The Company announces that it is satisfied that any inside information which the Directors or the Company may have had up to today's date has previously been notified to a Regulated Information Service ("RIS").

By virtue of the points set out in (1) to (4) below, the Directors and the Company do not currently expect there to be any inside information arising in the closed period which will end on the date of the announcement of the Company's Half-Yearly Report for the six months ended 30 April 2022.

1)   the announcement on 3 May 2022 of the Company's net asset value per share as of the close of business on 30 April 2022,

2)   the Company's belief, following reasonable enquiries, that there will be no material difference between the information published on 3 May 2022 and that to be included in the forthcoming announcement of the Half-Yearly Report,

3)   the Company's practice of calculating net asset values per share each business day and the announcement of these net asset values to an RIS, and

4)   there being no other unpublished information which constitutes price-sensitive information in respect of the Company's securities.

The Company is therefore not prohibited from dealing in its own securities during the closed period.

If, during the closed period leading up to the announcement of the Half-Yearly Report, the Company or its Directors become aware of any inside information, such inside information will be managed in accordance with the UKLA's DTR 2.
