Second Interim Dividend for the year ending 30 September 2024

The Board of abrdn Diversified Income and Growth plc (the "Company") announces that it is declaring an interim dividend of 1.95 pence per share on the Ordinary shares of the Company.

The interim dividend will be paid on 24 October 2024 to shareholders on the register on 27 September 2024. The ex-dividend date is 26 September 2024.

The last date for receipt of mandate instructions for those shareholders who wish to join the Dividend Reinvestment Plan is 4 October 2024.

In accordance with the circular to shareholders published by the Company on 17 June 2024, the Board intends to continue to pay a sufficient level of dividend to ensure that the Company will not retain more than 15 per cent. of its income in an accounting period so as to maintain the Company's investment trust status during the managed wind-down.

Revenue available to the Company will decrease as the portfolio assets are realised and there can be no guarantee as to the payment, quantum, or timing of dividends during the managed wind-down process. However, it is expected that, at a minimum, the Company will declare a dividend each September, normally payable in October, to maintain investment trust status.
