('Regional REIT' or the 'Company')

Results of Capital Raising

On 24 June 2019, Regional REIT announced a proposed Placing, Open Offer, Offer for Subscription and Intermediaries Offer at 106.5 pence per share (the 'Capital Raising').

Regional REIT is now pleased to announce that it has received valid applications and commitments for the Capital Raising such that the Company will issue 58,685,447 New Ordinary Shares at 106.5 pence per New Ordinary Share, raising, in aggregate, gross proceeds of £62.5 million. The result of the Capital Raising is in excess of the targeted gross proceeds of approximately £50 million announced on 24 June 2019 and the Board has made use of its ability to increase the size of the Capital Raising by issuing a further 11,737,089 New Ordinary Shares in order to raise the aggregate gross proceeds of £62.5 million. The disapplication of pre-emption rights in relation to the New Ordinary Shares was approved at yesterday's Extraordinary General Meeting. The issue of New Ordinary Shares will be split as follows:

· 28,617,223 New Ordinary Shares under the Placing, raising gross proceeds of £30.5 million;

· 22,146,290 New Ordinary Shares taken up under the Open Offer, including excess applications, raising gross proceeds of £23.6 million;

· 1,100,000 New Ordinary Shares under the Offer for Subscription, raising gross proceeds of £1.2 million; and

· 6,821,934 New Ordinary Shares under the Intermediaries Offer, raising gross proceeds of £7.2 million.

Applications under the Open Offer (including excess applications) and the Offer for Subscription will all be met in full.

Stephen Inglis, Chief Executive Officer of London & Scottish Property Investment Management Limited, the Asset Manager, commented:

'We are pleased to announce another successful equity capital raise, in excess of our targeted fundraising size, supporting our next period of growth, and are delighted by the strong response from new and existing shareholders. With a substantial pipeline of attractive near-term investment opportunities, we look forward to continuing to leverage our expertise to make further attractive investments in regional UK property and sector leading returns for shareholders.'

The Capital Raising was approved at the Extraordinary General Meeting held yesterday but remains conditional upon (i) the Placing Agreement becoming unconditional in all respects and (ii) Admission occurring. Application has been made for the admission of 58,685,447 New Ordinary Shares to the Official List of the Financial Conduct Authority ('FCA') and to trading on the premium segment of the London Stock Exchange's main market for listed securities. It is expected that Admission and commencement of dealings in the New Ordinary Shares will become effective at 8.00 a.m. on 23 July 2019.

The New Ordinary Shares when issued will rank, from Admission, pari passu in all respects with the Existing Ordinary Shares and will have the right to receive all dividends and distributions declared in respect of issued Ordinary Share capital of the Company after Admission.

The total issued share capital of Regional REIT following Admission will be 431,506,583 Ordinary Shares and the total number of voting rights of the Company will be 431,506,583 and this figure may be used by Shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change in their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.

Information to Distributors

Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements contained within: (a) MiFID II; (b) Articles 9 and 10 of Commission Delegated Directive (EU) 2017/593 supplementing MiFID II; and (c) local implementing measures (together, the 'Product Governance Requirements'), and disclaiming all and any liability, whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise, which any 'manufacturer' (for the purposes of the Product Governance Requirements) may otherwise have with respect thereto, the New Ordinary Shares have been subject to a product approval process, which has determined that the New Ordinary Shares are: (i) compatible with an end target market of retail investors and investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties, each as defined in MiFID II; and (ii) eligible for distribution through all distribution channels as are permitted by MiFID II (the 'Target Market Assessment').

Notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, it should be noted that: (i) the price of the New Ordinary Shares may decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment; (ii) New Ordinary Shares offer no guaranteed income and no capital protection; and (iii) an investment in New Ordinary Shares is compatible only with investors who do not need a guaranteed income or capital protection, who (either alone or in conjunction with an appropriate financial or other adviser) are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such an investment and who have sufficient resources to be able to bear any losses that may result therefrom.

The Target Market Assessment is without prejudice to the requirements of any contractual, legal or regulatory selling restrictions in relation to the Capital Raising. Furthermore, it is noted that, notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, Peel Hunt will only procure investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties. For the avoidance of doubt, the Target Market Assessment does not constitute: (a) an assessment of suitability or appropriateness for the purposes of MiFID II; or (b) a recommendation to any investor or group of investors to invest in, or purchase, or take any other action whatsoever with respect to New Ordinary Shares.

Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the New Ordinary Shares and for determining appropriate distribution channels.

This announcement does not contain, constitute or form part of any offer or invitation to sell or issue or any solicitation of any offer to purchase or subscribe for any securities in the United States or any other jurisdiction, nor shall it (or any part of it) or with the fact of its distribution form the basis of, or be relied upon in connection with, or act as any inducement to enter into, any contract or commitment therefor.
