For Immediate Release

ABRDN DIVERSIFIED INCOME AND GROWTH PLC

(the "Company")

Interim Dividend

The Board of the Company announces that it is declaring an interim dividend of
0.50 pence per share on the ordinary shares of the Company (the "Interim
Dividend"), being approximately £1.5 million in aggregate.

The Interim Dividend will be paid on 26 March 2026 to shareholders on the
register at 6.00 p.m. on 13 March 2026. The ex-dividend date for the Interim
Dividend is 12 March 2026.

There will not be an option to elect to receive shares, in place of a cash
dividend, under the Company's dividend reinvestment plan.

As set out in the circular to shareholders published by the Company on 17 June
2024, the Board intends to continue to pay a sufficient level of dividend to
ensure that the Company will not retain more than 15 per cent. of its income
in an accounting period in order to maintain the Company's investment trust
status during its managed wind-down.

The Interim Dividend is in addition to the forthcoming return of capital
pursuant to the Company's B share scheme described in the announcement made by
the Company on 11 February 2026 (the "2026 Return of Capital"). The proceeds
from the 2026 Return of Capital, which are equivalent to 14.5 pence per
ordinary share (subject to rounding down for fractional entitlements), will be
sent to uncertificated Shareholders through CREST, and to certificated
Shareholders via cheque or electronic payment (if there is an electronic
payment mandate on file), by 9 March 2026.( )
