RISK FACTORS

There are a number of risk factors of which Investors should be aware. The Companies and the Directors consider the following risks to be material for potential Investors, although the risks listed below do not necessarily comprise all those associated with an investment in the Companies and are not set out in any order of priority. Additional risks and uncertainties currently unknown to the Companies and the Directors (such as changes in legal, regulatory or tax requirements), or which the Companies and the Directors currently believe to be immaterial, may also have a materially adverse effect on the financial condition or prospects of the Companies, or on the trading price of the Shares.

Risk factors relating to new shares

• The value of an investment in the Companies and the level of income derived from them may go down as well as up. Shareholders may get back less than the amount originally invested in the Companies.
• The value of the New Shares depends on the performance of its underlying assets. The market price of the New Shares may not fully reflect their underlying NAV and will be determined, among other things, by the interaction of supply and demand for such shares in the market, as well as the NAV per New Share. Generally, trading in VCT shares is not active and, therefore, the New Shares are likely to be valued at a discount to their net asset value and may be difficult to realise.
• The majority of the Companies' investments are, and will generally be, in companies whose securities are not publicly traded or freely marketed and may, therefore, be difficult, and take time, to realise. There may also be constraints imposed on the realisation of investments, in order to maintain the VCT tax status of the Companies. It can take a period of years for the underlying value or quality of the business of smaller companies, such as those in which the Companies invest, to be fully reflected in their market values, and their market values are often also materially affected by general market sentiment, which can be negative for prolonged periods.
• Investment in the New Shares should be viewed as a long-term investment.
• Shareholders should be aware that the disposal of New Shares within five years of their allotment will require the repayment of some or all of any income tax relief which they may have obtained upon investment.
• Accordingly, an investment in the Companies is not suitable as a short or medium term investment. Further, the disposal of Existing Shares in a Company within six months either side of the acquisition of New Shares in that same Company will result in the amount of the investment in those New Shares to which VCT tax reliefs are available being reduced by an amount equal to the proceeds received on the disposal.
• Although the Existing Shares are already listed, and it is intended that the New Shares will be listed, on the premium segment of the Official List and

admitted to trading on the main market for listed securities of the London Stock Exchange, it is likely that there will not be a liquid market in the New Shares and Shareholders may have difficulty in selling their New Shares as a result. Accordingly, Admission to the Official List and to trading on the main market for listed securities of the London Stock Exchange should not be taken as implying that there will be a liquid market for the New Shares. Shareholders may not be able to realise their investment at the NAV or at all.

• Investments by VCTs are Risk Finance State Aid. Where the European Commission believes that Risk Finance State Aid has been provided which is not in accordance with The Risk Finance Guidelines, it may require that the UK Government recover that Risk Finance State Aid. There is currently no mechanism in place for this, but recovery may be from the investee companies, the Companies or the Companies' investors.
• Although it is intended that the Companies will be managed so as to qualify as VCTs, and retain such status, there is no guarantee that such status will be achieved or maintained for the necessary periods, to enable Shareholders to retain their tax reliefs. If the Companies fail to meet the qualifying requirements of VCTs, this could result in Shareholders being required to repay the initial 30% income tax rebate received on subscription for New Shares, the loss of income tax relief on dividends paid on New Shares, the loss of tax relief previously obtained in relation to corporation tax and capital gains made by the Companies, a liability to tax on capital gains on any disposal of any New Shares and the loss of the listings of the Companies.

Risks relating to the Companies and their investment policy

• There can be no guarantee that the investment objectives of the Companies will be achieved or that suitable investment opportunities will be available. The success of the Companies will depend on the Investment Adviser's ability to identify, acquire and realise investments in accordance with the Companies' investment policy and there can be no assurance that the Investment Adviser will be able to do so. Investment in unquoted companies, by its nature, involves a higher degree of risk than investment in companies traded on the main market for listed securities of the London Stock Exchange. In particular, smaller companies often have limited product lines, markets or financial resources and may be dependent on small management teams. In addition, the market for stock in smaller companies is often less liquid than that for stock in larger companies, bringing with it potential difficulties in acquiring, valuing and disposing of such stock. Full information for determining their value or the risks to which they are exposed may also not be available. The Companies' investments may be difficult to realise.
• Changes in legislation concerning VCTs may limit the number of Qualifying Investment opportunities, reduce the level of returns which would otherwise have been achievable or result in the Companies not being able to meet their investment objective.
• The Boards have broad discretion to monitor the performance of Gresham House and the power to

appoint a successor, however Gresham House's performance or that of any successor cannot be guaranteed.

The past performance of the Companies or other funds managed or advised by Gresham House is not a guide to the future performance of the Companies. No assurance can be given that profits will be achieved or that substantial losses will not be incurred.

There can be no guarantee that any member of Gresham House's team referred to in Part II of this document, or otherwise with a significant role in advising on the Companies' investments, will remain with Gresham House or that Gresham House will be able to attract and retain other suitable staff. The departure of a key member of Gresham House's staff may have an adverse effect on the performance of the Companies.

