Proposed Issue of Equity

The Board of Directors (the "Board") of International Public Partnerships Limited (the "Company" and/or "INPP") is pleased to announce that in response to ongoing market demand the Company is intending to raise additional funds through the issue of ordinary shares of 0.01p each in the capital of the Company (the "New Ordinary Shares") by way of tap issuance (the "Issue"). The Issue will be made to qualifying investors through the Company's corporate broker, Numis Securities Limited ("Numis").

The Board is launching the fund raising in response to specific market demand. The additional funds will be used to repay drawn facilities. While the Board are launching the raise in response to a specific investor, the Company wishes to invite other interested investors to participate in the offer.

The Board is proposing to undertake the Issue at an Issue price per New Ordinary Share of 155.5p, which represents a premium of 6.0% to the 30 June 2019 Company's ex-dividend net asset value ("NAV").

Following recent investments the Company is currently £103 million drawn against its £400 million corporate debt facility. The Company also notes that it has c.£50 million of investment commitments including Rampion offshore transmission projects in its near-term pipeline and that it is confident that there is a strong pipeline of opportunities in the U.K. and overseas currently under consideration beyond this.

Given the investment commitments and investment opportunities noted above and having regard to wider market considerations the Company believes that it is appropriate at this time to raise further equity capital and expects to raise approximately £30m of additional equity capital at this time (but may consider raising additional amounts at its discretion and depending on shareholder demand). The additional capital will be used to pay down the existing corporate debt facility further and be applied to the additional commitments and opportunities of the Company referred to above. The New Ordinary Shares will, when issued, rank pari passu with the existing Ordinary Shares.

The Issue is expected to close at 12 noon (London time) on Friday, 6 December 2019, but may close earlier or later at the absolute discretion of the Board.

Qualified investors are invited to apply for New Ordinary Shares by contacting Numis on the contact details below. The decision to allot New Ordinary Shares to any qualified investor shall be at the absolute discretion of the Board and Numis.

Information to Distributors

Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements contained within: (a) EU Directive 2014/65/EU on markets in financial instruments, as amended ("MiFID II"); (b) Articles 9 and 10 of Commission Delegated Directive (EU) 2017/593 supplementing MiFID II; and (c) local implementing measures, in the UK being the FCA's Product Intervention and Governance Sourcebook (PROD) (together, the "MiFID II Product Governance Requirements"), and disclaiming all and any liability, whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise, which any "manufacturer" (for the purposes of the MiFID II Product Governance Requirements) may otherwise have with respect thereto, the New Ordinary Shares have been subject to a product approval process, which has determined that the New Ordinary Shares are: (i) compatible with an end target market of professionally advised retail investors who do not need a guaranteed income or capital protection and investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties, each as defined in MiFID II; and (ii) eligible for distribution a) if to professionally advised retail investors, through advised distribution channels only; or b) through such distribution channels as are appropriate to professional clients and eligible counterparties, (in each case) as are permitted by MiFID II (the "Target Market Assessment"). Notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, Distributors should note that: the price of New Ordinary Shares may decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment; the New Ordinary Shares offer no guaranteed income and no capital protection; and an investment in New Ordinary Shares is compatible only with investors who do not need a guaranteed income or capital protection, who (either alone or in conjunction with an appropriate financial or other adviser) are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such an investment and who have sufficient resources to be able to bear any losses that may result therefrom. The Target Market Assessment is without prejudice to the requirements of any contractual, legal or regulatory selling restrictions in relation to the Issue. Furthermore, it is noted that, notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, Numis will only contact prospective applicants for participation in the Issue who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Target Market Assessment does not constitute: (a) an assessment of suitability or appropriateness for the purposes of MiFID II; or (b) a recommendation to any investor or group of investors to invest in, or purchase, or take any other action whatsoever with respect to New Ordinary Shares. Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the New Ordinary Shares and determining appropriate distribution channels.
