RNS Number : 4344F KSK Emerging India Energy Fund Ltd 09 October 2008 Not for release, publication or distribution in, or into, the United States, Canada, Australia, Japan, Israel, the Republic of Ireland or the Republic of South Africa. FINAL 9 October 2008 KSK Emerging India Energy Fund Limited ("KEF" or "the Company") Statement regarding Press Comment KSK Emerging India Energy Fund Limited (AIM:KEF), an investment company focused on the Indian power and energy sector, notes recent press comment in respect of KEF's possible investment in Athena Infraprojects Private Limited ('AIPL'), an India power developer, and can confirm that the Company's Investment Manager and the board of AIPL are at an advanced stage of negotiation which may lead to an investment by the Company of up to INR 2,100 million (approximately £25.1 million) for a minority equity interest in AIPL. The Company stated in its admission document dated 3 June 2008 that a 25 per cent. shareholding in Athena Projects Private Limited ('APPL') that was acquired by a subsidiary of KSK Power Ventur plc for INR 1,050 million (approximately US$25 million) would be offered for acquisition by KEF at cost as soon as practicable following admission. The Board can confirm that it still intends to acquire this interest in accordance with the terms of the Relationship Agreement (further details of which can be found on page 57 of the Company's admission document). In addition, the Company's Investment Manager is in negotiations to exchange this APPL interest for shares in AIPL and to invest a further INR 1,050 million (approximately £12.5 million) into AIPL securities. AIPL is the holding company for the Athena group of companies and currently holds a majority interest in APPL. Should the Board approve the aggregate investment of INR 2,100 million (approximately £25.1 million) into AIPL, that investment would breach the Company's investment policy set out in its admission document which states that no single investment can exceed more than 20 per cent. of the net asset value of the Company at the time the investment is made (the "Investment Restriction"). Accordingly, if the Board were to approve the aggregate investment into AIPL, that part of the investment that breaches the Investment Restriction will be subject to Shareholder approval. Further announcements will be made in due course as appropriate. - Ends - For further information: KSK Emerging India Energy Fund Limited Tanmay Das, Non-Executive Director Tel: +44 (0) 20 7398 7715 www.ksk-eiefund.com Liberum Capital Limited (Financial Adviser and Broker) Steve Pearce Tel: +44 (0) 20 3100 2224 steve.pearce@liberumcapital.com www.liberumcapital.com Grant Thornton UK LLP (Nominated Adviser) Philip Secrett Tel: +44 (0) 20 7728 2578 philip.j.secrett@gtuk.com www.gtuk.com Media enquiries: Abchurch Communications Limited Henry Harrison-Topham / Justin Heath Tel: +44 (0) 20 7398 7715 justin.heath@abchurch-group.com www.abchurch-group.com Notes to editors KSK Emerging India Energy Fund Limited is a Guernsey registered closed ended investment company established to make investments in companies engaged in the Indian power and energy sector.
