13. Additional information: | Michael Spencer owned a majority shareholding in IPGL Limited and was deemed to be interested in all the shares in ICAP plc held by IPGL Limited and its wholly owned-subsidiaries INCAP Finance B.V. and INCAP Overseas B.V., as well as in shares in ICAP plc held by Michael Spencer personally. As part of a reorganisation of the group of companies of which IPGL Limited forms part, a new holding company, called IPGL (Holdings) Limited, was inserted above IPGL Limited and IPGL Limited's former shareholders now hold shares in IPGL (Holdings) Limited in the same proportions as they did in IPGL Limited immediately prior to the insertion. As result of that new holding company having been put in place, Michael Spencer was deemed to have disposed of his indirect interest in the shares in ICAP plc held through IPGL Limited and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and to have immediately reacquired it through his shareholding in IPGL (Holdings) Limited.
The CfD through which IPGL Limited holds an interest in ordinary shares of ICAP plc is cash settled and does not give IPGL Limited an entitlement to acquire any shares in ICAP plc. | |
