Mundys Strengthens Its Strategic Position in Getlink


 * Acquisition of up to 9.5% of Getlink’s share capital and achievement of up
to 29.9% of voting rights

 

Regulatory News:

Mundys today announces that it strengthens its strategic position in Getlink
with the acquisition(1) of up to 9.5% of Getlink share capital. 3.5% of
Getlink’s share capital will be acquired upfront, with the ability for
Mundys to acquire up to an additional 6.0% conditional upon Mundys receiving
the required regulatory approval, expected by April 2026(2).

As a result of acquiring 3.5% of Getlink’s shares, Mundys will hold 19.0% of
Getlink’s share capital and up to 24.9% of its voting rights(3) confirming
itself as one of the main shareholders of the company. Should the required
regulatory approval be obtained, Mundys will have the ability to increase its
shareholding in Getlink up to 25.0% of the share capital and a maximum of
29.9% of the voting rights(4).

The transaction further confirms Mundys’ commitment, initiated in 2018, to
support Getlink, its management, its employees and its long-term strategy. The
acquisition is also in line with Mundys’ strategy to strengthen its
investments in France, a major European country in which the company firmly
believes and where it has been operating in the infrastructure sector for more
than ten years, through a collaborative approach with local stakeholders and
institutions.

Mundys may further increase its stake depending on market conditions and has
no intention to take control or to request the nomination of additional board
members.

 _________________________                                                        
 (1) Through its wholly-owned subsidiary Aero 1 Global & International S.à        
 r.l., a société à responsabilité limitée owner of 15.5% of Getlink’s             
 share capital and organized under the laws of the Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg,     
 whose registered office is located at 9, rue de Bitbourg, L-1273 Luxembourg,     
 Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg (“Aero 1”).                                            
 (2) This acquisition of 3.5% of Getlink’s share capital will result from the     
 transfer of shares by the investment service providers with which Aero 1 has     
 entered into total return swap agreements on the date hereof; such transfer of   
 shares will occur after the conversion of shares into bearer form, as will be    
 instructed by Aero 1 on the date hereof and described in footnote 3; the         
 ability for Aero 1 to acquire a second tranche of shares up to 6.0% of           
 Getlink’s share capital is conditional upon clearance by the UK Government       
 under the National Security and Investment Act 2021.                             
 (3) Estimation based (i) on the 550,000,000 shares and 699,916,029 voting        
 rights as published by Getlink on 11 March 2026 and (ii) taking into account     
 the switch to single voting right of some of the shares owned by Aero 1 and      
 other conversions already disclosed to the market. As the acquisition of 3.5%    
 of Getlink’s shares is subject to such switch, Aero 1 will maintain its          
 voting rights below 25% (although due to certain assimilation rules applicable   
 under French stock market law, a synthetic 25% voting rights threshold is        
 temporarily crossed until the conversion to bearer form becomes effective).      
 (4) See footnote 3. As a result, Aero 1 will maintain its voting rights below    
 30%.
