Companies Act 1985 · 1985 c. 6View on legislation.gov.uk

Part III: Capital Issues — Chapter II: Issues by Companies Incorporated, or to be Incorporated, Outside Great Britain

There may on the applicant's request be given by or on behalf of that stock exchange a certificate that, having regard to the proposals (as stated in the request) as to the size and other circumstances of the issue of shares or debentures and as to any limitation on the number and class of persons to whom the offer is to be made, compliance with Schedule 3 would be unduly burdensome.

If a certificate is given under subsection (2), and if the proposals above mentioned are adhered to and the particulars and information required to be published in connection with the application for permission to the stock exchange are so published, then—

a prospectus giving the particulars and information in the form in which they are so required to be published is deemed to comply with Schedule 3, and
except as respects the requirement for the prospectus to be dated, section 72 does not apply to any issue, after the permission applied for is given, of a prospectus or form of application relating to the shares or debentures.
