                               10 September 2021

                                AEW UK REIT plc

                     Dividend Payment - PID tax deductions

    

   Further to the announcement on  21 July 2021, AEW  UK REIT plc ("AEWU"  or
   "the Company") made dividend payments on 31 August 2021 to shareholders on
   the register as at 30 July 2021.  The dividend of 2.00 pence per share was
   designated 1.00 pence per share as an interim property income distribution
   ("PID")  and  1.00  pence  per  share  as  an  interim  ordinary  dividend
   ("non-PID").

    

   The  Company  has  been  advised   by  its  registrar,  Link  Group   (the
   'Registrar'), that some investors, who  had previously elected to  receive
   PID distributions  gross,  have  received  the  distribution  net  of  20%
   withholding  tax.  Accordingly,  the  Registrar  will  be  contacting  all
   impacted investors with details of the additional distribution to be  paid
   to rectify this issue.

    

   Should shareholders wish to contact  the Registrar directly in  connection
   with this matter, the contact details are:
