JOINT ANNOUNCEMENT
CORE VCT I PLC ("VCT I"), CORE VCT II PLC ("VCT II") AND CORE VCT III PLC ("VCT
III") (together the "VCTs")
Possible Merger pursuant to s.110 schemes of reconstruction under the Insolvency
Act 1986 as a transfer of each of VCT I and VCT II's assets and liabilities to
VCT III
Following the completion of the initial investment programme for each of the
VCTs, the boards of the VCTs (which are all managed by Core Capital LLP), are
pleased to announce that they have reached agreement in principle on terms to
merge the VCTs, subject to approval by shareholders of the VCTs. This will
achieve administrative cost savings and should permit the declaration of higher
dividends in future for the benefit of all shareholders.
The intention is that this proposed merger will be completed pursuant to s.110
schemes of reconstruction under the Insolvency Act 1986 by transferring the
assets and liabilities of VCT I and VCT II to VCT III in consideration for the
issue to the shareholders of VCT I and VCT II of new shares in VCT III. The
proposed merger is intended to be completed on a relative adjusted net asset
value basis. A merger on this basis will be outside the provisions of The City
Code on Takeover and Mergers.
Formal proposals will be forwarded to shareholders of the VCTs in due course.
