                        Eclectic Investment Company plc 
                          ("Eclectic" or the "Company") 
 
 
   Recommended Proposals for the Reconstruction and Winding Up of the Company 
 
 
Introduction 
 
The Board of Eclectic has been concerned for some time that the capital base of 
the Company is too small and that it would be desirable to raise further capital 
in order to increase the Company's net assets. However, in light of current 
market conditions and the relatively wide discount to net asset value at which 
the price of the Company's Shares continue to trade, it has not been possible 
for the Company to raise capital. 
 
Accordingly, the Board has reviewed the options available to the Company and the 
Independent Directors have concluded that it is in Shareholders' best interests 
to propose a reconstruction of the Company under which Shareholders will be 
offered the choice (i) of rolling over into an investment in Utilico Limited, a 
larger investment company managed by ICM Limited (an associated company of the 
Company's investment manager) which will adopt a similar investment objective 
and policy to that of the Company; or (ii) to elect for a cash exit. 
 
 
Overview of the Proposals 
 
Under the Proposals, which are recommended by the respective Boards of both 
companies, the Company will enter into a scheme of reconstruction whereby the 
Company will be put into members' voluntary liquidation and its investment 
portfolio will be transferred to Utilico and the Company's Shareholders may 
elect for one, or a combination, of the following options: 
 
* Shares in Utilico - The number of Utilico Shares to which a Shareholder 
electing for the Utilico Option will be entitled under the Scheme will be 
calculated by multiplying the number of Shares for which such Election has been 
made by the FAV per Share and dividing the resultant sum by the Utilico FAV per 
Share.  The FAV per Share and the Utilico FAV per Share will be calculated as at 
the Calculation Date; 
 
* Cash - Shareholders may choose to receive a cash distribution equal to 95 per 
cent. of the FAV per Share. 
 
Shareholders who do not make a valid Election under the Scheme will be deemed to 
have elected for the Cash Option in respect of their entire holding. 
 
On the assumptions and as set out in the section headed "Illustrative financial 
effects of the Proposals" below, a Shareholder holding 1,000 Shares: 
 
* who elects or is deemed to elect for the Cash Option, would receive 
GBP1,022.78 in cash (an increase over the mid-market value of their holding at 
the close of business on 30 November 2010 of 19.6 per cent.); 
 
* who elects for the Utilico Option, would receive 526 Utilico Shares with, 
after completion of the Proposals, a proforma net asset value attributable to 
those shares of GBP1,076.09 (compared to the net asset value of GBP1,095.10 
attributable to the 1,000 Shares held) and a market value of GBP798.21. 
 
The Proposals are conditional, inter alia, on Shareholders approving special 
resolutions to be proposed at General Meetings of the Company to be held on 7 
January 2011 and 17 January 2011, and the passing of resolutions by the 
shareholders of Utilico and shareholders of Utilico Finance Limited, at separate 
class meetings of those shareholders, to be held on 7 January 2011.  A circular 
convening the General Meetings (the "Circular"), together with a prospectus 
published by Utilico, will be despatched to Shareholders today.  The Circular 
provides details of the Proposals and includes, inter alia, a letter from the 
Chairman to Shareholders explaining the expected benefits of the Proposals and 
further details on (i) Utilico Limited and the Utilico Group; and (ii) the 
Scheme. 
 
Certain of the Company's major Shareholders have irrevocably undertaken to vote 
in favour of the resolutions to be proposed at the General Meetings to approve 
the Proposals and to elect to receive Utilico Shares under the Scheme in respect 
of their entire holdings of Shares, which in aggregate represent approximately 
71.83 per cent. of the Company's issued Shares (excluding Shares held in 
treasury). 
 
 
Expected Timetable 
 
The expected timetable of the Proposals is set out at the end of this 
announcement.

Introduction 
 
The Board of Eclectic has been concerned for some time that the capital base of 
the Company is too small and that it would be desirable to raise further capital 
in order to increase the Company's net assets. However, in light of current 
market conditions and the relatively wide discount to net asset value at which 
the price of the Company's Shares continue to trade, it has not been possible 
for the Company to raise capital. 
 
Accordingly, the Board has reviewed the options available to the Company and the 
Independent Directors have concluded that it is in Shareholders' best interests 
to propose a reconstruction of the Company under which Shareholders will be 
offered the choice of rolling over into an investment in Utilico Limited, a 
larger investment company managed by ICM (an associated company of the Company's 
investment manager) which will adopt a similar investment objective and policy 
to that of the Company, or to elect for a cash exit, or a combination of these 
options. 
 
