TRITAX BIG BOX REIT PLC

(the " Company " and, together with its subsidiaries, the "Group")

Proposed placing and development update

Accelerating the development opportunity in response to unprecedented market strength in the UK

The Board of Directors (the "Board") of Tritax Big Box REIT plc (ticker: BBOX), a leading investor in and developer of high-quality large scale logistics real estate in the UK , today announces a proposed placing of new ordinary shares ("Placing Shares") in the Company to institutional investors (the "Placing").

The Placing is being conducted through an accelerated bookbuild which will be launched immediately following release of this announcement by Jefferies International Limited ("Jefferies") and J.P. Morgan Securities plc, which conducts its UK investment banking activities as J.P. Morgan Cazenove ("J.P. Morgan Cazenove"), who are acting as joint bookrunners in connection with the Placing. Jefferies and J .P. Morgan Cazenove together with Akur Limited ("Akur") are also acting as joint financial advisers to the Company.

In addition to the Placing, there will be a separate offer made by the Company of new Ordinary Shares via the PrimaryBid platform (the "Retail Offer Shares") at the Placing Price (as defined below) (the "Retail Offer"), to provide retail investors in the UK only with an opportunity to acquire Retail Offer Shares. A separate announcement will be made shortly regarding the Retail Offer and its terms.

In conjunction with the Placing, certain Directors of the Company intend to subscribe for, in aggregate, up to approximately 40,000 new Ordinary Shares in the Company, depending on the Placing Price, either pursuant to the Placing or via direct subscriptions with the Company (the "Subscriptions"), in each case at the Placing Price (as defined below).

It is intended that the Placing, the Retail Offer and the Subscriptions (together, the "Issue") will result in the Company raising targeted gross proceeds of approximately GBP300 million. The total number of Placing Shares, Retail Offer Shares and new Ordinary Shares to be issued pursuant to the Subscriptions (together, the "New Ordinary Shares") is expected to represent approximately 8 per cent of the Company's existing issued ordinary share capital.

Issue highlights

-- Proposed Issue to raise gross proceeds of approximately GBP300 million, representing approximately 8% of the Company's issued share capital at a price to be agreed between the Company and the Joint Bookrunners (as defined below) following the closing of the accelerated bookbuild exercise being undertaken in connection with the Placing] (the "Placing Price").

-- The net proceeds of the Issue (the "Net Proceeds"), together with associated leverage and anticipated near term investment disposals, are expected to generate c.GBP530 million of additional funding capacity to be used primarily to accelerate the Company's development programme.

-- The New Ordinary Shares will be entitled to the next quarterly dividend declared by the Company for the quarter ending 30 September 2021.

Accelerating levels of development activity supported by unprecedented market strength in the UK

-- Market conditions in the UK's logistics sector remain very favourable, supported by strengthening structural drivers, occupational and investment demand at unprecedented levels and an acute supply shortage currently resulting in approximately four years' worth of unsatisfied occupational demand.

-- Such occupational demand is demonstrated by active discussions with occupiers across approximately 7.0 million sq ft of consented land and recent lettings to Ikea at Littlebrook and HarperCollins at Glasgow, totaling 1.0 million sq ft, providing a strong underpin to the 1.5 million sq ft of speculative development in progress or planned to commence imminently.

-- With an increased number of sites benefiting from planning consent and in a credible delivery state, the Company believes it is well positioned to capitalise on the current acute occupational supply/demand imbalance.

Opportunity to accelerate income growth at an attractive yield on cost

-- The Company controls what it believes to be the UK's largest logistics-focused land portfolio with the ability to develop assets at a yield on cost of 6-8% compared to current prime investment yields of below 4% in the market.

-- The Company expects to accelerate its investment into pre-let development projects, speculative developments and to make further investment in drawing down of land and associated infrastructure works.

-- These projects are expected to deliver approximately 4.7 million sq ft of new logistics space, constructed to the highest sustainability standards, targeting GBP34 million of potential incremental contracted annual rent from development activity.

-- The Company will also continue to appraise potential investment acquisitions on an opportunistic basis, in line with its Investment Policy.

Delivering attractive returns and maintaining balance sheet strength

-- Development activity funded by the Issue is expected to be accretive to earnings, dividend and net asset value per share.

