Notes
1. Any proxy appointments which gave discretion to the Chairman
have been included in the "Votes For" total.
2. A "Vote Withheld" is not a valid vote in English law and was
not counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes "For"
or "Against" a resolution.
3. As at the date on which members had to be entered in the
register of members of the Company in order to be entitled to
attend and vote at the Adjourned General Meeting, the issued share
capital of the Company (the "ISC") was 52,499,998 Ordinary
Shares.
Trading and corporate update
As of 25 May 2023, the Company had cash of approximately
GBP248,000 (25 April 2023: GBP516,000) with contractual liabilities
of approximately GBP72,000 (25 April 2023: GBP231,000). The Company
has no trade but relatively significant on-going expenses.
Given the Company's cash position, its current contractual
liabilities, the contingent liabilities it has to consider and the
ongoing cost run-rate, the Directors, in consultation with the
Company's advisers, are assessing the solvency of the Company and a
further announcement will be made as soon as is practicably
possible. It should be noted that the Company has to assess the
costs and timelines involved in any insolvent liquidation process
when assessing its current solvency position.
As previously stated, the Company does not intend to enter into
an acquisition or acquisitions which constitute a reverse takeover
under Rule 14 of the AIM Rules. Furthermore, no approach has been
received from any third-party presenting a credible option for the
Company to undertake such a transaction since becoming a cash shell
and the Company is not actively seeking such a solution. Similarly,
the Company has not received any proposals to provide additional
funding to the Company since becoming a cash shell.
