NORTHERN 2 VCT PLC
SHAREHOLDER MEETING - proposed REDUCTION IN SHARE PREMIUM ACCOUNT
Northern 2 VCT PLC ("the Company") announces that a circular has today been
posted to shareholders giving notice of a shareholder general meeting to be held
on 23 November 2011 to consider a resolution to reduce the share premium account
of the Company by £25 million. Subject to shareholder approval of the
resolution, the Company intends to apply to the High Court to seek its
confirmation of the reduction in the share premium account, whereupon a
corresponding amount will be credited to a distributable reserve which will,
together with the Company's existing distributable reserves, be available to be
used by the Company inter alia to re-purchase Shares for cancellation (including
those proposed to be re-purchased in the tender offer announced on 23 September
2011) and to pay dividends to shareholders. The result of the proposal, if
implemented, will be to effect a transfer between two categories of reserves in
the Company's balance sheet and there will be no impact on the assets and
liabilities of the Company.
A copy of the circular has been submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and
will shortly be available for inspection at www.Hemscott.com/nsm.do and is also
available on the NVM Private Equity website at www.nvm.co.uk/n2vctgmnov2011
