The Company advises of amendments to the Issue of Equity announcement it released at 17:48 on 20 February 2023.

The reference to the number of Ordinary Shares allotted on 17 February 2023 has been corrected to 7,758,156 (and not 6,786,671 Ordinary Shares as originally announced). These Ordinary Shares were allotted at an average price of 55.7p (and not at an average price of 57.3p as originally announced), based on the latest net asset value of 53.8p, being the net asset value as at 30 November 2022 of 55.3p less the 1.5p dividend paid on 2 December 2022.

Of the Ordinary Shares referred to above, 6,975,941 were issued in certificated form and 782,215 Ordinary Shares (and not 760,996 Ordinary Shares as originally announced) were issued into CREST on 23 February 2023 (and not 20 February 2023 as originally announced).

Accordingly the issued share capital and the denominator for the purposes of the total voting rights of the Company is 298,375,886 Ordinary Shares (and not 298,165,397 Ordinary Shares as originally announced).

All other details remain unchanged.