-- Taking into account the financial effects of the Issue and its deployment in isolation, and excluding the impact of future rental growth and yield movements, the targeted development activity and associated GBP34 million of additional rental income, on a proforma basis, would be expected by the Company to generate, upon stabilisation:

o Growth in adjusted earnings per share of approximately 12%;

o Growth in dividends per share of approximately 12%; and

o Growth in EPRA NTA per share of approximately 7%

Note: These are illustrative returns only which seek to highlight the pro forma impact of the deployment of the Net Proceeds, assuming inter alia all properties are developed and fully let, no further changes to capital structure and without taking into account future ordinary course of business items (including acquisitions, disposals, asset management and additional debt). None of these figures constitute a profit forecast and there can be no assurance that these illustrative returns (or any returns) will be achieved by the Company. Accordingly, they should not be taken as an indication of estimated or actual future results and potential investors should place no reliance on these illustrative figures in deciding whether to invest in the Company. The Company's actual results may be positively or negatively affected by factors beyond the control of the Company and the actual returns generated by the Company may prove to be materially lower than the illustrative returns set out above.

-- The Company expects to continue its disciplined approach to balance sheet management, maintaining its LTV target range of 30-35% over the medium term.

Colin Godfrey, CEO, Fund Management, said:

"Over the past two years our logistics focused land portfolio, which we believe to be the largest in the UK, has continued to mature with planning consents successfully secured in a range of attractive locations across the UK. The portfolio is now primed to capture the significant increase in demand we are currently experiencing, with occupier activity now reaching levels that has the potential to exceed our original expectations of 2-3 million sq ft of annual development over the medium term. This equity fundraise provides us with the capital to accelerate our development activity while preserving overall balance sheet strength and continuing to deliver attractive returns to shareholders."

Market update

The logistics market in the UK continues to strengthen, driven by long-term structural changes such as the rise of e-commerce, greater supply chain efficiencies and the need for increased resilience. The first half of 2021 saw record levels of take up of 24.4 million sq ft, 82% above the long-term average, while corresponding supply fell at its fastest pace resulting in a national vacancy rate of 2%(1) .

Development update

-- 1.0 million sq ft of development lettings recently agreed, securing GBP8.2 million of new contracted rent across the following sites:

o 0.5 million sq ft at Littlebrook, Phase 1. This asset has been let during construction on a new 15-year lease to Ikea. The lease benefits from annual rent reviews linked to CPI (2% - 4%).

o 0.6 million sq ft pre-let to HarperCollins in Glasgow. This asset has been let on a new 15-year lease and benefits from 5-yearly rent reviews linked to CPI (2% - 4%).

-- 0.6 million of speculative construction commenced, of which 0.1 million sq ft has been let during early phase construction, securing GBP0.8 million of new contracted rent. The Company believes that the remaining units are capable of delivering GBP3.6 million of additional annual rent.

-- 0.9 million sq ft of further speculative construction expected to start in H2 2021, potentially adding an additional GBP6.5 million of annual rent. In addition, a further 0.1 million sq ft has been pre-sold to an owner occupier.

-- Near-term development pipeline of 10.4 million sq ft, of which approximately 87% had planning consent at 30 June 2021.

Use of proceeds

The Net Proceeds, together with associated leverage and near-term disposals, are expected to generate up to c.GBP530 million of additional funding capacity. This will primarily be used to accelerate the Company's development programme with a targeted timeframe for commitment over the next 12 months, comprising:

-- Up to c.GBP450 m illion of expected development capex, of which c.50% is already committed or expected to be committed in the near term, broadly split evenly across the following:

o Pre-let (or let during construction) development opportunities targeting 2.2 million sq ft of construction activity

o Speculative development opportunities targeting 2.5 million sq ft of construction activity

o Investment in land and infrastructure to bring forward new schemes ready for future development

-- Up to c.GBP80 million allocated towards expected investment and asset management capex targeting 0.5 million sq ft of new space .

The Company expects the new development projects to have the potential to add c.GBP34 million of incremental rent, in aggregate, and c.4.7 million sq ft of additional space when delivered .

Expected benefits and financial impacts

The Issue will allow the Company to accelerate its development programme which is expected to be accretive to earnings, dividend and net asset value per share.

