Declaration of First Interim Dividend

The Directors have today declared a first interim dividend of 1.41 euro cents (equivalent to 1.27 pence) per Ordinary share, in respect of the year ending 31 December 2019. This first interim dividend will be paid in sterling on 10 July 2019 to Ordinary shareholders on the register on 21 June 2019 (ex-dividend date of 20 June 2019).

The intention remains to target a distribution level of 5% for an investor at launch in Euro terms. The Company's stated policy at launch was to engage, where appropriate, in currency hedging to seek to mitigate the potential volatility of income returns from the portfolio in sterling terms and to provide greater certainty as to the level of sterling distributions; but it does not seek to provide a long-term hedge for the Company's income returns, which will continue to be affected by movements in the euro/sterling exchange rate over the longer term, nor does it seek to undertake currency hedging in respect of the capital value of the portfolio. The Company has entered into an FX hedge to fix the exchange rate at which a full year's euro distributions will be converted to sterling to effect payments at a rate of €1:£0.8985.

The Company intends to declare quarterly interim dividends to Shareholders, with dividends declared in respect of the quarters ending on the following dates: 31 March, 30 June, 30 September and 31 December in each year.

Any such dividend payment to Shareholders may take the form of either dividend income or "qualifying interest income" which may be designated as an interest distribution for UK tax purposes and therefore subject to the interest streaming regime applicable to investments trusts.

Of this first interim dividend declared of 1.27 pence per Ordinary share, 0.94 pence is declared as dividend income with 0.33 pence treated as qualifying interest income.
