Notice of General Meeting, proposed reorganisation of Share
Capital
General Meeting
The Company announces that a notice convening a General Meeting
(the "Notice") has been sent to Shareholders in respect of a
proposed reorganisation of the Company's share capital. The General
Meeting is to be held on 5 September 2014 at 10am at the offices of
Edwin Coe LLP, 2 Stone Buildings, Lincoln's Inn, London WC2A 3TH. A
copy of the Notice will be available on the Company's website
shortly.
The price at which the Company's ordinary shares are traded on
AIM has recently fallen below the nominal value of such ordinary
shares. This restricts the ability of the Company to issue ordinary
shares to secure further financing for the Company. Accordingly the
Board feels it would be prudent to carry out a process of
reorganisation of share capital.
Proposed reorganisation
In the near future, the Company may wish to raise additional
funds in order to drive its expansion and to continue its on-going
business. The ordinary shares of the Company ("Ordinary Shares")
have recently been trading on AIM at a price below their nominal
value of 0.5 pence per share. The issue of new shares by a UK
company at a price below their nominal value is prohibited by UK
company law and accordingly the ability of the Company to raise
funds by way of the issue of further equity has been inhibited.
In order to rectify the position, the Directors are seeking
Shareholders' authority to implement a reorganisation to create a
differential between the nominal value of the Ordinary Shares and
their market price to facilitate future share issues. It is
therefore proposed that the Company reorganise its share capital
such that its existing Ordinary Shares have a lower nominal value
(the "Reorganisation"). The Reorganisation would be achieved by a
subdivision of each existing Ordinary Share into one ordinary share
of 0.05 pence each ("New Ordinary Share") and one subordinated
share of 0.45 pence each ("Subordinated Share").
The result of the Reorganisation is that each ordinary
Shareholder would continue to hold the same number of Ordinary
Shares in the Company which would continue to be traded on AIM, but
in addition would hold the same number of Subordinate Shares.
To give effect to the Reorganisation the current articles of
association (the "Articles") of the Company will need to be amended
to make changes to allow the creation of the subordinated shares.
These amendments will also require Shareholders' approval at the
General Meeting.
Rights of Ordinary Shares
The New Ordinary Shares will continue to carry the same rights
as attached to the existing Ordinary Shares.
Subordinated Shares
The Subordinated Shares created under the Reorganisation would
carry no rights as to voting or dividends and would be of no
economic value. The holders of subordinated shares will be entitled
to a payment on a return of capital or winding-up of the Company,
after each of the holders of Ordinary Shares have received a
payment of GBP1,000,000 on each share.
The subordinated shares will not be listed or traded on AIM and
will not be transferrable, nor will CREST accounts of shareholders
be credited in respect of any entitlement to subordinated shares.
No share certificates will be issued in respect to a holding of
Subordinated Shares.
The Subordinated Shares may be sold for the aggregate
consideration of GBP1 at any time upon the decision of the
Directors of the Company for the time being and any such Director
shall have the power and authority to sign a stock transfer form on
behalf of the holders of Subordinated Shares.
Changes to the Articles of Association
In connection with the Reorganisation the Company also proposes
to amend its Articles to include the rights and restrictions
attaching to the subordinated shares, as set out above.
Share certificates and Crest
If the Reorganisation is approved at the General Meeting, new
share certificates representing New Ordinary Shares will be sent to
Shareholders within 10 business days following the General Meeting.
Crest account balances will remain the same as at the close of
business on the date of the General Meeting.
On receipt of the new share certificates all ordinary share
certificates previously issued can be destroyed.
