Proposed equity issue to fund accretive acquisitions

· £100 million equity raise to acquire an advanced pipeline of nine grocery assets for £216 million

· Builds on recent strategic progress to create one of the most efficient and scalable platforms for growth

· Supports SUPR's ambitions to double the size of its portfolio

Supermarket Income REIT plc today announces its intention to raise approximately £100 million of gross proceeds through the issue of new ordinary shares of £0.01 each (the "New Ordinary Shares") in the capital of the Company (the "Issue").

The Issue will comprise: (i) an institutional placing, that will be conducted through an accelerated book building process (the "Bookbuild") which will be launched immediately following this Announcement and will be made available to new and existing eligible investors (the "Placing"); (ii) a placing to selected qualifying investors in South Africa (the "South African Placing"); and (iii) a retail offer to be made via Retail Book, which will provide eligible existing and new retail investors in the UK with an opportunity to participate in the Issue (the "Retail Offer"). A separate announcement will be made shortly on the London Stock Exchange's Regulatory News Services ("RNS") by the Company regarding the Retail Offer and its terms. While the announcement regarding the Retail Offer and its terms will also be published on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange's ("JSE") Stock Exchange News Service ("SENS") by the Company for information purposes only, the Retail Offer will not be available to investors in South Africa.

The Placing is subject to the terms and conditions set out in Appendix 2 to this Announcement. Goldman Sachs International ("Goldman Sachs"), Peel Hunt LLP ("Peel Hunt") and Stifel Nicolaus Europe Limited ("Stifel") are acting as joint bookrunners (the "Joint Bookrunners") in respect of the Placing. PSG Capital Proprietary Limited ("PSG Capital") is acting as sole bookrunner and placing agent in respect of the South African Placing. The South African Placing will be made to South African Qualifying Investors (as defined below), in accordance with the terms of this Announcement applicable to the South African Placing and of the irrevocable undertakings (or commitments in such forms as may be permitted by the Company), pursuant to which South African Qualifying Investors agree to subscribe for New Ordinary Shares ("SA Placee Undertakings").

Rob Abraham, CEO of Supermarket Income REIT plc, commented:  

"This fundraise will enable us to continue executing SUPR's growth strategy, and is the latest step towards our ambition of doubling the size of our portfolio. The pipeline of assets will be earnings-enhancing and aligns with our portfolio strategy of acquiring well-located grocery assets with strong trading histories, let on resilient triple-net leases.

These acquisitions will build on the significant strategic progress that we have delivered over the last 18 months, having created one of the most efficient and scalable platforms for growth with one of the lowest EPRA cost ratios in the sector. We remain confident in the scale of opportunity in grocery real estate and will continue to build on our unique position as the leading landlord in the sector to grow and enhance returns for our shareholders."

Highlights

Background to the Issue

o In order to continue executing on its growth strategy and drive earnings growth, the Company expects imminently to acquire an attractive portfolio of three supermarkets (the "Acquisition Portfolio") for £118 million in aggregate at an average net initial yield ("NIY") of 6.9%[1], which is due to complete in September 2026:

o the Acquisition Portfolio comprises three well-established stores with strong trading histories, let on triple-net leases which are 100% inflation-linked and represent 100% investment grade income:

§ a Sainsbury's in Manchester with a rent of £34 per sq ft. and a 12 year unexpired lease term ("ULT");

§ a Tesco store in Edinburgh with a rent of £33 per sq ft. and a ULT of 5 years; and

§ a Tesco store in Halifax with a rent of £35 per sq ft. and a ULT of 8 years

o the Acquisition Portfolio's relatively short weighted average unexpired lease term ("WAULT") of 8 years and average rents of £34 per sq ft. represent regear opportunities to drive attractive total returns.

o The Company has a further pipeline of six UK grocery assets (the "Pipeline Assets") in the UK let to major grocers, with completion expected in the next three months for an aggregate consideration of £98 million. The Pipeline Assets include:

§ five UK supermarkets let primarily to investment grade tenants geographically spread across the UK, with a WAULT of 13 years and average rents of £26 per sq ft.; and

§ one grocery distribution asset let to an investment grade grocery tenant with a ULT of 15 years and rents of £14 per sq ft.

o The £100 million target size of the Issue, alongside prudent use of leverage, will enable the Company to purchase the Acquisition Portfolio and the Pipeline Assets, together "the Advanced Pipeline" for £216 million in aggregate.

o Combined, the Issue and purchase of the Advanced Pipeline are expected to be accretive to earnings per share from first full financial year with minimal NTA dilution, and are expected to deliver a reduction to the EPRA cost ratio.

o The Company remains committed to a maximum Loan to Value ("LTV") of 45%, and a net debt to EBITDA cover ratio expected to be 7-8x.

o The Issue is conditional upon, inter alia, the resolution required to implement the Issue being duly passed by holders of Ordinary Shares ("Shareholders") at the general meeting of the Company expected to be convened on or around 3 August 2026 (the "General Meeting").

o The purchase of the Advanced Pipeline represents a further step towards the Company achieving its overall ambition of doubling the portfolio whilst maintaining attractive investment fundamentals.

Recent strategic progress and trading

o Recent strategic progress made by the Company includes:

o Remaining capital deployed with the acquisition of two high quality foodstores for a total cost of £41.0 million (excluding acquisition costs), at an average NIY of 6.8%^{^[2]}.

