Cambium Global Timberland Limited Tender offer

2 January 2015
The Company has announced today a tender offer to be made by Panmure Gordon to Shareholders of the Company to purchase up to 20 million Shares, or 19.58 per cent. of the Company's issued share capital, at a price of 25 pence per Share.
The Tender Offer will be subject to Shareholders' approval and to this end a circular is today being posted to Shareholders convening a general meeting of the Company for 27 January 2015 ("Circular"). The terms and conditions to which the Tender Offer is subject are set out in full in the Circular.
A copy of the Circular will shortly be available from the Company's website www.cambium.je/ or from the National
Storage Mechanism www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/NSM

The Tender Offer

The key points of the Tender Offer are as follows:

the Tender Offer will be restricted to 20 million ordinary shares of the Company;

each Shareholder (other than Restricted Shareholders) will be able to tender up to 19.58 per cent. of his or her holding (rounded down to the nearest whole number of Shares), with such tenders being satisfied in full;

each Shareholder will also be able to tender Shares in excess of his or her basic entitlement, but such excess tenders will only be satisfied on a pro rata basis to the extent that other Shareholders tender less than (or none of) their basic entitlement;

the Tender Price per Share will be 25 pence per share representing a premium of 16.3 per cent. to the mid- market price of the Company's shares at the close of business on 31 December 2014; and

the costs of the Tender Offer will be borne by the Company.

The Tender Offer will be implemented by means of on-market purchases by Panmure Gordon, which will, as principal, purchase the Shares tendered (subject to the overall limit of the Tender Offer) at the Tender Price and, on the completion of those purchases and in accordance with the Repurchase Agreement, sell them on to the Company at the Tender Price by way of an on-market transaction. The Shares that the Company purchases from Panmure Gordon will be cancelled and the number of Shares in issue carrying voting rights reduced accordingly. The Company will fund the purchase from its existing cash resources.
The Tender Offer is conditional inter alia on the enabling resolution to be put forward at the General Meeting being duly passed.
