Chinese Estates shares will be delisted from the stock exchange and its shareholders will be paid HK$4.00 in cash for each cancelled share, the company said.
Shares of Chinese Estates have been halted since Sept. 29, when they closed at HK$2.90. The company has been planning to offload its entire stake in the cash-strapped developer and had recently sold $32 million worth of Evergrande shares. ($1 = 7.7865 Hong Kong dollars)
