Bangkok--Apr 4--SET
Senior Vice President of the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) Mr. Supakit Jirapraditkul disclosed that the SET would extend its temporary prohibition on net settlement and/or margin trading of Agripure Holdings Plc.’s common shares (APURE) and its rights to purchase shares (warrants) of Agripure Holdings Plc. (APURE-W1) for another 20 business days: from April 4 to May 9, 2005.
The SET has previously temporarily prohibited the trading of APURE and APURE-W1 by net settlement and/or margin basis for three times. The first period lasted for 5 business days, from Feb. 11 — 17, 2005. The second was for 10 business days, from Feb. 18 to Mar. 4, 2005. And, the third was for 20 business days, from Mar. 7 to Apr. 1, 2005.
However, there still have been unusual movements of trading volume, prices, and/or value of APURE and APURE-W1. Therefore, to prevent the negative repercussions, the SET will extend the previous prohibition of both APURE and APURE-W1 for the further 20 trading days.