• The Companies will be subject to risks associated with renewable energy projects, which include lower than expected wind speeds, lower than projected irradiation levels, lower than expected energy output, downtime of any energy generation equipment, changes in government legislation, volatility in annual revenues, increasing operational costs and unavailability of Power Purchase Agreements ("PPAs"). The Companies intend to mitigate the associated risks through a diversified portfolio in proven technology, long-term guaranteed contracts and trusted historical data.
• Annual energy output may fluctuate and as such annual revenues may experience volatility. This may influence the availability of dividends that may be paid out to Investors. The risk can be mitigated through a diversified portfolio, without reliance on one single project or technology.
• The renewable energy projects owned by the Companies receive revenues from Feed-in-Tariffs ("FiTs") and Renewable Obligation Certificates. The delays on these being paid over to the Companies by OFGEM and PPA counterparties could affect cashflows and, therefore, the timing of dividend payments by the Companies.
• The most valuable assets owned by the Companies carry leverage and are subject to debt covenants. Consistent operational and financial underperformance may result in lenders enforcing security over the assets in order to recover their loans, which could reduce the value of the Companies' investments in those companies.
• A change of Government or a change in Government policy could alter the policies that influence the electricity prices and thus the revenues of the Companies. Gresham House, however, believes that the risk is significantly mitigated by long-term guaranteed contracts that are index price linked, such as FiTs or PPAs. Furthermore, the UK government is renowned for grandfathering the regulatory support for any previously consented or operational projects. Increases in interest rates or changes in the terms offered by senior lenders in financing renewable energy projects could reduce the returns available from investment in renewable energy projects. Should debt be used to finance investee projects, this risk should be reduced as

lending will typically be at a fixed rate of interest over the term of the debt.

• There is no guarantee that the Companies will source sufficient deal flow of operational or fully consented projects to meet the required criteria of Qualifying Investments. Should such a situation arise, Qualifying Investments will be sought in AIM listed companies in order to fulfil the Companies' primary aim of securing and maintaining their VCT status. This could, however, reduce the potential returns from the investments.
• There can be no certainty that the equipment used to generate renewable energy will not be subject to downtime, which could reduce the margins of the investee plants. The Companies will mitigate this risk by utilising proven technology with multi-year warranties and maintenance contracts.
• On 24 June 2016 it was announced that UK electorate had voted to leave the European Union ("EU"). At the date of this Document, negotiations are ongoing over the manner and form of the UK's withdrawal from the EU. As the Companies are impacted by European-led legislation, the future regulatory environment is therefore subject to significant uncertainty. However, at least in the short term and until the UK's withdrawal from the European Union has been agreed, the Companies will continue to be subject to European-led legislation, as enacted into UK legislation.
• Following publication in August 2017 by HM Treasury of "Financing Growth in Innovative Firms", the results of its "Patient Capital Review" which considered the effectiveness of schemes such as VCTs in relation to patient capital, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, in his Autumn Budget on 22 November 2017, announced certain changes to the rules relating to VCTs, which were enacted in Finance Act 2018. Guidance Notes were issued by HMRC and HM Treasury on 4 December 2017. One of the changes is that the question of whether a company's investments can be considered as Qualifying Investments for VCT purposes will be considered by HMRC using a "principles based approach" known as the "risk-to-capital condition". Applications to HMRC for advance assurance in this regard ("Advance Assurance Applications") are now considered in the light of this new principles-based approach. Changes have also been made in respect of the annual limits for investments into Knowledge Intensive Companies, the percentage of a VCT's total investments that must be in Qualifying Investments, the percentage of Qualifying Investments that must be in eligible shares, the trades into which older VCT funds can be invested and the time period in which Qualifying Investments must be made. The legislative changes referred to above could impact the level of demand and competition for investment in the target markets of the Companies.
• A resolution will be put to Shareholders at the annual general meetings of the Companies due to take place in 2021 (and, thereafter, at five yearly intervals) on whether they wish to wind up the Companies or whether the Companies should continue as VCTs. Should the Shareholders wish to wind up the Companies, then the Boards will draw up proposals for the liquidation, reconstruction or reorganisation of the Companies. As the minimum 5 year VCT holding period for the New Shares goes

beyond 2021, in the event that these continuation votes are not passed, it may not ultimately be possible for Investors to hold New Shares for the minimum 5 year VCT holding period and the income tax relief obtained on the amount subscribed in the Companies for New Shares may have to be repaid by Investors. However, in such circumstances, the Directors will endeavour to put in place, if possible, a winding up plan that may allow Investors to hold New Shares for the minimum 5 year VCT holding period.

Risks relating to taxation and regulation

• The information in this document is based on existing legislation, including taxation legislation. The tax reliefs described are those currently available. The tax rules or their interpretation in relation to an investment of the Companies and/or rates of tax may change during the life of the Companies and such changes may be retrospective. The value of tax reliefs depends on the personal circumstances of holders of Shares in the Companies, who should consult their own tax advisers before making any investment.
• The Companies intends to manage their affairs in respect of each accounting period so as to obtain, and thereafter maintain, approval as VCTs. However, there can be no guarantee that the Companies will be able to maintain VCT status. In the event that the Companies fail to maintain approval as VCTs, before Investors have held their Shares for five years, the income tax relief obtained on the amount subscribed in the Companies will have to be repaid by such Investors. Dividends paid in an accounting period where VCT status is lost will become taxable and an Investor will generally be liable to income tax on the aggregate amount of the dividend, subject to the Investor's previous utilisation of the £5,000 dividend allowance.
• Where approval as a VCT is not maintained the Companies will also lose their exemption from corporation tax on capital gains.

