MARWYN VALUE INVESTORS LIMITED (THE "COMPANY")
DISTRIBUTION TO 2016 REALISATION SHAREHOLDERS
Further to the announcement made by the Company on 30 August 2023, the Board is pleased to provide details of the distribution of £1.046 million attributable to the Company's 2016 realisation shares (the "2016 Realisation Shareholders") (the "VAT Reclaim Realisation Share Proceeds").
The VAT Reclaim Realisation Share Proceeds will be distributed to the 2016 Realisation Shareholders in accordance with the terms of the Company's 2016 realisation share class. Of the total amount of £1,046,170 to be distributed, it is expected that approximately:
- £880,285 will be returned to the 2016 Realisation Shareholders (the "Distribution"); and
- £165,885 will be distributed by the Master Fund as the related incentive allocation.
The Distribution will be effected by way of a compulsory redemption undertaken pro rata to holdings of 2016 realisation shares on the register as at the close of business on the record date for the redemption, being 5 October 2023. The number of 2016 realisation shares to be redeemed will be determined by reference to the estimated net asset value per 2016 realisation share ("NAV") as at 8 September 2023.
The NAV as at 8 September 2023, along with the number of 2016 realisation shares that will be redeemed and the amount of the Distribution, will be announced by the Company on 22 September 2023. As fractions of 2016 realisation shares will not be redeemed, the number of 2016 realisation shares held by each 2016 Realisation Shareholder to be redeemed will be rounded down to the nearest whole number of 2016 realisation shares.
As at the date of this announcement, the Company has 933,070 2016 realisation shares in issue. All of the 2016 realisation shares redeemed on the redemption date will be cancelled. A further announcement will be released following the record date to confirm the new number of 2016 realisation shares in issue.
Further details on the changes to the ISIN of the 2016 realisation shares caused by the redemption will be announced on or before 5 October 2023. The payment of the redemption monies to eligible holders of 2016 realisation shares is expected to be effected through CREST (in the case of holders of depository interests relating to the 2016 realisation shares) or by cheque (in the case of 2016 realisation shares held in certificated form) by 20 October 2023.
