Share Allotments and Connected Matters
 
Pursuant to the Placing and Open Offer announced on 8^th November 2017 and the announcement of 4^th December 2017 concerning the same, the Company wishes to inform the market that it today resolved to allot a further 35,800,000 ordinary shares of 0.1 pence (£0.001) each (“Shares”) in the capital of the Company (“New Shares”).
 
The issued share capital of the Company shall accordingly increase to 97,989,500 Shares from 62,189,500 Shares and the total number of New Shares issued and to be issued under the Placing and Open Offer is 36,100,000. 36,100,000 warrants to subscribe for a like number of Shares on the terms and conditions summarised in a Circular dated 7^th November 2017 (“Warrants”) have been or shortly shall be allotted and issued to Subscribers under the Placing and Open Offer pro rata to the subscriptions received and accepted by the Company.
 
The Warrants will be illiquid. No application is intended to be made to admit the Warrants to NEX Exchange Growth Market or another multilateral trading facility. The value (if any) attributable to the Warrants may therefore be reasonably determined solely by reference to the positive difference (if any) from time to time between the price at which the Warrants are exercisable and the price at which Hellenic’s Shares can be traded on NEX Exchange.
