Update - Notice of compulsory partial redemption of shares
As a result of the Company receiving further proceeds from the
redemption of its underlying investments, the Directors are pleased
to announce that the Company is now in a position to return more
cash to shareholders than stated in the announcement dated 03 May
2011.
Further to the approval by the Company's shareholders of the
managed wind-down proposals as described in the circular to
shareholders dated 4 February 2011, the Company has resolved to
return GBP31,000,000 by way of a compulsory partial redemption of
shares (the "Redemption") at a price of 88.6 pence (the Company's
NAV per share as at 31 March2011). Payments of redemption monies
are expected to be effected either through CREST (in the case of
shares held in uncertificated form) or by cheque (in the case of
shares held in certificated form) by 18 May 2011. Certificated
shareholders must send all of their share certificates to the
Company's Registrar in order to receive their redemption
monies.
The Redemption will be effected pro rata to holdings of shares
on the register at the close of business on 11 May 2011 (the
"Redemption Date"). Approximately 52.92 per cent. of the Company's
issued share capital (that is 52.92 shares for every 100 held (the
"Redemption Ratio")) will be redeemed on the Redemption Date.
Fractions of shares produced by the Redemption Ratio will not be
redeemed and so the number of shares to be redeemed for each
shareholder will be rounded down to the nearest whole number of
shares. For information the compulsory redemption is equivalent to
approximately 46.88 pence per share.
The amount to be applied to the partial redemption of shares
comprises the monies from the realisation of the Company's
investments received up to and including 10 May 2011 pursuant to
the managed wind-down of the Company, less the costs and expenses
of this partial redemption and cash being retained for the
Company's working capital requirements. The costs and expenses of
this partial redemption are estimated not to exceed GBP5,000.
The Company currently has 66,133,577 shares in issue. All of the
shares redeemed on the Redemption Date will be cancelled.
The shares will be disabled in CREST on the Redemption Date and
the existing ISIN number GG00B1QH6J27 (the "Old ISIN") will expire.
The new ISIN number GG00B3ZPG020 (the "New ISIN") in respect of the
remaining shares which have not been redeemed will be enabled and
available for transactions from and including 12 May 2011. Up to
and including the Redemption Date, shares will be traded under the
Old ISIN and as such, a purchaser of such shares may have a market
claim for a proportion of the redemption proceeds following the
activation of the New ISIN. CREST will automatically transfer any
open transactions as at the Redemption Date to the New ISIN.
Following this first distribution of cash to shareholders pursuant
to the managed wind-down, the management fee charged to the Company
by FRM Investment Management Limited will be based on invested
assets only (i.e. excluding cash). In addition, no performance fee
will be payable.
