Octopus Titan VCT plc (the "Company") announces that 12,157,683 Ordinary Shares of 10p each ("shares") were issued and allotted on 5 April 2016 at a price of 108.7p per share, equivalent to the current NAV of 102.7p grossed up by 5.5% (as set out in the prospectus dated 8 September 2015 (the "Prospectus")). These shares were issued pursuant to an Offer for Subscription (the "Offer") to raise up to £100 million, as set out in the Prospectus, as supplemented by supplementary prospectuses dated 19 February 2016 and 23 March 2016.  To date the Company has raised in excess of £90 million under the Offer.

Included within the above allotment were the following:

Alex Macpherson, a person discharging managerial responsibilities, was allotted 49,447 Ordinary Shares at a price per share of 108.7p and his total holdings are now 225,218 Ordinary shares, representing less than 0.1% of the Company's issued Ordinary share capital.

In addition 2,359,377 Ordinary Shares of 10p each were issued and allotted on the same terms and conditions as set out in the Prospectus but which, on account of the Offer being full, were issued and allotted outside of the Offer.
