|
|
Following the issue of shares by the issuer pursuant to a rights issue on 20 April 2020, Yew Tree Overseas Limited ("Yew Tree")'s indirect holding of voting rights has increased, as set out above.
Securities Services Nominees Limited holds a number of shares in the issuer as nominee for other shareholders in addition to the shares it holds in its capacity as nominee for Yew Tree, hence the discrepancy between the percentages of voting rights held by Securities Services Nominees Limited and Yew Tree in Box 9 above.
A number of other persons who indirectly hold shares in the issuer (the "Consortium Members"), have given personal undertakings to Lawrence Stroll that they will exercise the voting rights attaching to the shares in the issuer directly or indirectly held by them in accordance with Lawrence Stroll's instructions. Lawrence Stroll therefore indirectly holds the voting rights attaching to the shares in the issuer directly and indirectly held by the Consortium Members.
