<strong>Foresight</strong> 4 VCT<br />

Objective<br />

The objective of <strong>Foresight</strong> 4 VCT plc is to provide private investors with an attractive return from a portfolio of<br />

investments in fast-growing unquoted technology-based companies in the United Kingdom.<br />

It is the intention to maximise the tax-free income available to investors from a combination of dividends and interest<br />

received on investments and the distribution of capital gains arising from trade sales or flotations.<br />

VCT Tax Benefit for Shareholders beyond 6 April 2006<br />

To obtain VCT tax reliefs on subscriptions up to £200,000 per annum, a VCT investor must be a ‘qualifying’ individual<br />

over the age of 18 with UK taxable income. The tax reliefs for subscriptions from 6 April 2006 are:<br />

● Income tax relief of 30% on subscription into new shares, which is retained by shareholders if the shares are held<br />

for more than five years.<br />

● VCT dividends (including capital distributions of realised gains on investments) are not subject to income tax.<br />

● Capital gains on disposal of VCT shares are tax free, whenever the disposal occurs.<br />
