Signing of Supplemental Trust Deed dated 18th July 2019.
The Guinness Partnership Limited (the Issuer) issued £250 million 4.00% secured bonds due 2044 on 24th October 2014 (the Issue Date); ISIN: XS1124319002. The Company purchased £100 million in nominal amount of this bond issue on the Issue Date, for potential future sale (the "Retained Bonds"). The trust deed entered into at the time of issue required that the Retained Bonds be cancelled if not sold by the Issuer within three years of the Issue Date (i.e. by 24th October 2017). On the 6th October 2017, the Issuer entered into a Supplemental Trust Deed with the Trustee extending the date on which it must cancel any Retained Bonds to five years after the Issue Date. The Issuer has entered into a Second Supplemental Trust Deed with the Trustee which extends the date on which it must cancel any Retained Bonds to seven years after the Issue Date. The Issuer will therefore continue to hold the Retained Bonds for potential sale for a further period of up to two years.
No other terms of the trust deed have been amended by the Second Supplemental Trust Deed.
