Transactions in a Close Period - Listing Rule 15.5.1 (4)

The City of London Investment Trust plc ("the Company") hereby confirms that:

a)         there is no unpublished information which constitutes price sensitive information in respect of the Company's securities;

b)         the Company's net asset value per share is calculated and announced through a Regulated Information Service ("RIS") on a daily basis;

c)         the Company has no reason to believe that there will be any material difference between the net asset value to be announced today (as at close of business on 13 July 2011) and the financial information to be published in the announcement of its annual results for the year ended 30 June 2011;

d)         the Company has no unquoted investments;

e)         a dividend may be declared during the close period but is not expected to be price sensitive.

The Company is therefore exempt during the close period from the provisions of the Model Code in respect of dealings by persons discharging managerial responsibilities, purchases of its own securities and the issue by the Company of its own securities.  If, in the period leading up to the announcement of the results, the directors or the Company come into possession of any inside information, this will be notified to a RIS before any such transactions are undertaken.

The close period to which this notification relates is in respect of the financial year ended 30 June 2011.
