NB GLOBAL MONTHLY INCOME FUND
LIMITED
(the "Company")
(LSE: NBMI, LEI:
549300P4FSBHZFALLG04)
Return of Capital by way of a Partial
Compulsory Redemption of Shares;
Revised schedule for 2024 Annual General
Meeting of the Company
The Company (Legal Entity Identifier:
549300P4FSBHZFALLG04) advises that it intends to distribute to
Shareholders an aggregate amount of approximately £4.5 million (the
"Distribution") by way of a
compulsory redemption of Shares in the capital of the Company (the
"Compulsory Redemption") on
21 May 2024 (the "Compulsory Redemption Date").
Pursuant to the Compulsory Redemption, the
Company will redeem approximately 48.71%
of existing Shares of Shareholders on the register of members as at
close of business on 21 May 2024 (the "Compulsory Redemption Record Date"). The
Compulsory Redemption will be effected at £0.7087 pence per Share
(the "Compulsory Redemption
Price"), which is equal to the Company's net asset value per
share on 2 May 2024. No fractions of Shares will be redeemed
and the number of Shares to be redeemed for each Shareholder will
be rounded down to the nearest whole number of Shares, as
appropriate. Any Shares which have traded on or before the
Compulsory Redemption Record Date, but have not settled, will be
included in the Compulsory Redemption.
Background
Following the passing of the Shareholder
resolutions tabled at the Company's Extraordinary General Meeting
held on 27 January 2023, the Company's investment objective is to
realise all existing assets in the Company's portfolio in an
orderly manner. The Company is pursuing its investment objective by
effecting an orderly realisation of its assets and making timely
returns of capital to Shareholders, by way of several capital
distributions. Any cash received by the Company as part of the
realisation process, but prior to its distribution to Shareholders,
will be held by the Company as cash on deposit and/or as cash
equivalents.
Terms of the
Redemption
It is estimated that all proceeds of the
Compulsory Redemption will be effected either through CREST (in the
case of Shares held in uncertificated form) or paid by cheque (in
the case of Shares held in certificated form) in pounds Sterling
within fourteen business days of the Compulsory Redemption Date, or
as soon as practicable thereafter (the "Compulsory Redemption Payment Date").
The amount to be applied in the partial redemption of Shares
comprises monies from the Company's existing cash
balances.
The existing Shares will be disabled in CREST
after close of business on the Compulsory Redemption Record Date
and the existing ISIN number GG00BNNJMX19 (the "Old ISIN") will be disabled.
The new ISIN number
GG00BQT33Y66 (the "New
ISIN"), in respect of the remaining Shares which have not
been redeemed, will be enabled and available for transactions on 22
May 2024. CREST will automatically transform any open
transactions as at the Compulsory Redemption Date into the New
ISIN.
Shareholders should note that the Board retains
absolute discretion as to the execution, extent and timing of any
returns of capital.
All Shares that are redeemed will be cancelled
with effect from the Compulsory Redemption Date. Accordingly, once
redeemed, Shares will be incapable of transfer.

Following this new redemption, the Company will
have made seven redemptions, amounting to £171.5 million and
equivalent to approximately 95.05% NAV as of 27 January 2023.
Taking this into account, the Board are now contemplating the best
way forward to reduce the Company's operating costs until the
completion of the liquidation of its portfolio and preparing to
seek Shareholders' approval to appoint a liquidator.
Revised
Schedule for 2024 Annual General Meeting of the
Company
The Company has decided not to hold its 2024
Annual General Meeting ("AGM") on 31 May 2024 but will instead
shortly issue a circular and notice of AGM to take place at a later
date, at which recommended proposals and related shareholder
resolutions will also be presented for the appointment of a
liquidator and related actions in connection with the voluntary
winding-up of the Company.
