Further issue pursuant to Statutory Squeeze Out
Further to the issue of new ordinary shares in connection with the acquisition
of Dignity Plc announced on 5 May 2023, the Company today announces a further
issue of 7,479 Ordinary Shares in connection with the Listed Share Alternative
pursuant to the Statutory Squeeze Out.
Application has been made for the admission ("Admission") of 7,479 Ordinary
Shares to trading on the Specialist Fund Segment of the Main Market of the
London Stock Exchange, with Admission expected to take effect from 8.00 a.m.
on 20 July 2023.
Following Admission, the Company's issued share capital will consist of
318,635,257 Ordinary Shares, with no shares held in treasury. Therefore, the
total number of shares with voting rights in the Company will be 318,635,257.
This figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the
calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their
interest in, or a change to their interest in the Company under the FCA's
Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
Except where the context requires otherwise, defined terms in this
announcement shall have the meanings given to them in the prospectus published
by the Company on 1 February 2023 (as amended by a supplementary prospectus
published by the Company on 4 April 2023) (the "Prospectus"). A copy of the
