Events arising since publishing the Prospectus
The publication of this Supplementary Prospectus is a regulatory requirement under the Prospectus Rules and Section 87G of FSMA following the occurrence of the events referred to below.
The Prospectus Rules and section 87G of FSMA require the issue of a supplementary prospectus if, in the relevant period (being, for these purposes, the later of the closure of the Placing and the time when trading in the Ordinary Shares on the London Stock Exchange begins), there exists or is noted a significant new factor, material mistake or inaccuracy relating to the information included in the Prospectus. This Supplementary Prospectus has been approved for publication by the FCA. Save as otherwise amended in this Supplementary Prospectus, the Placing is being made on the terms and subject to the conditions set out in full in the Prospectus.
Copies of this Supplementary Prospectus and the Prospectus may be viewed on the National Storage Mechanism (NSM) of the UKLA at http://www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/NSM, and this Supplementary Prospectus and the Prospectus are available free of charge from the offices of the Company's solicitor, Keystone Law of 48 Chancery Lane, London, WC2A 1JF and the following website: www.kavangoresources.com
1. MATERIAL MISTAKES AND INACCURACIES AND SIGNIFICANT NEW FACTOR
1.1 In the Prospectus, the Company set out details of its Significant Shareholders and details of the shareholdings of its Directors both before, and after, Admission.
1.2 Following approval of the Prospectus by the UKLA on 10 July 2018, the Company was notified that there had been an administrative error in relation to the Placing. More specifically, that one of the Placees had not returned its correctly signed Placing Letter in respect of 10m New Ordinary Shares. Having requested this correctly signed letter be returned (as confirmation of its irrevocable commitment to subscribe for New Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Placing), such Placee notified SI Capital that it no longer wished to participate in the Placing as it had subsequently overcommitted itself on this, and other, projects.
1.3 The approved Prospectus therefore contained material mistakes and inaccuracies. The Prospectus disclosed that irrevocable commitments to subscribe for 60,000,000 New Ordinary Shares for an aggregate price of £1.5m had been received, but this was not correct because of the missing correctly signed placing letter referred to in 1.2 above. Specifically, the following disclosures were materially inaccurate:
a) Summary – Terms and Conditions of the Placing- E3 (page 22)-: "Irrevocable commitments, conditional upon Admission, have been received for an aggregate of £1.5m".
b) Part IX –Share Capital and the Placing – paragraph 2 (page 59)– "Irrevocable commitments have been received in respect of 60m New Ordinary Shares".
1.4 The Directors and the Chief Financial Officer have agreed to subscribe for an additional 6,000,000 New Ordinary Shares under the terms of the Placing (which are to be subject to the Lock In Agreement) to fulfill the shortfall:
-
Douglas Wright
-
Michael Foster
-
Charles Michael Moles
-
John Forrest
1.5 Further, some of the existing placees increased their Placing participation and will be issued a further 4,000,000 New Ordinary Shares.
1.6 The agreement to subscribe for New Ordinary Shares as referred to in 1.4 and 1.5 above means that the total number of New Ordinary Shares being issued and the amount in respect thereof, remains as disclosed in the Prospectus that is: 60m New Ordinary Shares and £1.5m respectively. However, following this increased participation in the Placing, the details of the above named persons' shareholdings post Admission in the Prospectus have changed as set out below.
The Directors do not have any reason to believe that these shareholding updates will in any way affect either the purpose for which funds are being raised pursuant to the Placing or in respect of the Company's strategy. They do, however, regard the updated information to be a significant new factor which should be brought to investors' attention.