PART I - LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMEN

HAZEL RENEWABLE ENERGY VCTS

17 September 2018

Dear Investor,

Opportunity to subscribe for New Shares in Hazel Renewable Energy VCT1 plc and Hazel Renewable Energy VCT2 plc

We are pleased to invite Investors to participate in two separate offers for subscription for New Shares in Hazel Renewable Energy VCT1 plc and two separate offers for subscription for New Shares in Hazel Renewable Energy VCT2 plc ("VCTS"). The First Offers will be open to Investors subscribing for less than £100,000 in either of the Companies (subject to the minimum investment in either Company of £10,000). The Second Offers will be open to Investors subscribing for £100,000 or more in either of the Companies. Investment will be for the tax year 2018/2019 only. Each of the Offers is limited to EUR 3 million (approximately £2.7 million at the time of writing) per Company and the aggregate amount per Company is £3.23million, the limit of what can be raised without a prospectus, across the two Offers.

At the beginning of the current tax year, a change in a key rule governing existing VCT investments came into effect. The change related to the proportion of qualifying investments any VCT needs to hold in its portfolio in order to remain qualifying, thus allowing its investors to benefit from the tax advantages that the VCT offers. The required proportion was raised from 70% to 80%, effective from 6 April 2019. Whilst the VCTs are projected to meet the new requirements, the changes have substantially reduced the buffer by which they do so.

The Boards believe it to be prudent and in the best interest of all shareholders to increase this buffer by making new investments, within areas specified in the original mandate of the Companies, in opportunities that currently qualify under the VCT rules. In addition, the Boards intend to make a limited proportion of total funds raised available for share buybacks.

Gresham House, the Investment Adviser, is confident of identifying investment opportunities consistent with the Companies' original mandate of maximising capital gains and income for shareholders, thereby complementing the majority of the VCT core holdings of asset backed renewable generation investments. These include companies involved in cleantech hardware and software development, and companies providing services to the cleantech sector. Companies that are quoted on London's AIM market are also included within the Companies' original mandate. Such investments can offer the potential of higher returns, over the long term, than renewable generation investments that no longer count as qualifying investments under VCT rules.

The cleantech sector continues to grow rapidly as a result of both the commitment of the UK Government to substantially decarbonise the economy and the falling costs of equipment and engineering. The continued growth in renewable generation and the move towards increased electrification in other energy intensive areas such as heating, and transport is providing a supportive backdrop for new businesses to flourish. The wider sustainability and environmental investment space is also giving rise to attractive business models.

We are reassured by the confidence expressed by the Investment Adviser that, over the next two years, they will be able to invest the capital raised in qualifying companies with suitable income and growth characteristics.

The key features of the opportunity for Investors can be summarised as follows:

• 1. Income tax relief Subscriptions to VCTs currently attract income tax relief at the rate of 30%. This means that, for every £1 invested, the net cost to Investors should be 70p.
• 1. Dividend policy The Companies' general dividend policy is to distribute surplus funds generated by the underlying investments, subject to maintaining an appropriate cash reserve within the Companies to meet anticipated future requirements. The Companies have an objective of paying annual dividends of at least 5p per Share per annum, equivalent to approximately 4.3% of current NAV. Potential Investors should note that the level of dividend payments may vary and is not guaranteed. Since inception each of the Companies has paid, in total, dividends of 39.5p for a combined holding of one Ordinary and one A Share.
• 1. Inflation protection revenues earned from FiTs and ROCs by renewable energy projects in the Companies' portfolios are index-linked (to RPI) for 20 years (25 years for FiT remunerated projects commissioned prior to March 2012, which is the case for the vast majority of the Companies' investments) from the date of commissioning of the projects. These revenues account for the majority of aggregate revenues earned across the Companies' portfolios. Typically, there is an additional 5 years of unsubsidised electricity revenue given planning permissions are usually for 25 years (i.e. 5 years longer than the ROC or FiT subsidised period). The investments earning FiTs in the Companies' portfolios will not be affected by the UK Government's decision to end the FiT scheme next year, as this decision will not apply retrospectively
• 1. Mature portfolio The Companies hold an existing portfolio of 16 investments in UK renewable energy projects all of which qualify for the Government-backed, FiT or ROC regimes. Investment activity has focused upon three areas: ground-mounted solar (8 projects), rooftop solar (4 projects), and small wind generation (4 projects). The new investments made in companies that may not have asset backing will account for no more than 10% of the Net Asset Value at cost.
• 1. Potential for incremental returns through new investments the Investment Adviser is confident that it will be able to source new investments with an attractive risk/reward profile in the rapidly growing cleantech and environmental sustainability sectors. The Investment Adviser will prioritise investments that offer a yield from the date of investment and those that have a clearly defined, potentially profitable exit route.

Further details are provided within this document.

