FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

12 August 2025

BEST AND FINAL INCREASED CASH OFFER

for

Assura plc

by

Sana Bidco Limited

a newly formed company indirectly wholly-owned by (i) funds advised by
Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P. and its affiliates and (ii) funds
advised by Stonepeak Partners LP and its affiliates

LAPSE OF OFFER

Introduction

On 11 June 2025, Bidco announced the terms and conditions of a Best and Final
Increased Cash Offer by Bidco for the entire issued and to be issued ordinary
share capital of Assura, to be effected by means of a takeover offer (as
defined in section 974 of the Companies Act) (the "Takeover Offer"). On 1 July
2025, the full terms and conditions of the Takeover Offer and the procedures
for acceptance (the "Offer Document"), together with the related Form of
Acceptance, were published and posted to Assura Shareholders. Capitalised
terms used in this announcement shall, unless otherwise defined, have the same
meanings as set out in the Offer Document.

As at 1:00 p.m. (London time) on 12 August 2025, Bidco had not received
sufficient acceptances to satisfy the Acceptance Condition, and the Takeover
Offer has now lapsed. Further details are set out in this announcement below.

Day 60 Acceptance Level Update

In accordance with Rule 31.7 of the Takeover Code, Bidco confirms that, as at
1:00 p.m. (London time) on 12 August 2025, valid acceptances of the Offer
("Valid Acceptances") had been received in respect of 539,558,685 Assura
Shares, representing approximately 16.56 per cent. of Assura's existing issued
ordinary share capital.

Bidco had been informed by Assura that, in respect of 4,927,634 Assura Shares
(the "Irrevocable Assura Shares") which were the subject of irrevocable
undertakings in favour of Bidco to accept (or procure the acceptance of) the
Offer, all Assura Directors who held such Irrevocable Assura Shares had
instructed their respective third party brokers, custodians or nominees
through which their beneficial holdings of 4,811,471 Irrevocable Assura Shares
are held to accept the Offer in respect of their entire relevant Irrevocable
Assura Shares, however, Bidco's receiving agent was unable to separately
identify these individual acceptances in the total number of acceptances
received.

Therefore, so far as Bidco is aware, Bidco had received Valid Acceptances in
respect of 116,163 Irrevocable Assura Shares, which represents the full amount
of Irrevocable Assura Shares held by John Edward Smith. Bidco is unable to
confirm whether it has received Valid Acceptances in respect of the remaining
4,811,471 Irrevocable Assura Shares.

Interests in Securities

As at 1:00 p.m. (London time) on 12 August 2025, the interests in, or rights
to subscribe in respect of, relevant Assura securities held by Bidco were:

 Name                Nature of interest          Number of Assura   Percentage of Assura's issued ordinary share capital

Shares
 Sana Bidco Limited  Ownership of Assura Shares   164,548,145       5.05

 

Save as disclosed in this announcement, as at 1:00 p.m. (London time) on 12
August 2025, neither Bidco, nor any Bidco Director, nor, so far as the Bidco
Directors' are aware, any other person acting, or presumed to be acting, in
concert with Bidco:

·     had any interest in, or right to subscribe in respect of, any
relevant Assura securities;

·     had any short position (whether conditional or absolute and whether
in the money or otherwise), including any short position under a derivative,
any agreement to sell or any delivery obligation or any right to require
another person to take purchase or take delivery of relevant Assura
securities;

·     had procured an irrevocable commitment or letter of intent to
accept the terms of the Offer in respect of relevant Assura securities; or

·     had borrowed or lent any relevant Assura securities, save for any
borrowed shares which have been either on-lent or sold.

 

Acceptance Condition

As at 1:00 p.m. (London time) on 12 August 2025, Bidco may have counted
539,558,685 Assura Shares, representing approximately 16.56 per cent. of
Assura's existing issued ordinary share capital, towards satisfaction of the
Acceptance Condition. This comprised 164,548,145 Assura Shares which are
currently held by Bidco as set out above.

Assura Shareholders are reminded that, as a summary and subject to the fuller
description in the Offer Document, the Acceptance Condition required Valid
Acceptances to be received in respect of such number of Assura Shares which,
together with the Assura Shares acquired or agreed to be acquired, would
result in Bidco holding Assura Shares carrying in aggregate more than 50 per
cent. of the voting rights normally exercisable at a general meeting of
Assura.

