2Fixed assets Investments
Between 2009 and 2013 VPF Worldwide LLP held shares in a Dutch Real Estate Investment Trust, The Dutch Active Fund. The shares are not publicly traded. The LLP originally entered into a share purchase agreement which matched the amount of a long-term loan on disposal. This agreement ended in 2013 and the shares were sold, but as part of the sale deal the LLP retained an option, purchased for one Euro, that could result in a financial benefit should the Fund return to positive equity. At the most recent valuation (December 2014) the Fund's debt was greater than the value of it's property portfolio.
