Correction: Deployment Update (committed total correction)

This announcement corrects the total amount expected to be invested through the three deals in legal closing and the assumed total for committed capital.

Pantheon Infrastructure PLC ("PINT" or the "Company"), the listed global infrastructure fund, is pleased to announce that, in addition to the five previously announced transactions, the Company has three further transactions in legal closing that it expects to close over the coming weeks.

These transactions comprise:

· A North American electricity generation asset with a provisional investment commitment of $57m

· A North American district heating asset with a provisional investment commitment of $46m

· A North American data centre asset with a provisional investment commitment of $32m.

At current exchange rates, these investments amount to a total of £108m and would take invested, committed and in legal closing capital to £250m, or approximately 64% of IPO proceeds¹.

Further announcements will be made as each transaction completes.

The Company is hosting a webinar for analysts and institutional investors at 11am today (Friday 29 April 2022). For further details please contact TB Cardew or Investec on the contact details below.

Richard Sem, Partner at Pantheon, PINT's investment manager, commented:

"We're pleased with the momentum since the fund launched in November 2021 and excited about the potential within our growing portfolio of assets with strong defensive characteristics in sectors benefitting from growth tailwinds."

"We're delighted to see the strong progress PINT has made since its listing. The investment manager is successfully constructing a diversified portfolio of high-quality, global infrastructure assets that is well-positioned to deliver on our objective of providing investors with attractive, risk-adjusted returns."
