Hammerson plc (the "Company")

Share capital reduction confirmation

9 October 2024

Hammerson plc announces that the cancellation of its share premium account
(the "Capital Reduction"), which was approved by shareholders at the general
meeting of the Company held on 12 September 2024, was yesterday sanctioned by
the High Court of England and Wales (the "High Court"). The effect of the
Capital Reduction is to increase the distributable reserves of the Company.

The order of the High Court confirming the Capital Reduction, and the
statement of capital approved by the High Court in connection with the same,
were delivered to the Registrar of Companies yesterday. The Capital Reduction
will become effective upon the registration of the Court order by the
Registrar of Companies, which is expected to take place shortly.

The Company confirms that, following the Capital Reduction, the issued share
capital of the Company remains at 500,226,560 ordinary shares of 5 pence each.
The Company currently holds 1,300,825 ordinary shares in treasury. The total
number of voting rights in the Company therefore remains 498,925,735.
