Result of General Meeting

Disposal of ModAmont

 

Tarsus Group plc (LSE: TRS), the international business-to-business media group is pleased to announce that the Resolution put to Shareholders at the General Meeting held earlier today was duly passed.

 

On 3 October 2011 the Company announced that it had reached agreement to dispose of the Group's 51 per cent. interest in ModAmont to its joint venture partner, Premiere Vision. Owing to its significant shareholding in ModAmont, Premiere Vision was considered to be a related party for the purposes of the Listing Rules. The Disposal, therefore, constituted a related party transaction and was conditional upon the approval of Shareholders at a general meeting. A circular was posted to Shareholders on 7 November 2011 providing Shareholders with details of the Disposal and a notice convening the General Meeting. Following the passing of the Resolution, notice to exercise the put option will be given shortly in relation to the Disposal and completion is expected to take place in early December 2011.
