Terra Capital Plc ('Terra' or 'the Fund')

Manager's Update Regarding Q3 2015

Terra Capital Plc ('TCA'), the AIM quoted investment trust focused on investing in value opportunities globally, primarily in frontier markets is pleased to report that it has received the latest report from Terra Partners Asset Management Limited ('TPAM' or the 'Fund Manager'), covering its activities in Q3 2015.

TCA's non-executive Chairman, Dirk Van den Broeck said "The Fund's strong relative performance compared to the MSCI Frontier Markets and Emerging Markets indices during Q3 2015, a period marked by heightened market volatility and risk aversion, is testament to not only our focus on value opportunities globally but also the investment process our Fund Manager has put in place. This involves in-house analysts in four continents identifying under-researched value opportunities early; an in depth comprehensive screening process; robust financial analysis; and a focus on risk management."

The Fund Manager's update covering Q3 2015 is reproduced below.

Terra Partners Asset Management Limited ("TPAM") presents its Third Quarter 2015 Update to shareholders regarding the activities of Terra Capital Plc. ("TCA" or the "Fund"), an AIM quoted investment trust investing globally in value opportunities, primarily in frontier markets.

The opinions expressed in this document represent the views of TPAM, the Fund Manager of TCA, at the time of its preparation. This document has been prepared from publicly available information, internally developed data and other sources believed to be reliable, and all reasonable precautions have been taken to ensure its accuracy; however, no representation or warranty about the accuracy of the information contained in, or of any omissions from, this document or any supplementary information made available to any interested party or its advisers is implied, and any liability in respect of such information or omissions is hereby expressly disclaimed. Note that the information herein is not all of the information TPAM had available, or which it relied upon, when making its initial and continuing investment decisions. TPAM reserves the right to amend the information provided herein, and its opinions, at any time, and undertakes no obligation (express or implied) to provide any recipient with any further information or to correct any inaccuracies or omissions which may become apparent. Readers are advised that a fund managed by TPAM, the officers and employees of TPAM, and Directors of TCA currently own positions in TCA.

Investments in Emerging and Frontier markets usually suffer from liquidity problems, and are often affected by governmental interference in the free market, local politics and vagaries in commodity and currency prices; therefore, their prices can be very volatile. This means that it can be difficult to acquire and subsequently sell the shares noted in TCA's portfolio. This document is for information purposes only and it is not intended as an offer or solicitation regarding the purchase or sale of any security or investment vehicle.

All solicitations or offers are on the public market of the AIM Section of the London Stock Exchange and occur by reference to TCA's Offering Memorandum and the document titled "Tender Offer to Purchase Ordinary Shares at the Tender Price and Restructuring and Amendment to the Directors' Incentive Plan and Change of name to Terra Capital PLC and Notice of Extraordinary General Meeting" of the April 30, 2012 (the "Circular") as amended by subsequent resolutions, primarily the one passed at the January 26, 2015 EGM. Documents are accessible on TCA's website www.terracapitalplc.com in the "Investor Centre" tab under the Documents and Announcements section of the file "AIM Rule 26". This website contains important information which may supplement, modify or differ from the information contained herein and no prospective investment decision should be considered before careful reading of documentation found on TCA's website. All current and prospective investors should be aware that PAST PERFORMANCE IS NOT NECESSARILY INDICATIVE OF FUTURE RESULTS.

By accepting this document, you agree to be bound by the foregoing limitations.
