Intermediate Capital Group plc (the "Company")
22nd July 2015
Amendment to Official List, Share Consolidation and Total Voting Rights
Further to the approval by shareholders of the special dividend and associated share consolidation at the Company's Annual General Meeting on 15th July 2015, the Company's share consolidation will become effective at 8am on Thursday 23rd July 2015.
The share consolidation will replace every 7 existing ordinary shares of 20 pence each with 6 new Ordinary shares of 231/3 pence each. The Company's new ordinary shares will be amended on the Official List of the UK Listing Authority and will commence trading on the London Stock Exchange at 8.00 am UK time on Thursday 23rd July 2015.
Prior to the share consolidation becoming effective, the Company's issued share capital was 385,231,542 Ordinary shares of 20 pence each (ISIN: GB0004564430) including 4,900,000 shares held in treasury. For the purposes of the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules, the Company's issued share capital as at 8.00 am on Thursday 23rd July 2015 (the effective time of the share consolidation) will consist of 330,198,465 new Ordinary shares of 23 1/3 pence each (ISIN: GB00BYY5B507). As at the same date and time, the Company will hold 4,200,000 ordinary shares in treasury.
The decrease in the issued share capital and total voting rights results from the consolidation of shares.
The Company will at that time have 325,998,465 ordinary shares in issue if treasury shares are excluded. The figure of 325,998,465 total voting rights may therefore 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 Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
