14 December 2015 PEWT Securities PLC ("PEWT Securities" or the "Company") Results of Elections by ZDP Shareholders On 20 November 2015, PEWT Securities plc ("PEWT Securities"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Premier Energy and Water Trust plc, published a circular containing details of a scheme of reconstruction of PEWT Securities (the "Scheme") and proposals to, inter alia, offer the holders of Existing ZDP Shares in PEWT Securities the opportunity to elect to roll their investment into New ZDP Shares in PEWT Securities 2020 plc ("PEWT Securities 2020"). The Board of PEWT Securities is pleased to announce the results of the Elections. Elections by ZDP Shareholders to participate in the Rollover Option exceeded the Maximum Issue Size, meaning that such Elections have been scaled back on a pro-rata basis. Each ZDP Shareholder who made a valid Election to receive New ZDP Shares will receive approximately 1,871 New ZDP Shares and £346.80 in cash for every 1,000 Existing ZDP Shares held on the Effective Date and for which they made a valid Election. Conditional on the Scheme becoming effective, 24,073,337 New ZDP Shares will be issued by PEWT Securities 2020. As the Maximum Issue Size was reached through the Rollover Option, there will be no Placing of New ZDP Shares. Application will be made for the New ZDP Shares to be admitted to the Official List and to trading on the London Stock Exchange and dealings are expected to commence at 8.00 a.m. on 4 January 2016. It is anticipated that CREST accounts will be credited (where applicable) on the same day and the New ZDP Shares will trade using the ticker PEZ and under the ISIN GB00BYP98L62. New share certificates in respect of the New ZDP Shares will be issued as soon as practicable following admission.
