Further to the publication of the circular and prospectus by JPMorgan UK Smaller Companies Investment Trust plc ('the Company') earlier today in relation to the proposed combination of the Company with JPMorgan Mid Cap Investment Trust plc ('JMF') (the 'Transaction'), the Board announces that the Company intends to pay a conditional interim dividend (the 'Pre-Completion Dividend') prior to adopting the enhanced dividend policy, set out in more detail in the circular of the Company, following the successful completion of the Transaction.

The Pre-Completion Dividend will be paid out in cash and the dividend reinvestment programme arrangement will not apply.
