Offer Freed From Certain Conditions
Complii FinTech Solutions Ltd ( Complii ) (ASX:CF1) is pleased to announce that, in relation to its recommended off-market takeover offer ( Offer ) for all the ordinary shares in Registry Direct Limited (ASX:RD1) ( Registry Direct ), it has freed the Offer from all conditions other than the 90% minimum acceptance condition as set out at section 11.8(a) of its bidder’s statement dated 20 June 2022 as supplemented on 3 August 2022 ( Minimum Acceptance Condition ). A formal notice under sections 630(4) and 650F of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) is attached to this announcement.
As announced on 3 August 2022, Complii’s Offer is best and final and will not be increased except in limited circumstances such as where a Competing Proposal[1] emerges. Complii does not intend to declare the Offer free from the Minimum Acceptance Condition, although it may do so where, with the prior written consent of Registry Direct, such waiver or variation would be to allow the Minimum Acceptance Condition to be satisfied or waived at a level of acceptances representing less than 80% of all Registry Direct Shares. Complii reserves its right to waive the Minimum Acceptance Condition where acceptances for more than 80% of the Registry Direct Shares have been received,
The Offer will close at 5:00pm (AEST) on 19 August 2022 (unless further extended in the limited circumstances set out in Complii’s ASX announcement of 3 August 2022).
