Sale of G-Loot
Dear Shareholders,
We are happy to inform you that Vantura BidCo HB (the "Bidder") has declared the offer to the shareholders of G-Loot to tender all shares in G-Loot to the Bidder against consideration in cash (the "Offer") unconditional and thereby becomes owner of approximately 90.8 per cent of the shares of G-Loot. Since the Bidder became owner of more than 90 per cent of the shares of G-Loot during the initial acceptance period, the consideration will be SEK 6.95 in cash per share. Settlement is expected to commence on 3 October 2024.
Extended acceptance period
To provide the remaining shareholders in G-Loot who have not yet tendered their shares time to accept the Offer, the acceptance period for the Offer will be extended up to and including 22 October 2024 at 15.00 (CEST). The Bidder reserves the right to shorten the acceptance period and set an earlier settlement date as well as to extend the acceptance period and postpone the settlement date.
Note that consideration is SEK 6.95 in cash per share also during the extended acceptance period.
Since the Offer is now unconditional, shareholders who have accepted the Offer, or will accept the Offer, have no right to withdraw their acceptances.
Compulsory redemption
The Bidder will commence compulsory redemption proceedings under the Swedish Companies Act (Sw. aktiebolagslagen (2005:551)) to acquire all remaining shares in G-Loot. Please note that compulsory redemption proceedings are usually completed within 12-18 months from the initiation of the compulsory redemption by a majority shareholder, but may last a shorter or longer period of time. After the arbitral award on compulsory redemption has become legally binding, the majority shareholder will instruct Euroclear to execute the compulsory redemption and pay the redemption amount. This may, as stated above, take approximately 12-18 months from the majority shareholder's request for compulsory redemption. If the majority shareholder requests, and obtains, a so-called advance possession to the shares, payment of the amount conceded by the majority shareholder may take place earlier.
Recommendation by the Board of Directors of G-Loot
As previously communicated, the Board of Directors of G-Loot recommend the shareholders of G-Loot to accept the Offer.
