Sequoia Economic Infrastructure Income Fund Limited

Net Asset Value as at 31 May 2016 and Investment Update

Company update

As of the 31st May 2016, the Company held 18 infrastructure bonds and 18 private debt investments, collectively valued at £282.4m including accrued interest, with an annualised yield-to-maturity (or yield-to-worst in the case of callable bonds) of 8.2% and a weighted average life across the acquired portfolio of approximately 5.9 years.

The investments are diverse across the UK, Western Europe, Australia, Canada and the US and include a wide range of asset types including road, rail, utility, power, shipping, renewables and aircraft leasing.

Approximately 53% of the Company portfolio comprised of floating rate assets, with only four LIBOR floors (other than those at zero percent). As such the portfolio's yield is likely to increase over time if LIBOR increases.

Investments in May include senior US dollar bonds issued by GFL. The bonds carry a 9.875% coupon and a maturity of 2021. The Company sold CAD 3mm of its existing position in the GFL 7.50% 2018 bonds in order to purchase $3mm of the 2021 issue, resulting in a yield pick-up without compromising credit quality. In addition, the Company made an incremental investment in DBB Jack-up Services A/S.

Results of C Share

The Company is pleased to announce that it has raised gross proceeds of approximately £175 million, in excess of the target issue amount of £150 million through a C Share issue. Admission became effective and dealings in the C Shares commenced on 10 June 2016. The Company currently has 302,674,216 Ordinary Shares and 175,171,834 C Shares in issue.

The initial estimated opening NAV of the C share at Admission is expected to be in excess of 98.25 pence per share. The board negotiated a different sharing of risks which has successfully reduced the issue costs to be borne by investors.

The Investment Adviser continues to see attractive opportunities for the deployment of capital in the economic infrastructure debt sector, and believes the C Share issuance will allow the Company to take advantage of these whilst further diversifying the portfolio. Specific opportunities currently being pursued include private debt backed by light rail, aircraft leasing, and power; plus bond opportunities in the pipeline sector and electricity generation.

Ordinary Share NAV performance

The increase in Ordinary Share NAV to 98.07p per share arose primarily through:

· Interest income net of expenses of 0.44p;

· A gain of 0.03p in asset valuations;

· A decrease of -0.09p on net FX movements.

Market Summary

May showed some activity in the infrastructure debt sector with ten transactions closing across the UK and Western Europe. Notable deals included the £2.6bn financing for the 588MW Beatrice offshore wind farm in Scottish Territorial Waters, as well as the 402MW Dudgeon offshore wind farm which reached financial close on a £1.3bn senior loan. In addition, Autoroutes du Sud de la France has placed a €500mm 10-year bond issue.

Opportunities in selected markets remained strong with US spread widening providing scope to improve credit quality and shorten duration. The emergence of new asset classes over the longer term, such as broadband and electricity storage, are creating new demand for infrastructure financing.

Sterling remained flat against the US dollar during the month at $1.46. Sterling strengthened against the Euro in May, moving from €1.27 to €1.31.

The Bloomberg USD High Yield Corporate Bond Index remained stable over the month at 156. 10-year US Treasury yields increased overall during the month from 1.83% to 1.85%, but reached an intra-month low of 1.70%.