If Investors have any questions regarding this investment they should contact their financial adviser. For questions relating to an application, please contact Lizzie Darbourne at Gresham House on 0203 903 0562. Investors should note that no investment advice can be given by either Gresham House or Downing LLP and their attention is drawn to the Risk Factors set out on pages 3 to 5 of this document.

Yours sincerely,

Gillian Nott Christian Yates Chairman Chairman Hazel Renewable Energy VCT1 plc Hazel Renewable Energy VCT2 plc

PART II - THE OFFERS

Introduction

The Companies were launched as part of a linked VCT offering in October 2010. £41.6 million was raised for this linked VCT offer which was closed to new investment in August 2011. Linked VCT top-up offers were subsequently launched in March 2012, March 2014 and March 2018, under which additional proceeds of £4.15 million, £4.1 million and £4.15 were raised respectively.

Since inception the Companies have sought to take advantage of favourable conditions for investment in renewable energy projects as a result of either the UK Government's FiT regulatory regime or the ROC scheme. Investments have been made in small wind, rooftop and ground-mounted solar projects, either once they have been commissioned or at the project construction stage. Today, all the Companies' projects are operational and most are accredited to receive FiTs or ROCs for the life of the projects (20 years for the FiT wind and ROC solar projects and 25 years for the FiT solar projects).

Investments in renewable energy generation no longer count as qualifying investments under VCT rules. The new capital raised will be deployed into opportunities consistent with the terms of the Companies' original mandate stated in their Prospectuses, of maximising tax-free income and capital gains to shareholders. These include companies involved in cleantech hardware and software development, companies providing services to the cleantech sector, and companies developing new projects. Companies that are quoted on London's AIM market are also included within the Company's original mandate. Although the Companies have until 30 September 2020 to deploy the new capital for the purpose of increasing the qualifying capital ratio, Gresham House has already commenced screening potential investment opportunities and will strive to deploy the new capital quickly without compromising on the rigorous process it employs in selecting and investigating new investment opportunities.

Benefits for existing Shareholders

The Directors believe that the proposed fundraising will benefit existing Shareholders in the following ways:

• Issuing New Shares increases the capital available to the Companies to invest in new businesses. The following benefits are also associated with this capital:
• Existing Shareholders who wish to increase their shareholding may subscribe to this issue of New Shares;
• The fixed running costs of the Companies will be spread over an increased number of Shares, reducing the level of the running costs attributable to each Share and, therefore, providing the potential for enhanced returns to Shareholders;

• The percentage of qualifying (under VCT rules) holdings in the portfolio will increase, providing a further buffer above the newly increased minimum of 80% that applies from 30 September 2019, by the portion of the proceeds from the fundraising which are invested in new opportunities that qualify under VCT rules; and

• The potential for enhanced returns from new investments in companies with attractive growth and income characteristics.

Benefits for new Shareholders

The Directors believe that the proposed fundraising will benefit holders of New Shares in the following ways:

• 30% income tax relief on their investment;
• An investment portfolio with asset-backed existing investments index-linked income streams at its core; and
• The potential for enhanced returns from new investments in companies with attractive growth and income characteristics.

The issue of the New Shares, rather than a new class of shares, provides immediate exposure to the Companies' existing portfolio of UK-wide renewable energy projects, with the benefit of reduced risk given the projects are known, approved and accruing revenues from electricity generation.

Further details on the available tax benefits are set out below and in Part III.

Investment objectives

The Companies' principal objectives are to:

• Invest in a portfolio of clean technology investments, primarily in the UK and the EU, that have attractive income and growth characteristics, with investments in existing asset-backed renewable generation projects as the core of the portfolio;
• Maximise tax free capital gains and income to Shareholders from dividends and capital distributions; and
• Maintain VCT status to enable Shareholders to retain the 30% income tax relief on their investment.

Taxation benefits to Investors (see Part III for further details)

The principal UK tax reliefs, which are available to qualifying Investors on a maximum investment of £200,000 per individual in the 2018/19 tax year, are set out below:

• Income tax relief at 30% of the amount subscribed, provided the VCT shares are held for at least five years. Relief is restricted to the amount which reduces the investor's income tax liability to nil;
• Tax-free dividends and capital distributions from a VCT; and
• Capital gains tax exemption on any gains arising on the disposal of VCT shares.

All venture capital investments are incorporated in England and Wales.

Investment strategy

The Companies seek to invest in investee companies they believe are materially de-risked and will provide Shareholders with a reliable source of tax free income and maximise the potential for capital preservation. The criteria that investee companies will need to meet will include:

• products or services with business models which are cash generative;
• a well-defined business plan and ability to demonstrate strong demand for its products and services;
• adequate capital resources or access to further resources to achieve the targets set out in its business plan; and
• a clear exit strategy and plan.

Share buyback policy

Subject to sufficient liquidity being available, and compliance with the rules of the London Stock Exchange and the UK Listing Authority, as well as applicable VCT legislation, it is intended that each of the Companies will, from time to time, make market purchases of its own Shares that become available in the market at a price equivalent to a discount, as determined by the Boards from the time-to-time, to the most recently published NAV

Shareholders should note, however, that the Companies cannot buy Shares directly from Shareholders and that the implementation of a buyback policy through a market maker may result in the price paid by the Companies not being the same price at which Shareholders are able to sell shares. This may result, in some cases, for instance during a closed period, in a price being offered which is materially below that of the Companies' most recently published NAV.

