For immediate release

                                                                  11 August 2006


The Board of Manchester & London Investment Trust PLC ('MLIT') announces the
result of the Placing and Offer for Subscription following the passing of the
resolutions at the Extraordinary General meeting today.

The fully diluted Net Asset Value per ordinary share at close of business on 9
August 2006 was 356.93p.  The issue price of the New Ordinary Shares is
321.2338p per New Ordinary Share (being a discount of 10% to the Net Asset Value
at that date).

Up to 4,799,060 New Ordinary Shares were capable of being issued under the
Placing and Offer for Subscription of which a total of 3,468,658 New Ordinary
Shares have been allotted comprising: 601,587 New Ordinary Shares to applicants
under the Offer for Subscription and 2,867,071 New Ordinary Shares to other
investors.

Following the passing of the resolutions at the Extraordinary General Meeting
held earlier today, the Board of MLIT has allotted the New Ordinary Shares,
subject only to their admission to Listing and to trading on London Stock
Exchange plc's market for listed securities (which is expected to be effected by
the issue of a dealing notice on 14 August 2006). The allotment of 2,977,680
Ordinary Shares on conversion of 744,420 Preference Shares also becomes
effective on the issue of the dealing notice. Application has been made to the
UK Listing Authority and to London Stock Exchange plc to admit the ordinary
shares to be issued on conversion of the preference shares and the New Ordinary
Shares to be issued pursuant to the Placing and Offer for Subscription to
Listing and trading respectively.


The issue statistics are therefore as follows:

Issue price                                                           321.2338p

                                                                    10,477,680

The Ordinary Shares (ISIN: GB0002258472) and the New Ordinary Shares (ISIN:
GB00B17N2C42) rank pari passu with each other in all respects, except that the
Ordinary Shares rank for the dividend payable in respect of the six months ended
31 July 2006 and the New Ordinary Shares do not.

Expected timetable                                                          2006

The allotment of Ordinary Shares on conversion of 744,420 Preference Shares will
result in there being no Preference Shares in issue.

Manchester & Metropolitan Investment Limited, a company controlled by Brian
Sheppard (a director of MLIT who also holds 4,430 Ordinary Shares) and his son,
Mark Sheppard holds all the issued Preference Shares.  Following the conversion
of 744,420 Preference Shares and the issue of the New Ordinary Shares Manchester
& Metropolitan Investment Limited will hold 7,633,940 Ordinary Shares
representing 54.7% of the enlarged issued ordinary share capital.  The other
directors' shareholdings will not change.
