PORTFOLIO UPDATE - SOUTH CERNEY OUTDOOR LIMITED
Capital for Colleagues, the investment vehicle focused on opportunities in the
Employee Owned Business ('EOB') sector, is pleased to announce an update in
respect of its investee company, South Cerney Outdoor Limited ('SCO').
Based near Cirencester in Gloucestershire, SCO creates outdoor experiences that
inspire personal challenge, fun, growth and adventure for the whole community,
regardless of age or ability. Activities are available on an individual or
group basis and include water sports and land-based activities at SCO's 53-acre
leasehold site, most of which is covered by a lake.
Capital for Colleagues has agreed to convert £250,000 of its £412,000 of
outstanding loans to SCO into 250,000 A ordinary shares in SCO. The A ordinary
shares, which give C4C preferential rights in respect of dividends and the
return of capital, will be bought back (subject to certain conditions being
met) by SCO in 5 annual tranches of £50,000 each.
The Company is also transferring ordinary shares representing 4% of SCO's
issued share capital to the SCO Employee Share Ownership Trust and granting the
Trust a call option over additional ordinary shares representing a further 4%
of SCO's issued share capital, which can be exercised subject to the
satisfaction of certain conditions.
Following these transactions, and prior to the exercise of any call options,
C4C is interested in 31% of SCO's issued ordinary share capital.
