Shares |
NAV |
Ordinary Shares ISIN: GB00B13YVW48 |
GBP 2.0857 |
This NAV has been calculated on the assets and liabilities within the Company as at the VP, having regard to (i) the cash and near cash items held, (ii) the net asset value of shares in Highbridge Capital Corporation ("HCC") (as provided by the Administrator of HCC) and (iii) the estimated net asset value of estimated cash flows from AllBlue Limited ("AB") and AllBlue Leveraged Feeder Limited ("ABL") (as provided by BlueCrest Capital Management Limited). The exact timings and amounts of these cashflows are not known.
The administrator of AB and ABL has informed the Company that it will now provide AB and ABL net asset values on a monthly rather than weekly basis. Accordingly, the NAV for a Share as presented above has been prepared on the basis of a monthly confirmed NAV for the Company's investment in Highbridge Capital Corporation as at the end of November 2016 and a monthly confirmed NAV for AB and ABL as at the end of November 2016.
At the request of shareholders and the Board, the Administrator has prepared the below table providing further information about the approximate asset exposure of both continuing shareholders ("Continuing Shareholders") in the Company, the asset exposure for those former shareholders who participated in the cash exit opportunity in February 2016 and remain creditors of the Company ("Cash Exit Creditors") and the asset exposure for those former shareholders who participated in the tender offer in October 2016 and remain creditors of the Company ("Tender Creditors").