As such, the Acceptance Condition has not been satisfied and the Takeover
Offer has now lapsed.

The percentages of Assura Shares referred to in this announcement are based on
the figure of 3,256,393,191 ordinary Assura Shares in issue at 6:00 p.m.
(London time) on the last Business Day prior to this announcement.

Further Information

As the Takeover Offer has now lapsed, it is no longer open to acceptances and
any accepting Assura Shareholders cease to be bound by their acceptances.

 

In the case of Assura Shares held in certificated form, the relevant Form of
Acceptance, share certificate(s) and/or other document(s) of title will be
returned by post (or by such other method as may be approved by the Panel)
within 7 calendar days of the Offer lapsing to the person or agent whose name
and address (outside a Restricted Jurisdiction) is set out in the Form of
Acceptance or, if none is set out, to the first-named holder at his / her
registered address (provided that no such documents will be sent to an address
in a Restricted Jurisdiction).

 

In the case of Assura Shares held in uncertificated form (that is, in CREST),
the UK Receiving Agent will immediately arrange TFE instructions to Euroclear
to transfer all Assura Shares held in escrow balances and in relation to which
it is the UK Receiving Agent for the purposes of the Offer to the original
available balances of the Assura Shareholders concerned.

 

In the case of Assura Shares held in dematerialised form through the Strate
system, Strate will, immediately after the lapsing of the Offer, communicate
the lapsing of the Offer and send a cancellation message to the CSDP or
broker, and the notification of acceptance made by the CSDP or broker to South
African Transfer Secretary shall be disregarded by South African Transfer
Secretary. The Underlying SA Shareholders will retain the share entitlements
they held prior to their acceptance of the Offer.

Overseas Shareholders

The release, publication or distribution of this announcement in or into

and persons involved in the Acquisition disclaim any responsibility or
liability for the violation of such requirements by any person.

Unless otherwise determined by Bidco or required by the Takeover Code, and
permitted by applicable law and regulation, the Acquisition shall not be made

not being, and must not be, directly or indirectly, mailed or otherwise
forwarded, distributed or sent in, into or from a Restricted Jurisdiction
where to do so would violate the laws in that jurisdiction, and persons
receiving this announcement and all documents relating to the Acquisition
(including custodians, nominees and trustees) must not mail or otherwise
distribute or send them in, into or from such jurisdictions where to do so
would violate the laws in that jurisdiction.

The availability of the Acquisition to Assura Shareholders who are not
resident in the United Kingdom or South Africa may be affected by the laws of
the relevant jurisdictions in which they are resident. Persons who are not
resident in the United Kingdom or South Africa should inform themselves of,

jurisdiction. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the companies

relation to Overseas Shareholders will be contained in the Offer Document.

The information contained in this announcement constitutes factual information

South African Financial Markets Act, No 19 of 2012, as amended) that any
particular transaction in respect of the Acquisition is appropriate to the
particular investment objectives, financial situations or needs of a
shareholder, and nothing in this announcement should be construed as
constituting the canvassing for, or marketing or advertising of, financial
services in South Africa. Bidco is not a financial services provider licensed
as such under the FAIS Act.

Nothing in this announcement should be viewed, or construed, as "advice", as
that term is used in the South African Financial Markets Act, No 19 of 2012,
as amended.

Additional Information for US Investors

The Takeover Offer relates to the shares of an English company and is being
made by means of a contractual takeover offer under the Takeover Code and
under English law. The Takeover Offer is being made in the United States
pursuant to all applicable laws and regulations, including, to the extent
applicable, to holders of Assura Shares resident in the United States ("US
Assura Shareholders") pursuant to Section 14(e) and Regulation 14E under the
US Exchange Act, and otherwise in accordance with the requirements of the
Takeover Code. Accordingly, the Takeover Offer is subject to the disclosure
and other procedural requirements, including with respect to withdrawal
rights, offer timetable, settlement procedures and timing of payments that are
different from those applicable under US domestic tender offer procedures and
law. The Takeover Offer is being made in the United States by Bidco and no one
else. The Takeover Offer will be made to US Assura Shareholders on the same
terms and conditions as those made to all other Assura Shareholders to whom an
offer is made. Any information documents, including the Offer Document, will
be disseminated to US Assura Shareholders on a basis comparable to the method
that such documents are provided to the other Assura Shareholders to whom an
offer is made.

