Update on Third Transaction

3 January 2017

The Board of UK Mortgages Limited (“UKML”) and TwentyFour Asset Management LLP (“TwentyFour”) are pleased to announce that following extensive work both before and during the Christmas period, terms have been agreed and signed for the purchase of the existing pool of mortgages discussed in the Company’s announcement dated 7 December 2016. If completed, this transaction will be UKML’s third transaction and will deploy the remaining investible capital.

Given the advanced nature of the negotiations, the expectation is that the transaction will be completed early in 2017, following the finalisation of certain pre-acquisition diligence, documentation and financing arrangements.

More details will be made available once the transaction is completed, but the expectation is that this transaction will generate a gross IRR for UKML in excess of 8%* from the date of purchase.
