Shareholders are now further advised that discussions between Stellar Capital and the potential investor have terminated. The Company is therefore continuing to assess alternative means of realising value for shareholders. Notification of reportable irregularity: In compliance with paragraph 3.25(e) of the JSE Listings Requirements, shareholders are further advised that the Company’s auditors, Grant Thornton (Jhb) Inc., have identified a reportable irregularity (“the Reportable Irregularity”) relating to non-compliance by the Company of section 30 of the Companies Act, No 71 of 2008 (“the Act”). Section 30 of the Act states that each company must prepare annual financial statements within six months after the end of its financial year, or such shorter period as may be appropriate to provide the required notice of an annual general meeting in terms of section 61(7). MRI’s annual financial statements for the year ended 28 February 2017 have not yet been prepared resulting in the Reportable Irregularity. Renewal of cautionary announcement: Shareholders are referred to the previous cautionary announcements, the last of which was dated 20 October 2016, and are advised to continue to exercise caution should they enter into any off- market trades in relation to their MRI shares until a further announcement is made.
