\nMAC CEO, Mick McMullen, commented:<\/p>\n
\u201cThe receipt of regulatory approval from FIRB following the previously announced approval from SARB is another significant step towards implementation of the Transaction as all requisite regulatory approvals have now been obtained. We strongly encourage all shareholders to vote well ahead of the 26 August 2025 (for MAC CDI Holders) and 27 August 2025 cut-off (for MAC Shareholders and Scheme Shareholders). The MAC Directors remain unanimous in recommending that Scheme Shareholders vote in favour of the Scheme at the Court Meeting and that MAC Shareholders vote in favour of the General Meeting Resolution, in the absence of a Superior Proposal.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n
