oh well,where do I start? at the beginning I suppose.lol
jabond. i am calm.i just don`t put blinkers on and pretend that all is wonderful.
star you say "commy, I'm not quite following your argument. FRR have a debt to YA. Agreement is that they can be paid in cash. YA don't have any shares so how can they be classed as a significant shareholder. I can't see how AIM rule 17 applies, so no need for an RNS?" that is not the case here is why

you have to do the maths with this as well because because each of ya`s preference shares has a value of $1100.so roughly speaking £770 or to put it another way we owe them $2.85 million which for accounting purposes is considered a liability or debt if you want to call it that.make no mistake though they are considered as shareholders and even more important to them,they hold shares that in the event of a huge problem are superior to ours.considering that their pref shares outstanding at the moment are worth approx. £2m and our market cap is a little over 42 million you have to consider them as not just a shareholder but a significant shareholder.
DEVEX.i see what you are saying and you are correct that the rules can be interpretted in different ways.the problem for me is that you are looking at with regard to "significant news"i am looking at it from the point of view as to what has to be declared.no matter what people say they are sisignificant shareholders and under the rules any change in their holding has to be declared regardless of the class of share.just the same if a director decides to sell $265,000 dollars worth.
