                                Issue of Equity

Crown  Place VCT  PLC (the  "Company") announces  that, further  to the Dividend
Reinvestment  Scheme introduced by the Company (details of which were set out in
the  Circular  issued  to  shareholders  on 26 February 2009), the Company today
allotted  145,641 Ordinary shares of 10p each (the "New Ordinary shares") in the
capital  of the  Company.  The  New Ordinary  shares were  issued at  a price of
31.7p, comprising  the net asset value at 30 September 2011 less the dividend of
1.25 pence per Ordinary share.

Accordingly,  application  has  been  made  to  the UK Listing Authority for the
admission  of the  New Ordinary  shares to  the Official  List of the UK Listing
Authority  and to trading on the London  Stock Exchange's main market for listed
securities  and it is expected that  dealings will commence on 2 December 2011.
The  New Ordinary shares will rank pari  passu in all respects with the existing
Ordinary shares in issue.

Following the issue of the New Ordinary shares, Crown Place VCT PLC's capital as
at  30 November 2011 consists of 83,654,818 ordinary shares. Crown Place VCT PLC
holds 8,080,410 Ordinary shares in Treasury.

Therefore  the  total  number  of  voting  rights  in  Crown  Place  VCT  PLC is
75,574,408 which  may  be  used  by  shareholders  as  the  denominator  for the
calculations  by which they will determine if  they are required to notify their
interest  in, or a  change to their  interest in, Crown  Place VCT PLC under the
FSA's Disclosure and Transparency rules.
