CLOSE HIGH INCOME PROPERTIES PLC (the "Company")

ANNOUNCEMENT OF NAV

The board of Close High Income Properties PLC advises that as at close of business on 28 February 2010, the unaudited net asset value per Ordinary Share of 1 penny each of the Company was 29.44 pence (31 January 2010: 29.29 pence). This represents an increase of 0.51 per cent per Ordinary Share.

During the month the market value of the first interest rate swap liability entered into by the Company decreased by £0.22 million to a liability of £2.61 million (31 January 2010: liability of £2.83 million). The market value of the second interest rate swap liability entered into by the Company increased by £0.05 million to a liability of £0.22 million (31 January 2010: liability of £0.17 million). The market value of the third interest rate swap liability entered into by the Company increased by £0.11 million to a liability of £0.48 million (31 January 2010: £0.37 million). The total decrease in the Company's interest rate swap liabilities during the month represented an increase in net asset value of £0.06 million to a total liability of £3.31 million (31 January 2010: total liability of £3.37 million).

Whilst the total market valuation of the interest rate swaps is currently in deficit, their value will run to zero over the term of the contracts. The swaps continue to provide a fixed rate of interest to the Company. It is not the intention of the Company to dispose of the swaps and realise the deficit as the Company continues to benefit from fixed rate funding.

There were no property sales completed during February 2010.

The net asset value is calculated under International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS").

The property portfolio will next be valued by an external valuer at 31 March 2010 and the net asset value per share as at 31 March 2010 will be announced in April 2010.
