UPDATE ON THE FOLLOW-ON OFFER
1. Introduction
Holders of shares in Acucap (“Acucap Shareholders” and “Acucap Shares”) and holders of participatory
interest in Sycom (“Sycom Unitholders” and “Sycom Units”) are referred to the announcements dated
12 June 2014 and 20 June 2014 in terms of which Acucap announced that it had made a subsequent
offer (“the Follow-On Offer”) to acquire all remaining Sycom Units that it did not already own.
The terms of the Follow-On Offer are identical to the terms of the offer made by Acucap in March 2014
(“the Initial Offer”). Sycom Unitholders that accept the Follow-On Offer will therefore receive 58 Acucap
Shares for every 100 Sycom Units tendered into the Follow-On Offer (“Follow-On Offer Consideration”).
As further explained in the announcements of 12 June 2014 and 20 June 2014, payment of the Follow-
On Offer Consideration will occur on a weekly basis. Sycom Unitholders that accept the Follow-On Offer
on/before 12h00 on Friday, will therefore receive the Follow-On Offer Consideration on the immediately
following Monday. Where acceptances are received after 12h00 on Friday, they will be treated as having
been received the following Monday and accordingly will qualify for payment on the Monday thereafter.
The results of the Follow-On Offer to date are included in the table below:
Acucap’s holding in Sycom immediately following the Initial Offer 73.3%
Sycom Units acquired by Acucap to date, in terms of the Follow-On Offer 9.5%
Acucap’s holding in Sycom after taking into account the Follow-On Offer 82.8%
acceptances received on 25 July 2014
Following the issue of the Follow-On Offer Consideration due on Monday, 28 July 2014 (payable to
Sycom Unitholders that accepted the Follow-On Offer after 12h00 on Friday, 18 July 2014), Acucap’s
total shares in issue (and listed) will increase to 240 365 557 shares.
The Follow-On Offer remains open for acceptances until the earlier of 30 September 2014 and a date
to be announced by Acucap.
