The transaction involved a conditional share swap. Bercman will acquire all shares in Krakul, to be paid for with Bercman shares. According to Ellex, "the transaction shall be completed if Bercman’s extraordinary general meeting approves the conclusion of the transactions and permits an increase of share capital and the issuance of new shares to pay for the acquisition.
