On 11 June 2026, Palace Capital plc (the "Company") published a circular (the "Circular") convening a General Meeting in connection with the proposed waiver (the "Waiver") under Rule 9 of the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers (the "Takeover Code") of the obligation that would otherwise arise on Lakestreet Capital Partners AG and its concert parties (together, the "Concert Party") to make a mandatory cash offer for the ordinary shares in the capital of the Company not already owned by the Concert Party, as a result of any purchases of Shares by the Company pursuant to its existing share buy-back authority.
