VPC Specialty Lending Investments PLC

(the "Company")

DIVIDEND DECLARATION

The Board of Directors of the Company has declared an interim dividend of 1.80 pence per share for the three-month period to 31 December 2017, which is an increase from the Q1 and Q2 dividends of 1.50 and 1.70 pence per share, respectively and consistent with the Q3 dividend of 1.80 pence per share. Including this dividend, the Company has declared total dividends of 6.80 pence per share for 2017 compared to 6.00 pence per share for 2016. The dividend will be paid on 5 April 2018 to shareholders on the register as at 9 March 2018. The ex-dividend date is 8 March 2018.

The Company has elected to designate all of the interim dividend for the three-month period to 31 December 2017 as an interest distribution to its shareholders, thereby "streaming" income from interest-bearing investments into dividends that will be taxed in the hands of shareholders as interest income. No income tax will therefore be deducted at source from this, or from future interest distributions.
