RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION

The participation of John Teeling and David Cockbill in the Placing is a related party transaction for the purposes of AIM Rule 13 of the AIM Rules for Companies. The Director independent of the Placing (being James Finn) considers, having consulted with SP Angel Corporate Finance LLP, the Company's Nominated Adviser, that the participation in the Placing by Mr Teeling and Mr Cockbill is fair and reasonable in so far as Arkle's shareholders are concerned.

 

ADMISSION AND TOTAL VOTING RIGHTS

An application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for the Placing Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission"). It is expected that Admission will become effective and that dealings in the Placing Shares on AIM will commence on or around 9 May 2024.

 

In accordance with the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules, the Company confirms that on completion of the Placing and following Admission, the Company's enlarged issued ordinary share capital will comprise 564,810,997 Ordinary Shares.

 

The Company does not hold any Ordinary Shares in Treasury.  Therefore, following Admission, the above figure may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations to determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in the Company, under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
