The North American Income Trust PLC announces that it is satisfied, by virtue of the points listed below, that all inside information which the Directors and the Company may have in the closed period (as defined by the EU Market Abuse Regulation) which ends on the date of the announcement of the Annual Financial Report for the year ended 31 January 2018 has been notified to a Regulated Information Service ("RIS"). The Company is therefore not prohibited from purchasing its own securities during this period.

In so stating the Company has regard to;

1)   the announcement on 6 February 2018 of the net asset value per share as of the close of business on 31 January 2018,

2)   the Company's belief, following reasonable enquiries, that there will be no material difference between the information published on 6 February 2018 and that to be included in the forthcoming announcement of the Annual Financial Report,

3)   the Company's practice of calculating net asset values per share each business day and the announcement of these net asset values to an RIS,

4)   there being no other unpublished information which constitutes price-sensitive information in respect of the Company's securities, and

5)   there being no unquoted investments within the Company's portfolio.