• A Tesco-anchored retail park in Newport, purchased for £21.0 million at a 7.2% NIY^{^[3]}. The retail park has a WAULT of 12 years and the foodstore accounts for 81% of the value of the site with 5-yearly CPI-linked rent reviews (subject to a 3% cap and 0% floor)^{^[4]}.

• A Tesco store in Glastonbury, purchased for £20.0 million at a 6.4% NIY^{^[5]}. The foodstore benefits from a triple-net lease with an unexpired lease term of 11 years with annual RPI-linked rent reviews (subject to a 4% cap and 1% floor).

o Agreed terms for the renewal of the leases on two stores, with terms extended from a WAULT of seven years to 15 years and at rents broadly in line with ERV. One store was renewed at passing rent whilst the other had a 15% rent reduction. There are no rent-free periods or landlord capital contributions

• The revised lease terms and extended duration of income is expected to enhance total returns. The rent reduction is expected to be more than offset by contractual rental growth within the portfolio.

• The extensions increase the Company's WAULT by 0.2 years to 12 years, with 83% of rental income linked to inflation. The next material lease expiry is 2032.

o The refinancing of £445 million of existing debt facilities split between six lenders. The average margin is 1.18% above SONIA (drawn basis) representing an annual cost saving of £0.3 million and increasing the weighted average debt maturity from 2.9 years to 3.8 years.

o Whilst the Company expects to announce results for the year ended 30 June 2026 in September 2026, the Group's performance is in-line with our expectations.

Background to and reasons for the Issue

The Company has delivered a total shareholder return of c.29% since the management internalisation in March 2025. As at July 2026, the Company directly, and indirectly through its JV, owns 131 supermarket assets across the UK and France, with an aggregate value of £2 billion⁶ (the "Portfolio"). The Portfolio is predominantly let on full repairing and insuring lease terms, with 83% of leases subject to inflation-linked rent reviews. As at July 2026, the Portfolio generated an annualised passing rent roll of £129 million, with a current weighted averaged unexpired lease term of 12 years and net initial yield of 6.1%[6].

In March 2025, the Board, with shareholder approval, decided to internalise the management function of the Company, delivering at least £4 million per annum in cost savings and enhancing alignment with shareholders. The Company's EPRA cost ratio subsequently reduced from 13%, pre internalisation, to 9%, as at 31 December 2025, one of the lowest in the sector.

In April 2025, the Company formed a 50:50 joint venture with funds managed by Blue Owl Capital ("JV"). The JV was seeded with eight high yielding, omnichannel supermarket assets from the Company's existing portfolio. The assets were transferred to the vehicle at a 3% premium to book value. The JV portfolio had a value of £403 million on its establishment and has since increased to £845 million, following the transfer of £232 million of further assets into the JV and the JV's acquisition of ten Asda supermarkets. The JV marked the first key strategic initiative undertaken by the newly internalised management team to enhance shareholder returns and prudently recycle capital. The JV enabled the Company to drive significant earnings accretion through the redeployment of the capital received for the sale of assets to the JV and create an alliance with an experienced and proven strategic capital partner to grow assets within the vehicle up to £1 billion in the coming years.

On 24 July 2025, the Company announced the issuance of its debut £250 million unsecured bond at an attractive fixed rate of 5.125% and a six-year term. The bond issuance enabled the management team to identify and respond to attractive investment opportunities to further scale the business and enhance earnings.

On 14 November 2025, the Company completed a €123 million sale & leaseback acquisition of 20 omnichannel supermarkets in France with Carrefour, let at an attractive NIY of 6.6%. The Company's portfolio in France is now of significant scale, standing at €235 million⁶ across 46 assets geographically diversified across France.

On 18 March 2026, the Company announced that it had increased the JV's secured term loan with its syndicate of financing partners by £222 million. Following the refinancing, the JV's secured term loan balance was £437 million, and the interest cost is fixed for the duration of the facility at an all-in rate of 5.24%.

On 2 July 2026, the Company announced the refinancing of £445 million of existing debt facilities split between six lenders. The new facilities - a £375 million syndicate and £70 million bilateral - will refinance all of the Company's existing unsecured loan facilities maturing over the next two years. The average margin is 1.18% above SONIA (drawn basis) representing an annual cost saving of £0.3 million and increasing the weighted average debt maturity from 2.9 years to 3.8 years.

The Company is focused on creating shareholder value. The delivery of the strategic milestones set out above have contributed to a rerating in the share price, with Supermarket Income REIT plc currently trading at a premium to NAV.

Despite a challenging and competitive environment, the Group has demonstrated that it can continue to grow its Portfolio on accretive terms whilst being highly selective with its approach to acquisition opportunities. In addition to targeting omnichannel assets which operate both as physical supermarkets and online fulfilment centres, the Company also seeks to ensure that its assets benefit from a strong trading history, long unexpired lease terms, contractual upward-only rental uplifts, strong tenant covenants and geographic diversity.

The management team believes that the Company offers a highly attractive opportunity for investors to gain exposure to supermarket real estate. Supermarket real estate yields continue to represent an attractive investment opportunity, largely due to the growing levels of demand in the UK grocery market and the favourable supply and demand dynamics in the underlying real estate investment market.

As detailed above, in order to continue executing on its growth strategy and drive earnings growth, the Company has an Advanced Pipeline of nine assets with a combined value of £216 million, at an average NIY of 6.6% and has a 10 year WAULT and average rents of £28 per sq ft.

