- Result of EGM
Rank announces that the resolutions to approve the proposed disposal of the Hard
Rock businesses and the associated Special Dividend and Share Consolidation were
duly passed by the Company's shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting
('EGM') held earlier today.
A copy of the resolutions passed at the EGM has been submitted to the UK Listing
Authority and will be available for inspection at the UK Listing Authority's
Document Viewing Facility, which is situated at the Financial Services
Authority, 25 The North Colonnade, Canary Wharf, London E14 5HS, during normal
business hours on any weekday (public holidays excepted).
Both resolutions were carried on a show of hands. The proxy figures for the
resolutions will be displayed on the Company's corporate website (www.rank.com).
- Timetable update
Rank also announces that the timetable of principal events, as set out on page 2
of the Circular to shareholders dated 15 December 2006, has been revised.
Trading in the consolidated New Rank Shares will commence on Monday, 26 March
2007 ex-Special Dividend meaning the Existing Rank Shares will no longer be
marked ex-Special Dividend on Wednesday, 21 March 2007 as previously indicated.
Save for this revision, all of the other timetable dates remain unchanged and it
is intended that the payment of the Special Dividend will be no later than
Monday, 9 April 2007.
