Qannas Investments Limited
("Qannas" or the "Company")
Update on Transaction
Qannas announced on 3 September 2019 (the "First Announcement")
that it had conditionally agreed to acquire a substantial portfolio
of investment assets (the "Portfolio") from a consortium of third
party vendors (the "Transaction"). Qannas announced on 4 November
2019 (the "Second Announcement") that the escrow agreement in
relation to the Transaction would be amended to allow further funds
to be deposited into the escrow account with Shuaa Capital PSC
("Shuaa") to meet further debt service obligations of the vendors
of the Portfolio.
Similar to the amendments described in the Second Announcement,
the third party vendors have agreed with Eagle T2 Limited ("Eagle")
to deposit a further AED 5 million (approximately $1.4 million(1) )
into the escrow account with Shuaa to meet debt service obligations
arising in December. All other terms and effect of the escrow
arrangement are as described in the First Announcement, and
therefore it remains the case that the escrow arrangement is not
expected to have an impact on the net asset value of Qannas
following completion of the Transaction.
Shareholders are reminded that the Company announced on 29
November 2019 that it intends to seek the cancellation of trading
on AIM of its ordinary shares (the "Cancellation"). The Company
intends to complete the Transaction subsequent to the Cancellation
and work continues to facilitate this as soon as possible.
The entry into this amendment by Qannas is a related party
transaction pursuant to the AIM Rules as Eagle and Qannas'
investment manager, ADCM Ltd., are wholly owned subsidiaries of
ADFG. ADFG is also a substantial shareholder (as defined in the AIM
Rules) of Qannas. The independent directors of Qannas (being Chris
Ward and Richard Prosser), having consulted with Qannas' nominated
adviser, finnCap, consider its terms to be fair and reasonable
insofar as the independent shareholders of Qannas are
concerned.
Shareholders should refer to the First Announcement for more
information with regard to the Transaction and its terms. Defined
terms in this announcement are, unless otherwise specified,
consistent with the First Announcement.
