Payment of Interim Dividend and Allotment of Shares

The Company announces that on 6 May 2022 it paid an interim dividend of 1.5 pence per ordinary share for the year ending 31 December 2022 to shareholders on the register of members of the Company as at the record date of 1 April 2022 ("Interim Dividend").

The Company further announces that on 6 May 2022 it issued and allotted 903,714 ordinary shares of 10 pence each pursuant to its dividend re-investment scheme ("DRIS") at a price of 60.0 pence per ordinary share to shareholders of the Company who elected to receive ordinary shares instead of cash in respect of the Interim Dividend. The subscription price of 60.0 pence per ordinary share was determined in accordance with the terms and conditions of the DRIS on the basis of the last reported net asset value of 61.5 pence per ordinary share as announced on 21 March 2022 (adjusted for the Interim Dividend of 1.5 pence per ordinary share paid today). As a result, 20 per cent of the Interim Dividend paid by the Company was re-invested in ordinary shares in the Company via the DRIS.

Under this allotment the employees and members of the Investment Manager, YFM Private Equity Limited, have been allotted 3,125 ordinary shares of 10 pence each in the Company bringing their aggregate total holding to 429,299 ordinary shares.

Application is now being made for the ordinary shares which were issued and allotted as set out above to be admitted to the premium segment of the Official List of the Financial Conduct Authority and to trading on the London Stock Exchange's Main Market for listed securities, and dealings are expected to commence on or around 20 May 2022.

Following such issue and allotment the Company's issued share capital consists of 182,100,877 ordinary shares of 10 pence each with voting rights ("Voting Capital") and 17,112,331 ordinary shares of 10 pence each held in treasury.

The above statement of Voting Capital may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in the Company under the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
