of the property.
The Nchanga company accordingly applied for per¬
mission to make an offer of shares for subscription by the members
of the Nchanga company sufficient to produce abou$
£4,000,000. * X
•'It was found that, in order to furnish the funds required for sub¬
scription of its pro rata proportion of Nchanga stock and also to
restore a reasonable amount of working capital, a sum of approxi¬
mately £500,000 would be needed.
To raise this sum by means of
an offer to individual stockholders was regarded as quite impracticable
in view of the very large number of stockholders concerned, among
whom would have been approximately 3,000 holders of small amounts
of stock who would have been excluded from applying if an offer had
be'en made on a pro rata basis.

The
directors accordingly
consulted the Anglo American Corp. of
South Africa, Ltd., and an agreement was reached whereby the latter
corporation wculd subscribe for 400,000 of the unissued shares of
Rhodesian Anglo American at 2s. under the market price on the day
on which the arrangement was finally agreed upon.
The price on that
day was 28s. 9d. so that the shares were sold at 26s. 9d. (or at a
premium of 16s. 9d, per share), x
X x
The Capital Issues Committee has now notified its approval of both
applications and the Nchanga company is proceeding forthwith in
the matter of its new issue of capital, whilst the necessary steps are
being taken by the Rhodesian company to issue to the Anglo American
Corp. 400,000 of the unissued shares of the company at a price of
X26S;. 9d. per share, equivalent to £535,000. •;
