WITAN INVESTMENT TRUST PLC

Payment of a Third Interim Dividend

In accordance with its normal policy, the Company expects to pay quarterly interim dividends each year in March, June, September and December.  The Company has previously indicated that the first three payments in respect of 2019 (in June, September and December) will, in the absence of unforeseen circumstances, be paid at a rate of 1.175 pence per share, being one quarter of the full year payment for 2018 (4.7 pence, as adjusted for the five for one share sub-division effective on 28 May 2019).  The fourth payment (in March 2020) will be a balancing amount, reflecting the difference between the three quarterly dividends already paid and the payment decided for the full year.

Accordingly, the Company hereby announces that a third interim dividend of 1.175 pence per ordinary share of 5 pence, in respect of the year ending 31 December 2019, will be paid on Wednesday 18 December 2019 to shareholders registered at the close of business on Friday 22 November 2019 (ex-dividend date Thursday 21 November 2019).
