SCHRODER JAPAN TRUST PLC

(the "Company")

Compliance with the Market Abuse Regulation ("MAR")

The Company announces that it is satisfied that all inside information which the Directors and the Company may have in the period leading up to the announcement of its interim results for the period ended 31 January 2026 has previously been, and will continue to be, notified via a regulatory information service ("RIS"). Therefore, the Company is not prohibited from dealing in its own securities.

The mandatory closed period under MAR will last until the interim results in respect of the period ended 31 January 2026 are published and is anticipated to end no sooner than 16 April 2026.

If, in the period leading up to the announcement of the interim results, the Directors of the Company come into the possession of any inside information, this will be notified to an RIS before any such transactions are undertaken.
