Gresham House plc
("Gresham House" or the "Company")
Issue of Shares to Employee Benefit Trust and PDMR Dealings
Issue of shares to employee benefit trust
As announced earlier today, the scheme of arrangement set out
within the circular published on 4 August 2023 to implement the
acquisition of Gresham House by Seed Bidco Limited pursuant to Part
26 of the Companies Act 2006 ("Scheme") received the sanction of
the Court this morning. Capitalised terms used but not otherwise
defined in this announcement shall have the meaning given to them
in the Scheme Document.
As announced on 8 December 2023, the Company has applied to AIM
for a block listing of 4,157,529 new ordinary shares of GBP0.25
each in the Company.
In order to satisfy the exercise of options granted pursuant to
certain Gresham House employee share plans which were exercised
immediately following the sanction of the Scheme by the Court, the
Company's Employee Benefit Trust ("EBT") has subscribed for
2,774,782 new ordinary shares in the Company ("New Ordinary
Shares") at their par value of GBP0.25 each, at an aggregate cost
to the EBT of GBP693,695.50. The Company gifted GBP693,695.50 to
the EBT to fund its subscription for the New Ordinary Shares.
Accordingly, the Company has today allotted the New Ordinary
Shares to the EBT and such shares rank pari passu in all respects
with the existing ordinary shares of GBP0.25 each in the Company.
It is anticipated that the New Ordinary Shares will be admitted to
trading on AIM today ("Admission").
Following Admission, the Company's issued share capital will
comprise 41,048,778 ordinary shares of GBP0.25 each, which figure
may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for
the calculations by which they will determine if they are required
to notify their interest in, or a change in their interest in, the
share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure and
Transparency Rules. The Company does not hold any shares in
treasury.
