LITEBULB GROUP LIMITED
("LiteBulb" or "the Company")
Result of General Meeting and Issue of Equity
LiteBulb (AIM: LBB), the provider of innovative product solutions from identification through to retail distribution, is pleased to announce that all of the resolutions proposed at the Company's General Meeting held today were duly passed. As a result, the acquisition of Bluwstuff Limited announced on 30 January 2013 (the "Acquisition") has been completed.
Application has been made for 250,000,000 Ordinary Shares of no par value ("Ordinary Shares") which will be issued as consideration for the Acquisition (the "Consideration Shares") to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission") and it is expected that Admission will occur on 18 February 2013.
The Company is also pleased to announce that the £450,000 two-year secured convertible loan, described in the announcement of 26 July 2012, has been converted into 90,000,000 Ordinary Shares (the "Conversion Shares") at a conversion price of 0.5 pence per ordinary share and it is expected that Admission of the Conversion Shares will occur on 18 February 2013. The £300,000 secured two-year term loan with a 7% coupon, described in the announcement of 26 July 2012, has been amended and is now a £300,000 unsecured term loan with a 7% coupon expiring on 26 July 2014.
Following admission of the Consideration Shares and the Conversion Shares the total number of voting rights in the Company will be 1,319,508,934. The Company does not hold any ordinary shares in treasury and therefore this figure may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the Financial Service Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
