IS-

I'm not sure on this deal yet, but on others, (JEF/ITGI, Williams/Midway) the parent has traded "with due bills", meaning still entitled to the dividend, for 5 or so trading days after record date, and a when issued "stub" trades at the same time. 2 weeks seems long for record/distribution dates to me. I'll check with clearing tomorrow to get the straight story.

What happens if I buy MALL after May 24th?

IS, you won't get UBID shares if you buy after the 24th. On the 25th, MALL will open lower by approximately 0.7*UBID of the 24th. Works just like a split.
