WITAN INVESTMENT TRUST PLC

Payment of a First 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 2015 (in June, September and December) will, in the absence of unforeseen circumstances, be paid at a rate of 3.85 pence per share, being one quarter of the full year payment for 2014 (15.4 pence).  The fourth payment (in March 2016) 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 first interim dividend of 3.85 pence per ordinary share of 25 pence, in respect of the year ending 31 December 2015, will be paid on Thursday 18 June 2015 to shareholders registered at the close of business on Friday 22 May 2015 (ex-dividend date Thursday 21 May 2015).
