Ken Lever, Chairman of WANdisco plc, commented:
"The passing of these important resolutions is a critical milestone for funding the company and supporting the re-listing process, which I believe is important for the benefit of all our shareholders and stakeholders. I would like to thank our shareholders for their overwhelming support. This follows a fulsome consultation where I have personally met a large majority of our shareholder base and received strong support for the Board's plans. We will now move to the next stage of our capital raising plans which will include an investor roadshow later in June and will keep our shareholders informed as appropriate."
