The following replaces "Block listing - allotment of new shares" announcement dated Friday 6th July 2018 at 15:06 under RNS Number 9125T. Text relating to confirmation of the General Meeting to be held on 23rd July 2018 has now been included. All other details remain unchanged and the full amended text is shown below.
Block listing - allotment of new shares
In accordance with the block listing application announced on 22 June 2018, the Company has today issued 60,000 new ordinary shares of 25p each from the Company's general block listing facility at a price of 1418.57p per share. This represents a premium of 1.0% to the current net asset value. These shares are issued under the waiver of pre-emption rights authorised by shareholders at the AGM on 25th April 2018 and rank pari passu with existing shares in issue.
Following this issue, the Company has the ability to issue 3,094,000 ordinary shares under its block listing facility. However, the Company only has the authority to issue 198,288 ordinary shares within the current Shareholder authority which was given at the AGM on 25th April 2018. The Company has called a General Meeting to take place on 23rd July, at which it will seek authority from Shareholders to issue further shares. As a result of this allotment, the total number of ordinary shares in issue now stands at 31,308,880. The company no longer holds any shares in treasury.
The above figure (31,308,880) may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
