HALF-YEARLY FINANCIAL REPORT
For the period from incorporation on 21 February 2018 to 30 June
2018
INTERIM MANAGEMENT REPORT
Overview and important events
RM ZDP plc (the "Company") was incorporated in England and Wales
on 21 February 2018. The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of RM
Secured Direct Lending plc ("RMDL") and was incorporated for the
sole purpose of issuing the ZDP Shares, described in note 6 to the
financial statements.
The non-executive directors of the Company are Norman Crighton,
Guy Heald and Marlene Wood who also act as directors of RMDL. The
Directors have overall responsibility for the Company's activities.
The Directors have delegated certain functions to other parties,
such as the AIFM, the Administrator and the Registrar.
On 3 April 2018, 10,869,950 ZDP shares were issued and admitted
to trading on the standard segment of the Official List of the
London Stock Exchange. The Company has made a loan of the gross
proceeds raised from the issue of the ZDP Shares to RMDL pursuant
to the ZDP Loan Agreement between the Company and RMDL. The
Company's only material financial obligations are in respect of the
ZDP Shares. Its only material assets are the ZDP Loan and the
obligation of RMDL, under the Undertaking between RMDL and the
Company, to put the Company in a position to meet its obligations
in respect of the ZDP Shares and to pay its operating expenses.
Subject to the Companies Act, on a return of capital, on a
winding-up or otherwise, ZDP Shareholders will be entitled to
receive an amount equal to the Initial Capital Entitlement of 100
pence per ZDP Share, increased at such daily accrual rate as
compounds annually to give a Final Capital Entitlement of 110.91
pence per ZDP Share at the ZDP Repayment Date of 6 April 2021,
which is equivalent to a Redemption Yield of 3.5 per cent. per
annum (compounded annually).
As at 30 June 2018 the accrued capital entitlement per ZDP Share
was 100.86p and the share price per ZDP Share was 101.5p.
Objective
The objective of the Company is to meet the final capital
entitlement of the ZDP Shares at the ZDP Repayment Date.
Principal risks and uncertainties
The principal risk and uncertainties faced by the Company arise
from the Loan Agreement with RMDL and the ability of RMDL to meet
its obligations under the Loan Agreement and the Undertaking. In
order to mitigate these risks, there are various restrictions
applicable to RMDL in the Loan Agreement and the Undertaking. In
addition, under the Investment Policy of RMDL, there is a limit
that gearing represented by borrowings, including any obligations
owed by RMDL in respect of an issue of zero dividend preference
shares (whether issued by RMDL or any other member of its group) or
any third-party borrowings, will not, in aggregate, exceed 20 per
cent. of the net asset value of RMDL calculated at the time of
drawdown. The unaudited Gross Assets of RMDL at 30 June 2018 were
GBP107.6 million.
Related party transactions
Details of related party transactions are provided in the notes
to the financial statements.

Notes to the unaudited financial statements
1. General information
RM ZDP plc ("the Company" or "ZDP") was incorporated in England
and Wales on 21 February 2018, with registered number 11217952
as a public company limited by shares under the Companies
Act. The Company commenced its operations on 3 April 2018.
2. Significant accounting policies
The principal accounting policies followed by the Company
are set out below:
(a) Basis of accounting
The condensed interim financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and
the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules ('DTRs') of
the UK's Financial Conduct Authority. They do not include
all of the information required for full annual financial
statements and have been prepared on the historical cost basis.
The interim financial statements have been prepared on a going
concern basis. The Company relies on its parent company's
ability to repay the Loan and in its capacity as counterparty
to the Deed of Undertaking (as detailed in note 3) to continue
in operation as a going concern.
The functional and presentational currency of the Company
is Sterling (GBP).
(b) Financial instruments at amortised cost
Loan and receivables and Zero Dividend Preference Shares (ZDP
Shares)
The loan made by the Company to its parent company and the
ZDP Shares were initially recognised at cost and are subsequently
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate
method.
Financial assets are assessed for impairment at each reporting
date.
(c) Income
Interest income is recognised on an accruals basis in the
Statement of Comprehensive Income on a time-apportioned basis
using the effective interest rate method.
(d) Expenses
All expenses are accounted for on an accruals basis and recognised
in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
(e) Taxation
The charge for taxation is based upon the net return for the
period using the applicable UK corporation tax rate for the
reporting period. It takes into account both deductible and
non-deductible income and expenses incurred in the reporting
period. Deferred taxation will be recognised as an asset or
a liability if transactions have occurred at the initial reporting
date that give rise to an obligation to pay more taxation
in the future, or a right to pay less taxation in the future.
An asset will not be recognised to the extent that the transfer
of economic benefit is uncertain.
(f) Estimates and assumptions
The preparation of financial statements requires the Directors
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the application
of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, income and expenses. Although these estimates
are based on management's best knowledge of current facts,
circumstances and, to some extent, future events and actions,
the Company's actual results may ultimately differ from those
estimates, possibly significantly.

