Zegona Communications plc

("Zegona" or the "Company")

Notification of proposed AIM cancellation and admission to the Official List

Zegona is pleased to announce its intention to apply for admission of its entire issued share capital to the Official List (by way of standard listing under chapter 14 of the Listing Rules) of the United Kingdom Listing Authority (the "UKLA") (the "Official List"), and for admission to trading on the London Stock Exchange plc's ("LSE") main market for listed securities (the "Main Market") (together, "Admission").  Pursuant to Rule 41 of the AIM Rules for Companies, the Company hereby gives notice of the intended cancellation of trading of its ordinary shares on the AIM market of the LSE ("AIM").

The Directors of Zegona continue to appraise acquisition opportunities to grow the Company and create value for shareholders and have always expected that the Company would need to move to the Main Market in order to achieve their ambitions for Zegona.  The recent completion of the acquisition of Telecable provides the Company with an advanced platform for the move and the Board considers that admission to trading on the Main Market will increase its profile and attractiveness to a broader range of investors in advance of further acquisitions.

It is currently expected that the Company's ordinary shares will be admitted to the Official List, commence trading on the Main Market and simultaneously be cancelled on AIM effective at 8.00 a.m. on 25 September 2015 (the "Admission Date"), subject to the receipt of the necessary approvals from the UKLA and the LSE.  If there is any delay in the proposed Admission Date, the Company will make a further announcement.  The Company will issue a prospectus in connection with Admission prior to the Admission Date.

Following Admission, Zegona's shareholders will be able to trade the Company's ordinary shares on the Main Market.
