Acquisition Timing Update
The Company notes that the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (the "HSR Act") waiting period in connection with the Acquisition expired on March 7, 2025. The expiration of the waiting period under
the HSR Act satisfies an important condition necessary for the completion of the transaction.
Following approval by Shareholders and the expiration of the HSR Act waiting period, the Company expects to complete the Acquisition before the end of the first quarter 2025. A further announcement will be made once
the Acquisition has been completed.
Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in the text of this announcement have the meanings given in the Circular.
