Issue of Equity & Total Voting Rights

ALBION TECHNOLOGY & GENERAL VCT PLC

The first allotment for the tax year 5 April 2014, of New Ordinary shares of nominal value 1 penny per share in Albion Technology & General VCT PLC (the "Company") under the Albion VCTs Top Up Offers 2013/2014 (the "Offers"), (which was launched on 6 November 2013) took place on 31 January 2014.

Pursuant to the Offer Document, the Company offered a 1% discount on issue costs to existing shareholders and 0.5% discount on issue costs to new subscribers. The cost of these discounts is being borne by the Manager, Albion Ventures LLP. The Company has received applications for 495,432 New Ordinary shares at an issue price of 84.1 pence per share from existing shareholders, 605,375 New Ordinary shares at an issue price of 84.6 pence per share for new subscribers and a further 18,007 New Ordinary shares at an issue price of 83.3 pence per share. The net proceeds for this allotment by the Company are approximately £923,000.

Application has been made to the Financial Conduct Authority for 1,118,814 New Ordinary shares to be admitted to the Official List and to the London Stock Exchange for the New Ordinary shares to be admitted to trading on the London Stock Exchange's market for listed securities.

It is expected that Admission will become effective, and that dealings in the shares will commence on or before, 8.00 a.m. on 4 February 2014. The record date for the dividend being paid of 1.25 pence per share on 31 January 2014 was 10 January 2014 and as a result, the New Ordinary shares would not qualify for this dividend.

As at this first closing of the Albion VCTs Top Up Offers 2013/2014 on 31 January 2014, the total raised under the Offers was £6m. The Offers constitute separate offers made by each of the Albion VCT's which are participating in it. The Offers will remain open until 13 June 2014 unless they are fully subscribed before this date.

Following this allotment and in conformity with the provisions of DTR 5.6, we would like to notify the market of the following:

The Company's capital as at 31 January 2014 consists of 81,175,199 Ordinary shares with a nominal value of 1 penny each. The Company holds 4,341,070 shares in Treasury.

Therefore, the total number of voting rights in the Company is 76,834,129, which may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