The Company's management team has undertaken its own preliminary due diligence and negotiations in connection with certain assets in the Pipeline Assets. Following Admission, the Directors may decide certain assets in the Pipeline Assets are not suitable for the Company and may or may not pursue any such opportunities, in their absolute discretion.

Use of proceeds

The £100 million target size of the Issue, alongside prudent use of leverage, will be used by the Company to fund the purchase of the Advanced Pipeline. These assets are expected to be accretive to earnings per share from the first full year following deployment and asset management initiatives including lease regears in the medium term are expected to drive attractive total returns.

Benefits of the Issue

The Directors believe that the Issue has the following principal benefits for Shareholders:

· the net proceeds will be used to invest in key operational properties, let to some of the largest UK supermarket operators, further diversifying the Portfolio, supplementing the Company's growing, index-linked income stream and capitalising on the Company's leading position as the largest landlord of omnichannel supermarkets in the UK;

· an increase in the Company's equity base should improve liquidity and enhance the marketability of the Ordinary Shares and result in a broader investor base (including geographically as a result of the South African Placing) over the longer term;

· growing rental income and a largely stable existing cost base is expected to reduce the EPRA cost ratio and support earnings accretion over time; and

· the Advanced Pipeline provides a compelling and sustainable income stream with a strong opportunity for enhanced valuation and earnings growth.

Financial Impact of the Issue

The Advanced Pipeline is in line with the Company's strategy of delivering attractive, secure and growing income with potential for long term capital growth by acquiring top-performing mission critical grocery stores. Combined, the Issue and purchase of the Advanced Pipeline are expected to be accretive to earnings in the first full year following deployment with minimal NTA dilution, and are expected to deliver a reduction to the EPRA cost ratio, further supporting dividend growth.

Details of the Issue

The Company is proposing to raise approximately £100 million to fund the purchase of the Advanced Pipeline, along with prudent use of leverage. In the event that the Company has demand from investors which exceeds £100 million, the Company may consider increasing the size of the Issue. Any decision to upsize would only be made after careful consideration of the prevailing market conditions. The total number of New Ordinary Shares to be issued pursuant to the Issue and the price at which the New Ordinary Shares are to be issued (the "Issue Price") will be announced by the Company at the close of the Bookbuild process.

Although the Company's non-pre-emptive authorities obtained at the Company's last annual general meeting held on 24 November 2025 are sufficient to allow the Issue to proceed, when it put those authorities to Shareholders, the Company stated that, unless Shareholder approval is obtained, Ordinary Shares will only be issued pursuant to those authorities for cash on a non-pre-emptive basis at a premium to the prevailing net asset value at the time of issue. Whilst the Company consulted, where possible, with certain of its major institutional Shareholders prior to this Announcement, who were supportive of the proposed Issue Price at a discount to net asset value, the Company considers it in the best interests of Shareholders to seek shareholder approval to allot Ordinary Shares pursuant to those authorities at a discount to net asset value. Accordingly, a resolution will be put to Shareholders at the General Meeting to that effect (the "Resolution"). Therefore, the Issue is conditional upon, inter alia, the passing of the Resolution.

The Company acknowledges that it is seeking to undertake the Issue on a non-pre-emptive basis pursuant to the Company's existing authorities. The Issue structure has been chosen as it minimises cost, time to completion and use of management time. Consultation with certain major institutional Shareholders has confirmed the Board's view that the Issue is in the best interests of Shareholders. The Company intends to respect the principles of pre-emption through the allocation process, while also allowing the participation of new investors, with allocations being in the Company's discretion.

The Issue is conditional, inter alia, upon:

· the Placing Agreement (as defined below) becoming unconditional in all respects (save for the condition therein relating to Admission (as defined below)) and not having been terminated in accordance with its terms prior to Admission;

· the passing of the Resolution at the General Meeting; and

· UK Admission (as defined below) becoming effective by not later than 8.00 a.m. (BST) on 5 August 2026 (or such later time and/or date as the Company, the Joint Bookrunners and PSG Capital may agree, being not later than 14 August 2026).

Accordingly, if any of the conditions are not satisfied, or, if applicable, waived, or if the Placing Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms prior to UK Admission, the Issue will not proceed and application monies will be returned to investors without interest as soon as possible.

The number of New Ordinary Sharesto be issued pursuant to the Issue will be determined following completion of the Bookbuild by agreement between the Company, the Joint Bookrunners and PSG Capital. Subject to pricing, preference may be given to the Company's existing shareholders seeking to participate in the Issue. Other criteria that may be considered, include, inter alia, the timing and size of bids by investors.

The Company expects to close the Bookbuild as soon as practicably possible on15 July 2026. Details of the Issue Price and the number of New Ordinary Shares will be announced as soon as practicable after the close of the Bookbuild.

The New Ordinary Shares will be issued in registered form and will be capable of being held in both certificated and uncertificated form.

Following the Issue and UK Admission, the New Ordinary Shares will be issued and credited as fully paid and will rank pari passu with the existing Ordinary Shares (save for any dividends or other distributions declared, made or paid on the Ordinary Shares by reference to a record date prior to the allotment of the New Ordinary Shares). The New Ordinary Shares issued pursuant to the Issue will not carry the right to receive the fourth quarterly dividend of the financial year ending 30 June 2026.

The Issue is not underwritten. The Issue may be scaled back (or increased) by the Directors for any reason, including where it is necessary to scale back (or increase) allocations to ensure the Issue proceeds align with the Company's post-fundraise acquisition and leverage targets.

