Results of Adjourned Separate General Meeting of the Holders of Subscription Shares

Schroder UK Growth Fund plc (the "Company") announces that at the reconvened separate General Meeting of the holders of the Subscription Shares in the Company (the "Class Meeting") held on 2 August 2013, the resolution relating to the redesignation of Subscription Shares as Deferred Shares, conferral of irrevocable authority on the Company's Board of Directors to cancel and/or purchase the Deferred Shares and amendment of the Company's Articles of Association to remove all references to the Subscription Shares and the Deferred Shares and rights attaching to each of these Shares, was duly passed.

Accordingly, all outstanding Subscription Shares will be converted into Deferred Shares and repurchased by the Company, without making any payment, and cancelled.  As previously notified the Company has requested that, following the redesignation, the UK Listing Authority cancels the listing of the Subscription Shares.  However, this cancellation has now been requested to take place at 8.00 a.m. on Friday 30 August 2013, instead of 8.00 a.m. on Friday 9 August 2013 as was previously indicated.

The full text of the resolution passed at the Class Meeting can be found in the Notice of the Class Meeting contained in the Circular dated 1 July 2013, which is available for viewing at the National Storage Mechanism, which is located at http://www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/nsm, and also on the Company's website at http://schroderukgrowthfund.com.
