The proposed disposal is subject to regulatory approvals, board approval and/or shareholders' approval, as well as due diligence being conducted on the property.
The parties will continue to negotiate in a commercially reasonable manner with a view to finalising and executing definitive agreements within 30 days.

Also the title of this thread needs to be updated to account for consolidation. NTA is around $2.80. After distribution of $1.60, the ex-div share price should be around $0.35 cts (if share price stays at $1.95 now), out of which $0.20 is in net cash and liquid assets and another $1 in property assets. 
Payout of $1.60 approved at EGM yesterday. 
EGM on 18 Feb. payday is coming!!!!
