OCTOPUS AIM VCT PLC

Issue of Equity and Total Voting Rights

Octopus AIM VCT plc (the ‘Company’) announces that 43,183 Ordinary Shares
of 1p each were issued and allotted on 22 May 2025 at a price of 50.1p per
share equivalent to the current NAV.

These shares were issued to those investors who, in accordance with the
adviser charging terms contained in each fundraising document offered to the
public and published since 31 December 2012 following the introduction of the
Retail Distribution Review, had chosen to pay their adviser less than the 0.5%
ongoing adviser charge. One deceased shareholder was included as part of these
investors and their estate will receive a proportion of the rebate in cash in
place of Ordinary Shares.

An application for the shares to be admitted to the Official List of the
Financial Conduct Authority (‘FCA’) and to trading on the London Stock
Exchange’s main market for listed securities will be made and dealings are
expected to commence on or around 29 May 2025.

The issued share capital and total voting rights of the Company are now
234,561,589. This figure may be used by shareholders in the Company as the
denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are
required to notify their interest in, or a change in their interest in, the
share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and
Transparency Rules.
