Share Sub-division and Consolidation and Voting Rights and Capital
12 May 2014
Following the passing of all resolutions at the Annual General Meeting on 9 May 2014, the sub-division and consolidation of RSA Insurance Group plc’s (the “Company”) ordinary shares has become effective. As a result 1,013,785,211 new ordinary shares of £1 each in the Company were admitted to trading on the main market of the London Stock Exchange at 8:00 a.m. today. As at 12 May 2014, therefore, the Company’s issued share capital consists of 1,013,785,211 ordinary shares of £1 each and the total number of voting rights in the Company is 1,013,785,211.
The above figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change in their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
In connection with the sub-division and consolidation, mandates and other instructions for the payments of dividends, including any recurring scrip instruction received in paper form or via CREST, will, unless and until revised, continue to apply to the new ordinary shares of £1 each.
Also in connection with the sub-division and consolidation, the Company intends to effect a change to the American depositary share (“ADS”) ratio for its American depositary receipt programme from one ADS representing five ordinary shares to one ADS representing one ordinary share of £1 each.
