EJF Investments Ltd (the "Company")
Exercise of Warrants
The Company announces that Wolfson Equities LLC and CNF Investments II, LLC (together, the "Warrant Holders") have each exercised their warrants in full in respect of ordinary shares of no par value in the Company (the "Ordinary Shares"). In accordance with the terms of the warrants, the Warrant Holders have chosen to make a cashless exercise and each will be issued 334,236 new ordinary shares for a combined total of 668,472 new ordinary shares (the "New Ordinary Shares").
Application has been made for the admission to trading on the Specialist Fund Segment of the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange ("Admission") of the New Ordinary Shares to be issued pursuant to the exercise of shareholder warrants. The New Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing Ordinary Shares of the Company. Admission of the New Ordinary Shares is expected on 4 December 2017.
Following Admission, the number of Ordinary Shares in issue by the Company will be 54,543,142 and this figure 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. The Company does not hold any shares in treasury, and, following Admission, no outstanding warrants will be in issue.
The Company's NAV per Share is already calculated on a fully diluted basis and so there will be no dilution to the Company's NAV per Share as a result of the exercise of the warrants. The Company's NAV will increase by the liability representing the dilution from the exercise of the warrants.
