DIVIDEND DECLARATION

The Company is pleased to declare an interim dividend in respect of the financial period ending 30 September 2017 of $0.01 per ordinary share, payable on 31 January 2018 to ordinary shareholders on the register as at 15 December 2017. The dividend will be paid as 0.9938 cents per ordinary share as an interest payment and 0.0062 cents per ordinary share as an ordinary dividend. The dividend is in line with the Company's announced initial target yield of 4% per annum.

The Company has chosen to designate part of this interim dividend as an interest distribution. Shareholders in receipt of such a dividend will be treated for UK tax purposes as though they have received a payment of interest in respect of the interest distribution element of this dividend. This will result in a reduction in the corporation tax payable by the Company.
