Shareholders should note that the proposed cancellation of the Company's share premium account is conditional upon confirmation by the Court of Session, Edinburgh and, if such confirmation is granted, the filing of the Court order with the Registrar of Companies. The Company now intends to petition the Court to commence the Court process to seek its confirmation of the share premium account cancellation. Subject to the Court's availability and the Court process, it is hoped that the Court hearing to confirm the share premium account cancellation will be during the last week of January or first weeks of February 2023. Any changes to this timetable will be notified to shareholders by an announcement on an RIS.
