Cancellation of Trading on AIM
Astaire Group plc ("Astaire") announced on 20 July 2009 that it owned, or had
received valid acceptances in respect of, 29,929,755 Dowgate Shares,
representing approximately 75.80 per cent. of the total voting rights of Dowgate
and that the Offer for the Company was unconditional in all respects. Astaire
also announced that it would procure that Dowgate makes application to the
London Stock Exchange for the cancellation of admission to trading on AIM of the
Company's shares.
The Company announces that cancellation will take place at 7.00am on Tuesday 18
August 2009.
As Astaire owns or has acceptances in respect of more than 75 per cent. of
Dowgate Shares, cancellation will taken place without the approval of Dowgate
shareholders.
As Astaire stated this morning, cancellation of the admission to trading of
Dowgate Shares on AIM would significantly reduce the liquidity and marketability
of any Dowgate Shares not acquired by Astaire through the Offer and the value of
any such Dowgate Shares may be affected as a consequence. In addition, certain
protections afforded to shareholders in an AIM listed company will no longer be
available.
Shareholders who wish to accept the Offer and have not already done so, should
refer to the announcement by Astaire of 20 July 2009 and to the relevant Offer
documentation.
