The Conversion Ratios, which will be effective on 1 May 2020, are based on the relative net asset values of the Company’s Share classes as at close of business on 23 April 2020.
Individual Shareholders’ entitlements on conversion on 1 May 2020 will be rounded down to the nearest whole number of Shares. Fractional entitlements will be aggregated and sold in the market. The Shares arising or allotted pursuant to the conversion will rank pari passu with the existing Shares of the relevant class and, for the avoidance of doubt, will not rank for the dividends declared on 15 April 2020 in respect of the UK Equity, Global Equity Income and Managed Liquidity Shares.
The net changes to the number of shares outstanding following the conversion and allotments are as follows:
| +7,339 | UK Equity Shares |
| -10,434 | Global Equity Income Shares |
| +2,304 | Balanced Risk Allocation Shares |
| +4,218 | Managed Liquidity Shares |
| +2,531 | Deferred Shares |
Following the conversion, the total number of listed Shares in issue (excluding shares held in treasury) will be:
| 32,210,941 | UK Equity Shares |
| 29,323,800 | Global Equity Income Shares |
| 5,236,886 | Balanced Risk Allocation Shares |
| 2,497,032 | Managed Liquidity Shares |
The Company has applied for the following numbers of Shares arising or allotted pursuant to conversion to be admitted to the Official List and to trading on the London Stock Exchange:
| 21,515 | UK Equity Shares |
| 10,976 | Global Equity Income Shares |

Dealings in such shares are expected to commence at 8.00 a.m. on 5 May 2020. It is expected that Certificates in respect of the Resulting Shares will be posted by 15 May 2020.
