Placing under Placing Programme
On 8 January 2018 GCP Infra, the only UK listed fund focused
primarily on investments in UK infrastructure debt, announced
details of a placing targeting gross proceeds of c.GBP60 million
under the 2017 Placing Programme, at a Placing Price of 122.0 pence
per new Ordinary Share (the "Placing").
The Board is pleased to announce today that the Placing has been
significantly oversubscribed. Accordingly, and in light of the
investment opportunities available to the Company in the near term
and demand from investors for its shares, the Board has exercised
its discretion to increase the size of the Placing to GBP100
million through the issue of 81,967,214 new Ordinary Shares,
subject to Admission.
Applications will be made in respect of the 81,967,214 new
Ordinary Shares issued pursuant to the Placing to be admitted to
the premium segment of the Official List and to trading on the
London Stock Exchange's Main Market for listed securities
("Admission"). It is expected that Admission will become effective
and dealings in the new Ordinary Shares will commence on 16 January
2018. When issued, the new Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu
with the existing Ordinary Shares.
Following Admission, the Company's issued share capital will
consist of 873,294,056 Ordinary Shares of GBP0.01 each. With effect
from 16 January 2018, the total number of issued shares with voting
rights will be 873,294,056.

their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance
