Court Meeting Voting Results
Further to bwin.party's announcement on 8 September 2011, at the Company's Court Meeting convened by bwin.party's Notice of Court Meeting dated 8 September 2011 and held in Gibraltar today, the resolution to approve a scheme of arrangement, pursuant to the Gibraltar Companies Act, to effect an intra-Group reorganisation (the 'Scheme'), was passed on a poll by the Company's shareholders.
The results of the poll were as follows:
Resolution | Total | For | Against | Abstain | ||
To approve a scheme of arrangement pursuant to Sections 205 and 206 of the Gibraltar Companies Act | Votes Cast | Number | % of shares voted | Number | % of shares voted | Number |
498,248,879 | 498,236,358 | 99.99% | 12,521 | 0.01% | 226 | |
Note: 847,377,860 shares of 0.015 pence per share in issue as at 6 October 2011, of which 3,915,450 shares are held in the bwin.party Shares Trust (the 'Trust') and the trustee of the Trust has waived all voting rights in respect of these shares. Therefore the total number of shares with voting rights was 843,462,410.
Completion of the Scheme requires the sanction of the Court at the Court Hearing scheduled in Gibraltar on 19 October 2011.
The Company will submit a copy of the resolution with the Financial Services Authority and it will shortly be available for inspection at www.Hemscott.com/nsm.doc.
