RNS Number : 6019D Conygar Investment Company PLC(The) 03 March 2022
3 March 2022
THE CONYGAR INVESTMENT COMPANY PLC
(the "Company")
POSTING OF CIRCULAR AND NOTICE OF GENERAL MEETING
PROPOSED Disapplication of pre-emption rights and
cancellation of share premium account
The Company announces that it has today posted a circular to Shareholders (the
"Circular") which has attached to it a notice of a general meeting of the
Company to be held on 28 March 2022 (the "General Meeting"). At the General
Meeting, resolutions will be put to Shareholders asking them to approve:
(a) the granting of authority to issue up to 15,000,000 ordinary shares in the
Company (representing approximately 25 per cent. of the current issued share
capital of the Company) free of statutory pre-emption rights, with such
authority to expire on the earlier of 15 months from the passing of the
resolution and the date of the next Annual General Meeting of the Company.
The Directors believe it is important, particularly given the significant
further work that is necessary to progress the Island Quarter, that the
Company has flexibility in terms of funding options which it is able to access
quickly and efficiently. This includes the ability to issue new equity
otherwise than on a pre-emptive basis.
(b) the cancellation of the existing share premium account of the Company
(£10,158,929.21) and, with the approval of the Court, for the amount
cancelled to be credited to a distributable reserve, that will be
distributable and available to fund dividends and other distributions to
shareholders in the event that the Board determines to make any such dividends
or other distributions.
A copy of the Circular is available for inspection on the Company's website at
