NOVENTA LIMITED
("Noventa" or the "Company") (AIM: NVTA; PLUS: NV)
CONFRIMATION OF DELISTING FROM THE TORONTO STOCK EXCHANGE
9 March 2012
Further to the announcement of Thursday, 1 March 2012, the Board of Directors of Noventa confirms that the voluntary delisting of the Company's ordinary shares from the Toronto Stock Exchange took place at the close of trading on Thursday, 8 March 2012.
The Company's ordinary shares continue to trade on AIM and PLUS.
Implications of the delisting for shareholders on the Canadian branch register only
Prior to the closing of the Canadian branch register (the "Canadian register"), shareholders and/or CDS participants currently on the Canadian branch register can request to have their shareholdings transferred to the United Kingdom main register (the "UK register") by instructing their broker to initiate the transfer.
If a shareholder on the Canadian register does not activate a move to the UK register by Wednesday, 14 March 2012, their Canadian share positions will be automatically cancelled and moved to an issuer sponsored holding on the UK register. Shareholders whose shareholding is moved to an UK issuer sponsored holding will be sent an issuer sponsored holding statement, either through their broker or directly.
Shareholders on the Canadian register are encouraged to contact the Company's Canadian registrar, Computershare Investor Services Inc., for information on 1-800-564-6253 (toll free within North America) or 1-514-982-7555.
