Transaction in Own Shares

Vodafone announces that it has purchased the following number of its ordinary
shares of 20(20/21) US cents on Exchange (as defined in the Rules of the
London Stock Exchange) from Goldman Sachs International ('Goldman Sachs') as
part of its buy-back programme announced on 16 November 2022 (the
'Programme'). The sole purpose of this Programme is to reduce the issued share
capital of Vodafone to offset the increase in the issued share capital as a
result of the maturing of the second tranche of a two-tranche mandatory
convertible bond ('MCB') issued by Vodafone in March 2019. Following
completion of the Programme, the increase in the issued share capital as a
result of the maturing of the second tranche of the MCB will be fully offset.

 Date of purchase:                                                15 February 2023
 Number of ordinary shares of 20(20/21) US cents each purchased:  172,918

 Volume weighted average price paid per share (pence):            97.99

 

Vodafone intends to hold the purchased shares in treasury. Following the
purchase of these shares, Vodafone holds 1,693,561,270 of its ordinary shares
in treasury and has 27,124,694,788 ordinary shares in issue (excluding
treasury shares).

As part of the Programme, Goldman Sachs purchases Vodafone
(213800TB53ELEUKM7Q61) ordinary shares and sells such shares to Vodafone. In
connection with the above purchases, on 15 February 2023 Goldman Sachs (as
