Malin provides update on Litigation by Founder Shareholders
Dublin-Ireland, 13 October 2021 : Malin Corporation plc
(Euronext Growth Dublin:MLC) ("Malin", the "Company") announces,
further to the announcement on 8 October 2021, that Irish High
Court proceedings have been initiated by the holders of 2,803,801 A
Ordinary Shares in the Company ("the Founders") against the
Company.
The Founders claim an entitlement to the conversion of their A
Ordinary Shares into Ordinary Shares and have reserved their right
to apply to Court in the course of the legal proceedings for an
Order restraining the Company from implementing any capital returns
to ordinary shareholders of Malin pending the conversion. As
announced on 8 October 2021, the Company rejected the conversion
notices previously submitted to the Company by the Founders, on the
basis that no change of control has occurred and the conversion
rights carried by A Ordinary Shares are not currently
exercisable.
The Board will take all necessary steps to vigorously defend the
Company and shareholders against the Founders' proceedings.
The Company remains intent on initiating a significant return of
capital to its shareholders by means of a tender offer before the
end of 2021.
Further announcements will be made in due course as and when
appropriate.
