Admission of Realisation Shares to the closed-ended investment funds listing category of the Official List of the FCA and to trading on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange
Publication of Prospectus
Further to the announcement made by Partners Group Private Equity Limited ("PGPE" or the "Company") this morning, the Company has today also published a Prospectus (the "Prospectus") that relates to the admission of Realisation Shares in the capital of the Company to the closed-ended investment funds listing category of the Official List of the FCA and to trading on the London Stock Exchange's Main Market ("Admission") in connection with the proposal for the reorganisation of the Company's share capital by redesignating up to 40 per cent. of the Company's ordinary shares of EUR 0.001 each in the capital of the Company (the "Ordinary Shares") as ordinary shares of EUR 0.001 in the capital of the Company designated as "Realisation Shares" (the "Realisation Shares") in accordance with Elections made pursuant to the proposal for the reorganisation (altogether the "Reorganisation Proposal").
The purpose of the Prospectus is to provide information to investors in connection with Admission regarding the Company and the Realisation Shares. The Prospectus does not constitute or form part of an offer or invitation to the public to subscribe for or purchase Realisation Shares or any other securities in connection with the Admission.
A copy of the Prospectus will be submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at the registered office of the Company at Tudor House, Le Bordage, St Peter Port, Guernsey GY1 6BD and on the Company's website at www.partnersgroupprivateequitylimited.com.
The Reorganisation Proposal will only proceed if valid Elections for Realisation Shares are received in respect of 40 per cent. or less of the Ordinary Shares in issue (excluding any Ordinary Shares held in treasury) as at the Record Date.
If this threshold is exceeded, the Reorganisation Proposal will not proceed and the Board will, subject to Shareholder approval, commence an orderly realisation of the Company's entire investment portfolio (the "Managed Wind-down Alternative").
If the proposed Managed Wind-Down Alternative proceeds, the entire Company will be managed in accordance with a realisation strategy that is, in all material respects, the same as that which would apply to the Realisation Share Class under the Reorganisation Proposal. The Company will retain a single class of Ordinary Shares and all Shareholders will participate pro rata in the entirety of the Company's portfolio and in the net proceeds generated from its orderly realisation.
Key dates for the Reorganisation Proposal
1.00 pm on 30 September 2026: Latest time and date for receipt of Forms of Election and TTE Instructions
1 October 2026: Results of Elections for Realisation Shares published
