Based on 114,012,973 ordinary shares outstanding as at 17 October 2024. The Spruce House Partnership LLC (SH) is an aggregating entity to its sole member funds: The Spruce House Partnership (AI) LP and The Spruce House Partnership (QP) LP - the general partner of both funds is Spruce House Capital LLC (itself controlled equally by Ben Stein and Zach Sternberg). The voting rights (or deemed voting rights) attached to the positions held by SH are exercised by Spruce House Investment Management LLC, which is controlled equally by Ben Stein and Zach Sternberg. As at the date on which the threshold was crossed, a portion of SH's position is held through a Total Return Swap, which is a cash-settled derivative and gives no access to voting rights in the company. SH is however 'deemed' to hold voting rights pursuant to DTR 5.3. The Total Return Swap references a basket in which the ordinary shares of Victoria PLC represent >20% of the total value of the securities in that basket.
