Octopus Future Generations VCT plc (“the “Company”)

Publication of Prospectus

The Company has issued a prospectus dated 2 February 2026 relating to a
proposed offer for subscription for ordinary shares of 0.1p each in the
Company (“New Shares”) to raise up to £10 million with an over-allotment
of up to a further £5 million (the “Offer”), following approval from the
Financial Conduct Authority.

Pursuant to an agreement dated 2 February 2026 relating to the Offer between,
inter alia, the Company and Octopus Investments Limited, the Company’s
portfolio manager (the “Portfolio Manager”), which constitutes a related
party transaction falling within UK Listing Rule 8.2.1R, the Portfolio Manager
will receive a fee of 3 per cent. of the gross funds raised under the Offer by
the Company.

The board of the Company believes that the above arrangements are fair and
reasonable as far as the shareholders of the Company are concerned and have
been so advised by Howard Kennedy Corporate Services LLP, as sponsor to the
Company.

The Offer is now open and will close at 5.00 pm on 31 March 2026 for the
2025/2026 tax year and on 1 February 2027 for the 2026/2027 tax year, or
earlier if the Offer is fully subscribed. The board of the Company reserves
the right to close the Offer earlier.
