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.
