EJF Investments Ltd ("EJFI" or the "Company") announces that, in accordance with its dealing code, EJF Capital Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of EJF Capital LLC (together with EJF Capital Limited, "EJF") and a "person closely associated" with EJF Investments Manager LLC, which is the Company's investment manager (the "Manager"), unconditionally agreed on 30 November 2021 to acquire 70,751 ordinary shares in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") at an average price of GBP1.285 per share from Hammad W. Khan in a private off-market transaction.
