Result of General Meeting

 

 

Pinewood announces that all the resolutions put to the General Meeting held today were approved by the requisite majority of shareholders on a show of hands, and therefore the Company will proceed with its proposal to (i) cancel the listing of the Ordinary Shares on the Official List and to remove such Ordinary Shares from trading on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange; (ii) apply for the Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM; and (iii) raise £5.4 million (before expenses) by way of the placing of 2,160,000 new Ordinary Shares at a price of 250 pence each, conditional on admission to AIM.

 

A copy of the Resolutions passed at the General Meeting has been submitted to the Financial Services Authority via the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at www.hemscott.com/nsm.do and on the Company's website www.pinewoodshepperton.com.

 

Next steps

 

It is expected that the last day of dealings in the Ordinary Shares on the Main Market will be 20 July 2012. Cancellation of the listing of Ordinary Shares on the Official List is expected to take effect at 8.00 a.m. on 23 July 2012. Admission is expected to take place, and dealings in Ordinary Shares (including the Placing Shares) are expected to commence on AIM, at 8.00 a.m. on 23 July 2012.

 

In connection with the application of the Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM, the Company expects, later today to submit to AIM a pre-admission announcement in accordance with Rule 2 of the AIM Rules for Companies and publish on its website a document containing all information that will be required to be included in an AIM Admission Document which is not currently public.

 

Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalised terms have the same meanings as set out in the Circular dated 30 May 2012.
