Change to interests of a significant shareholder

 

Integumen has received a notification of a change in the interests of a significant shareholder. In accordance with AIM Rule 17, the following details are now notified:

 

On 1 July 2019, the Company was informed by Turner Pope Investments ("TPI") Limited, the Company's broker that they had received a request from an advisor to Open Orphan plc (formerly Venn Life Sciences Holdings plc ("Venn-OO")), under the conditions of the orderly market agreement, to assist in the disposal of Venn-OO's entire holding of 30,071,428 ordinary shares, representing 3.07%, of the Company. There being high liquidity and pent up demand for large blocks of shares in the Company, TPI arranged for an orderly disposal of the Venn-OO shares to be placed with existing long-term shareholders, thereby eliminating any overhang on the open market.

After the disposal administration was concluded, the Company has today received a TR-1 from Venn-OO and now confirms that Venn-OO no longer holds any ordinary shares of Integumen.

In compliance with DTR5, a copy of the notification received from this investor is appended below.
