Question: 1
Mahamba Logistics Ltd and Buffalo Haulage Ltd have concluded an
agreement in terms of which Mahamba Logistics Ltd will acquire and
hold all the assets and liabilities of Buffalo Haulage Ltd for R300
million (the ‘Transaction’). The material terms of the Transaction
include that Mahamba Logistics Ltd will pay the shareholders of Buffalo
Haulage Ltd a cash consideration of R10.00 for each Buffalo Haulage
Ltd share held and that, pursuant to the implementation of the
Transaction, Buffalo Haulage Ltd will be deregistered.
At a shareholders’ meeting to consider the Transaction, 84% of the
shareholders of Buffalo Haulage Ltd approved the Transaction proposed
by the board. However, certain shareholders who hold 16% of the
general voting rights in Buffalo Haulage Ltd, voted against the
Transaction as they are dissatisfied with the strategic rationale for the
Transaction and the cash consideration of R10.00 per share, which they
believe is unfair to them.
