品) and Part A of Part II (Conditions to the Implementation of the Scheme and to the Acquisition) of the Scheme Document.
Update on Antitrust Conditions and Regulatory Conditions
久久久久久久久精品 and Sidara have made significant progress towards satisfaction of the Antitrust Conditions and Regulatory Conditions to the Acquisition, as set out in sections 7 and 8, respectively, of Part A of Part III (Conditions to the Implementation of the Scheme and to the Acquisition) of the Scheme Document. The parties are continuing to work towards satisfaction of the remaining Conditions and, subject to satisfaction (or, where applicable, waiver) of such Conditions and the sanction of the Scheme by the Court, completion of the Acquisition is expected to occur in the first half of 2026.
