Clientèle Limited (JSE:CLI) entered into a share exchange agreement to acquire 1Life Insurance Ltd from Telesure Investment Holdings (Pty) Ltd. for R1.3 billion on November 3, 2023.The purchase consideration for the 1Life Acquisition is an amount of R1,914 billion, which is equivalent to the Embedded Value of 1Life, as at 30 June 2023, adjusted to be calculated on a similar basis to that used by Clientèle in its Embedded Value calculation, plus a control premium of 6.23%. The purchase consideration will be settled through the issue of 117,815,756 (one hundred and seventeen million, eight hundred and fifteen thousand, seven hundred and fifty six) ordinary shares in Clientèle ("Consideration Shares"), which will be equal to 26% of the sum of Clientèle's issued share capital plus the Consideration Shares as at the date of this announcement.
