 UPDATE ON REFINANCING

USF is pleased to provide an update on the proposed refinancing of its senior debt facilities (the "Proposed Refinancing"), further to previous announcements.

The Investment Manager has conducted a thorough process and reviewed a wide range of options which can achieve the key objectives of the Proposed Refinancing (as outlined below). Following the Board's review during Q4 2024, the Investment Manager continues to take this process forward. Subject to market conditions, the Company aims to complete the refinancing prior to the release of its Annual Results for the year ending 31 December 2024 (expected in April 2025). Further details will be provided at that time.

The key objectives of the Proposed Refinancing remain as follows:

♦ extension of the amortisation profile of existing debt to improve near-term operational cash dividend coverage and financial returns to shareholders;

♦ availability of upfront proceeds to support the further return of capital to shareholders;

♦ ensuring the robustness of the Company's balance sheet and ability to meet its future obligations; and

♦ enhancing the profile of the portfolio for current and prospective shareholders.
