Proposed Scheme of
Reconstruction – update
Results of Scheme
elections
Further to the Company’s announcement of 30 June detailing the
terms of a proposed scheme of reconstruction (the “Scheme”)
pursuant to which the Company would be placed into voluntary
liquidation and Shareholders would have the option to receive cash
and/or shares in BH Macro Limited in exchange for their
shareholdings, the Board of BH Global Limited announces that final
elections under the Scheme are (or, in accordance with the terms
and conditions of the Scheme, are deemed to be) as follows:
Sterling Shares
Elections for the Cash Option – 2,937,143 Sterling Shares
Elections for the BH Macro Shares Option – 17,517,300 Sterling
Shares
US Dollar Shares
Elections for the Cash Option – 1,202,789
US Dollar Shares
Elections for the BH Macro Shares Option – 1,441,690 US Dollar Shares
Implementation of the Scheme remains conditional upon, inter
alia, the passing of all the Resolutions at (a) the Sterling
Shareholders’ Class Meeting; (b) the US Dollar Shareholders’ Class
Meeting; and (c) the Extraordinary General Meeting and all
conditions to such Resolutions (excluding any condition relating to
the passing of any other Resolution) being fulfilled. Each of these
Meetings is due to be held on 19 July 2021.
In the event that the Scheme does proceed, the number of BH
Macro Shares to which the relevant electing Shareholders will be
entitled will be calculated by reference to the NAV of the
Company’s Shares and of BH Macro’s Shares as at the Calculation
Date (being 31 July 2021). A further
announcement will (if appropriate) be made in due course detailing
entitlements for those Shareholders who have elected, or are deemed
to have elected, for the BH Macro Shares Option.

per share update will be calculated as at 19 July (the proposed

Defined terms in this announcement have the meanings given to
