BROOKFIELD ASSET MANAGEMENT ("BROOKFIELD")
On 3 June 2024, Brookfield announced that it was in the early stages of assessing a possible cash offer for the whole of the issued and to be issued share capital of Tritax EuroBox.
On 4 September 2024, the boards of SEGRO and Tritax EuroBox announced that they had reached agreement on the terms of a recommended all-share offer pursuant to which SEGRO would acquire the whole of the issued and to be issued share capital of Tritax EuroBox (the "SEGRO Offer"), to be implemented by means of a scheme of arrangement.
On 26 September 2024, Tritax EuroBox published a scheme circular in relation to the SEGRO Offer. That circular included notice of the shareholder meetings to approve the SEGRO Offer (the "Shareholder Meetings"), which have been convened for 24 October 2024.
Pursuant to Section 4 of Appendix 7 of the Takeover Code, the Panel Executive has ruled that, unless the Executive consents otherwise, Brookfield must by 5.00pm on 17 October 2024, being the seventh day prior to the date of the Shareholder Meetings, either announce a firm intention to make an offer for Tritax EuroBox in accordance with Rule 2.7 of the Code or announce that it does not intend to make an offer for Tritax EuroBox. This deadline will cease to apply if, before that time, a party other than Brookfield announces a firm intention to make an offer for Tritax EuroBox in accordance with Rule 2.7.
Each of Tritax EuroBox, SEGRO and Brookfield has accepted this ruling.
