Last sentence was cut off.... The entry of the settlement agreement between Katanga and G?camines constitutes a smaller related party transaction as defined in Listing Rule 11.1.10 because G?camines holds more than 10% of the voting rights in a material subsidiary of Glencore. Accordingly, as a condition precedent to the Settlement Agreement becoming effective, Glencore must obtain written confirmation from a sponsor that the terms of the Settlement Agreement with G?camines are fair and reasonable as far as the shareholders of Glencore are concerned. Glencore aims to obtain such written confirmation on or before 14 June, 2018.

Not sure this is a good deal for Glencore as the refinery will need big upgrades to modernise it. At present diesel sold in South Africa is either 50ppm for modern cars or 250ppm for trucks/older vehicles. In the UK I think it's 10ppm - so newer car engines aren't imported in to SA due to the poor fuel quality.
