CROWN PLACE VCT PLC

LEI Code 213800SYIQPA3L3T1Q68

The first allotment for the 2018/2019 tax year of new ordinary shares of nominal value 1 penny per share in Crown Place VCT PLC (the "Company") under the Albion VCTs Prospectus Top Up Offers 2017/18 (the "Offers"), (which was launched on 6 September 2017) took place on 11 April 2018.  This is the final allotment of shares under the Offers.

Pursuant to the Prospectus, the Company offered a 1% discount on issue costs to existing shareholders and 0.5% discount on issue costs to new subscribers. This early bird discount was available to investors whom subscribed for new shares for the first £10m by 2.00 p.m. on 31 October 2017 across the five VCTs participating in the Offers. The cost of these discounts is being borne by the Manager, Albion Capital Group LLP.

The Company has received valid applications for 169,993 new ordinary shares at an issue price of 31.0 pence per share from existing shareholders and 5,787 new ordinary shares at an issue price of 31.1 pence per share for new subscribers, both of which qualified for the early bird discount. A further 260,232 new ordinary shares will be allotted at an issue price of 31.3 pence per share (which did not qualify for the early bird discount). The net proceeds for this allotment by the Company are approximately £133,000, bringing the total net raised under the Prospectus for the Company of £5,866,000.

Application has been made to the Financial Conduct Authority for 436,012 new ordinary shares to be admitted to the Official List and to the London Stock Exchange for the new ordinary shares to be admitted to trading on the London Stock Exchange's market for listed securities. The new ordinary shares rank pari passu with the existing shares in issue.

It is expected that admission will become effective, and that dealings in the shares will commence on or before 8.00 a.m. on 13 April 2018.

The Offers which constitute separate offers have been fully subscribed and all have been closed.  The total amount raised across the Albion VCTs under the Offers is £32 million gross.

Following this allotment and in conformity with the provisions of DTR 5.6, we would like to notify the market of the following:

The Company's capital as at 11 April 2018 consists of 182,866,158 ordinary shares with a nominal value of 1 penny each. The Company holds 16,806,410 ordinary shares in Treasury.

Therefore, the total number of voting rights in the Company is 166,059,748, which may be used by shareholders and other persons 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, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
