The proposed Scheme Consideration represents a 46.76% premium to the last traded share price of the Company on October 5, 2018, being the last business day prior to the date the proposal was received from CRE Investments and a 36.00% premium on the trading price as at close of the last business day; November 19, 2018

Are there other options? 

Shareholders unwilling to sell their shares also have the option of receiving 1 CRE African lnvestments Ltd shares for even; 176 CRE Nigeria share held as at the Effective Date.

When is the court ordered meeting?  

The Meeting during which minority shareholders will be given the option of accepting or declining the offer will be held on the 20th day of December 2018 at the Victoria Crown Plaza Hotel, 292B Ajose Adeogun Street, Victoria Island, Lagos at 10:00 am, at which place and time all the aforesaid shareholders are requested to attend.

The register of members will be closed from November 28, 2018, to November 29, 2018 (both dates inclusive) for the purpose of determining; the distribution of the Scheme Document.