Taking into account the financial effects of the Issue and its deployment in isolation, and excluding the impact of future rental growth and yield movements, the targeted development activity and associated GBP34 million of additional rental income, on a proforma basis, would be expected by the Company to generate, upon stabilisation:

o Growth in adjusted earnings per share of approximately 12%, based off the last twelve months EPS of 7.3 pence (being the sum total of the adjusted earnings per share for the six-month periods ending 31 December 2020 and 30 June 2021 respectively and excluding Development Management Agreement income in excess of the Company's stated guidance range);

o Growth in dividends per share of approximately 12% (compared to the sum total of the dividends declared for the six-month periods ending 31 December 2020 and 30 June 2021 respectively); and

o Growth in EPRA NTA per share of approximately 7%.

Note: These are illustrative returns only which seek to highlight the pro forma impact of the deployment of the Net Proceeds, assuming inter alia all properties are developed and fully let, no further changes to capital structure and without taking into account future ordinary course of business items (including acquisitions, disposals, asset management and additional debt). None of these figures constitute a profit forecast and there can be no assurance that these illustrative returns (or any returns) will be achieved by the Company. Accordingly, they should not be taken as an indication of estimated or actual future results and potential investors should place no reliance on these illustrative figures in deciding whether to invest in the Company. The Company's actual results may be positively or negatively affected by factors beyond the control of the Company and the actual returns generated by the Company may prove to be materially lower than the illustrative returns set out in this announcement.

Details of the Placing

Jefferies and J.P. Morgan Cazenove are acting as joint bookrunners (the "Joint Bookrunners") to the Company in connection with the Placing.

The Placing is subject to the terms and conditions set out in the appendix to this announcement (which forms part of this announcement, together the "Announcement"). The Retail Offer will be made on the terms outlined in a separate announcement to be made shortly regarding the Retail Offer and its terms.

The Joint Bookrunners will today commence a bookbuilding process in respect of the Placing (the "Bookbuild"). The Placing Price will be decided at the close of the Bookbuild. The book will open with immediate effect following this Announcement. The timing of the closing of the book, pricing and allocations are at the discretion of the Joint Bookrunners and the Company. Details of the Placing Price, the number of Placing Shares and the number of Retail Offer Shares will be announced as soon as practicable after the close of the Bookbuild.

The New Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing Ordinary Shares and each other, and will rank in full for all dividends made, paid or declared in respect of the Ordinary Shares by reference to a record date after their issue, including the next quarterly dividend for the quarter ending 30 September 2021 which is expected to be declared in October 2021.

The Issue is not underwritten. The number of New Ordinary Shares shall not exceed 9.9% of the current issued share capital of the Company. The Placing may be scaled back by the Company for any reason.

Applications will be made to the FCA for the New Ordinary Shares to be admitted to the premium listing segment of the Official List and to the London Stock Exchange for the New Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on its main market for listed securities ( "Admission") . It is expected that Admission will become effective on 4 October 2021 and that dealings in the New Ordinary Shares will commence at 8.00 a.m. on the same day.

The Placing is conditional, among other things, upon Admission becoming effective and the placing agreement entered into today between, amongst others, the Company, Tritax Management LLP (the "Manager"), the Joint Bookrunners, and Akur (the "Placing Agreement") not being terminated in accordance with its terms. The appendix sets out further information relating to the Bookbuild and the terms and conditions of the Placing.

Prior to launch of the Placing, the Company consulted with a significant number of its shareholders to gauge their feedback as to the proposed terms of the Placing. Feedback from this consultation was supportive and as a result the Board has chosen to proceed with the Placing. The Placing is being structured as a Bookbuild to minimise execution and market risk. The Board intends to apply the principles of pre-emption when allocating Placing Shares to existing shareholders that participate in the Placing. The New Ordinary Shares will be issued pursuant to the allotment and disapplication of pre-emption authorities that Shareholders granted to the Company at its annual general meeting on 5 May 2021.

Information to Distributors

Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements contained within: (a) EU Directive 2014/65/EU on markets in financial instruments, as amended ("MiFID II"); (b) Articles 9 and 10 of Commission Delegated Directive (EU) 2017/593 supplementing MiFID II; (c) local implementing measures within the European Economic Area; and (d) local implementing measures in the United Kingdom as they form part of UK domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018, as amended, and regulations made under that Act (together, the "MiFID II Product Governance Requirements"), and disclaiming all and any liability, whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise, which any "manufacturer" (for the purposes of the MiFID II 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 the New Ordinary Shares are: (i) compatible with an end target market of retail investors and investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties, each as defined in MiFID II; and (ii) eligible for distribution through all distribution channels as are permitted by MiFID II (the "Target Market Assessment").

Notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, distributors should note that: the price of the New Ordinary Shares may decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment; the New Ordinary Shares offer no guaranteed income and no capital protection; and 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. Furthermore, it is noted that, notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, Jefferies and J.P. Morgan Cazenove will only procure investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Target Market Assessment does not constitute: (a) an assessment of suitability or appropriateness for the purposes of MiFID II; or (b) a recommendation to any investor or group of investors to invest in, or purchase, or take any other action whatsoever with respect to the New Ordinary Shares.

Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own Target Market Assessment in respect of the New Ordinary Shares and determining appropriate distribution channels.

Details of the Placing Agreement and of the Placing Shares

Each of the Joint Bookrunners, the Company, Tritax Management LLP (the "Manager") and Akur have today entered into a placing agreement (the "Placing Agreement") pursuant to which the Joint Bookrunners have agreed that they will, as agent for and on behalf of the Company, use their reasonable endeavours to procure Placees for up to 170,259,651 new ordinary shares of GBP0.01 each in the capital of the Company (the "Placing Shares") at such price, if any, to be determined following completion of the Bookbuild (as defined below) and as may be agreed between the Company and the Joint Bookrunners and set out in the executed term sheet (the "Term Sheet") (the "Placing") on the terms and subject to the conditions set out in the Placing Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Joint Bookrunners shall not be under any obligation to subscribe for any Placing Shares as principal and the Joint Bookrunners shall pay to the Company the proceeds actually received by them from Placees with respect to the Placing in accordance with the Placing Agreement.

The Bookbuild, if successful, will establish the number of Placing Shares to be issued by the Company pursuant to the Placing and a single price per Placing Share payable to the Joint Bookrunners by all Placees whose bids are successful (the "Placing Price"), to be determined by the Company (in consultation with the Joint Bookrunners) following completion of the Bookbuild. The number of Placing Shares to be issued and the Placing Price will be announced on a FCA-listed Regulatory Information Service ("RIS") following the completion of the Bookbuild (the "Placing Results Announcement").

5. To bid in the Bookbuild, prospective Placees should communicate their bid by telephone to their usual sales contact at one of the Joint Bookrunners. Each bid should state the number of Placing Shares which the prospective Placee wishes to subscribe for at either the Placing Price which is ultimately established by the Company and the Joint Bookrunners or at prices up to a price limit specified in its bid. Bids may be scaled down by the Joint Bookrunners on the basis referred to in paragraph 9 below. The Joint Bookrunners are arranging the Placing as joint agents of the Company.

6. 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 Joint Bookrunners' consent will not be capable of variation or revocation after the time at which it is submitted. Each Placee's obligations will be owed to the Company and the Joint Bookrunners. Each Placee will also have an immediate, separate, irrevocable and binding obligation, owed to the Joint Bookrunners as joint agents of the Company, to pay 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 Placing Price and the number of Placing Shares such Placee has agreed to subscribe for and the Company has agreed to allot.

7. The Bookbuild is expected to close no later than 6:30 p.m. (London time) on 29 September 2021 but may be closed earlier or later at the absolute discretion of the Joint Bookrunners and the Company. The Joint Bookrunners may, in agreement with the Company, accept bids that are received after the Bookbuild has closed.

8. Each prospective Placee's allocation will be determined by the Company (in consultation with the Joint Bookrunners) and will be confirmed orally by the Joint Bookrunners (as joint agents for the Company) following the close of the Bookbuild and a trade confirmation will be despatched thereafter. This oral confirmation to such Placee will constitute an irrevocable legally binding commitment upon that person (who will at that point become a Placee) in favour of the Joint Bookrunners and the Company to subscribe for the number of Placing Shares allocated to it at the Placing Price on the terms and conditions set out in this Appendix and in accordance with the Company's articles of association. All obligations under the Bookbuild and Placing will be subject to fulfilment of the conditions referred to below under "Conditions of the Placing" and to the Placing not being terminated on the basis referred to below under "Right to terminate under the Placing Agreement". By participating in the Bookbuild, each Placee will agree that its rights and obligations in respect of the Placing will terminate only in the circumstances described below and will not be capable of rescission or termination by the Placee.

