Additional Listing & Total Voting Rights
A listing application has been made today by the Company for 5,000,000 ordinary
shares of 5 pence each in the Company to be admitted to the Official List of
the UK Listing Authority and to trading on the London Stock Exchange on 3 March
2015. The shares will be issued fully paid and will rank pari passu in all
respects with the existing issued ordinary shares of the Company. The shares
are anticipated to be admitted to listing on 3 March 2015.
This figure represents shares issued to Salamanca Group Trust (Jersey) Limited,
trustee of the Pendragon Employee Benefit Trust (the "EBT") to be used to
satisfy awards and options granted under the Company's various employee share
incentive arrangements. Immediately following this issue, the EBT will hold
15,275,319 ordinary shares of 5 pence each in the Company representing
approximately 1.05% of the Company's issued share capital.
Following the issue of 5,000,000 ordinary shares and their admission to
trading, the Company has 1,460,320,656 ordinary shares of 5 pence each in
issue, representing a total ordinary share capital of £73,016,032.80. The
voting rights attached to the ordinary shares are on the basis of one vote per
share, representing total voting rights of 1,460,320,656. There are no shares
held in treasury.
This figure (1,460,320,656) may be used by shareholders (and others with
notification obligations) as the denominator for the calculations by which they
will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to
their interest in, the Company under the FSA's Disclosure and Transparency
Rules.
