Results of Retail
Offer
UK Oil and Gas PLC
(AIM: UKOG) is pleased to announce that, further
to its announcement of 5th August 2024, it has
conditionally raised approximately £248,204 (before expenses) via
the conditional issue of 496,408,000
new ordinary shares of £0.000001 each in the
capital of the Company (the "Retail Offer Shares") at a price
of 0.05 pence per share pursuant to its
offer to its existing retail shareholders
via CMC CapX (the "Retail Offer").
For the avoidance of doubt, the
Retail Offer is separate from and does not form part of the Placing
announced on 5th August 2024.
The issue of the Retail Offer Shares
is conditional upon the passing of the resolutions to be put to
shareholders of the Company at a General Meeting, to be held via a
virtual platform on 21st August 2024. The
Retail Offer and the Placing are conditional on the Fundraising
Shares being admitted to trading on the AIM market operated by
London Stock Exchange plc ("Admission"). Admission is expected to
take place at 8.00 a.m. on or around 27th August
2024. Completion of the Retail Offer is conditional, inter alia, upon the completion of the
Placing.
Admission to trading
Application will be made to AIM for
Admission, which is expected to become effective and dealings
in the Retail Offer Shares to commence at, 8.00 a.m. on or around
27th August 2024.
Following Admission, the total
voting rights in the Company will therefore be 11,140,761,388 and
Shareholders will be able to use this figure as the denominator by
which they are required to notify their interest in, or change to
their interest in, the Company under the Disclosure Guidance and
Transparency Rules.
