The JSE had declined Growthpoint Properties’ request for a ruling that Redefine be precluded from voting on all resolutions relating to Growthpoint’s bid for Fountainhead’s R10bn portfolio‚ Redefine said on Monday.

Growthpoint released an announcement on 17 April 2013 leveling a number of allegations against Redefine and Fountainhead Property Trust Management Limited (“Fountainhead Manco”).

The battle between listed property heavyweights Growthpoint Properties and Redefine Properties for a R10bn blue-chip retail portfolio flared up anew on Wednesday, with Growthpoint digging in its heels and indicating that it has no intention of giving up on its bid.

Growthpoint says it is pushing ahead with its revised proposal to acquire Fountainhead’s portfolio despite the latter’s declaration last month that it had terminated talks in this regard.

Redefine Properties welcomes the decision by Fountainhead’s independent committee to terminate its engagement with Growthpoint following Growthpoint’s proposal to acquire Fountainhead’s assets.
