As at the close of business on 27 April 2020 the unaudited net asset value per ordinary share, calculated in accordance with the guidelines of the Association of Investment Companies, was 106.38p (cum income).

Tendering Shareholders - Tender Price
As announced earlier on 24 April 2020, the Tender Price per Ordinary Share tendered is 102.02 pence, being equal to the prevailing Net Asset Value per Ordinary Share as at the close of business on 22 April 2020 less costs applicable to exiting shares (determined and allocated to Shareholders participating in the Tender Offer in accordance with the terms of the Circular).
In accordance with the terms of the Tender Offer, 79,159,235 Ordinary shares will be purchased by Investec Bank plc on or around 28 April 2020 and all such shares will then be repurchased by the Company pursuant to the Repurchase Agreement and placed into treasury.
