resolution.
It will not be possible for shareholders to trade their ordinary
shares in the immediate short term following Cancellation. If the
Company's financial position allows it to do so, the Board may
consider implementing a Matched Bargain Facility in the future to
give shareholders an opportunity to trade their ordinary shares
following Cancellation. Further announcements will be made in due
course.