Life of the Companies

A resolution will be put to Shareholders at the annual general meetings due to take place in 2021 (and, thereafter, at five yearly intervals) on whether they wish to wind up the Companies or whether the Companies should continue as VCTs. Should the Shareholders wish to wind up the Companies, then the Boards will draw up proposals for the liquidation, reconstruction or reorganisation of the Companies. Any such proposals would be mindful of the five-year holding period for Shareholders investing in the Offers.

Structure of the A Shares

To give effect to the Performance Incentive described below, each Investor will receive one A Share for every Ordinary Share subscribed for under the Offers.

At the close of the Offers, A Shares will be allotted to members of the Advisory Team at a subscription price of 0.1p per A Shares such that the number of Advisory Team A Shares is equal to one third of the total A Shares in issue in each Company. At full subscription, this is estimated to be 12,941,208 A Shares in the case of VCT1 and 13,001,266 A Shares in the case of VCT2 after the new allotments.

When the Performance Incentive hurdles described below are met, dividends will be declared in respect of the A Shares. The members of the Advisory Team will receive A Share dividends by virtue of their holding of A Shares, which will represent the Performance Incentive. Since the A Shares are eligible VCT shares, income tax relief is available at 30% of the amount subscribed (provided the A Shares are held for at least five years) and all gains and distributions can be made free of tax.

Advisory arrangements and costs

Annual fees

The Annual Running Costs of each of the Companies are capped at 3.0% of its Net Assets; any excess will either be paid by the Investment Adviser or refunded by way of a reduction to the Investment Adviser's fee.

Annual Running Costs include, inter alia, Directors' fees, fees for audit and taxation advice, registrar's fees, costs of communicating with Shareholders and all the annual fees payable to the Investment Adviser, any annual trail commission payable for execution-only subscriptions (but will exclude any exceptional and extraordinary costs).

Under the terms of an investment advisory agreement entered into between each of the Companies and the Investment Adviser, the Investment Adviser is paid by each of the Companies an annual investment adviser fee of 1.4%, payable quarterly in advance based on the Net Assets of each of the Companies until 7 November 2018 and, thereafter, 1.15% payable quarterly in advance based on the Net Assets of each of the Companies.

Under the terms of an administration agreement entered into between each of the Companies and Downing, Downing is paid by each of the Companies an administration fee of £40,000 per annum for administering each of the Companies.

All arrangement, syndication, monitoring or directors' fees payable in respect of an investment are retained by the Investment Adviser for its own benefit. It is intended that the investment advisory fees payable by each of the Companies to the Investment Adviser will be allocated at least 25% to revenue and up to 75% to capital, in line with the Boards' expectations of the long term returns to Shareholders.

Performance Incentive

As is customary in the venture capital industry, the Advisory Team will be entitled to receive a performancerelated incentive based upon returns to Shareholders. The amount of the Performance Incentive payable is based wholly on the NAV of the Shares and on the payment of dividends per Ordinary Share per annum:

• Up to the "dividend hurdle" of 5.0p per Ordinary Share per annum, the Advisory Team will receive approximately 0.033% of any dividends payable. Once the "dividend hurdle" is exceeded, the Advisory Team will be entitled to receive approximately 20% of any excess, and if annual dividends exceed 10.0p per Ordinary Share, the Advisory Team will be entitled to receive approximately 30% of any excess above 10.0p. The aggregate NAV of one Ordinary Share and one A Share must be at least 100p for the Performance Incentive to be paid. The entitlements in respect of dividend payments are illustrated in the table below:

Annual Dividend	Ordinary Share Proportion	A Share Proportion (deducting Advisory Team A Shares)	Dividend due to Shareholders (i.e. non-Advisory Team)	Advisory Team A Share Dividend (Estimated*)
4p	3.996p	0.0027p	3.9987p	0.0013p
8p	6.195p	1.2033p	7.3983p	0.6017p
12p	7.195p	3.2033p	10.3983p	1.6017p

* Assuming that the Advisory Team A Shares represent one third of the total A Shares in issue.

The Advisory Team A Shares at the close of the Offers will be one third of the total A Shares in issue.

Launch costs and commission

The Investment Adviser will be paid a Promoter's Fee of 4.0% of the gross proceeds of the Offers, where it is required to pay commission to an intermediary, and 2.0% of the gross proceeds of the Offers where no commission is payable. The Investment Adviser will be responsible for paying all costs associated with the Offers, including any commissions relating to execution-only transactions (excluding trail commission), and listing expenses.

Adviser Charges

Adviser Charges are the fees agreed between intermediaries and Investors for advice and related services. Commission is not permitted to be paid to intermediaries who provide a personal recommendation to UK retail clients on investments in VCTs. Instead of commission being paid by either Company, a fee will usually be agreed between the intermediary and Investor for the advice and related services. This fee can either be paid directly by the Investor to the intermediary, or, if it is an initial one-off fee, the payment of such fee may be facilitated by the Companies. Ongoing fees to intermediaries will not be facilitated by the Companies. If the payment of the Adviser Charge is to be facilitated by the Companies, then the Investor is required to specify the amount of the charge on the Application Form (see Box 4). The Investor will be issued fewer New Shares (to the equivalent value of the Adviser Charge) through the pricing formula set out below. The Adviser Charge is inclusive of VAT, where applicable.