Certain Directors and PDMRs of the Company (including Rob Abraham, CEO and Mike Perkins, CFO) intend to participate in the Issue to an aggregate value of approximately £180k at the Issue Price.

Details of the Placing

The Placing is subject to the terms and conditions set out in Appendix 2.

For the avoidance of doubt, the South African Placing is not subject to the terms and conditions set out in Appendix 2 but is subject to the terms of this Announcement and the SA Placee Undertakings.

The Placing Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and undertakings from the Company in favour of the Joint Bookrunners relating to the Group and its business. In addition, the Company has agreed to a customary indemnity in favour of the Joint Bookrunners and their affiliates in relation to certain liabilities they may incur in respect of the Placing.

Details of the Retail Offer

The Retail Offer will be available to eligible existing and new retail investors in the UK via Retail Book. The Retail Offer will not be available to investors outside the UK.

UK product governance

Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements contained within Chapter 3 of the FCA Handbook Production Intervention and Product Governance Sourcebook (the "UK Product Governance Requirements"), and disclaiming all and any liability, whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise, which any "manufacturer" (for the purposes of the UK Product Governance Requirements) may otherwise have with respect thereto, the New Ordinary Shares have been subject to a product approval process, which has determined that such securities are: (i) compatible with an end target market of investors who meet the criteria of retail investors and investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties, each as defined in paragraph 3 of the FCA Handbook Conduct of Business Sourcebook; and (ii) eligible for distribution through all distribution channels (the "Target Market Assessment"). Notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, distributors (for the purposes of UK Product Governance Requirements) should note that: (a) the price of the New Ordinary Shares may decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment; (b) the New Ordinary Shares offer no guaranteed income and no capital protection; and (c) an investment in the New Ordinary Shares is compatible only with investors who do not need a guaranteed income or capital protection, who (either alone or in conjunction with an appropriate financial or other adviser) are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such an investment and who have sufficient resources to be able to bear any losses that may result therefrom. The Target Market Assessment is without prejudice to the requirements of any contractual, legal or regulatory selling restrictions in relation to the Issue. Furthermore, it is noted that, notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, Joint Bookrunners will only procure investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties.

The EU Target Market Assessment is without prejudice to the requirements of any contractual, legal or regulatory selling restrictions in relation to the Issue. Furthermore, it is noted that, notwithstanding the EU Target Market Assessment, Joint Bookrunners will only procure investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties.

Details of the Placing Agreement and of the Placing Shares

In connection with the Placing, the Joint Bookrunners are acting as joint bookrunners and placing agents. PSG Capital is acting as sole bookrunner and placing agent in respect of the South African Placing. The Joint Bookrunners today entered into an agreement with the Company (the "Placing Agreement") under which, subject to the conditions set out therein, as agents for and on behalf of the Company, have conditionally agreed to use their reasonable endeavours to procure subscribers for the new ordinary shares of £0.01 each pursuant to the Placing (the "Placing Shares") in such number and at a price to be determined following completion of the Bookbuild (as defined below).

The Issue will comprise: (i) an institutional placing, which will be launched immediately following this Announcement and will be made available to new and existing eligible investors (the "Placing"); (ii) a placing to selected South African Qualifying Investors in South Africa (the "South African Placing"); and (iii) a retail offer to be made via RetailBook, which will provide eligible existing and new retail investors in the UK with an opportunity to participate in the Issue (the "Retail Offer"). For the avoidance of doubt, the Placing, the South African Placing and the Retail Offer are being conducted separately and neither the SA Placing Shares nor the Retail Offer Shares form part of the Placing and are not Placing Shares. The Joint Bookrunners are acting for the Company with respect to the Placing only and not the South African Placing or the Retail Offer.

Immediately following this Announcement, the Placing Shares are to be offered by way of an accelerated bookbuilding process which will be launched immediately following the release of the Announcement (the "Bookbuild"). The Bookbuild may close at any time after launch, at the discretion of the Joint Bookrunners and the Company. No commissions will be paid to Placees or by Placees in respect of any Placing Shares. This Appendix gives details of the terms and conditions of, and the mechanics of participation in, the Placing (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not the South African Placing which shall take place in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions set out in the Announcement and the SA Placee Undertakings (as defined below)).

The Joint Bookrunners and the Company shall be entitled to effect the Placing by such alternative method to the Bookbuild as they may, in their sole discretion, determine.

The timing and closing of the book and allocations are at the discretion of the Company and the Joint Bookrunners. The number of Placing Shares taken up under the Placing and the Issue Price will be announced as soon as practicable after the close of the Bookbuild.

The Placing Agreement contains customary undertakings and warranties given by the Company to the Joint Bookrunners as to matters relating to the Company and its business and a customary indemnity given by the Company to the Joint Bookrunners in respect of liabilities arising out of, or in connection with, the Placing.

Applications for listing and admission to trading

Applications will be made for the admission of the New Ordinary Shares to trading on London Stock Exchange plc's (the "London Stock Exchange") Main Market for listed securities (the "UK Admission") and to listing and trading on the JSE (the "JSE Admission", and together with the UK Admission, "Admission"). It is expected that the UK Admission will become effective at 8.00 a.m. (BST) on 5 August 2026 or such later time and date (being not later than 8.00 a.m. (BST) on 14 August 2026) as the Joint Bookrunners and the Company may agree, and that dealings in the Placing Shares will commence at that time. It is expected that the JSE Admission will become effective at 9.00 a.m. (South African Standard Time) on 5 August 2026 or such later time and date (being not later than 9.00 a.m. (South African Standard Time) on 14 August 2026) as PSG Capital and the Company may agree, and that dealings in the SA Placing Shares will commence at that time.

