Guernsey, 16 June 2010

Results of the Annual General Meeting

Princess Private Equity Holding Limited ("Princess" or "Company") is pleased to announce that at its Annual General Meeting held on Wednesday, 16 June 2010, the resolutions put to Shareholders for the adoption of the 31 December 2009 financial statements, re-appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers CI LLP as auditor for the year ending 31 December 2010, re-election of Directors and authorization of the Company to make market purchases of Ordinary Shares in the Company were all duly passed.

In addition, shareholders had the opportunity to cast their vote with respect to a proposed restructuring of the Company into an open-ended investment company and cancellation of listing on the Frankfurt and London Stock Exchanges. The respective resolutions (the "Conversion Resolutions") received the support from 73.7% of votes cast which was, however, just below the qualified majority of 75% needed for the approval of the restructuring. As a result, the restructuring has been narrowly rejected and the Company will continue to operate in the current corporate structure.

Brian Human, Chairman of the Company, comments: "We acknowledge whilst the Conversion Resolutions received strong support from shareholders, it was, however, just short of the required 75% of votes cast and thus was not sufficient to approve the restructuring. The Board and its Investment Manager were, based on previous discussions with shareholders, of the opinion that a sufficient majority of shareholders were in favor of the proposed conversion. However, a number of shareholders have now decided that they believe in and want to remain invested in the current corporate structure of the Company. As the position has been clarified, the Board and its Investment Manager look forward to developing shareholder value under the Frankfurt and London listed closed-end structure. We note the strong rally year to date, both in Princess' share price and among the peer group, and expect the intrinsic attractions of liquidity and regulatory familiarity to provide further support, as private equity activity returns towards normal levels. The Board is committed to restoring the dividend over the medium term and will continue to review other opportunities to reduce the structural discount."

The detailed results of the poll in respect to the Conversion Resolutions, being the following two special resolutions and one ordinary resolution respectively are:

A certified copy of the special resolution to make market purchases of the Company's own shares has been submitted to the UK Listing Authority and will shortly be available for inspection at the UK Listing Authority's Document Viewing Facility, which is situated at:
