Publication of a Circular

 

Ingenious Entertainment VCT 1 plc and Ingenious Entertainment VCT 2 plc (the "Companies") were launched in November 2007 through an offer for subscription for ordinary shares of 1p each in each of the Companies. In 2009 the Companies made an offer for subscription for D ordinary shares of 1p each in each of the Companies (the "D Shares") and in 2010 they made further offers for subscription for E ordinary shares of 1p each and F ordinary shares of 1p each in each of the Companies (the "E Shares" and the "F Shares" respectively). It was always anticipated that the Companies would seek to return funds to the subscribers for D Shares, E Shares and F Shares as soon as possible after the respective five year holding period for each share class stipulated in VCT regulations had ended. The fifth anniversary of the close of all of those offers has now passed and each of the Companies' boards have agreed formal proposals to return the residual capital paid up on the D Shares, the E Shares and the F Shares to the holders of those shares and to cancel and extinguish those shares by means of a Court approved reduction of capital.

 

The Companies have issued a joint circular (the "Circular") setting out these proposals in full and giving notice of general and class meetings (the "Meetings") at which the resolutions to enable these proposals are to be considered by their respective shareholders. The Meetings are to be held on 8December 2016.

 

If all the resolutions are passed at the Meetings, Court hearings will then take place, following which the cancellation and extinguishment of the D Shares, the E Shares and the F Shares will be effected. Following the cancellation and extinguishment of those shares, they will be subsequently removed from the Official List of the UKLA and from trading on the London Stock Exchange, which is expected to take place on or around 23 January 2017.
