Notice of Compulsory Partial Redemption of Shares
29 January 2015
Notice of compulsory partial redemption of shares in Ashmore Global
Opportunities Limited (the "Company").
Further to the approval by the Company's shareholders of the winding down
proposals as described in the circular to shareholders on 20 February 2013 (the
"Circular") the Company today announces that it will return 106.62 pence and
108.37 US cents per GBP and USD share respectively on 5 February 2016 (the
"Redemption Date") by way of a compulsory partial redemption of shares (the
"Redemption") by reference to the 31 December 2015 NAV Calculation Date.
The Redemption will be effected pro rata to holdings of shares on the register
at the close of business on the Redemption Record Date, being 29 January 2016.
21.317 per cent. of the Company's issued share capital will be redeemed on the
Redemption Date (that is 21.317 Shares for every 100 GBP and USD shares held
respectively (the "Relevant Percentage")). Fractions of Shares will not be
redeemed and so the number of shares to be redeemed for each shareholder will
be rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares.
The amount to be applied to the partial redemption of shares comprises
the monies from the realisation of the Company's investments received up to
and including 31 December 2015 pursuant to the winding down of the Company.
As at today's date, the Company has 4,971,508 GBP ordinary shares and 7,739,867
USD ordinary shares. No shares are held in treasury. All of the ordinary
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 shares in issue for each share class.
The existing ISINs numbers GG00BYNJ9P93 and GG00BYNJ9F95 (the "Old ISINs") for
the Company's shares will expire on the Redemption Date (5 February 2016). The
new ISIN numbers GG00BDB5P108 (GBP shares) and GG00BDB5P215 (USD shares) (the
"New ISINs") in respect of the Company's shares (post the Redemption) will be
enabled from and including 5 February 2016. Up to the Redemption Date (but not
including the 5 February 2016), Shares will be traded under the Old ISIN. The
Redemption will be effected pro rata to holdings of shares on the register at
the close of business on the Redemption Record Date, being 29 January 2016.
Purchases of shares that were unsettled as at the close of business on the
Record Date, including trades arranged after the Record Date but before the
Redemption Date, will be transformed automatically by CREST and will settle
under the New ISINs with an accompanying delivery of cash though CREST in
respect of the redemption proceeds.
Payments of redemption monies are expected to be effected either through CREST
(in the case of shares held in un-certificated form) or by cheque (in the case
of shares held in certificated form) by 5 February 2016.
