Closure of American Depositary Receipt Programme

21st Dec 2018 07:00

RNS Number : 1703L

Closure of American Depositary Receipt Programme of Consort Medical plc (the "Issuer")

 

Consort Medical plc announces the decision to close its American Depositary Receipt ("ADR") Programme effective at 5:00 PM (Eastern Time ) on 23 January 2019. The Level I ADR programme is a legacy programme from 1992 and represents a very small proportion of Consort's equity: as at close of business on 20 December 2018, only 0.02% of Consort's issued equity is held in ADR form and trading volumes are very low. Accordingly, due to the small size of the ADR Programme and an increase in the costs associated with it the Board of Directors of Consort have decided to close the Programme.

 

All holders of the Issuer's ADRs (the "ADR Holders") may surrender their ADRs to the corporate trust office of Bank of New York Mellon (the "Depositary") at BNY Mellon, Depositary Receipts, 240 Greenwich Street, 22 West, New York, NY 10286. Pursuant to the Depositary Agreement between the Issuer and the Depositary, subsequent to 27 January 2020, the Depositary may  attempt to sell the remaining ordinary shares of the Issuer held on deposit. ADR Holders who have not prior to such date surrendered their ADRs for cancellation will receive the net cash proceeds (after deduction of applicable Depositary fees and charges) from the sale of the shares held on deposit, upon surrender of their ADRs to the Depositary.
