Of these, more than 94% of total votes and more than 84% of minority shareholder votes were cast in favour of proceeding to close the transaction. This result is clear in the direction it provides to the Special Committee and the Board and we will now work to fulfill this mandate expeditiously on behalf of all of our shareholders.”
