ECOFIN U.S. RENEWABLES INFRASTRUCTURE TRUST PLC (the "Company")

Investment trust status

The Board of the Company announces that the aggregate proportion of the Company's voting power held by the public (as that term is used in section 446 of the Corporation Tax Act 2020, which outlines the conditions under which a company is not treated as a close company) is at 38% as at 15 April 2026, close to the minimum 35% threshold. This 38% includes 10% (of the Company) held by another investment trust. If the Company were to fall below the 35% threshold, or otherwise fail to satisfy the HMRC investment trust regime (including the conditions in CTA 2010 s.1158), it would risk loss of its investment trust status, including loss of the exemption from UK corporate tax on chargeable gains and other tax consequences. If a top 5 shareholder in the Company, which itself is not an investment trust, purchases further shares in the Company there is a risk that the company falls below the 35% threshold referred to above.
