Details of transactions and events giving rise to relevant event
Details of the transactions or other events requiring disclosure under the
instructions to this form:
On 7 May 2012 MET disclosed a relevant interest arising from control over
shares held by Retirement Villages New Zealand Limited (RVNZ) arising out of
an Undertaking provided by RVNZ in the context of the merger of Metlifecare
Limited (MET) with Vision Senior Living Limited and Private Lifecare Holdings
Limited.
MET has agreed to some variations to the proposed merger terms and RVNZ has
provided a replacement undertaking. As a consequence, the number of shares
in respect of which MET has a relevant interest has changed. At the date of
this notice the relevant interest relates to the entire RVNZ holding,
although the relevant interest will reduce after completion of the merger
allotments, the RVNZ sell-down and an intended issue of at least $10m new
share capital by MET to third party investors to repay MET debt.
In summary, RVNZ has agreed that it, any and all of its nominees or related
companies (of RVNZ) (together RVG Group) will not, sell, transfer or
otherwise dispose of any shares in MET (including MET shares to be issued to
RVNZ under the merger) at any time from 20 May 2012 until the date that is 16
months after settlement of the merger (scheduled for 2 July 2012), except to
the extent of a sell-down (intended to be effected through a documented
offering to retail investors) of 16.5m to 22.5m shares in MET and provided
that the restriction will not apply in certain circumstances specified in the
undertaking.
A copy of the replacement undertaking provided by RVNZ (3 pages) is attached.
