ASX/Media Release
STOCKLAND COMMENCES COMPULSORY ACQUISITION OF REMAINING AEVUM SHARES
Stockland has commenced the process to compulsorily acquire all remaining Aevum shares, having reached a 92.45% stake in Aevum as at close of trade on 12 November 2010.
Stockland has also extended its Offer until 26 November 2010 to provide an opportunity for remaining shareholders to accept and receive payment within three business days.
Shareholders who wait for their shares to be compulsorily acquired may have to wait over six weeks to receive payment due to the legal process involved.
Stockland CEO, Retirement Living David Pitman said: “We’re pleased to be able to offer remaining Aevum shareholders the option to accept the Offer under our three day payment terms or wait for the compulsory acquisition process.
“A merger integration team with representatives of both Stockland and Aevum is already well progressed in the planning to bring our two businesses together.
“Stockland and Aevum are a good cultural fit with a focus on resident wellbeing and quality developments and we look forward to creating one market leading retirement business.”
Stockland’s Offer is scheduled to close at 7.00pm (Sydney time) on Friday 26 November 2010.
