Notes

The Awards were released at a price of 609.9 pence.

The number of Shares vested includes additional Shares received in lieu of
dividends declared during the vesting period, which are subject to tax.

A sufficient number of Shares were sold by each PDMR to cover their respective
tax liabilities arising as a result of the vesting of the Awards.

The LTIP awards vested in accordance with the rules of the plan and following
performance testing.

Shares received by Amanda Blanc and Charlotte Jones as a result of the vesting
of their LTIP awards and following the sale of a proportion of vested awards
to cover taxes are subject to a two-year holding period.

Navinder Dhillon's LTIP award was not subject to performance conditions due to
him not being on the Group Executive Committee at the time of grant.

Shares received by Mark Versey as a result of the vesting of his LTIP award
and following the sale of a proportion of vested awards to cover taxes are
subject to a 6-month holding period.

Douglas Brown's and Mark Versey's LTIP awards were subject to personal
performance conditions aligned with Capital Requirements Directive IV
requirements. Individual performance was considered at both the point of grant
and prior vesting.
