MOFCOM approval represents the last major closing condition to the proposed merger. Consequently, the parties intend to close their transaction on 1 April 2016.
The closing of the proposed merger remains subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the remaining closing conditions contained in the merger agreement. Until that time, the companies will continue to operate as separate and independent entities and continue to serve their respective customers.
