("Vast" or the "Company")
Exercise of Conversion Rights
Vast Resources plc, the AIM-listed mining company with operations in
Romania and Zimbabwe, announces that Bracknor Fund Limited ("Bracknor")
has given notice to the Company that it elects to convert the balance,
being GBP208,500, of its one year convertible loan notes ("Convertible
Loan Notes") of GBP1,608,500 (US$2,000,000) to the Company into
139,000,000 ordinary shares of 0.1 pence each (the "Conversion Shares")
at an exercise price of 0.15 pence per share in accordance with the
terms of the Convertible Loan, as announced on 11 October 2016.
Post this exercise, there remains only a fee of US$250,000 (GBP201,061)
due to Bracknor, as announced on 11 October 2016, which is to be
satisfied by the issue to Bracknor of loan notes of the same value and
on the same terms as the Convertible Loan Notes (the "Fee Loan Notes").
The Fee Loan Notes have been issued to Bracknor and, accordingly, a
total of GBP201,061 of loan notes held by Bracknor now remain
outstanding.
Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange plc for
139,000,000 new Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on the AIM
market with admission expected to occur on or around 28 November 2016
("Admission"). The issued new Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu in
all respects with the existing Ordinary Shares.
Following Admission the issued ordinary share capital of Vast will
consist of 4,271,552,044 Ordinary Shares. There are no Ordinary Shares
held in treasury. 4,271,552,044 represents the total number of voting
rights in the Company and may be used by shareholders as the denominator
for the calculations by which they can determine if they are required to
notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in the Company
under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure and Transparency
Rules.
