Dividend Declaration

The Board of Personal Assets Trust plc has today declared a fourth quarterly dividend for the year to 30 April 2012 of £1.40 per share. The dividend will be paid on 20 April 2012 to shareholders on the register on 9 March 2012. The ex-dividend date will be 7 March 2012.

The Board's stated dividend policy is for the present dividend rate to grow over the long term in real terms relative to both the CPI and RPI and never to cut the dividend rate, so shareholders know that each payment will at least equal the previous one. The first quarterly dividend for the year ended 30 April 2013, expected to be paid in July 2012, will be at least £1.40 per share and the total dividend for the year will be not less than £5.60.
