Further to its announcement dated 1 May 2012, the Company is pleased to announce the following information in relation to the conversion of its C Shares.
Conversion Ratio for C Shares
The Net Asset Values attributable to the Ordinary Shares and the C Shares as at the Calculation Time, being 30 April 2012, were 101.51 pence per share and 98.58 pence per share respectively. The Conversion Ratio for conversion of the C Shares, as calculated in accordance with the Company's prospectus dated 11 November 2011 (the "Prospectus"), is 0.9711 Ordinary Shares for every one C Share held.
On the basis of the Conversion Ratio, a holder of 10,000 C Shares will receive 9,711 New Shares upon Conversion.
Entitlements will be rounded down to the nearest whole share. Any fraction entitlements will be aggregated and sold in the market for the benefit of the Company.
The Ordinary Shares arising on Conversion will rank pari passu with, and will have the same rights as, the Ordinary Shares of the Company already in issue.
Further details of the Conversion and rights attaching to the C Shares are set out in the Prospectus. Terms defined in the Prospectus have the same meaning in this announcement unless otherwise defined.
Admission to the Official List and to trading on the London Stock Exchange
On the basis of the Conversion Ratio, the application has been made to the UK Listing Authority for 61,902,283 New Shares to be admitted to the Official List. Application has also been made for the New Shares to be admitted to trading on the London Stock Exchange. It is expected that such admissions will become effective and that dealings in the New Shares will commence on 8 May 2012.
The C Shares will be permanently removed from trading on the London Stock Exchange with effect from the opening of trading at 8.00 a.m. on 8 May 2012.
