Results of General Meeting
Following the announcement of 11 August 2010 with respect to the publication of
a circular containing detailed proposals for the reconstruction and winding up
of the Company (the "Circular"), the Company held the first general meeting on
10 September 2010 at which special resolutions were proposed and passed, inter
alia, to amend the Company's articles of association, to reclassify the
ordinary shares of 25p each in the capital of the Company ("Shares") into
reclassified shares and to approve the implementation of the Scheme.
Results of Elections
Of the 21,169,163 Shares in issue at the time of publication of the Circular:
* 16,856,621 elected (or were defaulted pursuant to the terms of the
proposals) into cash; and
* 4,312,542 elected (or were defaulted pursuant to the terms of the Scheme)
to receive shares in the Invesco Perpetual UK Smaller Companies Growth
Fund.
Reclassification of Shares
As a result of the elections referred to above, 16,856,621 Shares will be
reclassified as Shares with A rights and 4,312,542 Shares will be reclassified
as Shares with B rights (together, "Reclassified Shares").
Application will be made to the UK Listing Authority and the London Stock
Exchange for the listing in respect of the Shares to be amended to reflect the
reclassification of the Shares as Reclassified Shares. It is expected that such
amendment will become effective and dealings in the Reclassified Shares will
commence with effect from 8.00 a.m. on 30 September 2010.
Suspension of Reclassified Shares
It is expected that the listing of the Reclassified Shares will be suspended at
7.30 a.m. on 1 October 2010.
The Scheme remains conditional on the passing of the special resolution which
will be proposed at the Second Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company to
be held at 10 a.m. on 1 October 2010.
Capitalised terms shall have the meanings given to them in the Circular unless
otherwise defined.
