New Century AIM VCT 2 PLC (the “Company”) announces the issue of 506,760 new ordinary shares of 10 pence each in the capital of the Company (“Shares”) by way of a share subscription today at a price of 42.55 pence per share (being the net asset value per ordinary share in the Company at the close of business as at 8 June 2023) to raise approximately £215,626 before expenses.

The Shares will rank, upon issue, pari passu in all respects with the existing issued ordinary shares of the Company. Application for the new shares to be admitted to the Official List of the Financial Conduct Authority and to trading on the London Stock Exchange’s main market for listed securities has been made and dealings are expected to commence on or around 19 June 2023.

The Shares represent 10.0% per cent of the existing issued ordinary share capital of the Company and are being allotted under the authorities granted at the Annual General Meeting of the Company held on 30 June 2022 pursuant to Section 571 of the Companies Act 2006.

The total number of shares issued by the Company on completion of the share subscription is now 5,574,403. 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 and Transparency Rules.
