The Company will apply to the FCA for the new FWT Shares to be admitted to the Official List of the FCA and also to the London Stock Exchange for such FWT Shares to be admitted to trading on its market for listed securities. The Company will inform the FCA of the redesignation of the Ordinary Shares into FWT Shares and Deferred Convertible Preference Shares and, subsequently, the empty Ordinary Share class will be removed from the Official List in due course.
