WRAP Retail Offer

 

Invesco Bond Income Plus Limited ("                     BIPS                  
 " or the "                     Company                    ")                 
                       an investment company that aims to obtain capital
growth and high income by investing predominantly in high-yielding
fixed-interest assets, is pleased to announce a retail offer via the
Winterflood Retail Access Platform ("                     WRAP                
   ") (the "                     WRAP Retail Offer                    ").

 

The WRAP Retail Offer is being undertaken alongside a placing (the "          
          Placing                    ") of new ordinary shares of no par value
in the capital of the Company ("                     Shares                   
") that was announced by the Company on 29 January 2026 (the "                
    Fundraise                    ").

 

Shares will be issued in the Placing and WRAP Retail Offer pursuant to the
Company's existing shareholder authorities and, to the extent the requisite
shareholder authorities are obtained at a general meeting convened for 12
February 2026 (the "                     General Meeting                   
"), the additional issuance authorities being sought at the General Meeting.
Any Shares issued pursuant to the Placing and WRAP Retail Offer will be issued
at a price equal to a 0.75% premium to the last published cum-income NAV per
Share prior to the Fundraise close (the "                     Issue Price     
              "). The Issue Price is expected to be announced on 11 February
2026.

 

Applications will be made to the London Stock Exchange for admission to
trading of the new Shares on its main market for listed securities ("         
           Admission                    ").                      It is
expected that Admission will become effective at 8.00 a.m. on 16 February 2026
and that dealings in the new Shares will commence at that time.

 

A separate announcement has been made regarding the Placing and its terms and
sets out the reasons for the Placing and use of proceeds.                    
 The net proceeds of the WRAP Retail Offer will be invested in accordance with
the Company's investment policy.

 

For the avoidance of doubt, the WRAP Retail Offer is not part of the Placing.
Completion of the WRAP Retail Offer is conditional, inter alia, upon the
completion of the Placing but completion of the Placing is not conditional on
the completion of the WRAP Retail Offer.

 

WRAP Retail Offer

 

The Company values its retail shareholder base and believes that it is
appropriate to provide its existing retail shareholders, along with new
qualifying investors, in the United Kingdom the opportunity to participate in
the WRAP Retail Offer.

 

Therefore, the Company is making the WRAP Retail Offer open to eligible
investors in the United Kingdom following release of this announcement and
through certain financial intermediaries. To be eligible to participate in the
WRAP Retail Offer, applicants must be customers of a participating
intermediary (including individuals aged 18 years or over), companies and
other bodies corporate, partnerships, trusts, associations and other
unincorporated organisations ("                     Eligible Retail Investors 
                  "). Eligible Retail Investors can contact their broker or
wealth manager to participate in the WRAP Retail Offer.

 

A number of retail platforms are able to access the WRAP Retail Offer.
Non-holders or existing shareholders wishing to subscribe for WRAP Retail
Offer Shares should contact their broker or wealth manager who will confirm if
they are participating in the WRAP Retail Offer.

 

Retail brokers wishing to participate in the WRAP Retail Offer on behalf of
Eligible Retail Investors, should contact                                 
WRAP@winterflood.com                               .

 

The WRAP Retail Offer is expected to close at 2.00 p.m. on 12 February 2026.
Eligible Retail Investors should note that financial intermediaries may have
earlier closing times. The result of the WRAP Retail Offer is expected to be
announced by the Company, alongside the result of the Fundraise, on or around
13 February 2026.

 

There is a minimum subscription of £100 per investor under the WRAP Retail
Offer. The terms and conditions on which investors subscribe will be provided
by the relevant financial intermediaries including relevant commission or fee
charges.

 

The Company reserves the right to amend the size and timings of the WRAP
Retail Offer at its discretion. The Company reserves the right to scale back
any order and to reject any application for subscription under the WRAP Retail
Offer without giving any reason for such rejection.

 

It is vital to note that once an application for WRAP Retail Offer Shares has
been made and accepted via an intermediary, it cannot be withdrawn.

 

The new Shares will, when issued, be credited as fully paid, and have the
right to receive all dividends and other distributions declared, made or paid
after their date of issue.

 

Investors should make their own investigations into the merits of an
investment in the Company. Nothing in this announcement amounts to a
recommendation to invest in the Company or amounts to investment, taxation or
legal advice.

 

It should be noted that a subscription for Shares and investment in the
Company carries a number of risks, including the risk that investors may lose
their entire investment. Investors should take independent advice from a
person experienced in advising on investment in securities such as the Shares
if they are in any doubt.

 

An investment in the Company will place capital at risk. The value of
investments, and any income, can go down as well as up, so investors could get
back less than the amount invested.

 

Neither past performance nor any forecasts should be considered a reliable
indicator of future results.

 

The WRAP Retail Offer is offered in the United Kingdom under the exemption
from the requirement to publish a prospectus pursuant to Schedule 1 (Part 1)
of The Public Offers and Admission to Trading Regulations 2024 and the
Prospectus Rules of the FCA. There is a Jersey legal requirement pursuant to
the Collective Investment Funds (Certified Funds - Prospectuses) (Jersey)
Order 2012 (the "                     Prospectus Order                    ")
to provide certain information in respect of the WRAP Retail Offer. This
supplemental information can be found in the appendix to this announcement
(the "                     Supplemental Information                    "). The
WRAP Retail Offer is not being made into any jurisdiction other than the
United Kingdom.

                                        The Company was established in
Jersey as a listed fund under a fast-track authorisation process. For the
purposes of Jersey regulation, it is suitable therefore only for professional
or experienced investors, or those who have taken appropriate professional
advice. Regulatory requirements which may be deemed necessary in Jersey for
the protection of retail or inexperienced investors, do not apply to listed
funds. By investing in the Company investors are deemed to be acknowledging
for the purposes of Jersey regulation that they are a professional or
experienced investor, or have taken appropriate professional advice, and
accept the reduced requirements accordingly. Investors are wholly responsible
for ensuring that all aspects of the Company are acceptable to them.
Investment in listed funds may involve special risks that could lead to a loss
of all or a substantial portion of such investment. Unless investors fully
understand and accept the nature of the Company and the potential risks
inherent in the Company they should not invest in the Company. Further
information in relation to the regulatory treatment of listed funds domiciled
in Jersey may be found on the website of the JFSC at

                             The Company and its directors have taken all
reasonable care to ensure that the facts stated in the Information Memorandum
are true and accurate in all material respects and that there are no other
material facts the omission of which would make misleading any statement in
the Information Memorandum, whether of fact or opinion. The Company and its
directors accept responsibility accordingly.
