Henderson Opportunities Trust plc will seek shareholder approval for a share repurchase program at its Annual General Meeting to be held on March 15, 2012. Under the plan, the company will repurchase up to 1,193,978 shares, representing 14.99% of its issued share capital. The minimum price (exclusive of expenses) which may be paid for a share is 1p. The maximum price (exclusive of expenses) which may be paid for a share is an amount equal to 105% of the average middle market quotations for a share taken from the London Stock Exchange Daily Official List for the five business days immediately preceding the day on which the share is purchased, or such other amount as may be specified by the UK Listing Authority from time to time. The plan will expire at the conclusion of the Annual General Meeting of the company in 2013, or, if earlier, after 18 months, unless renewed.
