Montreal-based Amaya already controls just over 7% of CryptoLogic and stated that its offer worth us$ 34.5 million in cash ‘received valid acceptances’ from an additional 73.76 % of shareholders for a total of over 80 %.
“In accordance with the level of acceptances set forth above, Amaya is pleased to announce that the offer has become unconditional as to acceptances,” read a statement from Amaya. “In addition, Amaya is pleased to announce that, all conditions to the offer having been satisfied or waived, the offer is unconditional in all respects and that Amaya has taken up and will pay for the 10,199,689 CryptoLogic shares validly tendered in accordance with the offer within three business days of the date hereof.”
