Gledhow Investments plc / GB0008842717

Gledhow Investments plc (“Gledhow” or the “Company”)     Acquisition, Issue of Convertible Loan Notes and Treasury Shares     The Company is pleased to announce that it has acquired a combination of LSE, AIM and Aquis listed and quoted shares, and a small number of unlisted pre-IPO shares, valued at their mid-prices, or last round values in the case of unlisted shares, for a total value of £441,182 (the “Acquisition”). The consideration payable has been satisfied by the issue of the 9,949,084 ordinary shares of £0.01  each in the Company (Ordinary Shares”) previously held in treasury (the “Treasury Shares”) and the balance of £398,899 is payable in two-year secured, over assets of the Company, convertible loan notes (“CLNs”).   The Treasury Shares and the CLNs will be issued to P3 Capital Limited and P4 Capital Limited (the “Vendors”). The CLNs will be convertible into Ordinary Shares in Gledhow (“New Ordinary Shares”) at £0.00425 per share (the “Conversion Price”), which is the mid-price of the Company’s shares on closing on 20 May 2025, the last practical date prior to this announcement . The secured CLNs bear an interest rate of 5% per annum, payable in New Ordinary Shares at the Conversion Price and/or cash at the holders’ discretion. Any CLNs remaining unconverted on the two-year anniversary of issuance will be automatically converted into New Ordinary Shares at the Conversion Price. Any such conversion is subject to any regulatory approval and/or Takeover Panel requirements.   This transaction provides the opportunity to significantly increase the size of Gledhow’s overall portfolio, and the Board is actively seeking further such portfolio acquisitions to attempt to differentiate the Company from the plethora of sub-scale UK listed investment companies.  All such deals will involve Gledhow receiving a basket of tradeable shares that can be monetised, allowing the Company to acquire further cash in order to carry out its investment policy, whilst seeking to expand its investment strategy in due course.     Following the issue of the Treasury Shares and assuming full conversion of the CLNs, the Vendors’ holdings in Gledhow will be:  

Vendor	Ordinary shares prior to Acquisition	Ordinary Shares following issue of the Treasury Shares	% Issued Share Capital following issue of the Treasury Shares	No. of shares following conversion of CLNs	% Enlarged Issued Share Capital following conversion of CLNs
