It is expected that Admission will become effective, and dealings in the New Shares will commence on AIM, at 8.00 a.m. on 15 December 2009. The New Shares will, when issued and fully paid, rank pari passu in all respects with the existing ordinary shares, including the right to receive any dividend or other distribution declared, made or paid after Admission. Completion of the Acquisition is anticipated to occur shortly after Admission. As at the date of this announcement, all Vendors had signed the Acquisition Agreement.
