Result of AGM

Henderson TR Pacific Inv. Trust PLC 19 April 2007 HENDERSON TR PACIFIC INVESTMENT TRUST PLC HENDERSON GLOBAL INVESTORS 19 April 2007 HENDERSON TR PACIFIC INVESTMENT TRUST PLC AGM Statement and Portfolio Information At the 20th Annual General Meeting of Henderson TR Pacific Investment Trust plc held today in London, all resolutions put to shareholders were duly passed. Since the start of the new financial year, the risks associated with the US economy have continued to grow. We continue to believe that the most likely scenario for the US is a moderation in activity and a period of gradual adjustment following a number of years of strong growth led by the consumer. Under this scenario, Asian economies should continue to do well and we would expect there to be an orderly shift from export led to more domestically focused growth. Therefore, the Board believes that there will be significant opportunities to invest in quality companies in the region and to be well placed to deliver attractive returns to investors. Notes: 1. Henderson TR Pacific Investment Trust is one of the largest investment trusts, focusing on the Pacific Region stock markets, excluding Japan and Australasia, but including India. 2. All resolutions proposed were duly passed. 3.
