Adjournment of General Meeting

Ventus 3 VCT plc

Recommendation to merge Ventus 3 VCT plc ("Ventus 3") and Ventus 2 VCT plc ("Ventus 2") by way of a scheme of reconstruction of Ventus 3 pursuant to Section 110 of the Insolvency Act 1986 (the "Scheme")

Adjournment of General meeting, 17 March 2010

Summary

The boards of directors of Ventus 2 and Ventus 3 have written to shareholders to recommend that Ventus 2 and Ventus 3 merge on the terms of a scheme of reconstruction set out in the prospectus dated 8 February 2010 that was issued by Ventus 2 (the "Prospectus").

In connection with the approval of the Scheme, a Ventus 3 shareholder meeting was convened at 10am on Wednesday 17 March 2010. The chairman of the meeting ("Chairman") announced to those present that the meeting would be adjourned and reconvened at noon on Thursday 15 April 2010. The venue of the reconvened meeting will be the offices of Climate Change Capital Limited, 3 More London Riverside, London SE1 2AQ.

The Chairman explained at the meeting that there were a number of the third party consents that were required in order to effect the transfer of Ventus 3's assets to Ventus 2 in connection with the Scheme. Ventus 3 had been advised that it is preferable that those consents are obtained before the next step of the Scheme progresses and the Chairman noted that not all of the consents had yet been received. As such it was deemed appropriate to adjourn the meeting and reconvene it at a time when the relevant consents were expected to be in place.

The adjournment of the meeting by 29 days to Thursday 15 April 2010 defers the Expected Timetable set out in the Prospectus by 29 days.
