Amalgamation of stock lines and TVR

WANdisco, (LSE: WAND), the world leader in Active Data Replication™, is pleased to announce that the distribution  restriction period applicable to 1,939,659 of its existing ordinary shares of 10 pence each (the "Category 3 Shares" or "WAN2 Shares") which were offered and sold to non-US Persons in "offshore transactions" issued on 6 July 2016 in compliance with and subject to certain restrictions pursuant to the requirements of Regulation S, Category 3 promulgated by the Securities Act of 1933 of the United States,  expired on 6 July 2017.  These WAN2 shares have the following identifying codes: ISIN JE00BYPG6G89, TIDM WAN2 and SEDOL BYPG6G8.

Following the expiry of the distribution restriction period the restrictions will no longer apply to the Category 3 Shares. Trading in the Category 3 Shares shall cease as of 8 a.m. BST on 7 July 2017 and all ordinary shares formerly traded as Category 3 Shares and identified in the CREST system with the marker "-REG S" under  ISIN JE00BYPG6G89, TIDM WAN2 and SEDOL BYPG6G8, shall continue to trade under ISIN  JE00B6Y3DV84 as Ordinary Shares of the Company. As a consequence, the Depositary Interest facility, operated by Capita IRG Trustees Limited, in relation to the restricted ISIN JE00BYPG6G89 will terminate with effect from close of business on 6 July 2017.   

 The Directors believe that it is in the interest of the Company and its shareholders to simplify the shareholding structure and have a single line of shares. The Company has applied to the London Stock Exchange for this to take place on 7 July 2017. From this date onwards all WANdisco shares will trade under the following identifying codes: ISIN JE00B6Y3DV84, TIDM WAND and  SEDOL B6Y3DV8.

The Company's issued share capital at 7 July 2017 will consist of  37,661,162 ordinary shares of 10 pence each with voting rights admitted to trading. The Company holds no ordinary shares in Treasury.

Therefore, the total number of voting rights in the Company is  37,661,162. This figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the DTRs.
