TIDMAADV Albion Development VCT PLC Interim Management Statement as at 31 March 2018 LEI Code 213800FDDMBD9QLHLB38 Introduction I am pleased to present Albion Development VCT PLC (the "Company")'s interim management statement for the period from 1 January 2018 to 31 March 2018. Performance and dividends The Company's unaudited net asset value (NAV) as at 31 March 2018 was GBP58.0 million or 78.2 pence per share (excluding treasury shares), an increase of 4.4 pence per share (6.0 per cent.) since 31 December 2017. A major contributor of the increase was the successful sale of Grapeshot Limited which completed after the period end. If the full escrow amount is received, we will have realised approximately 10 times our original investment. After accounting for the first dividend for the year ending 31 December 2018 of 2.0 pence per share (2017: first dividend of 2.0 pence per share) to be paid on 31 May 2018 to shareholders on the register on 4 May 2018, the NAV is 76.2 pence per share.

The proceeds of the Offer are being used to provide further resources to the Company at a time when a number of attractive new investment opportunities are being seen. Share buybacks During the period from 1 January 2018 to 31 March 2018, there were no share buybacks undertaken by the Company. It remains the Board's policy to buy back shares in the market, subject to the overall constraint that such purchases are in the Company's interest, including the maintenance of sufficient resources for investment in existing and new portfolio companies and the continued payment of dividends to shareholders. It is the Board's intention for such buy-backs to be at around a 5 per cent. discount to net asset value, so far as market conditions and liquidity permit.
