ANGLE plc (the "Company")
Publication of Circular
ANGLE plc (AIM: AGL), a world-leading liquid biopsy company, announces a Circular will shortly be published on the Company's website, https://angleplc.com/ (subject to certain access restrictions), and will be posted to Qualifying Shareholders (other than Overseas Shareholders) later today. This follows the Company's announcement on 5 June 2024 confirming the results of the Placing and Subscription. The Circular contains further information on the Company, the Fundraising and the terms and conditions of the Open Offer.
In order to provide Qualifying Shareholders (other than Overseas Shareholders) with an opportunity to participate in the Fundraising at the Issue Price, Qualifying Shareholders (other than Overseas Shareholders) will be invited, subject to the terms and conditions of the Open Offer, to apply for their Basic Entitlement of Open Offer Shares at the Issue Price. Each Qualifying Shareholder's Basic Entitlement has been calculated on the following basis:
1 Open Offer Share for every 19 Existing Ordinary Shares
held by them and registered in their names on the Record Date, rounded down to the nearest whole number of Open Offer Shares.
Qualifying Shareholders (other than Overseas Shareholders) are also invited to apply for additional Open Offer Shares (up to the total number of Open Offer Shares available to Qualifying Shareholders under the Open Offer) as an Excess Open Offer Entitlement. Any Open Offer Shares not issued to a Qualifying Shareholder pursuant to their Basic Entitlement will be apportioned between those Qualifying Shareholders who have applied for an Excess Open Offer Entitlement at the sole and absolute discretion of the Board, provided that no Qualifying Shareholder shall be required to subscribe for more Open Offer Shares than he or she has specified on the Application Form or through CREST.
The latest time and date for acceptance and payment in full under the Open Offer is 11.00 a.m. on 20 June 2024.
Unless otherwise stated, capitalised terms not otherwise defined in the text of this announcement have the same meanings ascribed to them as in the Launch Announcement published by the Company on 5 June 2024.
The Expected Timetable of Principal Events is set out in the Appendix 1 of this announcement.
