The Company has performed strongly since launch, achieving its target dividend, but importantly capturing significant additional capital gains. The Company has not issued any new shares over the last year, as in the investment manager's view the Company has been optimally positioned, without the need to make further investments. However, as a result of the recent announcement by the ECB concerning the launch of the ABS Purchase Programme, the investment manager believes that spreads in European ABS will compress further, increasing the prospect of further capital gains. In light of this the Company's investment manager now sees a number of relatively small but attractive opportunities that are expected to enhance the portfolio's total returns. The Board and the Company's investment manager believe that the Issue is in Shareholders' interests as it will further enlarge the Company and diversify its portfolio. It is expected the proceeds of the Issue can be invested on a basis consistent with the Company's dividend target. Application will be madefor the admission of the New Shares to the premium listing segment of the Official List of the UK Listing authority (the "Official List") and to trading on the London Stock Exchange plc's main market for listed securities (the "London Stock Exchange"). The Issue is expected to close at 12 noon (London time) on Wednesday, 15 October 2014, but may close earlier or later at the absolute discretion of the Company. The Issue price per New Share will be announced on Tuesday 14October 2014 and will be approximately a 5% premium to the NAV at 10 October 2014, excluding an amount equal to the dividend per share for the quarter to 30 September 2014 to which the New Shares will not be entitled. Qualified investors are invited to apply for New Shares by contacting Numis on the contact details below. The decision to allot New Shares to any qualified investor shall be at the absolute discretion of the Company and Numis. The closing share price on Tuesday 7 October 2014, represented a 6.4% premium to the NAV as at 3 October 2014. The Company will make a further announcement in due course.
