ELECTIONS UNDER SCHEME
Further to the proposals for the reconstruction and winding up of the Company
which were announced on 28 June 2011, the results of elections under the Scheme
were as follows:
* elections for cash were made, or deemed to have been made, in respect of
14,577,757 Income Shares and 5,341,145 Capital Shares; and
* elections for new ordinary shares in Aberforth Geared Income Trust plc were
made, or deemed to have been made in respect of 9,922,243 Income Shares and
5,158,855 Capital Shares.
Reclassification of Shares
As a result of the elections referred to above (and subject to any scaling back
that may be required under the terms of the Scheme), 14,577,757 Income Shares
will be reclassified as Shares with A rights, 5,341,145 Capital Shares will be
reclassified as Shares with B rights, 9,922,243 Income Shares will be
reclassified as Shares with C rights and 5,158,855 Capital Shares will be

Application will be made to the UK Listing Authority and the London Stock
Exchange for the listing in respect of the Shares to be amended to reflect the
reclassification of the Shares as Reclassified Shares. It is expected that such
amendment will become effective and dealings in the Reclassified Shares will
commence with effect from 8.00 a.m. on 8 August 2011.
Suspension of Reclassified Shares
It is expected that the listing of the Reclassified Shares will be suspended at
7.30 a.m. on 9 August 2011.
General

special resolution to place the Company into members' voluntary liquidation
which will be proposed at the general meeting of the Company convened for 9