As Warren McLeland is a director of Eclectic and of Utilico, he has taken no 
part in the Board's consideration of the Proposals. Accordingly, the Independent 
Directors have taken responsibility for considering the Proposals on behalf of 
Shareholders and for reaching conclusions on the appropriate recommendation to 
be made to Shareholders. 
 
The Proposals are conditional upon, amongst other things, the approval of 
Shareholders at General Meetings to be held on 7 January 2011 and 17 January 
2011 respectively and the approval of the shareholders of Utilico and the 
holders of the ZDP Shares issued by Utilico Finance at separate class meetings 
of those shareholders convened to be held on 7 January 2011. 
 
Certain of the Company's major Shareholders have irrevocably undertaken to vote 
in favour of the resolutions to be proposed at the General Meetings to approve 
the Proposals and to elect to receive Utilico Shares under the Scheme in respect 
of their entire holdings of Shares, which in aggregate represent approximately 
71.83 per cent. of the Company's issued Shares (excluding Shares held in 
treasury). 
 
 
The Proposals 
 
The Proposals will involve a members' voluntary liquidation of the Company under 
which Shareholders (other than Overseas Holders) will be able to choose one or a 
combination of the following options: 
 
* to roll-over all or part of their investment in the Company into shares of 
Utilico on the basis of the FAV per Share of the Company and the Utilico FAV per 
Share (the "Utilico Option"); and/or 
 
* to realise all or part of their investment in the Company for cash, subject to 
a 5 per cent. discount to the FAV per Share (being a cash sum per Share equal to 
95 per cent. of the FAV per Share) (the "Cash Option"). 
 
Shareholders may make different Elections in respect of different parts of their 
holdings. 
 
Shareholders who do not make a valid Election under the Scheme will be deemed to 
have elected for the Cash Option in respect of their entire shareholding. 
 
Overseas Holders will be deemed to have elected for the Cash Option unless they 
have satisfied the Independent Directors and the Independent Utilico Directors 
that they may receive and hold Utilico Shares without breaching any relevant 
securities laws or regulations and without the need for compliance on the part 
of the Company or Utilico with any overseas laws, regulations, filing 
requirements or the like. 
 
The Proposals prevent the need for a realisation of the Company's investment 
portfolio in the open market as all of the portfolio will be sold to Utilico, 
adopting the values attributable to such assets in the calculation of the FAV 
per Share. 
 
 
Information on Utilico 
 
Background and capital structure 
Utilico is an exempted, closed-ended, investment company incorporated in Bermuda 
with limited liability which was launched in June 2007 as a continuation vehicle 
following the reconstruction and winding up of Utilico Investment Trust plc. The 
Company's investment manager, Ingot, was appointed as investment manager to 
Utilico at the time of its launch. ICM, an associated company of the Investment 
Manager, was subsequently appointed as Utilico's investment manager in September 
2010. 
 
Utilico has a leveraged balance sheet structure, with the ordinary shares of 
Utilico being leveraged by three classes of zero dividend preference shares 
issued by Utilico Finance (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Utilico) and by the bank 
debt and other borrowings of the Utilico Group. Utilico has also issued warrants 
to subscribe for Utilico Shares.  As at 30 November 2010, the effective gearing 
on the Utilico ordinary shares was 2.1 times (Source: Utilico).  The Utilico 
Shares and the Utilico Warrants and the ZDP Shares of Utilico Finance are each 
admitted to the Official List and traded on the Main Market of the London Stock 
Exchange. 
 
Further information on Utilico is set out in the Utilico Prospectus, which will 
be made available on Utilico's website at www.utilico.bm. 
 
Current and proposed investment objective and policy 
The current investment objective of Utilico is to provide long term capital 
appreciation by investing predominantly in infrastructure, utility and related 
companies (including other investment companies investing in those companies). 
 
Following a recent review of Utilico's current investment objective and policy 
by the Utilico Directors and ICM, the Utilico Board has concluded that the 
infrastructure and utilities sectors in emerging markets remain attractive. 
However, the Utilico Board has concluded that this is not the case in developed 
markets where these asset classes face a number of challenges. The Utilico Board 
is therefore proposing to adopt a new investment objective and policy which will 
allow Utilico to invest across all sectors and markets. The change of investment 
objective will position Utilico as an absolute return fund, utilising strengths 
in infrastructure and utilities investment as well as in the wider market. 
 
