September 23, 2022. Lloyds Banking Group plc (the "Group") announces that it
has issued a notice of redemption for the entire outstanding principal amount
of its 2.907% Senior Callable Fixed-to-Floating Rate Notes due 2023 (the
"Notes"). A notice of redemption pursuant to the terms of the Senior Debt
Securities Indenture dated July 6, 2010 as amended and supplemented by the
Third Supplemental Indenture dated November 7, 2017 governing the Notes (the
"Indenture) has been distributed to The Bank of New York Mellon, acting
through its London Branch, as Trustee (the "Trustee").
The outstanding Notes will be redeemed on November 7, 2022 (the "Redemption
Date") at an amount equal to 100% of their principal amount, together with any
accrued but unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (the
"Redemption Price"). Accordingly, the listing of the Notes on the New York
Stock Exchange will be cancelled on, or shortly after, November 7, 2022.
The location where Holders may surrender the Notes and obtain payment of the
Redemption Price is The Bank of New York Mellon, One Canada Square, London E14
5AL, United Kingdom, Attn: Corporate Trust Administration, Email:
corpsov1@bnymellon.com, Fax: +44 (0) 20 7964 2536.
On the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price will become due and payable and
interest on the Notes will cease to accrue. Before the Redemption Date, the
Group will irrevocably deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent an
amount of money sufficient to pay the total Redemption Price of each of the
Notes. When the Group makes such a deposit, all rights of holders of the Notes
will cease, except the holders' rights to receive the Redemption Price, but
without interest, and the Notes will no longer be outstanding.
