Marwyn Value Investors Limited (the "Company")

Completion of Amended Accelerated Bookbuild

The Company wishes to announce that, further to the announcement made earlier today (the "ABB Announcement"), the amended investment agreement entered into between, amongst others, the Company and Marwyn Asset Management Limited (the "Investment Agreement"), has become unconditional in all respects and accordingly completion of the transactions described in the Launch Announcement as amended by the ABB Announcement will occur simultaneously upon settlement of the Amended Accelerated Bookbuild (as defined in the ABB Announcement).

Unless defined herein or the context otherwise requires, capitalised words and phrases used in this Announcement shall have the meanings given in the Launch Announcement.

Settlement of the Ordinary Shares to be purchased by MLTI LP and the Ordinary Shares acquired by the Chairman personally is currently expected to take place at 8.00 a.m. on 29 May 2020.

The Amended Accelerated Bookbuild was oversubscribed. Ordinary Shareholders that have successfully tendered Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Amended Accelerated Bookbuild have been provided with immediate liquidity in the Ordinary Shares and the resultant equity alignment of Carried Interest Recipients has been achieved by the completion of:

·    the Amended Accelerated Bookbuild, whereby MLTI LP agreed to acquire 7,750,000 Ordinary Shares, resulting in the Carried Interest Recipients (other than Robert Ware) significantly increasing their (indirect) holding of Ordinary Shares and, through that, increasing their equity alignment with Ordinary Shareholders; and

·    the acquisition by Robert Ware of 200,174 Ordinary Shares, increasing his direct or indirect holding of Ordinary Shares and, through that, increasing his equity alignment with Ordinary Shareholders.

The Amended Accelerated Bookbuild was conducted by Liberum Capital Limited ("Liberum"), the Company's broker, at a price of 80 pence per Ordinary Share, representing a discount of 47.4 per cent. to the estimated prevailing NAV per Ordinary Share on 26 May 2020, the latest practicable date prior to the release of the ABB Announcement, and a premium of 3.9 per cent. to the closing share price on 26 May 2020.

Following settlement of the Amended Accelerated Bookbuild and the Ordinary Shares acquired by the Chairman personally, the Carried Interest Recipients will, directly or indirectly, hold 9,366,011 Ordinary Shares (excluding any Ordinary Shares held by MVI LP), representing approximately 15.75 per cent. of the Company's Ordinary Shares.

Pursuant to the amended Investment Agreement, MLTI LP is required to use the remaining proceeds from the Net Cash Amount of approximately £1.6 million to purchase Ordinary Shares alongside MVI LP as part of the Company's buyback programme.

Following completion of the Amended Accelerated Bookbuild, the Future Carry Entitlement of Marwyn will be immediately reset according to the terms set out in the Launch Announcement.

The Ordinary Shares to be acquired by MLTI LP pursuant to the Amended Accelerated Bookbuild, any shares acquired by MLTI LP alongside MVI LP as part of the buy back programme and Robert Ware pursuant to his acquisition will be subject to a lock-up for the period up to the date of the next Realisation Share offer, subject to typical carve outs, including an offer for all of the issued share capital of the Company or on the death or incapacity of a Carried Interest Recipient.

In this Announcement, unless the context otherwise requires, references to Ordinary Shares shall be deemed to also include references to Ordinary Share Depository Interests.
