Tradanet (Pvt) Limited ("Tradanet") Arbitration
In its results announcement of 29 February 2016, the Company referred to the arbitration process in terms of which the Company's subsidiary, Payserv Africa Limited ("Payserv") was defending a claim brought by the minority shareholder in Tradanet, relating to its right to acquire Payserv's 51% share in Tradanet, allegedly triggered by the change in control of Cambria as a result of Ventures Africa Limited's subscription in April 2015 ("the VAL Subscription").
The Company announces that the arbitration process has been concluded with the arbitrator granting an award in favour of Payserv Africa and confirming that the VAL Subscription did not trigger any right held by the minority shareholder to acquire Payserv's 51% interest in Tradanet.
