104.—(1) In this regulation, “redenomination” means converting shares from having a fixed nominal value in one currency to having a fixed nominal value in another currency.
(2) A protected cell company may redenominate the shares, or any class of shares, issued on behalf of a part of the protected cell company.
(3) Before carrying out such a redenomination, the protected cell company must—
(a)notify all of the persons holding the shares, or class of shares, issued on behalf of that part of the proposed redenomination; and
(b)obtain their consent to the redenomination.
(4) The conversion must be made at an appropriate spot rate of exchange specified in the notification.
(5) The rate must be either—
(a)a rate prevailing on a day specified in the notification; or
(b)a rate determined by taking the arithmetic mean of the rates prevailing on each consecutive day of a period specified in the notification.
(6) The day or period specified for the purposes of paragraph (5) must be within the period of 28 days ending on the day on which consent is given (or the last such day if consent is given by different persons on different days).
(7) The notification may make the proposed redenomination subject to conditions which must be met before the redenomination takes effect.
(8) Redenomination in accordance with this regulation takes effect—
(a)on the day on which consent is given (or the last such day if consent is given by different persons on different days); or
(b)on such later date as may be determined in accordance with the notification.
(9) But consent to a notification is deemed to be withdrawn if the redenomination to which it relates has not taken effect by the end of the period of 28 days beginning on the day on which consent is given (or the last such day if consent is given by different persons on different days).
(10) A protected cell company’s instrument of incorporation may prohibit or restrict the power conferred by this regulation.
