After the completion of the acquisition process, the ownership percentage of the existing shareholders will decrease from 85.999% to 82.394%, which will affect their voting rights.

The acquisition transaction involves the presence of related parties from board members, as Chairman Mohammed bin Saleh Al-Suhaibani has an interest in the acquisition deal, given that he is the company's chairman and the property is wholly owned by him, as well as the company’s CEO and board member Haitham bin Mohammed Al-Suhaibani, who is the seller's son. All related parties will abstain from voting on the decision to acquire the real estate asset.

Both parties have the right to terminate the agreement before its expiration in the case of violation by either party of its obligations without correcting the violation within 30 days from the date on which it was notified by the other party that the violation must be corrected; the information and documents mentioned in the agreement are incorrect and lawsuit or an ongoing investigation by any government agency, or change in existing legislation, or any measure that prevents the implementation of the agreement or makes it illegal.

Required approvals include the following obtaining the approvals of the Capital Market Authority (CMA) regarding the acquisition transaction and circulating to shareholders; the Saudi Exchange (Tadawul) for the listing of the new shares resulting from the capital increase, the company's extraordinary general assembly, in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Law and the rules for offering securities and continuing commitments, in connection with the acquisition deal from the Ministry of Commerce and any other necessary approvals related to the acquisition transaction.
