Details of transactions and events giving rise to substantial holding
Details of the transactions or other events requiring disclosure:
The trustees of the Sinclair Investment Trust subscribed for 8,437,500 shares in Me
Today’s rights issue at the issue price of 8 cents per share and as part of the intended
winding-up of MTL Securities Limited (MTL) directed that 752,585 shares be issued to M&N
Kerr Holdings Limited, resulting in 7,684,915 shares being held by the trustees as
registered holder. This issue was approved by shareholders for the purposes of rule 7(d)
of the Takeovers Code at the special meeting of shareholders of Me Today held on 8 March
2024 (SSM) (as described in the notice of meeting released to the market on 23 February
2024) (SSM Materials).
In addition, the trustees are entitled to the transfer of 2,932,057 shares in MTL on
completion of the winding-up of MTL (which has not yet occurred). This intended transfer
was approved for the purposes of rule 7(c) of the Takeovers Code at the SSM (as described
in SSM Materials).
Pending completion of the formal winding-up of MTL, the trustees are deemed to also have
a relevant interest by the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2023 in all 6,846,137 shares
(12.603%) currently registered in the name of MTL Securities Limited as the trustees have
a relevant interest in more than 20% of MTL. However, 3,914,080 of these shares have
been excluded from the totals disclosed above so as avoid giving a misleading impression
of the relevant interests the trustees are intended to hold once the winding-up of MTL is
completed.
