                            Non-core asset disposal 
 
Picton has exchanged contracts to sell a non-core asset (the "Property") to 
Cheshire West and Chester Council for GBP3.85 million, with completion due in 
June 2018. 
 
The Property, located in central Chester, comprises a fully occupied, multi-let 
22,000 sq ft office building with nine occupiers and a weighted average 
unexpired lease length of just over three years. 
 
The purchaser had exercised a Compulsory Purchase Order (CPO) for the Property 
as part of the wider Chester Northgate retail, leisure and residential scheme. 
This transaction was agreed as part of the process, enabling them to acquire 
the property in advance of a confirmed CPO. 
 
The sale price reflects a net initial yield of 6.4% and a 5% premium to the 31 
December 2017 independent valuation. 
 
In addition a further top-up payment of GBP150,000 is due on or before 2023, 
dependent on the timing of the Chester Northgate scheme. 
 
Michael Morris, Chief Executive of Picton Capital Limited, commented:  "This 
NAV accretive transaction captures the upside from our leasing and asset 
management activity. The proceeds further reduce the Group's LTV."
