The Company announces that, following the Court sanctioning the Scheme relating to the recommended cash offer by Petrichor today, an application has been made for admission to trading on AIM ("Admission") of 21,134,000 new ordinary shares of £0.01 each in the Company ("New Ordinary Shares"). Admission is expected to occur on 13 September. The New Ordinary Shares will be issued pursuant to the exercise of Options and Warrants in accordance with proposals made to the holders of those Options and Warrants pursuant to Rule 15 of the Code, as described in the scheme document published in relation to the Acquisition (the "Scheme Document"). It is expected that the New Ordinary Shares will be admitted to trading at 8am tomorrow, 13 September 2023.

 

Notifications by the PDMRs of the Company in accordance with the UK Market Abuse Regulation are set out in the Appendix to this announcement.

In accordance with Rule 2.9 of the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers, the Company announces that, following Admission, it will have 565,367,031 ordinary shares in issue.

 

Shareholders in the Company may use this figure as the denominator for the calculation, by which they would determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.

 

There are still 26,524,000 outstanding Warrants for the issue of ordinary shares. These are held by Petrichor and will not be exercised ahead of the Scheme Effective Date.

 

The intended Effective Date of the Scheme remains 14 September 2023. 

 

The International Securities Identification Number (ISIN) of Egdon's ordinary shares is GB00B28YML29.
