General Meeting and Merger Result
18 December 2015
The board of Foresight 2 VCT plc ("the Company") is pleased to announce
the results of the general meeting of the Company held today in
connection with the merger of the Company with Foresight VCT plc ("F1")
by way of a scheme of reconstruction of the Company pursuant to Section
110 of the Insolvency Act 1986 whereby the Company will be placed in
members' voluntary liquidation and all of its assets and liabilities
transferred by the appointed liquidators to F1 ("Scheme"), details of
which were contained in the Company's circular to shareholders
("Circular") dated 13 November 2015.
At the general meeting of the Company, the resolution to approve the
Company being placed in liquidation, appoint the liquidators and cancel
the listing of the Company's shares, as set out in the Circular, was
duly passed on a show of hands and with 96.14% of proxy votes received
being in favour (or at the chairman's discretion).
A copy of the resolution passed at the above meeting will shortly be
available for inspection on both the Company's website
(www.foresightgroup.eu) as well as at the National Storage Mechanism
(www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/NSM).
Accordingly, by way of implementation of the Scheme, the Company has
been placed into members' voluntary liquidation and the assets and
liabilities of the Company transferred to F1 in consideration for the
issue of new F1 ordinary shares of 1p each ("F1 Ordinary Shares"), new
F1 planned exit shares of 1p each ("F1 Planned Exit Shares") and new F1
infrastructure shares of 1p each ("F1 Infrastructure Shares") in each
case in the capital of F1 (together the "F1 Shares") . The total number
of F1 Ordinary Shares issued to the Company's shareholders was
28,590,057, at a deemed issue price of 88.0p per ordinary share (on a
ratio of 0.6244 F1 Ordinary Shares for each ordinary share in the
Company). The total number of F1 Infrastructure Shares issued to the
Company's shareholders was 15,975,510, at a deemed issue price of 92.3p
per infrastructure share (on a ratio of 0.9644 F1 Infrastructure Shares
for each infrastructure share in the Company). The total number of F1
Planned Exit Shares issued to the Company's shareholders was 5,535,509,
at a deemed issue price of 39.6p per planned exit share (on a ratio of
0.9095 F1 Planned Exit Shares for each planned exit share in the
Company).
Application will shortly be made for all the F1 Shares issued pursuant
to the Scheme to be admitted to the Official List and to trading on the
main market of the London Stock Exchange. It is expected that admission
will become effective and that trading will commence on 21 December
2015. CREST accounts are also expected to be credited on 22 December
2015.
As part of the Scheme, the suspension of the listing of the Company's
shares took place at 7.30 a.m. today (18 December 2015) and the
cancellation of the Company's shares will take place from the
commencement of trading on 22 January 2016.
As mentioned in the Circular, David Quysner has retired from the board
of Foresight 2 VCT plc with immediate effect.