Bids may be scaled down on the basis referred to in paragraph (i) below.

f) A bid in the Bookbuild will be made on the terms and subject to the conditions in this Appendix and will be legally binding on the Placee on behalf of which it is made and, except with the consent the relevant Joint Bookrunner, will not be capable of variation or revocation after the time at which it is submitted. Each Placee will also have an immediate, separate, irrevocable and binding obligation, owed to the relevant Joint Bookrunner, to pay it (or as it may direct), as agent of the Company, in cleared funds, immediately on the settlement date in accordance with the registration and settlement requirements set out below, an amount equal to the product of the Issue Price and the number of Placing Shares that such Placee has agreed to subscribe for.

Subject to paragraph (f) above, the relevant Joint Bookrunner's oral or written confirmation to such prospective Placee will constitute an irrevocable legally binding commitment upon such person (who will at that point become a Placee) in favour of that Joint Bookrunner and the Company, under which such Placee agrees to subscribe for the number of Placing Shares allocated to it and to pay the Issue Price for each such Placing Share on the terms and conditions set out in this Appendix and in accordance with the Company's articles of association and each Placee will be deemed to have read and understood this Announcement (including the Appendices) in its entirety.

i) Subject to paragraphs (e) and (f) above, the Company will agree with the Joint Bookrunners the identity of the Placees and the basis of allocation of the Placing Shares and may scale down any bids for this purpose on such basis as it may determine.

The acceptance of bids shall be at the absolute discretion of the Joint Bookrunners, subject to the prior consent of the Company.

j) Except as required by law or regulation, no press release or other announcement will be made by the Joint Bookrunners or the Company using the name of any Placee (or its agent), in its capacity as Placee (or agent), other than with such Placee's prior written consent.

n) To the fullest extent permissible by law, neither the Joint Bookrunners nor the Company, nor any of its or their respective Affiliates, nor any of its or their respective Representatives shall have any responsibility or liability to any Placee (or to any other person whether acting on behalf of a Placee or otherwise) in connection with the Placing, the Placing Shares or otherwise. In particular, neither the Joint Bookrunners nor the Company, nor any of its or their respective Affiliates, nor any of its or their respective Representatives nor any person acting on behalf of any of them shall have any responsibility or liability (including to the fullest extent permissible by law, any fiduciary duties) in respect of any Joint Bookrunner's conduct of the Bookbuild or of such alternative method of effecting the Placing as each of the Joint Bookrunners and their respective Affiliates and the Company may agree.

o) The Placing Shares will be issued subject to the terms and conditions of this Announcement and each Placee's commitment to subscribe for Placing Shares on the terms set out herein will continue notwithstanding any amendment that may in future be made to the terms and conditions of the Placing and Placees will have no right to be consulted or require that their consent be obtained with respect to the Company's or the Joint Bookrunners' conduct of the Placing.

f) none of the warranties in the Placing Agreement being untrue, inaccurate or misleading at the date of the Placing Agreement and none of the warranties in the Placing Agreement having ceased to be true and accurate or having become misleading at any time following the date of the Placing Agreement up to and including the time of UK Admission with reference to the facts and circumstances which shall then exist, which in any such case is material in the context of the Issue;

g) prior to UK Admission, in the opinion of the Joint Bookrunners (acting in good faith) there having been no development or event (or no development or event involving a prospective change of which the Company is, or might reasonably be expected to be aware) which will or is likely to result in a material adverse change in, or affecting, the condition (financial, operational, legal or otherwise), management earnings, financial position, business affairs, solvency, operations or prospects of the Group taken as a whole; and

h) UK Admission having taken place by no later than 8.00 a.m. (BST) on 5 August 2026 (or such later date as the Company and the Joint Bookrunners may agree, being not later than the Longstop Date).

If (a) any of the conditions contained in the Placing Agreement are not fulfilled or waived by the Joint Bookrunners by the respective time or date where specified (or such later time or date as the Company and the Joint Bookrunners may agree being not later than the Longstop Date or (b) the Placing Agreement is terminated as described below) the Placing will lapse and the Placee's rights and obligations hereunder in relation to the Placing Shares shall cease and terminate at such time and each Placee agrees that no claim can be made by the Placee in respect thereof.

Neither the Joint Bookrunners nor the Company shall have any liability to any Placee (or to any other person whether acting on behalf of a Placee or otherwise) in respect of any decision they may make as to whether or not to waive or to extend the time and/or date for the satisfaction of any condition to the Placing nor for any decision they may make as to the satisfaction of any condition or in respect of the Placing generally and by participating in the Placing each Placee agrees that any such decision is within the absolute discretion of the Joint Bookrunners.

