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 15 May 2023 has been completed with the redemption of 8,745,683 Ordinary Shares ("Mandatory Redemption").
On 23 May 2023, AOF redeemed 8,745,683 Ordinary Shares, on a pro rata basis, at the prevailing NAV per Ordinary Share of $ 0.869 as at 30 April 2023. 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 31 May 2023 . Any share certificates for the balance of holdings of shares will also be despatched to shareholders on or around 31 May 2023.
Following the Mandatory Redemption, the Company has 11,468,907 Ordinary Shares in issue. This figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
The Ordinary Shares were disabled on the record date ( 23 May 2023) and the ISIN number KYG012922038 (the "Old ISIN") has expired. The new ISIN number KYG012921535 (the "New ISIN") in respect of the remaining 11,468,907 Ordinary Shares which have not been redeemed will be enabled and will be available for transactions on 24 May 2023.
DIRECTOR'S INTERESTS
As of 23 May 2023 , Robert Knapp and Myma Belo-Osagie, Directors of the Company, owned 3,263,346 and 27,008 Ordinary Shares, respectively. As a result of the Mandatory Redemption described above, Robert Knapp and Myma Belo-Osagie now hold 1,851,485 and 15,324 Ordinary Shares, respectively.
