WITAN INVESTMENT TRUST PLC

Payment of a First Interim Dividend

Witan Investment Trust plc announced in February 2013 that it had decided to commence paying dividends quarterly, starting in 2013.  The Company intends that the first three payments (in June, September and December) will, in the absence of unforeseen circumstances, be paid at a rate of 3.3 pence per share, being one quarter of the full year payment for 2012 (13.2 pence).  The fourth payment (in March 2014) will be a balancing amount, reflecting the difference between the three quarterly dividends already paid and the payment decided for the full year.

Accordingly, the Company hereby announces that a first interim dividend, in respect of the year ending 31 December 2013, of 3.3p per ordinary share of 25p will be paid on Tuesday 18 June 2013 to shareholders registered at the close of business on Friday 24 May 2013.
