4 April 2014

PICTON PROPERTY INCOME LIMITED

("Picton" or the "Company")

Non-Mainstream Pooled Investments ("NMPI")

The Board of Picton Property Income Limited (the "Company") notes the changes to the Financial Conduct Authority's ("FCA") rules relating to the restrictions on the retail distribution of certain unregulated collective investment schemes and close substitutes ("Non-Mainstream Pooled Investments") which came into effect on 1 January 2014.

Following the receipt of legal advice, the Board confirms that, as at the date of this announcement, it conducts the Company's affairs, and intends to continue to conduct the Company's affairs, such that the Company would qualify for approval as an investment trust if it were based in the United Kingdom. As such the Company's shares will be excluded securities under the new rules and are therefore excluded from the FCA's restrictions which apply to Non-Mainstream Pooled Investment products.
