Directors' Dealing
Further to the announcements made earlier today regarding the Placing and Acquisition (together the "Prior Announcements"), Belvoir is pleased to announce that certain Directors and key management of the Company have agreed to subscribe for a total of 62,500 new Ordinary Shares of 1 pence each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") on the same terms as the Placing, being 112 pence per share (the "Subscription" and the "Subscription Shares").
The Subscription has raised gross proceeds of approximately £70,000 and is in addition to the £2.5 million raised through the Placing as announced earlier today.
The Subscription will utilise the Company's existing authorities to allot Ordinary Shares and therefore does not require shareholder approval. Completion of the Subscription is conditional on admission of the Subscription Shares to trading on AIM. The Subscription Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing Ordinary Shares.
In addition, the Company is pleased to announce that Mike Goddard, Executive Chairman and CEO of Belvoir, has sold £650,000 of Existing Ordinary Shares at the Placing Price.
The Directors' interests as at today and following completion of the Subscription and the Placing are as follows:
As at the date of this Announcement | Upon Admission | ||||
Director | Number of Existing Ordinary Shares | Percentage of Existing Ordinary Shares | Subscription Shares | Shareholding following the Subscription and the Fundraising | Percentage of the enlarged share capital** |
Mike Goddard | 7,773,922 | 24.8% | Nil | 7,193,565 | 21.37% |
Louise George | 17,250 | 0.05% | 17,857 | 35,107 | 0.10% |
Andrew Borkowski | 15,615 | 0.05% | 8,929 | 24,544 | 0.07% |
Nick Leeming | 15,500 | 0.05% | 8,929 | 24,427 | 0.07% |
** Following completion of the Subscription and the Placing
Admission to AIM
Application for admission to trading on AIM of the Subscription Shares ("Admission") has been made and it is expected that Admission will become effective and dealings in the Subscription Shares will occur on 8 June 2016.
The number of Ordinary Shares in the capital of the Company in issue and number of voting rights following admission of all of the Placing Shares and Subscription Shares will be 33,660,160. The above figure may be used by Shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine whether they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
Other than where defined, capitalised terms used in this announcement have the meanings given to them in the Prior Announcements.
