Distribution by Mandatory Share Repurchase

Pacific Alliance China Land Limited ("PACL" or the "Company"), (AIM: PACL), the closed-end investment company admitted to trading on AIM, announces the distribution of US$78 million from the initial repatriation of net proceeds from Project Auspice.

In June, the Company repatriated net realized profit of US$81.6 million from the gross proceeds of US$118.7 million received from the sale of the Wanda Shares. The remaining cash, net of liabilities, of approximately US$61 million is expected to be repatriated and distributed in December 2018.

After providing for the Company's estimated working capital needs, the Board has approved the return of US$78 million to Shareholders by way of a mandatory repurchase of Shares (the "Mandatory Repurchase"). The Board has determined this means of distribution is in the best interests of Shareholders at this time.

Pursuant to the Mandatory Repurchase, the shareholding of each of the Company's Shareholders will be reduced through the automatic repurchase and cancellation by the Company of approximately 53.7 per cent. of such shareholding (rounded down to the nearest whole number of Shares). The repurchase price credited to each Shareholder will be US$2.86 per share, which is equal to the Company's unaudited net asset value per Share as at 31 May 2018, rounded down to the nearest whole cent.

The record date for the Mandatory Repurchase is 21 June 2018. All Shareholders as at the record date will be able to participate in the distribution without any further action required on their part.

The timetable for the Mandatory Repurchase is as follows,
