Net Asset Value, Dividend and Update on C Share Conversion

Net Asset Values

SQN Asset Finance Income Fund Limited (the "Company"), the only diversified equipment leasing fund listed in the UK, is pleased to provide its monthly net asset value ("NAV") update.

Ordinary Shares

As at 30 September 2016, the unaudited estimated NAV per Ordinary Share (cum-income) was 99.57 pence. This includes the 0.6042 pence per Ordinary Share dividend announced on 21 September 2016 that went ex-dividend on 6 October 2016 and will be paid on 24 October 2016. On a pro-forma basis, the unaudited estimated NAV per Ordinary Share, adjusted for the payment of this dividend to holders of Ordinary Shares, is 98.97 pence.

C Shares

As at 30 September 2016, the unaudited estimated NAV per C Share (cum-income) was 98.53 pence. This includes the 0.4861 pence per C Share dividend announced on 21 September 2016 that went ex-dividend 6 October 2016 and will be paid on 24 October 2016. On a pro-forma basis, the unaudited estimated NAV per C Share, adjusted for the payment of this dividend to holders of C Shares, is 98.04 pence.

Dividend

The Company is pleased to announce a dividend of 0.6042 pence per Ordinary Share for the month ended 30 September 2016. The dividend will be payable on 21 November 2016 to holders of Ordinary Shares on the register on 4 November 2016. The ex-dividend date is 3 November 2016.

In light of the C Share Conversion, the Company is not declaring a separate C Share dividend for the period to 30 September 2016. The holders of C Shares will have their C Shares converted to Ordinary Shares prior to the record date for the Ordinary Share dividend on the basis of the Conversion Ratio set out below. Therefore, in relation to the month ended 30 September 2016, holders of C Shares will be entitled to receive 0.6042 pence per new Ordinary Share issued pursuant to the Conversion.

C Share Conversion

Further to the announcement on 14 October 2016, the Board is pleased to announce the Conversion Ratio for Conversion of the C Shares into Ordinary Shares in accordance with the terms set out in the Company's prospectus dated 18 September 2015 (the "Prospectus").

The ex-dividend NAVs attributable to the Ordinary Shares and the C Shares as at the Calculation Time, being 14 October 2016, were 98.71 pence per Ordinary Share and 98.01 pence per C Share. The change in the NAVs since 30 September 2016 reflects the income and expenses accrued and a change in the value of exchange rate hedging which has been impacted by the recent fall in the value of Sterling, which is expected to unwind over time.

Therefore, the Conversion Ratio, as calculated in accordance with the terms set out in the Prospectus, is 0.9929 Ordinary Shares for every one C Share held. Entitlements will be rounded down to the nearest whole Ordinary Share.

On the basis of the Conversion Ratio, a holder of 1,000 C Shares will receive 992 new Ordinary Shares upon Conversion.

The Ordinary Shares arising on Conversion will rank pari passu with, and will have the same rights as, the Ordinary Shares of the Company already in issue, including the right to receive the dividend declared for the month ending 30 September 2016.

Application has been made for 178,722,000 new Ordinary Shares to be admitted to the Official List and to trading on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange. It is expected that admission will become effective and that dealings in the new Ordinary Shares will commence on 25 October 2016.

The C Shares will be permanently removed from trading on the London Stock Exchange with effect from the opening of trading at 8:00 a.m. on 25 October 2016.

Effective from 25 October 2016, the total number of Ordinary Shares in issue will be 357,707,507 and the total number of voting rights in the Company will be 357,707,507. This figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Rules and Transparency Rules. No shares are held in Treasury.

Further details of the Conversion and rights attaching to the C Shares are set out in the Prospectus.

The expected timetable for Conversion is as follows:

Terms used and not defined in this announcement have the meanings given in the Prospectus unless the context otherwise requires.
