The Business, Engineering, Science & Technology Discoveries Fund Inc. (the
"Fund") (CSE:VC) announced that the transaction involving the Fund and Tier One
Capital Limited Partnership (the "Limited Partnership"), which was approved by
the shareholders of the Fund at a special meeting on March 28, 2014, is
effective today, July 11, 2014 (the "Effective Date"). 


The Limited Partnership has acquired substantially all of the assets of the Fund
in exchange for units of the Limited Partnership (the "Units"). The outstanding
Class A Shares and Class L Shares of the Fund have been automatically redeemed
for Units. 


Each Class A Shareholder and Class L Shareholder will receive an equivalent
value of Units in payment for the redemption price of the Class A Shares and
Class L Shares held by that shareholder on the Effective Date. The number of
Units that a Class A Shareholder or Class L Shareholder is entitled to receive
has been calculated as the number of Class A Shares or Class L Shares held
multiplied by the net asset value of the applicable series of shares on the
valuation date immediately prior to the Effective Date divided by the deemed
issue price per Unit of $14.00. Fractional Units will not be issued, and the
number of Units issued to a former shareholder of the Fund will be rounded down
to the next whole number of Units. The net asset value per share for each series
of outstanding Class A Shares and Class L Shares used in the exchange ratio
calculation were as follows: (i) $9.3384 Class A Shares, Series I; (ii) $9.2352
Class A Shares, Series II; (iii) $9.3009 Class A Shares, Series III; (iv)
$9.4066 Class A Shares, Series IV; and (v) $9.4804 Class L Shares, Series I.


The Units of the Limited Partnership are listed on the Canadian Securities
