RE: RE: VTR Next? This looks like a friendly takeover...???? agreed by both parties...???
Yamana Gold Inc. has entered into a definitive agreement with Extorre Gold Mines Ltd. whereby Yamana will acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Extorre.
Under the terms of the agreement, each Extorre shareholder will receive $4.26 per share comprising $3.50 in cash and 0.0467 of a Yamana common share for each Extorre common share held. The offer represents a 54-per-cent premium to Extorre's 20-day volume weighted average price (VWAP) and an 18-per-cent premium to the 60-day VWAP for the period ending June 15, 2012. The transaction value, net of cash and on a basic shares outstanding basis, is approximately $395-million, representing approximately 3 per cent of Yamana's pro forma market capitalization.
