The Company's target dividend for the quarter ended 30 June 2006 is not less than €0.26 per share. The dividend will be payable on 31 August 2006 to shareholders of record on 11 August 2006. The Company continues to evaluate and undertake primary target investments and the Company's investment manager, Cheyne Capital Management Limited, believes that the pipeline of investment opportunities for the Company remains robust. The Company retains sufficient capital and financing flexibility to meet its investment objective and policies in the medium term. For further information please contact: Investor Relations: Caroline Villiers +44 (0) 20 7153 1539 Cheyne Capital: Syd Hanna +44 (0) 20 7031 7423 About the Company: Queen's Walk Investment Limited is a Guernsey-incorporated investment company listed on the London Stock Exchange. The Company's investment objective is to preserve capital and to provide stable returns to shareholders in the form of quarterly dividends. To achieve this, Queen's Walk invests primarily in a diversified portfolio of subordinated tranches of asset backed securities, including the unrated 'equity' or 'first loss' residual income position typically retained by the banks or other financial institutions which have originated the loan assets that collateralise a securitisation transaction. The Company makes such investments where its investment manager, Cheyne Capital Management Limited, considers the coupon or cashflows from the investment to be attractive relative to the credit exposure of the underlying asset collateral. The Company believes that its investment focus provides equity investors with exposure to a relatively new investment opportunity in this asset class. * * * The content of this announcement includes statements that are, or may deemed to be, 'forward-looking statements'.
