WITAN INVESTMENT TRUST PLC
Payment of a Third Interim Dividend
In accordance with its normal policy, the Company expects to pay quarterly interim dividends each year in March, June, September and December. The Company has previously indicated that the first three payments in respect of 2018 (in June, September and December) will, in the absence of unforeseen circumstances, be paid at a rate of 5.25 pence per share, being one quarter of the full year payment for 2017 (21.0 pence). The fourth payment (in March 2019) 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 third interim dividend of 5.25 pence per ordinary share of 25 pence, in respect of the year ending 31 December 2018, will be paid on Tuesday 18 December 2018 to shareholders registered at the close of business on Friday 23 November 2018 (ex-dividend date Thursday 22 November 2018).
