Court Sanction of Scheme of Arrangement
In connection with the Scheme of Arrangement to effect the
Acquisition, GTL is pleased to announce that the Scheme was
sanctioned by the Court earlier today.
The Acquisition remains subject to the confirmation by the Court
of the associated Capital Reduction at the Reduction Court Hearing
on 16 January 2012 and the delivery of the Court Orders to the
Registrar of Companies. Subject to the Court confirming the Capital
Reduction at the Reduction Court Hearing, it is anticipated that
the Scheme will become Effective on Tuesday, 17 January 2012 and
that admission of the GTL Shares to trading on AIM will be
cancelled with effect from 7.00 a.m. on Tuesday, 17 January
2012.
Sinav announces that valid elections for the Unlisted Securities
Alternative as at 1.00 p.m. on 12 January 2012 (being the latest
time by which Forms of Election for the Unlisted Securities
Alternative and TTE Instructions in respect of the same had to be
received) were received in respect of, in aggregate, 1,558,756
Scheme Shares, representing approximately 4.87 per cent. of the
issued ordinary share capital of GTL. Accordingly, the threshold
for the implementation of the Unlisted Securities Alternative has
not been reached and GTL Shareholders who elected for the Unlisted
Securities Alternative will instead receive Cash Consideration in
respect of the Scheme Shares which were subject to such elections,
in accordance with the terms of the Offer.
Terms used in this announcement shall (unless the context
otherwise requires) have the same meanings as set out in the Scheme
Document dated 19 November 2011.
A copy of this announcement will be made available on GTL's
website at www.gtlresources.com/investor-relations as soon as
practicable.

Disclosure Requirements of the Code
Under Rule 8.3(a) of the Code, any person who is interested in
one per cent. or more of any class of relevant securities of GTL or
of any paper offeror (being any offeror other than an offeror in
respect of which it has been announced that its offer is, or is
likely to be, solely in cash) must make an Opening Position
Disclosure following the commencement of the offer period and, if
later, following the announcement in which any paper offeror is
first identified. An Opening Position Disclosure must contain
details of the person's interests and short positions in, and
rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of each of (i) GTL
and (ii) any paper offeror(s). An Opening Position Disclosure by a
person to whom Rule 8.3(a) applies must be made by no later than
3.30 p.m. (London time) on the 10th business day following the
commencement of the offer period and, if appropriate, by no later
than 3.30 p.m. (London time) on the 10th business day following the
announcement in which any paper offeror is first identified.
Relevant persons who deal in the relevant securities of GTL or of a
paper offeror prior to the deadline for making an Opening Position
Disclosure must instead make a Dealing Disclosure.
Under Rule 8.3(b) of the Code, any person who is, or becomes,
interested in one per cent. or more of any class of relevant
securities of GTL or of any paper offeror must make a Dealing
Disclosure if the person deals in any relevant securities of GTL or
of any paper offeror. A Dealing Disclosure must contain details of
the dealing concerned and of the person's interests and short
positions in, and rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities
of each of (i) GTL and (ii) any paper offeror, save to the extent
that these details have previously been disclosed under Rule 8. A
Dealing Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(b) applies must be
made by no later than 3.30 p.m. (London time) on the business day
following the date of the relevant dealing.
If two or more persons act together pursuant to an agreement or
understanding, whether formal or informal, to acquire or control an
interest in relevant securities of GTL or a paper offeror, they
will be deemed to be a single person for the purpose of Rule
8.3.
Opening Position Disclosures must also be made by GTL and by any
offeror and Dealing Disclosures must also be made by GTL, by any
offeror and by any persons acting in concert with any of them (see
Rules 8.1, 8.2 and 8.4).
Details of the offeree and offeror companies in respect of whose
relevant securities Opening Position Disclosures and Dealing
Disclosures must be made can be found in the Disclosure Table on
the Takeover Panel's website at www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk,
including details of the number of relevant securities in issue,
when the offer period commenced and when any offeror was first
identified. If you are in any doubt as to whether you are required
to make an Opening Position Disclosure or a Dealing Disclosure, you
should contact the Panel's Market Surveillance Unit on +44 (0)20
7638 0129.