Intercompany Loan Agreement
The ZDP Loan Agreement was entered into immediately prior
to Admission, between the Company (as lender) and RMDL (as
borrower) pursuant to which, immediately following Admission,
the Company lent RMDL the Gross ZDP Placing Proceeds, which
has been applied by RMDL towards making investments in accordance
with its Investment Policy and for working capital purposes.
The ZDP Loan Agreement provides that, interest will accrue
on the ZDP Loan daily at a rate of 2% per annum, compounded
annually on each anniversary of Admission of the ZDP Shares
and will be rolled up and paid to the Company along with repayment
of the principal amount of the ZDP Loan on the date falling
2 Business Days before the ZDP Repayment Date of 6 April 2021,
provided that the ZDP Loan shall become repayable by the Company
immediately upon the passing of a Winding-Up Resolution, a
ZDP Recommended Resolution or a ZDP Reconstruction Resolution.
Deed of Undertaking
The Undertaking was entered into immediately prior to Admission,
between the Company (as beneficiary) and RMDL (as grantor)
pursuant to which, to the extent that the Final Capital Entitlement
multiplied by the number of outstanding ZDP Shares as at the
ZDP Repayment Date (or, if earlier, the accrued capital entitlement
multiplied by the number of outstanding ZDP Shares following
the date on which a Winding-Up Resolution is approved) exceeds
the aggregate principal amount and accrued interest due from
RMDL to the Company pursuant to the ZDP Loan Agreement as
at the ZDP Repayment Date (the "Additional Funding Requirement"),
RMDL shall: (i) subscribe an amount equal to or greater than
the Additional Funding Requirement for Subsidiary Ordinary
Shares (the "Additional Shares"); or (ii) make a capital contribution
or gift or otherwise pay an amount equal to or greater than
(where rounding is required) the Additional Funding Requirement.
Where applicable, the Additional Shares may be Subsidiary
Ordinary Shares or such other class of shares in the Company
as is agreed between the Company and RMDL.
During the period to 30 June 2018, further to its initial
subscription for Ordinary Shares, RMDL contributed GBP38,000
to the Company.

Closing balance 10,963
The ZDP Shares are recorded as a liability in the financial
statements and are measured at amortised cost. Based on the
share price of the ZDP Shares of 101.5p per ZDP Share at 30
June 2018, the fair value of the ZDP Shares was GBP11,033,000.
On 3 April 2018, the Company issued 10,869,950 ZDP Shares
of a nominal value of 1 pence each at a placing price of 100
pence each to raise gross proceeds of GBP10,869,950, which
were allotted and fully paid up.
Rights attaching to the ZDP Shares
The ZDP Shares carry no right to receive dividends or other
distributions out of revenue or any other profits of the Company.
The ZDP Shares will have a life of 3 years and, on that basis,
a Final Capital Entitlement of 110.91 pence per ZDP Share
on the ZDP Repayment Date of 6 April 2021, equivalent to a
Redemption Yield of 3.5% per annum (compounded annually) on
the Issue Price.
Under the obligations of ZDP Loan Agreement, the Ordinary
Shares and the C Shares of RMDL rank behind the ZDP Shares.
Voting rights of ZDP Shares
The ZDP Shareholders shall have the right to receive notice
of all general meetings of the Company for information purposes,
but shall have no right to attend or vote at any such meeting
of the Company. For the avoidance of doubt:
-- any resolution to alter, modify or abrogate the special
rights or privileges attached to the ZDP Shares shall require
separate class consent (by special resolution) at a class
meeting of ZDP Shareholders convened and held in accordance
with the ZDP Articles (a "ZDP Class Consent"); and
-- any ZDP Recommended Resolution or any resolution to approve
a, ZDP Reconstruction Proposal (if required) shall only be
approved by Ordinary Shareholders of the Company provided
they have first been approved by way of a ZDP Class Consent.
