Ground Rents Income Fund plc
Notification and public disclosure of transactions by persons discharging managerial responsibilities and persons closely associated with them
The Company has received notification from Barry Gordon Gilbertson, a director of the Company, that LGT Wealth Management UK LLP ("LGT Vestra") erroneously sold 38,813 shares in the Company held by Professor Gilbertson on 27 June 2024. In discovering and confirming their error on 10 September 2024, LGT Vestra made a corrective repurchase of the same number of shares on 10 September 2024, to which this notification relates. Although LGT Vestra and Professor Gilbertson have a discretionary investment management agreement, there was a standing instruction in place specifically not to trade in the Company's shares on his behalf unless explicitly instructed. No such explicit instruction was given. This sale and repurchase does not represent any intention for Professor Gilbertson to sell his shares in the Company.
The details of the trades are as follows:
(i) an erroneous sale of 38,813 shares at 28.67 pence on 27 June 2024; and
(ii) a corrective repurchase of 38,813 shares at 26.13 pence on 10 September 2024.
Following the transactions, there has been no change to the number of shares in the Company held by Barry Gordon Gilbertson.
