St. Helen's Capital Plc
("St Helen's Capital" or "the Company")
Result of Annual General Meeting ("AGM")
At the AGM of the Company held today Shareholder approval was granted to pass resolutions 1, 2, 3 and 4. Special resolutions 5, 6 and 7 did not receive Shareholder approval.
As a result of the above, Shareholders have approved the Reports and Accounts, re-elected Mr. Jonathan Pither as a Director and allotted relevant Ordinary Shares necessary to complete the acquisition of Marechale Capital Limited. However, the Company has not allotted the relevant Ordinary Shares necessary to complete the Bluehone Transaction, adopted New Articles or changed its name to Marechale Capital PLC.
Following the AGM and in consultation with a number of Shareholders, the Board is has decided to convene a further general meeting in early 2010, at which it will propose resolutions in connection with the Articles of Association, the change of name and a specific resolution in respect of the Bluehone Transaction.
A further announcement will be made in due course.
Capitalised terms used in this announcement carry the same meaning as those defined in the circular sent to Shareholders on 23 November 2009, unless the context requires otherwise.
