The binding agreement, if signed, will include the conditions and procedures that would need to be fulfilled including obtaining the approval of the CMA, the approval of the company’s extraordinary general assembly and the approval of any third parties whose approval is required to implement the potential transaction and any other conditions and procedures.

The revised offer includes a condition that the binding agreement would need to be signed latest by Feb. 10, 2022, provided that the binding agreement is substantially similar to the draft agreement that has been initially agreed on between the company and the fund manager and which has been attached to the revised offer.

Any further developments in relation to the transaction will be announced in due course. In September, the developer submitted a non-binding offer to Alinma Makkah Real Estate Fund’s manager to settle all payment obligations and other liabilities owed by the developer to the fund.
