Issued on behalf of Victoria PLC by Citigate Dewe Rogerson
Date: Monday 16 January 2012 Immediate Release
Victoria PLC
("Victoria" or the "Company")
Invalid Requisition
The Board of Victoria notes the announcement by Alexander Anton,
a former Chairman and Director of the Company made last Friday
afternoon (15.03hrs 13 January 2012).
The Board confirms that, following the Company's announcement
made on Friday 13 January 2012 relating to a formal sales process
it received a purported requisition from Alexander Anton and New
Fortress Finance Holdings Ltd requesting the Board to convene a
General Meeting to consider the imposition of Mr Anton and three
other Directors onto the Board whilst removing the current
Independent Non- Executive Directors.
However, the Board is advised that the requisition is invalid as
Alexander Anton holds less than 5 per cent of the Company's issued
share capital and New Fortress Finance Holdings Ltd is not a
registered shareholder. Therefore, neither party has the authority
to requisition a General Meeting.
The Board unanimously believes that the commencement of the
formal sales process announced will achieve the objective of
realising maximum value for shareholders, whilst safeguarding the
interests of all stakeholders.
Whilst the Board expects that Mr Anton's consortium will submit
a valid requisition, the Company has currently set a deadline of
the end of February 2012 for the announcement of any firm offer for
the Company or its operating businesses. Consequently, the Board
believes that it will be in a position to give all shareholders a
real choice by the time of a General Meeting. There can be no
certainty that any offer will be made for the Company or its
operating businesses, or even proposed, or as to the level of any
proposal or offer that may be made or that any such offer may be
made prior to a General Meeting.
Shareholders are advised by the Board to take no action at this
time. The Board will keep shareholders updated as appropriate.
