Completion of Mandatory Redemption
PDMR Dealings
The Board of Directors of Africa Opportunity Fund Limited ("AOF" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the partial mandatory redemption of the Company's Ordinary Shares announced on 10 March 2020 has been completed with the redemption of 30,278,230 Ordinary Shares ("Mandatory Redemption").
On 16 March 2020 , AOF redeemed 30,278,230 Ordinary Shares, on a pro rata basis, at the prevailing NAV per Ordinary Share of $ 0.611 as at 29 February 2020 . Such shares were cancelled automatically following their redemption.
Fractions of shares produced by the applicable redemption ratios have not been redeemed and so the number of shares redeemed in respect of each shareholder has been rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares.
Payments of redemption proceeds are expected to be effected either through Euroclear or Clearstream (in the case of shares held in uncertificated form) or by cheque (in the case of shares held in certificated form) on or around 25 March 2 020 . Any share certificates for the balance of holdings of shares will also be despatched to shareholders on or around 25 March 2020.
Following the Mandatory Redemption, the Company has 44,571,376 Ordinary Shares in issue.
The Ordinary Shares were disabled on the record date ( 16 March 2020 ) and the ISIN number KYG012921048 (the "Old ISIN") has expired. The new ISIN number KYG012921204 (the "New ISIN") in respect of the remaining 44,571,376 Ordinary Shares which have not been redeemed will be enabled and will be available for transactions on 17 March 2020 .