Right to terminate under the Placing Agreement

Any of the Joint Bookrunners is entitled, at any time before UK Admission, to terminate the Placing Agreement by giving notice to the Company in certain circumstances, including, inter alia:

a) in the opinion of that Joint Bookrunner (acting in good faith), the warranties are not true and accurate in any material respect or have become materially misleading (or would not be materially true and accurate or would be misleading if they were repeated at any time before UK Admission) by reference to the facts then subsisting at the relevant time; or

b) in the opinion of that Joint Bookrunner (acting in good faith), the Company fails to comply with any of its obligations under the Placing Agreement; or

c) in the opinion of that Joint Bookrunner (acting in good faith), there has been a development or event (or any development or event involving a prospective change of which the Company is, or might reasonably be expected to be, aware) which will or is likely to result in any material adverse change (financial, operational, legal or otherwise), earnings, financial position, business affairs, solvency, operations or prospects of the Group taken as a whole; or

d) in the opinion of that Joint Bookrunner (acting in good faith), there has been a change in national or international financial, political, economic or stock market conditions (primary or secondary); an incident of terrorism, outbreak or escalation of hostilities, war, declaration of martial law or any other calamity or crisis; an epidemic or pandemic; a suspension or material limitation in trading of securities generally on any stock exchange; any change in currency exchange rates or exchange controls or a disruption of settlement systems or a material disruption in commercial banking in each case as would be likely to prejudice the success of the Placing.

If a Joint Bookrunner but not all of the Joint Bookrunners serves notice to terminate the Placing Agreement, the other Joint Bookrunners (the "Non-Terminating Bookrunners") may, in their absolute discretion and without obligation, within 24 hours thereafter elect by giving written notice to the Company to allow the Placing and UK Admission to proceed, subject to any additional requirements of the Non-Terminating Bookrunners or applicable law or regulation (including the POATR, the UK Listing Rules, MAR and the rules of the London Stock Exchange) and on the basis that all references to the Joint Bookrunners in the Placing Agreement shall be deemed to be references to the Non-Terminating Bookrunner(s). The Terminating Bookrunner shall have no responsibility or liability to the Non-Terminating Bookrunner(s) or the Company for any consequences resulting from its decision to terminate or the timing thereof. If no Non-Terminating Bookrunner(s) elect(s) to continue within such 24 hour period, then the Placing Agreement will automatically terminate with immediate effect upon the expiry of such period or, if earlier, upon the Non-Terminating Bookrunner(s) giving notice to the Company terminating the Placing Agreement.

Following UK Admission, the Placing Agreement is not capable of termination to the extent that it relates to the Placing of the Placing Shares.

The rights and obligations of the Placees shall terminate only in the circumstances described in these terms and conditions and in the Placing Agreement and will not be subject to termination by the Placee or any prospective Placee at any time or in any circumstances. By participating in the Placing, Placees agree that the exercise by the Joint Bookrunners of any right of termination or other discretion under the Placing Agreement shall be within the absolute discretion of the Joint Bookrunners, and that it need not make any reference to Placees and that it shall have no liability to Placees whatsoever in connection with any such exercise or decision not to exercise. Placees will have no rights against the Joint Bookrunners, the Company or any of their respective directors or employees under the Placing Agreement pursuant to the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 (as amended).

Lock-up

The Company has undertaken to the Joint Bookrunners that, between the date of the Placing Agreement and the date which is 90 calendar days after Admission, it will not, enter into certain transactions involving or relating to the Ordinary Shares, without the prior written consent of the Joint Bookrunners (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

By participating in the Placing, Placees agree that the exercise by the Joint Bookrunners of any power to grant consent to waive the aforementioned undertaking by the Company shall be within the absolute discretion of the Joint Bookrunners and that they need not make any reference to, or consult with, Placees and that they shall have no liability to Placees whatsoever in connection with any such exercise of the power to grant consent

Registration and Settlement

Settlement of transactions in the Placing Shares (ISIN: GB00BF345X11) following UK Admission will take place within CREST, using the delivery versus payment mechanism, subject to certain exceptions. The Company and the Joint Bookrunners reserve the right to require settlement for, and delivery of, the Placing Shares (or a portion thereof) to Placees by such other means that they deem necessary if delivery or settlement is not possible or practicable within CREST within the timetable set out in this Announcement or would not be consistent with the regulatory requirements in the Placee's jurisdiction.

Following the close of the Bookbuild for the Placing and the holding of the General Meeting, each Placee to be allocated Placing Shares in the Placing will be sent an electronic contract note/trade confirmation in accordance with the standing arrangements in place with the relevant Joint Bookrunner stating the number of Placing Shares to be allocated to it at the Issue Price, the aggregate amount owed by such Placee to that Joint Bookrunner and settlement instructions. It is expected that such electronic contract note/trade confirmation will be despatched on 3 August 2026 and that this will also be the trade date.

Each Placee agrees that it will do all things necessary to ensure that delivery and payment is completed in accordance with either the standing CREST or certificated settlement instructions that it has in place with the relevant Joint Bookrunner. In the event of any difficulties or delays in the admission of the Placing Shares to CREST or the use of CREST in relation to the Placing, the Company and the Joint Bookrunners may agree that the Placing Shares will be issued in certificated form.

Placees should match and settle against the CREST ID provided to them by the relevant Joint Bookrunner that the relevant Placee is settling with. The input to CREST by a Placee of a matching or acceptance instruction will then allow delivery of the relevant Placing Shares to that Placee against payment.

It is expected that settlement will be on 5 August 2026 on a T+2 basis in accordance with the instructions given to the relevant Joint Bookrunner, where T will be the date of the General Meeting, being 3 August 2026.

Interest is chargeable daily on payments not received from Placees on the due date in accordance with the arrangements set out above at the rate of two (2) percentage points above SONIA as determined by the Joint Bookrunners.

