This notification relates to transactions notified in accordance with Article

Sage announces that on 1 February 2026, Aaron Harris and Walid Abu-Hadba,
each, a person discharging managerial responsibilities for Sage, and Amy
Cosgrove, a PCA to Aaron Harris, acquired rights to purchase ordinary shares
of 1(4/77) pence each in Sage ("Ordinary Shares") under the Sage Colleague
Share Purchase Plan (the "CSPP"). The CSPP is an all-employee share plan
operated for Sage's US employees. The share purchase will occur, subject to
and in accordance with the CSPP rules, at the end of a 6-month offering period
("Offering Period"), on 3 August 2026.

 

In accordance with the CSPP rules, participants make monthly contributions
during the Offering Period and, at the end of the Offering Period, use such
contributions to fund the purchase price per Ordinary Share at a purchase
price equal to the lesser of 85% of the fair market value of an Ordinary Share
as at (i) the award date, being 1 February 2026 and (ii) the purchase date,
being 3 August 2026. Aaron Harris, Walid Abu-Hadba and Amy Cosgrove have each
elected to contribute USD 1,000 per month. These contributions will be
converted from USD to GBP using the prevailing exchange rate at the time of
purchase.
