Investment Update

The Board of EJF Investments Ltd ("EJFI" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it expects the commencement of the redemption of all of the outstanding notes and preferred shares issued by TruPS Financials Note Securitization 2017-1 Ltd ("TFINS 2017-1"). As a holder of preferred shares in TFINS 2017- 1 (the "Preferred Shares"), the Company believes that the redemption of TFINS 2017-1 will generate a total gain for the Company of approximately £9.2 million1, subject to settlement, which should take place on 22 April 2019.

As mentioned in the Company's March 2019 Factsheet published today, the unaudited net asset value ("NAV") of the Company for March 2019 reflected a partial mark-up in the Preferred Shares in light of the possibility that the redemption would occur. In addition to the mark-up currently reflected in the March 2019 NAV, the Company estimates that the positive effect on the April 2019 NAV purely attributable to the redemption of TFINS 2017-1 to be approximately 9.1 pence per share2.

The Company has a developed investment pipeline and anticipates that the proceeds will be deployed in the short term.