The Utilico Board proposes that the revised investment objective of Utilico will 
be to maximise shareholder returns by identifying and investing in investments 
where the underlying value is not reflected in the market price. This perceived 
undervaluation may arise from any number of factors including technological, 
market motivation, prospective financial engineering opportunities, competition 
or shareholder apathy. Utilico's revised investment policy will be flexible and 
will permit it to make investments in all sectors and markets worldwide. In the 
short to medium term following the implementation of the Scheme, it is 
anticipated that Utilico will continue to have a significant proportion of its 
gross assets invested in developed markets in existing utilities and related 
stocks. 
 
The directors of Utilico and Utilico Finance have convened a special general 
meeting of the shareholders of Utilico and separate class meetings of the ZDP 
Shareholders respectively to be held on 7 January 2011 to approve resolutions to 
adopt the revised investment policy of Utilico. The implementation of the Scheme 
is conditional upon the shareholders of Utilico and the ZDP Shareholders passing 
all the resolutions to be proposed at those meetings, including approving the 
adoption of Utilico's revised investment policy. 
 
Share Premium Cancellation and dividend policy 
Despite having positive revenue earnings in addition to revenue reserves, under 
Bermuda law Utilico has been unable to pay a dividend to its shareholders as a 
result of having negative capital reserves since March 2008. 
 
In connection with the Proposals, the Utilico Board is proposing to cancel the 
entire amount standing to the credit of the share premium account of Utilico, 
which will eliminate Utilico's negative capital reserves and thereby enable the 
future payment of dividends out of Utilico's revenue reserves and future revenue 
profits, subject to compliance with Bermuda law. 
 
The Share Premium Cancellation requires the consent of the shareholders of 
Utilico and the ZDP Shareholders. If such consents are obtained at the Utilico 
Special General Meeting and the Utilico Class Meetings then the Utilico 
Directors intend to reinstate Utilico's original dividend policy under which 
they anticipate distributing the majority of the net revenue arising from normal 
income streams (such as dividends from investments) less costs (such as 
management fees). Any dividend payments would be made in accordance with Bermuda 
law. 
 
 
Further information on the Proposals 
 
Realisation of certain non-cash assets prior to liquidation 
Following the Calculation Date but before the Effective Date, any non-cash 
assets comprised in the Cash Fund (which will represent 95 per cent. of the FAV 
per Share attributable to the Shares in respect of which Elections have been 
made, or deemed to be made, for the Cash Option) and in the Liquidation Fund 
will be sold by the Company to Utilico (under a Sale and Purchase Agreement to 
be entered into between the parties) for cash at a price equal to the values 
attributable to such assets in the calculation of the FAV per Share. These 
assets will be investments which fall within Utilico's current investment 
policy. The cash received from the sale of the non-cash assets will be used to 
help repay the Company's bank borrowings prior to the Effective Date and, 
following the Effective Date, to satisfy the Company's other liabilities and 
also to satisfy the entitlements of Shareholders electing or deemed to have 
elected for the Cash Option. 
 
Repayment of bank borrowings 
As at 30 November 2010, the Company had outstanding bank borrowings of 
approximately GBP1.36 million. It is the Directors' intention that, subject to 
approval of the Proposals at the First General Meeting, the bank borrowings will 
be repaid in full before the Second General Meeting. Accordingly, if the 
Proposals are approved at the First General Meeting but do not become effective 
because the resolution to be proposed at the Second General Meeting is not 
passed, the Company will continue in existence as an investment company but 
without the gearing provided by the bank borrowings. The Company will not incur 
any penalty or charges upon the repayment of its bank facilities. 
 
Dividends 
No dividends will be declared or paid on the Shares prior to the Effective Date. 
 
Illustrative financial effects of the Proposals 
The FAV per Share will be calculated as at the Calculation Date and will be 
lower than the net asset value attributable to a Share as it will reflect the 
Company's costs of implementing the Proposals and the known liabilities of the 
Company to the closure of its liquidation and the Liquidators' retention to 
provide for unknown liabilities. 
 
