The 'O' and 'S' classes of the Company were merged on 29 March 2010.

The Matrix VCT Linked Offer
The second Matrix VCT Linked Offer was launched on 20 January 2012. The Offer for a total of £21 million is to be raised jointly by the VCT together with Matrix Income & Growth VCT plc and Matrix Income & Growth 4 VCT plc. The total amount of each subscription received will be divided equally between the three VCTs. I&G VCT is therefore seeking to raise £7 million.
The Offer will close on 5 April 2012 in respect of the current tax year and on 30 June 2012 in respect of the 2012/13 tax year though it may be extended beyond this date at the Directors’ discretion.
The 2010/11 raised £16.2 million gross across the three VCTs, £5.4 million of which was raised for I&G VCT.

Boiler Room Scams - Shareholder warning
Boiler rooms are high pressure sales firms, often based overseas, that target investors illegally offering them non-tradable, overpriced or even non-existent shares. Alternatively, if you already own shares in a company, you may receive a call from someone offering to buy your shares, usually at a higher price than their market value. Please click here to read the FSA's advice on boiler room scams.