The financial information included in this announcement and the Offer Document
has been or will have been prepared in accordance with IFRS and thus may not
be comparable to financial information of US companies or companies whose
financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles in the US.

The receipt of cash pursuant to the Acquisition by a US Assura Shareholder as
consideration for the transfer of its Assura Shares pursuant to the Takeover
Offer will likely be a taxable transaction for United States federal income
tax purposes and under applicable United States state and local, as well as
foreign and other, tax laws. Assura Shareholders are urged to consult their
independent professional advisers immediately regarding the tax consequences
of the Acquisition applicable to them.

It may be difficult for US Assura Shareholders to enforce their rights and
claims arising out of the US federal securities laws, since Bidco and Assura
are located in countries other than the US, and some or all of their officers
and directors may be residents of countries other than the US. US Assura
Shareholders may not be able to sue a non-US company or its officers or
directors in a non-US court for violations of US securities laws. Further, it
may be difficult to compel a non-US company and its affiliates to subject
themselves to a US court's jurisdiction and judgement.

In accordance with normal UK practice and pursuant to Rule 14e-5(b) of the US
Exchange Act, Bidco, certain affiliated companies and their nominees or
brokers (acting as agents) may make certain purchases of, or arrangements to
purchase, shares in Assura outside of the US, other than pursuant to the
Acquisition, until the date on which the Acquisition becomes Effective, lapses
or is otherwise withdrawn. Also, in accordance with Rule 14e-5(b) of the US
Exchange Act, Jefferies will continue to act as a connected exempt principal
trader in Assura Shares on the London Stock Exchange. If such purchases or
arrangements to purchase were to be made they would occur either in the open
market at prevailing prices or in private transactions at negotiated prices
and comply with applicable law, including the US Exchange Act. Any such
purchases by Bidco or its affiliates will not be made at prices higher than
the price of the Acquisition provided in this announcement unless the price of
the Acquisition is increased accordingly. Any information about such purchases
or arrangements to purchase will be disclosed as required in the United
Kingdom, will be reported to a Regulatory Information Service and will be
available on the London Stock Exchange website at www.londonstockexchange.com.
To the extent that such information is required to be publicly disclosed in
the United Kingdom in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements, this
information will, as applicable, also be publicly disclosed in the United
States.

Neither the US Securities and Exchange Commission, nor any US state securities
commission or any securities commission of other jurisdictions, has approved
or disapproved the Acquisition, passed judgement upon the fairness or the
merits of the Acquisition or passed judgement upon the adequacy or accuracy of
this announcement. Any representation to the contrary may be a criminal
offence in the United States.

Forward Looking Statements

This announcement (including information incorporated by reference in this
announcement), oral statements made regarding the Acquisition, and other
information published by KKR, Stonepeak, or Bidco contain statements about
Bidco, Assura, any member of the Wider Bidco Group or any member of the Wider
Assura Group that are or may be deemed to be forward looking statements. All
statements other than statements of historical facts included in this
announcement may be forward looking statements. Without limitation, any
statements preceded or followed by or that include the words "targets",
"plans", "believes", "expects", "aims", "intends", "will", "may", "shall",
"should", "anticipates", "estimates", "projects", "is subject to", "budget",
"scheduled", "forecast" or words or terms of similar substance or the negative
thereof, are forward looking statements. Forward looking statements may
include statements relating to the following: (i) future capital expenditures,
expenses, revenues, earnings, synergies, economic performance, indebtedness,
financial condition, dividend policy, losses and future prospects; (ii)
business and management strategies and the expansion and growth of Bidco's,
KKR's, Stonepeak's, Assura's, any member of the Wider Bidco Group's or any
member of the Wider Assura Group's operations and potential synergies
resulting from the Acquisition; and (iii) the effects of global economic
conditions and government regulation on Bidco's, KKR's, Stonepeak's, Assura's,
any member of the Wider Bidco Group's or any member of the Wider Assura
Group's business.

