PDMR Dealing

12 May 2023: Solgenics Limited (the "Company") announces it has been notified that on 10 May 2023, Scott Fletcher, Non-Executive Director, purchased an aggregate of 3,500,000 ordinary shares of no par value in the Company ("Shares").

Articles of Association

Under Article 32 of the Company's Articles of Association, where a person or persons acting in concert acquire 30% or more of the Company's issued share capital, the Board may, but is not obliged to require such persons to extend the offer to all shareholders.

Further to the announcement on 16 January 2023 in connection with the loan conversion, whilst the Directors do not believe Hanno Pengilly, Seritza Limited, Mike Haworth and Scott Fletcher to be acting in concert, for the purposes of Article 32, Aman Sachdeva, as the independent director has agreed that it is in the best interest of the Company following the Company's announcement of its intention to delist, not to restrict any of them from acquiring further shares given that certain shareholders may wish to sell their shares ahead of the potential delisting. In light of the current circumstances, Aman Sachdeva, as the independent director, will not require them to extend an offer to all shareholders under Article 32 where any of Seritza Limited, Mike Haworth or Scott Fletcher (with their connected parties) individually own or control 30% or more of the issued share capital provided that in aggregate they do not own or control 50% or more of the issued share capital.

This limit will be reassessed in light of the then current circumstances in the event that any of Seritza Limited, Mike Haworth or Scott Fletcher (with their connected parties) in aggregate intend to make further acquisitions such that they would own or control 50% or more of the issued share capital.
