Eland Oil & Gas PLC
("Eland" or the "Company")
Conversion of Shares by Helios Natural Resources Ltd.
("Helios")
Eland Oil & Gas PLC (AIM:ELA), the oil and gas production,
development and exploration company operating in West Africa with a
principal focus on Nigeria, announces that following the recent
$19.5m placing ("June Placing"), where Helios' shareholding in the
Company was reduced to 26.36%, Helios has requested the conversion
of its remaining 6,296,815 non-voting ordinary shares into voting
ordinary shares in the Company to bring its voting rights closer to
their position pre-June Placing.
Following the conversion, Helios will cease to hold any
non-voting ordinary shares and will hold 62,670,073 voting ordinary
shares in the Company, which will represent 28.47% of the enlarged
issued voting ordinary share capital. The Company will no longer
have any non-voting shares in issue and does not, at this time,
intend to issue any further non-voting shares.
Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for the
admission to trading of the new voting ordinary shares, which is
expected at 8.00am on 28 June 2017.
The Company's enlarged issued share capital immediately
following admission will consist of 220,164,155 voting ordinary
shares. This figure may be used by shareholders in the Company as
the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine
if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to
their interest in, Eland under the Financial Conduct Authority's
Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