Commission

Commission may be payable where there is an executiononly transaction and no advice has been provided by the intermediary to the Investor, or where the intermediary has demonstrated to Gresham House that the Investor is a professional client of the intermediary. Those intermediaries who are permitted to receive commission will usually receive an initial commission of 3.0% of the amount invested by their clients under the Offers and no trail commission. Initial commission will be payable by Gresham House out of its fees. Annual trail commission will be borne by the relevant Company.

An intermediary who is entitled to commission may agree to waive all or part of the initial commission in respect of an application for New Shares under the Offers. If this is the case, additional New Shares will be allotted to the Investor at the Offer Price and the waived commission will be used to satisfy the subscription price of such additional New Shares.

Pricing Formula

The number of New Shares to be issued to each Applicant will be calculated based on the Pricing Formula set out below. A premium of 5% will be added to the latest published NAV and this value grossed up for Promoter Fees and Adviser Charges.

The number of New Shares to be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole New Share.

Number of Ordinary	= Amount subscribed, less:	÷ latest published NAV, adjusted as appropriate for dividends2 x 1.05
Shares	(i) Promoter's Fee 1 and (ii) Adviser Charge (if any)
Number of A Shares	= 1 A Share for each Ordinary Share

¹ less any commission waived by intermediaries (where applicable)

² an adjustment will be made to deduct any dividends which have passed their ex-div date or been paid since the NAV date

Pricing examples

These are based on a subscription under the First Offers in each of the Companies of £10,000; the latest published NAVs (unaudited as at 31 March 2018) of 114.5p per VCT1 Share and 113.5p per VCT2 Share; and the Promoter's Fee of 4.0% and 2.0%.

(In February 2018, the Companies purchased 1.8 million VCT1 Ordinary and A Shares and 2.2 million VCT2 Ordinary and A Shares at a discount of approximately 2.0% to the latest published NAVs. The Boards do not consider that these transactions have had a material impact on the respective NAVs.)

VCT1 New Shares	Issue price (for one Ordinary and one A Share)
(i) Promoter's Fee (commission payable) of 4.0% = £400 Number of VCT1 Ordinary Shares = (10,000 - 400 - 0) ÷ (114.5 x 1.05) = 7,985 Number of VCT1 A Shares = 7,985	125.23p
(ii) Promoter's Fee (advised) of 2.0% = £200 Example Adviser Charge = £225 Number of VCT1 Ordinary Shares = (10,000 - 200 - 225) ÷ (114.5 x 1.05) = 7,964 Number of VCT1 A Shares = 7,964	125.57p
(iii) Promoter's Fee (advised) of 2.0% = £200 Example Adviser Charge = £400 Number of VCT1 Ordinary Shares = (10,000 - 200 - 400) ÷ (114.5 x 1.05) = 7,818 Number of VCT1 A Shares = 7,818	127.91p
VCT2 New Shares
(i) Promoter's Fee (commission payable) of 4.0% = £400 Number of VCT2 Ordinary Shares = (10,000 - 400 - 0) ÷ (113.5 x 1.05) = 8,055 Number of VCT2 A Shares = 8,055	124.15p
(ii) Promoter's Fee (advised) of 2.0% = £200 Example Adviser Charge = £225 Number of VCT2 Ordinary Shares = (10,000 - 200 - 225) ÷ (113.5 x 1.05) = 8,034 Number of VCT2 A Shares = 8,034	124.47p
(iii) Promoter's Fee (advised) of 2.0% = £200 Example Adviser Charge = £400 Number of VCT2 Ordinary Shares = (10,000 - 200 - 400) ÷ (113.5 x 1.05) = 7,887 Number of VCT2 A Shares = 7,887	126.79p

It should be noted that the example Adviser Charges set out above have been provided to illustrate the pricing of the Offers and should not be considered as a recommendation as to the appropriate levels of Adviser Charges.

Income tax relief should be available on the total amount subscribed, subject to VCT Regulations and personal circumstances, which in each of the above examples would be £3,000 (£10,000 at 30%).

The number of New Shares issued under the Offers will be affected by a "blended" issue cost, because Applicants will have a different issue cost attributable to their application for New Shares depending upon whether their application is received directly, through an execution only broker or through an intermediary providing advice.

Directors' interest in the proposed transaction

Stuart Knight, a director of VCT1, is a partner of Haibun Partners LLP ("Haibun"). Matthew Evans, a director of

VCT2 is a partner of CH1 Investment Partners LLP ("CH1"). Haibun and CH1 are FCA regulated financial intermediaries. It is anticipated that Haibun and CH1 will introduce investors to the Companies in respect of the Offers, for which they will receive commission or adviser charges based on the standard terms.

