Applications have been made to the UK Listing Authority and the London Stock Exchange to update the listing records for the D Shares and to effect the cancellation of the listing of the old ordinary share and C shares classes. This is expected to become effective on 3 August 2017. Accordingly, the newly merged D share class is being renamed the Ordinary Share class. All shareholders will therefore hold Ordinary Shares.
The deferred shares created by the merger process will be bought back and cancelled by the Company in due course for the aggregate sum of 1 penny.
Shareholders will receive their share certificate for the Ordinary Shares arising on conversion of their Ordinary, C Shares and D shares by 15 August 2017.
