Results of General Meeting

Baillie Gifford China Growth Trust plc (the "Company") is pleased to announce that at a general meeting of the Company held earlier today the resolutions to allot ordinary shares in the capital of the Company and to disapply the statutory pre-emption rights on the allotment or sale of treasury shares, as set out in the Circular dated 9 November 2020, were duly approved by shareholders.

Details of the proxy votes lodged before the general meeting, which should be read alongside the notice contained in the Circular will be available shortly at www.bailliegiffordchinagrowthtrust.com .

The Board notes the significant vote against Resolution 2. As explained fully in the Circular, Resolution 2 sought approval to renew the Company's shareholder authority to issue further Ordinary Shares on a non pre-emptive basis prior to the Company's next annual general meeting. The Directors will only use the authority to disapply pre-emption rights and issue Ordinary Shares at a premium to NAV. The Company will be contacting relevant shareholders to re-iterate the context in which the Resolution was proposed.
