RESULTS OF DIVIDEND ELECTION
On 28 October 2015 the Company declared a second interim dividend of 1.65 pence per share in respect of the year ended 31 August 2015 and offered shareholders an election to receive either a cash dividend or a scrip dividend by way of an issue of new Redefine International shares credited as fully paid up ("scrip dividend shares").
The Company is pleased to announce that election forms for 699,072,748 ordinary shares of 8 pence each in the Company ("ordinary shares") have been received, representing a 47.4 per cent take up by shareholders, for which 21,235,556 scrip dividend shares are to be issued, being approximately 1.44 per cent of the current issued share capital of the Company.
An application will be made for the scrip dividend shares, which will rank pari passu in all respects with the Company's existing issued ordinary shares, to be admitted to the Premium Segment of the Official List of the United Kingdom Listing Authority, to trading on the London Stock Exchange's Main Market for listed securities and to be listed on the JSE ("Admission"). It is expected that Admission will occur on Friday, 4 December 2015.
This announcement is being made ahead of the proposed schedule, prior to Admission.
Following Admission, the total number of voting rights will be 1,495,566,887 ("ISC"). No ordinary shares are held in treasury. The figure of 1,495,566,887 ordinary shares may then 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 UK Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