Minimum and maximum subscription

The minimum investment per Applicant in either of the Companies under the First Offers is £10,000 and the minimum investment per Applicant in either of the Companies under the Second Offers is £100,000. Applications in excess of £10,000, in respect of the First Offers, and in excess of £100,000 in respect of the Second Offers, may be made for any higher amount, in multiples of £1,000, subject to availability. The maximum investment per Applicant in any of the Offers is £200,000 per tax year, since tax reliefs are only available on a

maximum investment of £200,000 per individual in any one tax year. A husband and wife can each invest up to £200,000 in any one tax year.

PART III - TAXATION

Tax position of Investors

The following is only a summary of the law concerning the tax position of individual investors in VCTs. Potential Investors who are in any doubt about the taxation consequences of investing in the Companies are recommended to consult an appropriate professional adviser.

Tax reliefs

The tax reliefs set out below are available to individuals aged 18 or over who subscribe for New Shares under the Offers. Whilst there is no specific limit on the amount of an individual's acquisition of shares in a VCT, tax reliefs will only be given to the extent that the total of an individual's subscriptions or other acquisitions of shares in VCTs in any tax year do not exceed £200,000. Investors who intend to invest more than £200,000 in VCTs in any one tax year should seek professional advice.

(a) Income tax relief

(i) Relief from income tax on investment

Income tax relief at the rate of 30% will be available on subscriptions for up to a maximum of £200,000 in any tax year. This relief is limited to the amount which reduces the Investor's income tax liability to £nil.

The effect of this relief for an Investor subscribing £10,000 for New Shares is shown below:

	No VCT tax relief	30% income tax relief
Initial investment	£10,000	£10,000
30% income tax relief	-	(£3,000)
Effective investment cost	£10,000	£7,000

Tax relief on subscriptions for shares in a VCT is restricted where, within six months (before or after) of that subscription, the investor had disposed of shares in the same VCT. In some circumstances relief can be restricted if the subscription and disposal are of shares in two different VCTs which merge. Investments to be used as security for or financed by loans may not qualify for relief, depending on the circumstances.

(ii) Dividend relief

An investor who acquires VCT shares in a given tax year with a value of up to £200,000 will not be liable to income tax on dividends paid by the VCT in respect of those shares.

(iii) Purchasers in the market

An individual purchaser of existing VCT shares in the market will be entitled to claim dividend relief (as described in paragraph (a) (ii) above), however income tax relief at 30% of the cost of the investment (as described in paragraph (a) (i) above) may not be claimed.

(iv) Withdrawal of relief

Relief from income tax on a subscription for VCT shares will be withdrawn if the VCT shares are disposed of (other than between spouses) within five years of issue or if the VCT loses its approval within this period.

(b) Capital gains tax relief

(i) Relief from capital gains tax on the disposal of of shares

A disposal by an Investor of their New Shares will give rise to neither a chargeable gain nor an allowable loss for the purposes of UK capital gains tax. The relief is limited to the disposal of VCT shares acquired within the limit of £200,000 for any tax year.

(ii) Purchasers in the market

An individual purchaser of New Shares in the market will be entitled to claim relief from capital gains tax on disposal (as described in paragraph (b) (i) above).

Obtaining tax reliefs

The Companies will provide to each Investor a certificate which the Investor may use to claim income tax relief, either by obtaining from HMRC an adjustment to their tax coding under the PAYE system or by waiting until the end of the tax year and using their tax return to claim relief.

Investors not resident in the UK

Investors not resident in the UK should seek professional advice as to the consequences of making an investment in a VCT as they may be subject to tax in other jurisdictions as well as in the UK.

Withholding taxation

No taxation will be withheld at source on any income arising from the New Shares and the Companies assume no responsibility for such withholding.

Withdrawal of approval

If a company which has been granted approval as a VCT subsequently fails to comply with the conditions for approval, approval as a VCT may be withdrawn or treated as never having been granted. In these circumstances, relief from income tax on the initial investment is repayable unless loss of approval occurs more than five years after the issue of the relevant VCT shares. In addition, relief ceases to be available on any dividend paid in respect of profits or gains in any accounting period ending after the loss of VCT status, and whilst any gains on the VCT

shares up to the date of the loss of VCT status will be exempt, gains thereafter will be taxable.

VCT status will be withdrawn if, in respect of shares issued on or after 6 April 2014, a dividend is paid (or other forms of distribution or payments are made to investors) from the capital received by the VCT from that issue within three years of the end of the accounting period in which shares were issued to investors.

Conditions to be met by Venture Capital Trusts

Qualification as a VCT

To qualify as a VCT, a company must be approved as such by HMRC. To obtain such approval it must:

• a. not be a close company;
• b. have each class of its ordinary share capital quoted on a regulated market in the EU or European Economic Area;
• c. derive its income wholly or mainly from shares or securities;
• d. have at least 70% (80% from 1 October 2019 for this VCT) by value of its investments in shares or securities in Qualifying Investments;
• e. for investments made before 6 April 2018 from funds raised before 6 April 2011, have at least 30% by value of Qualifying Investments in "eligible shares" carrying no preferential rights to dividends or assets on a winding up, or any rights to redemption;
• f. for funds raised after 5 April 2011 and for investments made after 5 April 2018, have at least 70% by value of Qualifying Investments in "eligible shares" carrying no preferential rights to assets on a winding up, or any rights to redemption, but which may have certain preferential rights to dividends;
• g. for shares issued on or after 1 October 2018, at least 30% of the funds raised will need to be invested in Qualifying Investments by the anniversary of the end of the accounting period in which the shares were issued;
• h. not have more than 15% by value of its investments in a single company (other than a VCT or a company which would, if its shares were listed, qualify as a VCT);
• i. not retain more than 15% of its income derived from shares and securities in any accounting period;