For illustrative purposes only, if the Scheme had become effective at close of 
business on 30 November 2010 and based on the assumptions set out in the notes 
below, the FAV per Share would have been 107.66 pence and the Utilico FAV per 
Share would have been 204.31 pence. The following table shows the attributable 
value to a Shareholder who had validly elected for the Utilico Option or had 
elected, or been deemed to have elected, for the Cash Option in respect of a 
holding of 1,000 Shares. It should be noted that these figures are given for 
illustrative purposes only and should not be regarded as a forecast of the 
actual FAV per Share or the actual Utilico FAV per Share to be calculated as at 
the Calculation Date.

Notes and assumptions: 
1.    As at the close of business on 30 November 2010, the middle market share 
price of a Share was 85.50 pence and of a Utilico Share was 151.75 pence; 
2.    As at the close of business on 30 November 2010, the NAV per Share and the 
proforma FAV per Share were 109.51 pence and 107.66 pence respectively; 
3.    As at the close of business on 30 November 2010, the NAV per Utilico Share 
and the proforma Utilico FAV per Share were 205.03 pence and 204.31 pence 
respectively; 
4.    Shareholders holding 71.83 per cent. of the Shares validly elect for the 
Utilico Option in respect of their entire holdings (being those who have given 
irrevocable undertakings to elect for the Utilico Option); 
5.    Current period revenue reserves are included within the relevant NAV 
calculations; 
6.    The Company's costs in respect of the Proposals are GBP275,000; 
7.    The retention retained by the Liquidators to cover unknown liabilities of 
the Company is GBP50,000; 
8.    Utilico's costs in respect of the Proposals and associated matters are 
GBP625,000; 
9.    Completion of the Proposals and the GPLPF Subscription as described in the 
Circular; and 
10.  No account of the Utilico Warrants is taken in calculating the Utilico FAV 
per Share. 
 
On the assumptions set out above, a Shareholder holding 1,000 Shares: 
 
+--+-------------------------------------------------------+ 
| -| who elects or is deemed to elect for the Cash Option, | 
|  | would receive GBP1,022.78 in cash (an increase over   |

|  | business on 30 November 2010 of 19.6 per cent.);      | 
|  |                                                       | 
+--+-------------------------------------------------------+ 
| -| who elects for the Utilico Option, would receive 526  | 
|  | Utilico Shares with, after completion of the          | 
|  | Proposals, a proforma net asset value attributable to | 
|  | those shares of GBP1,076.09 (compared to the net      | 
|  | asset value of GBP1,095.10 attributable to the 1,000  | 
|  | Shares held) and a market value of GBP798.21.         | 
+--+-------------------------------------------------------+ 
 
Conditions to the implementation of the Proposals 
Implementation of the Scheme is conditional on a number of conditions being 
fulfilled, including the passing of the special resolutions at the General 
Meetings and the passing of resolutions by the shareholders of Utilico and the 
ZDP Shareholders in order to, amongst other things, approve the issue of Utilico 
Shares pursuant to the Scheme, the GPLPF Subscription, the Share Premium 
Cancellation and the change to Utilico's investment policy. If any condition to 
the Scheme is not satisfied, the Scheme will not be implemented and the Company 
will continue in existence as an investment company.  If the Scheme is not 
implemented, the Board will continue to consider the options available to the 
Company to enhance Shareholder value. 
 
General Meetings 
The Proposals are conditional, inter alia, upon Shareholders' approval of the 
special resolutions to be proposed at the First GM and the Second GM.  The First 
GM will be held at 12.00 noon on 7 January 2011 and the Second GM will be held 
at 12.00 noon on 17 January 2011.  If either of the special resolutions to be 
proposed at the General Meetings is not passed, the Proposals will not become 
effective. 
 
Related party transaction 
As at the date of this announcement, NLPL is interested in 9,252,332 Shares, 
representing approximately 52.51 per cent. of the issued Shares (excluding 
Shares held in treasury). GPLPF is interested in 45,436,884 Utilico Shares, 
representing approximately 52.6 per cent. of the issued Utilico Shares. NLPL is 
controlled by the ultimate beneficial owner of GPLPF and as a result the Company 
and Utilico are related parties for the purposes of the AIM Rules. The Scheme, 
which requires the entering into of the Transfer Agreement and the Sale and 
Purchase Agreement, is therefore a related party transaction for the purposes of 
the AIM Rules. 
 
As noted above, Warren McLeland is a director of the Company and of Utilico and 
has taken no part in the Board's consideration of the Proposals. The Independent 
Directors consider, having consulted with Arbuthnot, that the terms of the 
Proposals are fair and reasonable insofar as Shareholders are concerned. 
 
