TBC Bank Group PLC 

EBT Share Purchase

Further to its announcement of 10 May 2024, TBC Bank Group PLC ("the "Company") has been notified that Apex Fiduciary Services Limited, the trustee of its Employee Benefit Trust (the "EBT"), has on 17 May 2024 purchased 80,000 ordinary shares of 1p each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") at an average price of 2705.2752 pence per Ordinary Share.

These Ordinary Shares are to be held in the EBT and are intended to be used to satisfy the awards of share options granted to employees of the Company. The EBT is a discretionary trust for the benefit of the Company's employees, including the Directors of the Company.

Subsequent to the announcement of the share buyback on 10 May 2024, TBC PLC determined that rather than acquiring and then transferring the shares to the EBT, that the EBT will acquire shares directly.  All other aspects of the announcement of 10 May 2024 remain unchanged.

Further updates will be made as required.
