SECONDARY SHARE SALE
Further to the secondary placing completed on 9 May 2025 (the "Placing"), PSC
UK Pty Ltd (the "Selling Shareholder") announces that it has today completed
the sale of a further 1,822,183 ordinary shares in the capital of B.P. Marsh
& Partners Plc ("B.P. Marsh") at a price of 630 pence per share, which
represents approximately 4.9% of B.P. Marsh's issued share capital (the
"Sale"). The Sale was made to one institutional investor following receipt of
buying demand for the ordinary shares after the Placing bookbuild process had
completed.
Following completion of the Placing and the Sale, the Selling Shareholder will
hold 3,626,440 ordinary shares in B.P. Marsh, representing approximately 9.8%

Panmure Liberum Limited ("Panmure Liberum") is acting for the Selling
Shareholder in connection with the Placing and the Sale. To permit the Sale,
Panmure Liberum has waived the 60-day lock-up undertaking that was agreed in
connection with the Placing (the "Lock-Up").
The remainder of the B.P. Marsh shares held by the Selling Shareholder
following the Sale will remain subject to the Lock-Up.
