RESULTS OF GENERAL MEETING
1. INTRODUCTION
Shareholders of Tower are referred to the firm intention announcement published on SENS on
7 October 2021, and the circular dispatched to shareholders on 25 October 2021 (“Circular”), relating to:
- a scheme of arrangement in terms of section 114 of the Companies Act, No. 71 of 2008 to be
proposed by Tower to its shareholders, and to which RDC will be a party, in terms of which RDC (or
a nominated RDC group company) shall acquire all of the issued ordinary shares in Tower that RDC
does not already own, for a purchase consideration of R3.776 per Tower share, on a cum distribution
basis.
- a concurrent, but separate, standby general offer by RDC to Tower shareholders, to acquire their
Tower shares for the Cash Consideration, which general offer is conditional on, inter alia, (i) the
Scheme failing to become operative and (ii) a sufficient number of acceptances of the general offer
being received to result in RDC obtaining control of the majority of the Tower shares in issue; and
- the delisting of all Tower shares from the JSE pursuant to the Scheme becoming operative; or the
potential delisting of all Tower shares from the JSE pursuant to the general offer being implemented
and the delisting being approved by Tower shareholders
Tower shareholders are advised that at the general meeting held on Wednesday, 24 November 2021 to
consider and, if deemed fit, pass the Resolutions required to authorise and approve the Scheme and
Delisting (“General Meeting”), the Resolutions set out in the notice convening the scheme meeting (which
were attached to the Circular), were passed on a poll by the requisite majorities (being those set out in
the notice convening the scheme meeting in respect of each resolution).
Capitalised terms used in this announcement that are not otherwise defined, bear the meaning ascribed
to them in the Circular.
