Outcome of Adjourned Subscription Shareholders' Meeting

The Company is pleased to announce that the adjourned Subscription Shareholders' Meeting which was scheduled to take place on 7 June 2018 was reconvened earlier today and the Subscription Shareholders passed the resolution by the requisite majority (the "Resolution").  The full text of the resolution is contained in the notice of General Meeting in Part 4 of the Company's circular to Shareholders dated 15 May 2018 (the "Circular"). 

In accordance with paragraph 9.6.2 of the Listing Rules, a copy of the Resolution has been submitted to the UK Listing Authority and will shortly be available for inspection at the National Storage Mechanism at: www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/NSM.

As the Resolution has been passed, each outstanding Subscription Share has now been converted into and redesignated as a Deferred Share and, in accordance with the rights of the Deferred Shares, the Company has repurchased compulsorily all of the Deferred Shares for cancellation for an aggregate consideration equal to their nominal value of 1p per share.  The listing of the Subscription Shares in the standard segment of the Official List of the UK Listing Authority and admission of the Subscription Shares to trading on the London Stock Exchange's Main Market is expected to be cancelled at 8.00 a.m. on Wednesday, 20 June 2018.