Dealings and settlement in Shares and cancellation of the admission of the 
Shares to trading on AIM 
The Shares will be disabled in CREST at 5.00p.m. on 5 January 2011. The last day 
for dealings in Shares on AIM for normal settlement (to enable settlement prior 
to the Record Date) will accordingly be 30 December 2010. After 30 December 
2010, dealings should be for cash settlement only and will be registered in the 
normal way if the transfer, accompanied by the documents of title, is received 
by the Registrars by 6.00p.m. on 5 January 2011. Transfers received after 
6.00p.m. on 5 January 2011 will be returned to the persons lodging them. 
 
The Record Date, being the date for determining Shareholders' entitlements under 
the Scheme, is 6.00p.m. on 5 January 2011. 
 
Trading in the Shares on AIM will be suspended from 7.30a.m. on 7 January 2011 
and such suspension will remain in place until either the cancellation of the 
admission of the Shares to trading on AIM (following the Scheme becoming 
effective) or the removal of such suspension as soon as practicable following 
the decision of the Independent Directors to abandon the Proposals (only in 
circumstances where the Scheme will not become effective for any reason). 
 
If Shareholders pass the special resolution to be proposed at the First GM then 
the Shares will be reclassified as Reclassified Shares in order to implement the 
Scheme. Documents of title will not be issued, nor will CREST accounts be 
credited, in respect of the Reclassified Shares. The Reclassified Shares will 
not be admitted to trading on AIM. 
 
The Company has notified the London Stock Exchange of its intention to seek 
Shareholder approval for the cancellation of the admission of the Shares to 
trading on AIM.  If Shareholders pass the special resolution to be proposed at 
the First GM, it is expected that such cancellation will take effect on 18 
January 2011. 
 
If Shareholders dispose of their Shares otherwise than through the London Stock 
Exchange, they must make their own arrangements with the other parties concerned 
as regards entitlements to cash and/or Utilico Shares under the Scheme. 
 
If the Scheme becomes unconditional, Shareholders will retain their Shares. 
However, the Liquidators will not register changes in ownership of the Shares 
after the Scheme becomes unconditional save for transfers arising upon the death 
or insolvency of a Shareholder or transfers by a nominee to another nominee with 
no change in the beneficial ownership of the relevant Shares.  After the 
liquidation of the Company and the making of any distributions to Shareholders 
out of any surplus in the Liquidation Fund, existing certificates in respect of 
Shares held in certificated form will cease to be of value for any purpose and 
any existing credit of Shares held in uncertificated form in any stock account 
in CREST will be redundant. 
 
Shareholders' intentions 
The Independent Directors have consulted with NLPL, Custody Equity Management 
Limited and Ingot and each of those Shareholders has irrevocably undertaken to 
vote in favour of the resolutions to be proposed at the General Meetings and to 
elect for the Utilico Option in respect of their entire holdings of Shares, 
which in aggregate represent approximately 64.26 per cent. of the Company's 
issued Shares (excluding Shares held in treasury). 
 
Peter Burrows and Warren McLeland, who are Directors of the Company, have also 
irrevocably undertaken to elect for the Utilico Option under the Scheme in 
respect of their entire beneficial holdings of Shares, which in aggregate 
represent approximately 7.56 per cent. of the Company's issued Shares (excluding 
Shares held in treasury). 
 
Recommendation 
The Independent Directors, who have consulted with and been advised by 
Arbuthnot, consider that the Proposals are fair and reasonable insofar as 
Shareholders are concerned and are in the best interests of Shareholders as a 
whole. In providing its advice to the Independent Directors, Arbuthnot has taken 
into account the Independent Directors' commercial assessment of the Proposals. 
 
Accordingly, the Independent Directors unanimously recommend Shareholders to 
vote in favour of the resolutions to be proposed at the General Meetings. The 
Directors intend to vote in favour of those resolutions in respect of their 
entire beneficial holdings which, in aggregate, amount to 1,362,525 Shares, 
representing approximately 7.73 per cent. of the Company's current issued Shares 
(excluding treasury shares).

becomes effective.  Reclassified Shares will not be admitted to trading on AIM.

made on (or as soon as practicable after) 18 January 2011 through the CREST 
system. Any subsequent payments out of the Liquidation Fund will be made by 
cheque.
