The Ordinary Shares were issued by Anglo Asian on 5 October 2018 pursuant to the exercise of share options over Ordinary Shares of the Company by a stock option holder.

The 75,000 new Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing ordinary shares of 1p each in the Company including the right to receive any dividend or other distribution thereafter declared, made or paid.

It is expected that Admission will become effective and that dealings in the new Ordinary Shares will commence on or around 12 October 2018.

Total Voting Rights

Following the issue of the new Ordinary Shares, the Company's issued share capital now consists of 114,392,024 ordinary shares of 1p each, none of which are held in treasury. Therefore, the total number of voting rights in the Company is 114,392,024.

The above figure of 114,392,024 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 in their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
