Globaltrans announces results of Extraordinary General Meeting of shareholders

 

Globaltrans Investment PLC (the "Company" and together with its consolidated subsidiaries "Globaltrans" or the "Group"; LSE ticker GLTR) announces that the Company held its Extraordinary General Meeting of shareholders ("EGM") on 20 December 2011 at 6 Karaiskakis Street, City House, 3rd Floor, P.C. 3032, Limassol, Cyprus.

The resolutions proposed at the EGM, all of which required approval by more than 75% of the shares of those shareholders entitled to vote, were duly passed. Envesta Investments Limited ("EIL"), being a party to the transaction which required holding of this meeting, was not entitled to vote and therefore abstained on all items of the agenda. Detailed voting results may be found in the Minutes of the General Meeting attached as Appendix 1 of this announcement.

With 111,433,657 votes in favour (representing 82.4% of the shares entitled to vote), the Company was duly authorised to purchase up to 3,637,117 ordinary shares, constituting 2.3% of the issued share capital of the Company, from EIL. The price per share was fixed at USD 11.87, which is the weighted average price of the global depositary receipts of the Company (each representing one ordinary share) on the London Stock Exchange for the five trading days prior to the date of the EGM[1]. Thus the agreement for the purchase of the shares from EIL, which was signed by the Company and EIL on 28 November 2011 subject to shareholder approval, came into force after the related resolutions were approved by the EGM. The transaction contemplated by the agreement is expected to be closed by 2 January 2012.

Commenting on today's announcement Mikhail Loganov, Member of the Board of Directors of Globaltrans, Executive Director, said: "Today's EGM decision authorises the Company to purchase its own shares at a very favourable price. These purchased shares can be potentially used in future M&A transactions, sold to the market or cancelled".
