(b) any other shares included in that class to which the offeror or, where two or more persons constitute the offeror, any of those persons, or any company belonging to the same group of companies as that person or any of those persons, was entitled before any bid under the take-over bid was despatched, is not less than ninety per cent of the issued shares included in that class.
