20 DAY DELISTING ANNOUNCEMENT

Recommended proposals in relation to the voluntary winding-up of the Company and cancellation of the admission to trading on the AIM Market ("AIM") and The International Stock Exchange ("TISE")

The board of directors of the Company (the "Board"), announces today that it intends to seek shareholder approval to put the Company into members' voluntary liquidation, appoint a liquidator and cancel the admission of the Company's ordinary shares (the "Shares") to trading on AIM and TISE (the "Delisting") (together, the "Proposals"). A circular (the "Circular") will today be posted to shareholders setting out further details of the Proposals and convening an extraordinary general meeting of the Company's shareholders to be held at the Company's registered office, Millennium House, 46 Athol Street, Douglas, Isle of Man IM1 1JB at 11:00 a.m. on 2 May 2018 (the "EGM") in order to approve the Proposals.

In accordance with Rule 41 of the AIM Rules for Companies and the rules of TISE, the Company has notified London Stock Exchange plc and TISE of its intention to cancel the admission of the Shares to trading on AIM and TISE, subject to shareholder approval of not less than 75 per cent. of votes cast at the EGM. Trading of the Shares on AIM and TISE will be suspended from 7.00 a.m. on 2 May 2018 and, if the Proposals are approved by the requisite majority of shareholders at the EGM, it is intended that the admission of the Shares to trading on AIM and TISE will be cancelled with effect from 7.00 a.m. on 3 May 2018.

No provision has been or will be made for trading in the Shares following the Delisting. In addition, if the Proposals are approved by the requisite majority of shareholders at the EGM, the Shares will not be transferable following the EGM without the consent of the liquidator. The effect of the Delisting will be that the Shares will no longer be quoted or tradable on AIM or TISE and shareholders will not therefore be readily able to sell their Shares. Shareholders will be able to buy and sell their Shares "off market", although this will be more difficult than trading "on market".

Background to and reasons for the Proposals

Since all of the Company's realisable investments have now been sold and converted into cash and efforts by the Company's investment manager to promptly realise the Company's final asset (being its interest in the property development asset in Brakpan, Gauteng, South Africa (the "Brakpan Asset")) have been unsuccessful, the Board now considers that it is no longer practicable to operate the Company in the hope of generating meaningful proceeds from a disposal of Brakpan Asset. Accordingly, the Board has resolved that the Company should seek an orderly winding-up on a solvent basis, that remaining cash will be returned to shareholders and that, as part of this process, a cancellation of its admission to trading on AIM and the TISE would be sought.

Proposed cash distribution

The Company's cash net of remaining liabilities is £99,417, or 0.16 pence per Share. If the resolution to enter the Company into liquidation is passed at the EGM then the Board will, immediately following the EGM (subject to applicable law and the relevant authority being granted by the liquidator to the Board), consider making a cash distribution, taking into account the Company's cash balance net of liabilities as at 2 May 2018. If the resolution to enter the Company into liquidation is not passed then no such distribution will be declared.

Copies of the Circular, including the notice convening the EGM, will shortly be available on the Company's website at http://www.saprofund.com/.
