Following the passing of the Resolutions, and in particular the
Reduction Resolution (Resolution 6), the Board will make an
application shortly, to the Court to obtain its approval to the
Cancellation of the Company's Share Premium Account (as defined in
the circular posted to shareholders on 9 August 2023).
Revised provisional dates have been obtained for the required
Court hearings of the Company's application, but they are subject
to change and dependent on the Court's timetable. If the hearings
go ahead on the revised provisional dates, the present timetable
provides that the final hearing, at which it is hoped that the
Court will make an order confirming the Cancellation, will take
place on 12 September 2023.
Prior to confirming the Cancellation, the Court will need to be
satisfied that the creditors of the Company will not be adversely
affected. The Company is satisfied, having taken advice, that it
will be able to satisfy the Court in that regard.
The Cancellation does not take effect until the Court's order is
filed with and registered by Companies House. The Board intends to
file the required documentation with Companies House as soon as
possible following the final Court hearing and, subject to
compliance with all procedural requirements, Companies House will
usually register the documents within 10 Business Days. On the
present timetable, which is subject to change and dependent on the
Court's timetable, this would mean that the Cancellation would take
effect on or before 22 September 2023.
Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for the
admission of the EIS/VCT Placing Shares to trading on AIM.
Admission of the EIS/VCT Placing Shares is expected to occur at
8.00 a.m. on 6 October 2023.
Unless otherwise defined, capitalised terms within this
announcement shall have the same meaning as those contained within
the announcement dated 9 August 2023 under RNS number 7242I.
Further announcements will be made in due course, as
appropriate.
