REG-Capita PLC: Circular re Disposal and Notice of GM

Tuesday 11 October, 2022

Capita plc

(“Capita” or the “Company”)

Publication of Circular and Notice of General Meeting

On 16 September 2022, Capita announced the agreement to dispose of Pay360
Limited to Access PaySuite Ltd, a division of The Access Group (the
‘Disposal’).

The Disposal constitutes a Class 1 transaction for Capita under the Listing
Rules and is therefore conditional upon, amongst other things, the approval of
Capita shareholders at a general meeting of the Company.

Capita is pleased to announce that a shareholder circular in relation to the
Disposal (the “Circular”) has been published today, having received
approval from the Financial Conduct Authority. The Circular will be sent to
Capita shareholders (other than those who have elected or who have been deemed
to have elected for notification by electronic communication) shortly.

The Circular contains further information on the Disposal and a notice
convening a general meeting of Capita to be held at 10:30a.m. on 1 November
2022 at Linklaters LLP, One Silk Street, London EC2Y 8HQ (the “General
Meeting”).

As set out in the Notice of General Meeting, the General Meeting will be held
as a physical meeting. Capita will continue to closely monitor the latest
Government guidance in respect of COVID-19 and how this may affect the
arrangements for the General Meeting. If the UK Government reintroduces
restrictions on public gatherings before the date of the General Meeting,
Capita may be required to revise these arrangements, including by limiting
physical attendance at the General Meeting. In such circumstances, Capita will
make an announcement setting out the revised arrangements. Further information
will be made available on our website at
http://www.capita.com/investors/shareholder-information/gm-shareholder-questions
and/or via a Regulatory Information Service. Capita shareholders should
therefore monitor Capita’s website and regulatory news announcements for any
updates relating to the General Meeting. Whether or not you intend to attend
the General Meeting, you are encouraged to appoint a proxy to cast your votes
on the resolution as soon as possible in the manner set out in the Circular
and Notice of General Meeting.

Copies of the following documents have been submitted to the National Storage
Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection
at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism:

-  Circular

-  Notice of General Meeting

These documents will also be available to view on the Company’s website
at http://www.capita.com/investors/shareholder-information/gm-shareholder-questions from
the date of this announcement up to and including the date of the General
Meeting.