• j. not make an investment in a company which causes that company to receive more than £5 million (£10 million for a Knowledge Intensive Company) of Risk Finance State Aid (including from VCTs) in the twelve months ending on the date of the investment, or a total of more than £12 million (£20 million if the company is deemed to be a Knowledge Intensive Company) of Risk Finance State Aid (including from VCTs) over the company's lifetime. A subsequent acquisition by the company, of another company that has previously received Risk Finance State Aid, can cause the lifetime limit to be exceeded;

• k. not make an investment in a company whose first commercial sale was more than 7 years prior to date of investment, except where previous Risk Finance State Aid was received by the company within 7 years (10 years for a Knowledge Intensive Company) or where the company is entering a new market and a turnover test is satisfied;

• l. not use the funds invested into a company for acquiring shares or another existing business or trade;
• m. not make a prohibited non-Qualifying Investment; and
• n. in relation to shares issued by a VCT on or after 6 April 2014, not return to shareholders any of the capital received by the VCT in relation to those shares issued before the third anniversary of the end of the accounting period during which the subscription for those shares occurs.

Qualifying Investments

A Qualifying Investment consists of shares or securities first issued to the VCT (and held by it ever since) by a company satisfying certain conditions. The conditions are detailed but include that the company must be a Qualifying Company, have gross assets not exceeding £15 million immediately before and £16 million immediately after the investment, apply the money raised for the purposes of a Qualifying Trade within certain time periods and not be controlled by another company. In any twelve month period the company can receive no more than £5 million (£10 million for a Knowledge Intensive Company) of Risk Finance State Aid including from VCTs and the Enterprise Investment Scheme. The company must have fewer than 250 full time (or equivalent) employees at the time of making the investment (500 in the case of a Knowledge Intensive Company). The company cannot receive more than £12 million (£20 million if the company is deemed to be a Knowledge Intensive Company) of Risk Finance State Aid (including from VCTs) over the company's lifetime. The company's first commercial sale must be no more than 7 years before the VCT's investment (10 years for a Knowledge Intensive Company), except where previous Risk Finance State Aid was received by the company within 7 years or where the company is entering a new market and a turnover test is satisfied. Funds received from an investment by a VCT cannot be used to acquire shares or another existing business or trade.

An investment will only be a Qualifying Investment where at least 10% of the total investment in any single company or group is in "eligible shares" as defined in (e) and (f) above.

Qualifying Companies

A Qualifying Company must be unquoted (for VCT purposes this includes companies whose shares are traded on the NEX Exchange and the Alternative Investment Market) and must carry on a Qualifying Trade. For this purpose, certain activities are excluded (such as dealing in land or shares or providing financial services). The Qualifying Trade must either be carried on by, or be intended to be carried on by, the Qualifying Company or by a Relevant Qualifying Subsidiary (see below) at the time of the issue of shares or securities to the VCT (and at all times thereafter). Qualifying Companies need not be UK resident but must have a permanent establishment in the UK. A company intending to carry on a Qualifying Trade must begin to trade within two years of the issue of shares or securities to the VCT and continue it thereafter.

A Qualifying Company may have no subsidiaries other than Qualifying Subsidiaries which must be more than 50% owned.

A Relevant Qualifying Subsidiary can be a 90% directly held subsidiary of the company invested in, its wholly owned subsidiary, or a 90% held subsidiary of a wholly owned subsidiary.

Approval as a VCT

A VCT must be approved at all times by HMRC. Approval has effect from the time specified in the approval.

A VCT cannot be approved unless the tests detailed above are met throughout the most recent complete accounting period of the VCT and HMRC is satisfied that they will be met in relation to the accounting period of the VCT which is current when the application is made. However, to facilitate the launch of a VCT, HMRC may approve a VCT notwithstanding that certain of the tests are not met at the time of application, provided HMRC is satisfied that the tests will be met within certain time limits. In particular, in the case of the tests described at (d), (e) and (f) under the heading "Qualification as a VCT" above, approval may be given if HMRC is satisfied that these will be met throughout an accounting period of the VCT beginning no more than three years after the date on which approval takes effect.

The Directors intend to conduct the affairs of the Companies so that they satisfy the conditions for approval as a VCT and that such approval will be maintained. HMRC has granted each of the Companies approval as a VCT under section 274 ITA. The Companies intend to comply with section 274 ITA and have retained Philip Hare and Associates LLP to advise them on VCT taxation matters.

Withdrawal of approval

Approval of a VCT may be withdrawn by HMRC if the various tests set out above are not satisfied. Withdrawal of approval generally has effect from the time when notice is given to the VCT but, in relation to capital gains of the VCT only, can be backdated to not earlier than the first day of the accounting period commencing immediately after the last accounting period of the VCT in which all of the tests were satisfied.

The above is only a summary of the conditions to be satisfied in order for a company to be treated as a VCT.
