                                                              7 December 2022

                                        

       Custodian REIT plc (now called Custodian Property Income REIT plc)

                                        

                                (“the Company”)

                                        

                                 Change of name

    

   Custodian REIT plc  (LSE: CREI), which  seeks to deliver  a strong  income
   return by  investing  in  a  diversified  portfolio  of  smaller  regional
   properties across  the UK,  announces  that it  has  changed its  name  to
   Custodian Property Income REIT plc with immediate effect.

    

   The Board  believes the  new name  better reflects  the Company’s  primary
   focus on and track  record of generating  income returns for  shareholders
   and expects the  change to  make the  Company’s shares  more prominent  to
   retail investors, particularly those accessing via online platforms.

    

   It is expected that the Company’s shares will trade under the new name  on
   the London Stock Exchange with effect from 8.00 am on 8 December 2022.

    

   The Company’s trading instrument display  mnemonic ("CREI"), the ISIN  and
   SEDOL numbers and  the Company’s website  (custodianreit.com) will  remain
   unchanged.

    

   The name change was  approved by shareholders at  the Company’s AGM on  31
   August 2022.

    

   Shareholders are  unaffected by  the  change of  name and  existing  share
   certificates should be  retained and  will remain  valid.  The  investment
   policy remains unchanged with Richard Shepherd-Cross continuing to act  as
   Investment Manager.

    

   Richard Shepherd-Cross, Managing  Director of  Custodian Capital  Limited,
   said: “We believe the change of name to Custodian Property Income REIT plc
   gives investors  a much  clearer  understanding of  the Company’s  aim  to
   provide shareholders  with  long  term  asset backed  income  and  of  our
   investment strategy.  We  believe this  is particularly  important in  the
   current environment where investors are seeking secure and growing  income
   streams as  a hedge  against inflation.   It also  reflects our  continued
   emphasis on providing full transparency to our existing shareholders while
   at the same time aiming to drive liquidity in our shares by attracting new
   investors.”
