Press Information
Cancellation of the special meeting of stockholders to be held on 8 September
2009
With reference to the announcement dated 1 September 2009 regarding the
convening of a special meeting of stockholders to be held on 8 September 2009,
it is further announced that the notice seeking to convene this meeting has been
withdrawn.
Proposal to cancel the admission of AOI's common stock to trading on AIM
AOI intends to put to stockholders proposals to cancel the admission of its
common stock to trading on AIM ("De-listing"). The Directors of AOI consider,
inter alia, that the benefits of maintaining a listing on AIM are out-weighed by
the costs incurred in maintaining such a listing and that AOI derives little
benefit in terms of the liquidity in its shares or in its ability to raise new
capital. In addition, the Directors do not believe that the market places an
appropriate valuation on AOI or its shares.
A circular to stockholders convening a special meeting of the stockholders of
AOI at which the De-listing will be proposed will be despatched in due course.
Board changes
AOI announces that the following changes to the Board of AOI are to be
implemented:
1 William Christy has stood down as the Chief Executive Officer and as a
Director of AOI with immediate
effect;
2 Scott Baily has stood down as a Non-executive Director of AOI with
immediate effect; and
3 Ian Johnson is standing down as the Non-executive Chairman of AOI with
effect from the De-listing.
Commenting on these changes, Ian Johnson, Non-executive Chairman, said "William
Christy and Scott Baily have played a significant role in the development of
AOI. Bill led AOI from its inception and having recently raised $2.6 million in
a difficult market, announced yesterday the completion of a 60 patient clinical
trial. I would like to thank them for their contribution and wish them well for
the future".
