Notice of Cancellation of AIM Listing

15th Oct 2015 07:00

RNS Number : 3420C
Vmoto Limited
15 October 2015
 

 

NOTICE OF CANCELLATION OF AIM LISTING

 

ANNOUNCEMENT 15 OCTOBER 2015

 

 

 

Vmoto Limited (ASX/AIM: VMT) ("Vmoto" or the "Company") announces that the Company has decided to cancel the admission of its ordinary shares to trading on AIM (the "Cancellation") with effect from 7.00am (GMT) on 19 November 2015 (the "Cancellation Date").

 

The last trading day on AIM will be 18 November 2015. Up to and until this date, the Company's shares will continue to be traded on AIM and the Australian Securities Exchange ("ASX") on an uninterrupted basis. 

 

This decision has been made following a review of the Company's AIM listing by the Board. Given the Company's shareholder base is predominantly Australian, as well as the relatively low volume of trading in shares on AIM, the Board has concluded that the costs incurred in maintaining a secondary listing on AIM, exceeds the benefits obtained from the listing. On this basis, the Board considers it in the best interests of the Company and all shareholders to seek a cancellation of its shares from trading on AIM.

 

Vmoto will continue to maintain its listing on the ASX and shareholders wishing to trade the Company's shares after the Cancellation Date will be able to do so on the ASX and the Company has no intention of cancelling this listing. Accordingly, the Cancellation is not subject to shareholder approval.

 

The Company has approached UK based broker, Beaufort Securities Ltd and Australian based broker, Euroz Securities Limited, who can be contacted by shareholders on the UK register who do not have an account with a broker to trade their shares on the ASX with relative ease. As a result, shareholders currently on the UK register should not be materially prejudiced as a result of the delisting. Relevant contact details are set out below:

Euroz Securities Limited

Attn: Cameron Murray

Further Information

 

Following the cancellation of admission of the Company's Ordinary Shares on AIM, the Depositary Interests ("DI") which have been trading on AIM will be cancelled and holding statements will be issued to current DI holders. The Company will continue to be admitted to the Official List of the ASX and the Company's securities will continue to be traded on the ASX.

 

Computershare, as the Company's registrar, will shortly be writing to each DI holder on the UK register to advise them of the process in more detail.

 

If DI holders do nothing with their existing holdings, the transfer to the Australian register will happen automatically. Your shareholding interest in the Company will be transferred to the Australian based share register maintained by Computershare and an updated holding statement will be issued to you in due course.

 

For those not familiar with the Australian securities system, public information on the Company can be accessed through www.asx.com.au, an independent website on which all regulatory filings must be made.
