ASX Announcement

iCollege Limited (ASX: ICT)

1 October 2021

iCollege reaches over 92.0% interest in RedHill Education; moves to acquire remaining shares

iCollege Limited ( iCollege ) ( ASX:ICT ) refers to its Off-Market Takeover Offer for RedHill Education Limited (RedHill ) ( ASX:RDH ).

iCollege is pleased to announce that it now holds a 92.44% relevant invest in RedHill shares. iCollege has now declared its Offer free from all the conditions set out in Section 6 of Schedule 1 of iCollege’s Replacement Bidder’s Statement dated 9 April 2021 (as further supplemented and varied). Accordingly, the Offer is now unconditional.

A formal notice under section 650F of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (Corporations Act) freeing the Offer of the defeating conditions and formal notice under 630(4) of the Corporations Act in relation to the status of the conditions are attached and were given to RedHill earlier today.

As its interest exceeds 90%, iCollege intends to compulsory acquire the remaining RedHill shares in accordance with section 661B of the Corporations Act and will update the market when that process has started.

iCollege’s Off-Market Takeover Offer will close 7.00pm (Melbourne time) on 11 October 2021 (unless the board of ICT exercises its discretion to extend the Offer)

iCollege’s board wishes to thank all parties involved for their support and confirms that it is now actively working with RedHill’s team on integration planning and growth initiatives for both its domestic and international training operations. The Company is exceptionally well-placed to capitalise on opportunities in both sectors and is uniquely positioned for when international student intake resumes with borders opening.

This announcement has been approved by the Board of iCollege Limited.
