Scheme becomes Effective and re-registration
The board of directors of SEGRO plc and Brixton Limited (formerly Brixton plc,
("Brixton")) are pleased to announce that the Scheme to implement the
recommended acquisition of Brixton by SEGRO plc has become Effective in
accordance with its terms and that Brixton has been re-registered as a private
limited company.
Pursuant to the Scheme, a total of 47,548,742 Consideration Shares were issued
by SEGRO today to Brixton Shareholders on the register at 5:00 p.m. on 21 August
2009 on the basis of 0.175 Consideration Shares for every Scheme Share held at
that time. The Consideration Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with
the existing SEGRO Shares.
The total number of SEGRO Shares in issue with voting rights following this
issue is 734,333,520.
It is anticipated that admission of the Consideration Shares to the Official
List of the UK Listing Authority will occur and dealings in the Consideration
Shares on the London Stock Exchange's main market will commence at 8:00 a.m.
tomorrow (25 August 2009). It is further anticipated that dealings in Brixton
Shares on the London Stock Exchange's main market will be cancelled and the
Brixton Shares delisted from the Official List, with effect from 8:00 a.m.
(London time) on 25 August 2009. The listing of Brixton Shares on the Official
List and trading on the London Stock Exchange's main market was suspended with
effect from 7:30 a.m. (London time) this morning.
It is expected that Consideration Shares will be credited to CREST accounts at
8:00 a.m. tomorrow (25 August 2009) and that certificates for Consideration
Shares held in certificated form and cheques in respect of any cash
consideration arising as a result of fractional entitlements to Consideration
Shares will be despatched by 7 September 2009.
The Transaction values the entire issued and to be issued ordinary share capital
of Brixton at approximately GBP165.5 million and each Brixton Share at 60.92
pence (based on the Closing Price of 348.10 pence per SEGRO Share on 21 August
2009, the last practicable date before the Effective Date of the Scheme),
representing:
* a premium of approximately 22.4 per cent. to the Closing Price of 49.74 pence
per Brixton Share on 21 May 2009 (being the last Business Day prior to the
commencement of the Offer Period); and
* a premium of approximately 109.3 per cent. to Brixton's three month average
share price of 29.10 pence per Brixton Share prior to 21 May 2009 (being the
last Business Day prior to the commencement of the Offer Period).
