The Vietnamese regulatory authorities have approved the contribution of VNI's listed securities portfolio to Forum One-VCG Partners Vietnam Fund. This contribution along with a cash subscription for VVF Shares was completed on 14 July 2015 and as a result, VNI currently holds 10,242,350.55 VVF Shares.
The Board has today agreed a timetable in relation to the final stages of the restructuring proposals. The expected timetable is outlined below:
Record Date | 21 July 2015 |
Effective Date | 21 July 2015 |
Ordinary Shares redesignated as Private Equity Shares | 21 July 2015 |
Publication of AIM admission document relating to the Listed Portfolio Shares

Listed Portfolio Shares issued and admitted to trading on AIM | 27 July 2015 |
A circular setting out the detailed terms and conditions of the first of two tender offers proposed to be undertaken by the Company will be distributed to VNI shareholders on the same day as the admission of the Listed Portfolio Shares to trading on AIM.
The dates set out in the above timetable are subject to change at the discretion of the Company, in which event details of the revised dates will be notified to shareholders.
Defined terms used in this announcement have the same meaning as ascribed to them in the circular sent to shareholders dated 20 May 2015.
