MOD Resources Limited
("MOD" or the "Company")
Update on Cash Elections from MOD shareholders
On 25 June 2019, MOD Resources Ltd (ASX/LSE: MOD) ("the
Company") announced that Sandfire Resources NL (ASX:SFR)
("Sandfire") had made an offer to acquire 100% of MOD shares by way
of a Scheme of Arrangement ("Scheme"). Under the terms of the
Scheme, eligible shareholders were given the opportunity to elect
to receive cash consideration of A$0.45 per MOD Share ("Cash
Election").
The Company advises that a total of 159 shareholders, currently
holding a total of 101,176,973 fully paid ordinary shares in MOD
("MOD Shares"), have made a Cash Election. The total consideration
payable for these shares would be approximately $45.5 million which
exceeds the cash consideration cap of $41.6 million ("Maximum Cash
Consideration").
Accordingly, it is expected that shareholders who have made a
Cash Election will have their cash consideration scaled back on a
pro-rata basis so that the total amount of cash consideration
payable equals the Maximum Cash Consideration and the remainder of
the consideration will be payable to those shareholders in Sandfire
shares.
Based on the number of MOD Shares currently held by those
shareholders who have made a Cash Election, shareholders who have
made a Cash Election will receive:
- A$0.4111607 per MOD Share (Section A of the scale back
formula, outlined in section 5.3 of the Scheme Booklet); and
- 0.005731 Sandfire shares for every MOD Share held (Section B
of the scale back formula, outlined in section 5.3 of the Scheme
Booklet).
Fractional entitlements in relation to cash consideration to be
received by Shareholders who elected cash will be rounded up to the
nearest cent. Fractional entitlements to Sandfire shares will be
rounded up or down to the nearest whole number and in the case of
an entitlement to half a share rounded up to the nearest whole
number. Shareholders entitled to receive less than one Sandfire
share will have their entitlement rounded up to one share.
A cash election under the Scheme is deemed to apply to all MOD
Shares held by the shareholder making the Cash Election on the
record date for the Scheme ("Record Date"), regardless of whether
the number of MOD Shares held is greater or less than the number
held at the time the Cash Election was made. Accordingly, the share
and cash numbers above are indicative only and may change based on
movements on the share register of the Company between the date of
this announcement and the Record Date, which is currently scheduled
to be 16 October 2019.
Cash elections received are subject to final audit, analysis and
calculation after the Record Date. An analysis of eligible
shareholders, ineligible shareholders and unmarketable parcel
shareholders has not been undertaken and will only be undertaken
after the Record Date as the determination of whether a shareholder
is an eligible shareholder or ineligible shareholder is based on
the jurisdiction of a registered address of a shareholder at the
Record Date. Likewise, a Shareholder who is an unmarketable parcel
shareholder will only be known based on the holding of shares on
the Record Date and the last traded price of Sandfire shares on ASX
on the trading day prior to the Record Date.
The MOD Board continues to unanimously recommend that MOD
shareholders vote in favour of the Scheme (in the absence of a
superior proposal and subject to the independent expert continuing
to conclude that the Scheme is in the best interests of MOD
shareholders). Please refer to page (iii) of the Scheme Booklet for
important disclosure relating to the MOD Directors'
recommendation.