Each Placee agrees that, if it does not comply with these obligations, the Joint Bookrunners (each acting as agents for and on behalf of the Company) may sell any or all of the Placing Shares allocated to that Placee on such Placee's behalf and retain from the proceeds, for the Company's account and benefit, an amount equal to the aggregate amount owed by the Placee plus any interest due. The relevant Placee will, however, remain liable for any shortfall below the aggregate amount owed by it and shall be required to bear any Transfer Taxes imposed in any jurisdiction which may arise upon the sale of such Placing Shares on such Placee's behalf. By communicating a bid for Placing Shares, each Placee confers on the Joint Bookrunners all such authorities and powers necessary to carry out any such transaction and agrees to ratify and confirm all actions which any Joint Bookrunner lawfully takes in pursuance of such sale.

If Placing Shares are to be delivered to a custodian or settlement agent, Placees should ensure that, upon receipt, the electronic contract note/trade confirmation is copied and delivered immediately to the relevant person within that organisation. Insofar as Placing Shares are registered in a Placee's name or that of its nominee or in the name of any person for whom a Placee is contracting as agent or that of a nominee for such person, such Placing Shares should, subject as provided below, be so registered free from any liability to UK stamp duty or UK stamp duty reserve tax. If there are any circumstances in which any other Transfer Taxes are payable in respect of the allocation, allotment, issue or delivery of the Placing Shares (or, for the avoidance of doubt if any stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax is payable in connection with any subsequent transfer of or agreement to transfer Placing Shares), neither the Joint Bookrunners nor the Company shall be responsible for the payment of such amounts.

No offering document or prospectus

No offering document, prospectus, offering memorandum or admission document has been or will be prepared or submitted to be approved by any competent authority or stock exchange in any jurisdiction (including the FCA and the London Stock Exchange).

Placees' commitments will be made solely on the basis of publicly available information taken together with the information contained in this Announcement and the business and financial information that the Company is required to publish in accordance with the UK MAR and the rules and practices of the London Stock Exchange and/or the FCA ("Exchange Information") previously published by or on behalf of the Company simultaneously with or prior to the date of this Announcement, and subject to the further terms set forth in the electronic contract note/trade confirmation to be provided to individual prospective Placees.

Each Placee, by accepting a participation in the Placing, agrees that the content of this Announcement and the publicly available information previously and simultaneously released by or on behalf of the Company are exclusively the responsibility of the Company and confirms to the Company and the Joint Bookrunners that it has neither received nor relied on any other information, representation, warranty or statement made by or on behalf of the Company (other than publicly available information or the Exchange Information), the Joint Bookrunners, any of each of their respective Affiliates, any of its or their respective Representatives or any person acting on behalf of any of them. None of the Company, the Joint Bookrunners nor any of their respective Affiliates nor any of its or their respective Representatives nor any person acting on behalf of any of them will be liable for any Placee's decision to participate in the Placing based on any other information, representation, warranty or statement which the Placees may have obtained or received (regardless of whether or not such information, representation, warranty or statement was given or made by or on behalf of any such persons). By participating in the Placing, each Placee acknowledges and agrees that it has relied on its own investigation of the business, financial or other position of the Company in accepting a participation in the Placing. Nothing in this paragraph shall exclude or limit the liability of any person for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation by that person.

Each Placee should not consider any information in this Announcement to be legal, tax or business advice. Each Placee should consult its own solicitor, tax adviser and financial adviser for independent legal, tax and financial advice regarding an investment in the Placing Shares. Nothing in this paragraph shall exclude the liability of any person for fraudulent misrepresentation

Payment for Shares

Each Placee must pay the Issue Price for the Placing Shares issued to the Placee in the manner and by the time directed by the relevant Joint Bookrunner. If any Placee fails to pay as so directed and/or by the time directed, the relevant Placee's application for Placing Shares shall at such Joint Bookrunner's discretion either be rejected or accepted.

mm) by becoming registered as a holder of Ordinary Shares a person becomes a data subject (as defined in the DP Legislation). In providing the Registrar with information, it hereby represents and warrants to the Registrar that it has (i) notified any data subject of the Purposes for which personal data will be used and by which parties it will be used and it has provided a copy of the Company's Privacy Notice and any other data protection notice which has been provided by the Company and/or the Registrar; and (ii) where consent is legally required under applicable DP Legislation, it has obtained the consent of any data subject to the Registrar and their respective associates holding and using their personal data for the Purposes (including the explicit consent of the data subjects for the processing of any sensitive personal data for the Purposes set out above);

nn) it acknowledges that by submitting personal data to the Registrar (acting for and on behalf of the Company) where it is not a natural person it represents and warrants that:

a. it has brought the Company's Privacy Notice to the attention of any underlying data subjects on whose behalf or account it may act or whose persona data will be disclosed to the Company as a result of it agreeing to subscribe for Ordinary Shares; and

pp) the Joint Bookrunners and the Company are entitled to exercise any of their rights under the Placing Agreement or any other right in their absolute discretion without any liability whatsoever to it;

qq) the representations, undertakings and warranties contained in this document are irrevocable. It acknowledges that the Joint Bookrunners and the Company and their respective Affiliates will rely upon the truth and accuracy of the foregoing representations and warranties and it agrees that if any of the representations or warranties made or deemed to have been made by its subscription of the Placing Shares are no longer accurate, it shall promptly notify the Joint Bookrunners and the Company;

"THE ORDINARY SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN AND WILL NOT BE REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), OR UNDER ANY SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED STATES AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT (1) IN AN OFFSHORE TRANSACTION IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 903 OR RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, (2) in the United States to a QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER AS DEFINED IN RULE 144a UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT ("QIB") pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, it being understood that all offers or solicitations in connection with such a transfer are limited to QIBs and do not involve any means of "general solicitation or general advertising" (within the meaning of Rule 502(c) under the Securities Act), (3) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144 THEREUNDER (IF AVAILABLE) OR (4) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR IN ANOTHER TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM, OR NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT IN THE OPINION OF QUALIFIED COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY, TO PURCHASERS THAT ARE QUALIFIED PURCHASERS PURSUANT TO THE US INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT OF 1940, IN EACH CASE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION OF, THE UNITED STATES.

