KEY POINTS:
MFS Living and Leisure needs to win another 18.7 per cent of Tourism Holdings shareholders in the next two days for its takeover to succeed.
The Queensland company said yesterday it has received acceptances for 71.3 per cent of THL shares. It has repeatedly said its $2.80 a share offer, conditional on obtaining 90 per cent support, will not be extended beyond the Saturday deadline.
MFS chief executive Marshall Vann yesterday repeated MFS would not separately buy THL's assets if the takeover failed, and that the offer would not be extended.
THL shares were down 2c yesterday at $2.70.
