Director Subscription
Further to its previous announcement of 20 December 2018, 8PG is pleased to confirm that Zafar Karim, Executive Chairman of the Company, and Lord Nicholas Monson, Non-Executive Director of the Company, have now subscribed for a total of 1,000,000 and 700,000 new ordinary shares of 0.1 pence each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares"), respectively, at a price of 10 pence per share.
Following the issue of these Ordinary Shares, Zafar Karim and Lord Nicholas Monson, will have beneficial interests in 1,412,861 and 720,000 Ordinary Shares, respectively, representing approximately 7.9% and 4.0%, respectively, of the enlarged Ordinary Share capital of the Company.
Settlement and Dealings
Application has been made for the 1,700,000 new Ordinary Shares to be issued under the Placing, which will rank pari passu with the existing Ordinary Shares in the Company, to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission"). It is expected that Admission will become effective and dealings will commence on or around 8:00a.m. on or around 3 January 2019.
Total Voting Rights
Following Admission, the issued share capital of the Company would consist of 17,988,255 Ordinary Shares. No shares are held in treasury at the date of this announcement. The total current voting rights in the Company will therefore be 17,988,255.
This figure of 17,988,255 Ordinary Shares 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 in their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