NO REPRESENTATION CAN BE MADE AS TO THE AVAILABILITY OF THE EXEMPTION PROVIDED BY RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT FOR RESALES OF THE ORDINARY SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY. THE ORDINARY SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY ARE "RESTRICTED SECURITIES" WITHIN THE MEANING OF RULE 144(a)(3) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND FOR SO LONG AS SUCH SHARES ARE "RESTRICTED SECURITIES", THEY MAY NOT BE DEPOSITED INTO ANY UNRESTRICTED DEPOSITARY RECEIPT FACILITY IN RESPECT OF THE ORDINARY SHARES ESTABLISHED OR MAINTAINED BY A DEPOSITARY BANK. EACH HOLDER, BY ITS ACCEPTANCE OF ORDINARY SHARES, REPRESENTS THAT IT UNDERSTANDS AND AGREES TO THE FOREGOING RESTRICTIONS."

d) in formulating a decision to invest in the Company, it has not relied or acted on the basis of any representations or other information purported to be given on behalf of the Company except as set forth herein (it being understood that no person has been authorised by the Company to furnish any such representations or other information);

e) it recognises that there is currently no public market in the United States for the Placing Shares and that such a market in the United States is not expected to develop; its overall commitment to the Company and other investments which are not readily marketable is not disproportionate to its net worth and it has no need for immediate liquidity in its investment in the Placing Shares;

f) it can afford a complete loss of its investment in the Company and can afford to hold its investment in the Company for an indefinite period of time;

g) it has not been and will not be formed or "recapitalised" for the specific purpose of purchasing the Placing Shares and has substantial assets in addition to the funds to be used to purchase the Placing Shares;

i) it is a QIB, an Accredited Investor and a Qualified Purchaser;

j) it has been given the opportunity to (A) ask questions of, and receive answers from the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the Placing and other matters pertaining to an investment in the Company and (B) obtain any additional information that the Company can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense as it may require to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the Company, and all such questions, to the extent it has considered them material, have been answered;

k) it understands that no United States federal or state agency has passed upon the merits or risks of an investment in the Placing Shares or made any finding or determination concerning the fairness or advisability of this investment or adequacy of this document; and

l) if all or part of the funds that it is using or will use to acquire Placing Shares are assets of an employee benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA subject to Title I of ERISA, or a plan described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code, or an entity whose underlying assets include plan assets for purposes of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code by reason of a plan's investment in the entity:

a. its acquisition of Placing Shares is permissible under the documents governing the investment of such plan assets;

b. it has concluded that the acquisition of Placing Shares is consistent with applicable fiduciary responsibilities under ERISA including ERISA's prudence and diversification requirements, if applicable and other applicable law; and

c. its acquisition and the subsequent holding of Placing Shares do not and will not constitute a non-exempt "prohibited transaction" within the meaning of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.

Supply and disclosure of information

If the Joint Bookrunners or the Registrar or the Company or any of their agents request any information about a Placee's agreement to subscribe for Placing Shares under the Placing, such Placee must promptly disclose it to them and ensure that such information is complete and accurate in all respects.

Miscellaneous

a) The rights and remedies of the Company, the Joint Bookrunners and the Registrar under these terms and conditions are in addition to any rights and remedies which would otherwise be available to each of them and the exercise or partial exercise of one will not prevent the exercise of others.

b) On application, if a Placee is a discretionary fund manager, that Placee may be asked to disclose in writing or orally the jurisdiction in which its funds are managed or owned. All documents provided in connection with the Placing will be sent at the Placee's risk. They may be returned by post to such Placee at the address notified by such Placee.

c) Each Placee agrees to be bound by the Articles of Association (as amended from time to time) once the Placing Shares, which the Placee has agreed to subscribe for pursuant to the Placing, have been acquired by the Placee. The contract to subscribe for Placing Shares under the Placing and the appointments and authorities mentioned in this document and all disputes and claims arising out of or in connection with its subject matter or formation (including non-contractual disputes or claims) will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of England and Wales. For the exclusive benefit of the Company, the Joint Bookrunners and the Registrar, each Placee irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales and waives any objection to proceedings in any such court on the ground of venue or on the ground that proceedings have been brought in an inconvenient forum. This does not prevent an action being taken against the Placee in any other jurisdiction.

d) In the case of a joint agreement to subscribe for Placing Shares under the Placing, references to a "Placee" in these terms and conditions are to each of the Placees who are a party to that joint agreement and their liability is joint and several.

e) The Joint Bookrunners and the Company expressly reserve the right to modify the Placing (including, without limitation, the timetable and settlement) at any time before allocations are determined. The Placing is subject to the satisfaction of the conditions contained in the Placing Agreement and the Placing Agreement not having been terminated.
