Unless you need the proceeds immediately, I'd suggest waiting for your Broker to send the buy out form. You get the proceeds without having to pay dealing commission. Monday's price might be marginally below £ 17.28 if there's any residual uncertainty.
I don't think there's going to be any alternative share offer or CGT mitigation scheme, but you never know. There's possibly also a dividend entitlement somewhere in the mix.
