GM and Merger Result
27 September 2012
This announcement is made by Octopus Apollo VCT 2 plc ("the Company") in
connection with the merger of the Company with Octopus Apollo VCT 3 plc ("Apollo
3") to be completed by way of a scheme of reconstruction of the Company pursuant
to Section 110 of the Insolvency Act 1986 ("Scheme") and the transfer by the
Company of all of its assets and liabilities to Apollo 3 ("Scheme"), details of
which were contained in Apollo 3's prospectus ("the Prospectus") and the
Company's circular to shareholders ("the Circular") both dated 17 August 2012.
The board is pleased to announce that at the general meeting of the Company held
on 27 September 2012, 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
100.0% 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.octopusinvestments.com) 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 Apollo 3 in consideration for the issue of new ordinary
shares of 10p each in the capital of Apollo 3 ("Apollo 3 Shares"). The total
number of Apollo 3 Shares issued to the Company's shareholders was 8,238,067, at
a deemed issue price of 91.0374p per share (on a ratio of 1.042981).
The board is also pleased to confirm that the merger of Octopus Apollo VCT 1 plc
and Octopus Apollo VCT 4 plc with Apollo 3, as further set out in the Prospectus
and the Circular, has also taken effect today.
Application will shortly be made for all the Apollo 3 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 28 September 2012. CREST accounts
are also expected to be credited on 28 September 2012.
As part of the Scheme, the suspension of the listing of the Company's shares
took place at 7.30 a.m. today (27 September 2012) and the cancellation of the
Company's shares will take place from the commencement of trading on 28 October