Such forward looking statements are prospective in nature and are not based on
historical facts, but rather on current expectations and projections of the
management of Bidco about future events and are therefore subject to risks and
uncertainties that could significantly affect expected results and are based
on certain key assumptions. Many factors could cause actual results to differ
materially from those projected or implied in any forward looking statements,
including: increased competition, the loss of or damage to one or more key
customer relationships, changes to customer ordering patterns, delays in
obtaining customer approvals for engineering or price level changes, the
failure of one or more key suppliers, the outcome of business or industry
restructuring, the outcome of any litigation, changes in economic conditions,
currency fluctuations, changes in interest and tax rates, changes in raw
material or energy market prices, changes in laws, regulations or regulatory
policies, developments in legal or public policy doctrines, technological
developments, the failure to retain key management, or the timing and success
of future acquisition opportunities or major investment projects. Other
unknown or unpredictable factors could cause actual results to differ
materially from those in the forward looking statements. Such forward looking
statements should therefore be construed in the light of such factors. None of
Bidco, KKR, Stonepeak, the Wider Bidco Group, nor any of their respective
associates or directors, officers or advisers, provides any representation,
assurance or guarantee that the occurrence of the events expressed or implied
in any forward looking statements in this announcement will actually occur.
Due to such uncertainties and risks, readers are cautioned not to place any
reliance on such forward looking statements, which speak only as of the date
hereof. All subsequent oral or written forward looking statements attributable
to any member of the Wider Bidco Group, or any of their associates, directors,
officers, employees or advisers, are expressly qualified in their entirety by
the cautionary statement above.

Bidco, KKR, Stonepeak, and the Wider Bidco Group expressly disclaim any
obligation to update any forward looking or other statements contained herein,
except as required by applicable law or by the rules of any competent
regulatory authority, whether as a result of new information, future events or
otherwise.

Disclosure Requirements of the Takeover Code

Under Rule 8.3(a) of the Takeover Code, any person who is interested in 1 per
cent. or more of any class of relevant securities of an offeree company or of
any securities exchange offeror (being any offeror other than an offeror in
respect of which it has been announced that its offer is, or is likely to be,
solely in cash) must make an Opening Position Disclosure following the
commencement of the Offer Period and, if later, following the announcement in
which any securities exchange offeror is first identified. An Opening Position
Disclosure must contain details of the person's interests and short positions
in, and rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of each of (i) the
offeree company and (ii) any securities exchange offeror(s). An Opening
Position Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(a) applies must be made by no
later than 3.30 p.m. (London time) on the 10th business day following the
commencement of the Offer Period and, if appropriate, by no later than 3.30
p.m. (London time) on the 10th business day following the announcement in
which any securities exchange offeror is first identified. Relevant persons
who deal in the relevant securities of the offeree company or of a securities
exchange offeror prior to the deadline for making an Opening Position
Disclosure must instead make a Dealing Disclosure.

Under Rule 8.3(b) of the Takeover Code, any person who is, or becomes,
interested in 1 per cent. or more of any class of relevant securities of the
offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror must make a Dealing
Disclosure if the person deals in any relevant securities of the offeree
company or of any securities exchange offeror. A Dealing Disclosure must
contain details of the dealing concerned and of the person's interests and
short positions in, and rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of
each of (i) the offeree company and (ii) any securities exchange offeror, save
to the extent that these details have previously been disclosed under Rule 8.
A Dealing Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(b) applies must be made by
no later than 3.30 p.m. (London time) on the business day following the date
of the relevant dealing.

If two or more persons act together pursuant to an agreement or understanding,
whether formal or informal, to acquire or control an interest in relevant
securities of an offeree company or a securities exchange offeror, they will
be deemed to be a single person for the purpose of Rule 8.3.

Opening Position Disclosures must also be made by the offeree company and by
any offeror and Dealing Disclosures must also be made by the offeree company,
by any offeror and by any persons acting in concert with any of them (see
Rules 8.1, 8.2 and 8.4).

Details of the offeree and offeror companies in respect of whose relevant
securities Opening Position Disclosures and Dealing Disclosures must be made
can be found in the Disclosure Table on the Panel's website at
www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk, including details of the number of relevant
securities in issue, when the Offer Period commenced and when any offeror was
first identified. If you are in any doubt as to whether you are required to
make an Opening Position Disclosure or a Dealing Disclosure, you should
contact the Panel's Market Surveillance Unit on +44 (0)20 7638 0129.
