Custodian REIT plc

("Custodian REIT" or "the Company")

Directors' purchase of ordinary shares

Custodian REIT (LSE: CREI), the UK property investment company focused on small lot-sizes, announces the purchase of ordinary shares in the Company by all of its Independent Non-Executive Directors.

David Hunter, Chairman of the Custodian REIT, commented: "I thank my colleagues for the support they have shown the Company in making the purchases detailed below which closer align the Independent Directors' interests with the long-term interests of our shareholders, without impacting their independence. These purchases reflect the Directors' view that the Company's current share price does not sufficiently reflect the true value of its net assets."
