Atrato Onsite Energy plc
Result of General Meeting - Members' Voluntary Liquidation of the Company
On 27 November 2024, Atrato Onsite Energy plc (the "Company") published a shareholder circular (the "Liquidation Circular") containing a notice of General Meeting (the "Notice") in relation to the proposed members' voluntary liquidation of the Company. At the General Meeting held earlier today, the special resolution to place the Company into members' voluntary liquidation, as set out in the Notice, was duly passed by way of a poll. Accordingly, Derek Neil Hyslop and Richard Peter Barker of Ernst & Young LLP have been appointed as joint liquidators of the Company (the "Liquidators").
The results of the poll, including the proxy votes received, were as follows:
Resolution | In favour (including discretionary) | Against | % of issued share capital | Votes withheld* | ||
Votes | % (of votes cast excl. withheld) | Votes | % (of votes cast excl. withheld) | |||
To approve the members' voluntary liquidation of the Company, appoint the Liquidators and grant the Liquidators certain powers.
| 71,454,718 | 99.93% | 50,856 | 0.07% | 47.67% | 8,983 |
* A vote withheld is not a vote in law and is therefore not counted towards the proportion of votes "in favour" or "against" a resolution.
Suspension and Cancellation of Shares
As set out in the Liquidation Circular, the Company's Ordinary Shares were suspended from listing on the Official List of the Financial Conduct Authority and from trading on the main market of the London Stock Exchange at 7.30 a.m. this morning, 13 December 2024, in anticipation of the General Meeting.
Applications have been made to the Financial Conduct Authority and to the London Stock Exchange for the cancellation of the listing and admission to trading of the Ordinary Shares, respectively, with effect from 8.00 a.m. on 16 December 2024.
Initial Distribution
As set out in the Liquidation Circular, it is anticipated that the Liquidators will be in a position to make an initial distribution of substantially all of the net assets of the Company in late January or early February 2025.
It is estimated that the value of the Initial Distribution will be no less than 77.0 pence per Ordinary Share.
