GUERNSEY, 25 MARCH 2020

The Board of Directors of JPEL Private Equity Limited ("JPEL" or the "Company") is pleased to announce JPEL's seventh capital distribution in respect of the Company's US$ Equity Share class ("Mandatory Redemption").

JPEL has benefitted from a strong level of realisations from its underlying portfolio and the Company has resolved to return a total of $40 million to JPEL US$ Equity Shareholders.

The $40 million capital return (the equivalent of approximately 22.35 million US$ Equity Shares, or 14.8% of US$ Equity Shareholder NAV) will be by way of a pro rata compulsory redemption of US$ Equity Shares at a price equal to the prevailing NAV per US$ Equity Share of $1.79 as at 31 December 2019 (being the most recent NAV per US$ Equity Share available as of the date of this announcement) for US$ Equity Shareholders on the register of members as at close of business on 31 March 2020 ("Record Date"). Unless circumstances require otherwise, this NAV will form the NAV per US$ Equity Share as of the date of redemption.

Payments of redemption proceeds are expected to be effected either through CREST (in the case of shares held in uncertificated form) or by cheque (in the case of shares held in certificated form) on or around 9 April 2020. Any share certificates for the balance of holdings of shares will also be despatched to shareholders on or around 9 April 2020.

The Company currently has 151,447,719 US$ Equity Shares in issue. All of the US$ Equity Shares redeemed on the redemption date will be cancelled and any fractions of shares will be rounded down to the nearest whole share.

The US$ Equity Shares will be disabled in CREST on the Record Date and the existing ISIN number GG00BKTRF395 (the "Old ISIN") will expire. A new ISIN number GG00BMDQPC56 (the "New ISIN") in respect of the remaining US$ Equity Shares which have not been redeemed will be enabled and available for transactions on 1 April 2020. For the period up to and including the Record date, US$ Equity Shares will be traded under the Old ISIN and as such, a purchaser of such shares may have a market claim for the redemption proceeds following the activation of the New ISIN. CREST will automatically transfer any open transactions as at the redemption date to the New ISIN.

Inclusive of this Mandatory Redemption, JPEL will have returned $339.2 million to US$ Equity Shareholders, or approximately 71% of the Company's 31 October 2016 NAV, the prevailing NAV at the time of the Company's first mandatory redemption.

DIRECTOR'S INTERESTS

As of 23 March 2020, Sean Hurst, Christopher Spencer and Tony Dalwood, Directors of the Company, owned 11,169, 13,475 and 57,244 US$ Equity Shares, respectively. As a result of the Mandatory Redemption described above, Sean Hurst, Christopher Spencer and Tony Dalwood are expected, immediately following the redemption date, to hold approximately 9,521, 11,487 and 48,798 US$ Equity Shares, respectively.
