Investment Adviser Shares
The Company further announces that in accordance with the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement between the Company and Sequoia Investment Management Company Limited (the "Investment Adviser"), the Board has considered the issue of shares to the Investment Adviser for the relevant portion of the fees payable to the Investment Adviser for the three-month period ended 31 December 2023. As the closing price for the Company's ordinary shares on 11 January 2024 (being the trading day following the payment of the relevant portion of the quarterly fee due to the Investment Adviser) was at a discount to the last published NAV per share, the relevant portion of the fees payable to the Investment Adviser for the three month period ended 31 December 2023 which would otherwise have been issued as shares, will instead be paid by the Company to the Investment Adviser in cash in the amount of £246,815. The Investment Adviser had committed to issue an irrevocable instruction upon receipt of the funds to utilise such cash to acquire ordinary shares in the capital of the Company in the market without delay and such shares will be subject to a three-year rolling lock-up in accordance with the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement. The Investment Adviser owns 5,708,663 shares, excluding holdings by individuals at the Investment Adviser.
