Share Consolidation

 

Pursuant to the Share Consolidation, 804,028 new S Shares have been issued today to the holders of S Shares on the Company's register on 25 March 2013 (this being the record date for the Share Consolidation). Application has been made to the UK Listing Authority for such shares to be admitted to the premium segment of the Official List, which is expected to take place on 27 March 2013.

 

Pursuant to Resolution 1 which was passed at the general meeting, immediately following the admission of such new S Shares to the Official List, all the S Shares then in issue in the capital of the Company will be redesignated as Ordinary Shares on a ratio of one to one. As a result, following completion of the Share Consolidation, holders of S Shares will hold 1.1528 Ordinary Shares for every S Share held on the record date for the Share Consolidation.

 

Applications will be made to the UK Listing Authority and London Stock Exchange in connection with the listing and admission of the new Ordinary Shares resulting from the Share Consolidation (and cancellation of the S Shares listing) which is expected to take effect on 28 March 2013. CREST accounts of shareholders who hold their Shares in CREST are expected to be updated and re-credited by 28 March 2013, with replacement share certificates dispatched to those who hold their share in certificated form expected to take place on 10 April 2013.

 

Following completion of the Share Consolidation, 15,225,880 Shares will be in issue. Therefore, the total number of voting rights in the Company will be 15,225,880, which may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or change to their interest in, the Company under the FSA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
