The Company intends to cancel the purchased Ordinary Shares.

 

Such share purchases form part of the Company's existing buyback programme and
were effected pursuant to the non-discretionary agreement entered into with
the Broker, as announced on 1 May 2026.

 

Following the cancellation of the repurchased Ordinary Shares, the Company
will have 175,243,178 Ordinary Shares in issue (excluding treasury shares),
hold 42,041 Ordinary Shares in treasury, and have 594,610,458 non-cumulative
redeemable preference shares of 0.1 pence each in the Company ("B Shares") in
issue. B Shares carry no rights to attend, speak or vote at Company meetings,
except on a resolution relating to the winding up of the Company.

 

Once the Ordinary Shares are cancelled, the total number of voting rights in
the Company will be 175,243,178. This figure may be used by shareholders of
the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they can
determine if they are required to notify their interest, or a change to their
interest, in the Company pursuant to the Disclosure and Transparency Rules
(the "DTRs").

 

The Company confirms that, in accordance with DTR 5.5.1R, following the
cancellation of the repurchased Ordinary Shares the percentage of voting
rights attributable to the Ordinary Shares held in treasury will be 0.02 per
cent.
