The Takeovers Code prohibits a person from becoming the holder of more than 20% of the shares of Heartland, other than in accordance with the provisions of that code (which prescribes procedures for partial or full offers).
Under the Financial Markets Conduct Act, there are disclosure obligations for any person whose relevant interest in Heartland shares reaches a 5% threshold (with ongoing disclosure obligations for any subsequent movements of 1% or more in that substantial holding).
