RETURN OF CAPITAL TO SHAREHOLDERS
By 6 April 2009 all ordinary shareholders had held their shares for the three
years in order to secure the VCT income tax relief they received on investment.
In the circumstances the board concentrated on planning realisations of
investments in order to return funds to the shareholders as soon as possible
after 6 April 2009 with the result that the board has been able to pay two
significant dividends subsequent to the Company's year end, 31 March 2009,
namely GBP19,419,000 (67.9p per share) on 8 April 2009 and GBP2,174,000 (7.6p
per share) on 13 May 2009.
Having investigated the best route for the return of the remaining capital to
shareholders both the board and the investment manager are of the view that the
best way for shareholders to realise the remaining value after the payment of
the two interim dividends is through the orderly winding-up of the Company's
remaining investments under the Insolvency Act 1986. This will permit a low-cost
winding-up and maximise the amount returned to shareholders. The board of the
Company have therefore recommended that shareholders approve the Company being
placed into a members' voluntary winding-up and that Alan John Roberts and
Adrian John Denis Rabet of Begbies Traynor are appointed joint liquidators for
the purpose of such winding-up.
A circular will be sent to shareholders setting out full details of the proposed
winding-up and the actions that they need to take.
The winding-up is conditional on the approval of resolutions to be proposed to
shareholders of the Company at the annual general meeting to be held on 15
September 2009.
The Company will apply for cancellation of its listing on the London Stock
Exchange following the placing of the Company into a members' voluntary
winding-up which is anticipated to be on 16 September 2009.
