Among the investors under the Subscription are two existing substantial shareholders of the Company, Constantine Logothetis and Nistadgruppen AS ("Nistad"). Mr Logothetis has subscribed for 2,608,696 new Ordinary Shares and Nistad for 1,304,348 new Ordinary Shares. As Mr Logothetis and Nistad each have an existing interest in more than 10% of the Company's Ordinary Shares, their subscriptions constitute related party transactions under the AQSE Growth Market Apex Rules. The Board has concluded, having exercised reasonable care, skill and diligence, that their Subscriptions are fair and reasonable as far as the shareholders of the Company are concerned.
The new Ordinary Shares will be allotted under the Company's existing unspent share issue authorities and are expected to be admitted to trading on the AQSE Growth Market on 29 December 2023 ("Admission").
Radu Florescu, Chairman of SulNOx, commented, "We are delighted to receive significant further support from our two largest shareholders, Mr Logothetis and Nistadgruppen AS, after both made earlier investments in recent months. This investor group includes new individual and institutional investors that bring additional welcome diversity to our capital base and strengthens the company's firepower. Most importantly, this new commitment of funds is testament to the encouraging progress SulNOx is making in expanding the global footprint of its key products to generate revenue, including from blue chip customers. It is a very significant vote of confidence in our strategy and materially aides SulNOx in achieving its goals. Funds will be used to establish product stock points in strategic locations worldwide to meet rising product demand, hire additional key personnel, further R&D for biofuels and general working capital. We look forward to reporting further progress in due course."
