("ParOS" or "the Company")
Statement re: Suspension
Further to previous announcements regarding the search for a potential
acquisition target in accordance with the Company's investment strategy, as
approved by shareholders on 28 March 2008, the Company has, to date, been
unable to complete any such acquisition and in accordance with Rule 15 of the
AIM Rules trading in the Company's shares on AIM has been suspended with effect
from 7.00 a.m. today.
Following the suspension of the Company's shares from trading on AIM, the
Company is able to announce that it signed non-legally binding heads of terms
on 25 February 2009 for the acquisition of a business in accordance with its
investment strategy. The consideration for the business is intended to be
satisfied by the issue of new ordinary shares in ParOS.
In view of the relative size of the business, the proposed transaction would be
classified as a reverse takeover of ParOS under the AIM Rules and accordingly
the acquisition would be subject, amongst other things, to approval by the
shareholders of the Company. A considerable amount of work has yet to be
undertaken by ParOS to conclude the transaction. As a result, ParOS shares will
remain suspended until an admission document containing full details of the
proposed acquisition and of the enlarged entity is published and a general
meeting of the Company is convened to approve the acquisition. There can be no
certainty that any such transaction will be concluded or as to the terms on
which any such acquisition may be made.
In the event that the acquisition or another reverse takeover transaction is
not effected by 28 September 2009, trading in the Company's shares on AIM will
be cancelled.
A further announcement will be made in due course.
