MT Newswires Live07-14

Rakus (TYO:3923) has resolved to acquire 6.9 million common shares of Plus Alpha Consulting (PAC) from Oasis-managed funds for 23.1 billion yen, increasing its total voting rights in PAC from 5.91% to 22.21%.

The transaction, scheduled for completion on Aug. 21, is subject to regulatory approvals and will make PAC an equity-method affiliate of Rakus, according to a Tokyo bourse filing on Tuesday.

The two companies have also signed a memorandum of understanding to deepen their existing capital and business alliance.

Under the MOU, Rakus may nominate up to one non-executive director to PAC, faces restrictions on additional share purchases, and must offer PAC a right of first refusal if it transfers its PAC shares in the future.
