Particulars of Cash Exit
In accordance with the circular to Shareholders dated 25 June 2024 (the "Circular") and the Articles, the Company announces the particulars of the compulsory redemption of Shares to be effected pursuant to the Cash Exit on 1 November 2024.
Unless otherwise defined, capitalised terms used in this announcement shall have the same meaning as set out in the Circular. Shareholders should refer to the Circular for full details of the Cash Exit, including the timetable for the redemption and distribution of redemption proceeds.
The redemption price payable to each Shareholder pursuant to the Cash Exit will be an amount equal to the net asset value (NAV) per Share of the relevant class of Shares as at the close of business of the Calculation Date, being 31 October 2024. The redemption monies will be payable in the currency of each relevant class of Shares and will be paid to Shareholders within 14 Business Days of the Cash Redemption Date (being 1 November 2024), or as soon as practicable thereafter.
On each Business Day, the Company announces on its website the estimated net asset value of its Euro Shares and Sterling Shares as at the close of business of the preceding Business Day. This information is available here: https://www.bgholdingltd.com/p/14/financial-announcements.
In the event that the net asset values per Share calculated as at the close of business of 31 October 2024 were equal to their most recent estimates, the resulting redemption price per Share payable to holders of Euro Shares (ISIN: GG00B1FQG453) and holders of Sterling Shares (ISIN: GG00B39VMM07) under the Cash Exit would be €28.4353 and £25.5630, respectively.
These figures are hypothetical, non-indicative of the actual redemption price and non-binding. They are provided for illustration purposes only and no reliance should be placed on them. The actual redemption price will be equal to the net asset value as at 31 October 2024, which may differ from the most recent estimated net asset values per Share provided above.
