To London Stock Exchange 31st March 2008
Regulatory Announcement (via RNS)
Company: Blue Star Maritime S.A.
Official List Notice
Blue Star Maritime S.A.
Notice regarding the application for cancellation of secondary listing on the
International Order Book and cancellation of admission to trading on the London
Stock Exchange for listed securities.
1. Cancellation of secondary listing on the International Order Book.
Blue Star Maritime S.A. has applied to have the securities of its
common stock delisted form the Official List of the UK Listing
Authority and to have the admission to trading on the London Stock
Exchange International Order Book for listed securities cancelled.
2. Reasons for delisting
Blue Star Maritime S.A. has decided to request a delisting from the
Official List and the cancellation of the admission to trading of its
securities on the London Stock Exchange because (i) there is no
trading in the GDRs for more than one year and there is a limited
number of outstanding GDRs and (ii) Blue Star Maritime S.A. has
decided to terminate the GDR program. Blue Star Maritime S.A. believes
that delisting its securities from the Official List and canceling the
admission to trading on the London Stock Exchange market for listed
securities will not adversely affect its shareholders and investors,
because the shares will continue to be listed on the Athens Stock
Exchange.
3. Date of cancellation
It is anticipated that the cancellation of the listing and admission
to trading will take effect from 30th April 2008, being over 20
business days following the date of this announcement.
For any further information in relation to the requested cancellation please
