I've been reading the prospectus for the rights issue, and the planned date for the issue of new shares is 17th October. Now the requirement to hold a meeting to decide on the re-election/replacement of the three directors is within 2 months of the notice being received, which was on 12 September.

So the meeting may be held as late as 12 November, which raises two questions. Can it be combined with the AGM, and will the shares just issued be allowed to vote on the election of the three directors mentioned?

Given that it is such a large number of shares, it may make the difference on this vote, but this issue of capital would need to be voted on before the shares are valid.

Is it possible for the meeting to be required to vote on the issue of the new shares prior to the vote on the three directors?
