MPAX ENVIRONMENTAL MARKETS PLC (the "Company")
Conversion of C Shares
14 December 2007
Further to the Company's most recent issue of C Shares (the "Issue"),
over 90 per cent. of the assets attributable to C Shareholders have
now been invested or committed to be invested. In accordance with the
terms and conditions of the Issue, the C Shares will convert into
Ordinary Shares at opening of business on the Conversion Date, which
has been determined by the Board of Directors to be 17 December 2007.
The Conversion Ratio, which has been calculated by reference to the
total net assets of the Company and the net assets of the Company
attributable to C Shareholders as at close of business on 7 December
2007, is 0.79846633. Accordingly, a C Shareholder holding 1,000 C
Shares will hold 798 Ordinary Shares following Conversion. Fractions
of Ordinary Shares arising on Conversion will be aggregated and sold
for the benefit of the Company. Following Conversion, the Company
will have 301,246,052 Ordinary Shares in issue.
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.
Application has been made to the UK Listing Authority for the
83,838,964 Ordinary Shares arising on Conversion to be admitted to
the Official List, and to the London Stock Exchange for the same
number of Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading. The C Shares
will be permanently removed from trading on the London Stock Exchange
with effect from open of trading at 8.00 a.m. on 17 December 2007.
Capitalised terms in this announcement shall, unless otherwise
stated, have the same meaning as set out in the section headed
'Definitions' in the prospectus published by the Company on 15 August
2007 (the "Prospectus").
