Listing Rule 7.4.2 provides that where a company in general meeting approves a prior issue of securities, that issue of securities shall be treated as having been made with approval for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.1.
Resolution 3 proposes the approval of a share issue by the company made on 12 September 2005. If this resolution is passed, then the company will have the capacity to issue securities under the 15% rule without shareholder approval.