9. The Joint Bookrunners may choose to accept or reject bids, either in whole or in part, on the basis of allocations determined in agreement with the Company and may scale down any bids for this purpose on such basis as they may determine. The Joint Bookrunners may also, notwithstanding paragraphs 5 and 6 above and subject to prior consent of the Company (i) allocate Placing Shares after the time of any initial allocation to any person submitting a bid after that time and (ii) allocate Placing Shares after the Bookbuild has closed to any person submitting a bid after that time. The Company reserves the right (upon agreement with the Joint Bookrunners) to reduce or seek to increase the amount to be raised pursuant to the Placing, in its absolute discretion.

10. Irrespective of the time at which a Placee's allocation pursuant to the Placing is confirmed, settlement for all Placing Shares to be subscribed for pursuant to the Placing will be required to be made at the same time, on the basis explained below under "Registration and settlement".

11. 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.

12. To the fullest extent permissible by law, neither the Joint Bookrunners nor Akur, the Manager, the Company nor any of their respective affiliates, agents, directors, officers or employees shall have any responsibility or liability (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) to Placees (or to any other person whether acting on behalf of a Placee or otherwise). In particular, neither the Joint Bookrunners nor Akur, the Manager, the Company nor any of their respective affiliates, agents, directors, officers or employees shall have any liability (whether in contract, tort or otherwise and including to the fullest extent permissible by law, any fiduciary duties) in respect of the Joint Bookrunners' conduct or of such alternative method of effecting the Placing as the Joint Bookrunners, their respective affiliates and the Company may agree.

Conditions of the Placing

The Placing is conditional upon the Placing Agreement becoming unconditional and not having been terminated in accordance with its terms. The obligations of the Joint Bookrunners under the Placing Agreement in respect of the Placing Shares are conditional on customary terms and conditions, including among others:

(a) agreement being reached between the Company and the Joint Bookrunners on the number of Placing Shares to be issued pursuant to the Placing and the Placing Price;

(b) none of the representations and warranties of the Company and the Manager respectively contained in the Placing Agreement being untrue and inaccurate in any respect which, in the good faith opinion of the Joint Bookrunners, is material, or otherwise misleading in any respect on (i) the date of the Placing Agreement; (ii) date of completion of the Bookbuild; and (iii) at all times before Admission by reference to the facts and circumstances from then subsisting;

(c) the Company and the Manager complying in all material respects with their respective obligations under the Placing Agreement to the extent the same fall to be performed prior to Admission;

If (i) any of the conditions contained in the Placing Agreement, including those described above, are not fulfilled (or, where permitted, are waived or extended in writing by the Joint Bookrunners) or have become incapable of fulfilment on or before the date or time specified for the fulfilment thereof (or such later date and/or time as the Joint Bookrunners may agree), or (ii) the Placing Agreement is terminated in the circumstances specified below, the Placing will not proceed and the Placees' 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. The Joint Bookrunners may, in their absolute discretion, waive certain conditions contained in the Placing Agreement. Any such extension or waiver will not affect Placees' commitments as set out in this Announcement.

Neither the Joint Bookrunners nor any of their respective affiliates, agents, directors, officers or employees 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 it or they may make as to whether or not to waive or to extend the time and/or the date for the satisfaction of any condition to the Placing nor for any decision it or 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.

Lock-up

The Company has agreed with the Joint Bookrunners that it will not, and will procure that none of its subsidiaries will, at any time between the date of this Agreement and 90 calendar days after the day of the Placing Agreement, without the prior written consent of the Joint Bookrunners (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (i) issue, allot, offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, grant any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Ordinary Shares or other shares in the capital of the Company or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares or other shares in the capital of the Company or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of Ordinary Shares or other shares in the capital of the Company, whether any such transaction described in (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Ordinary Shares or other shares in the capital of the Company or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to the issue and offer by or on behalf of the Company of (i) the Placing Shares pursuant to the Placing, or (ii) the issue of Ordinary Shares to the Manager pursuant to the terms of the investment management agreement between the Manager and the Company dated 2 July 2014 and as amended and restated from time to time, or (iii) the issue of Ordinary Shares pursuant to the retail offer on the PrimaryBid Limited platform launching at the same time as the Placing.

Right to terminate under the Placing Agreement

At any time before Admission, the Joint Bookrunners, in their absolute discretion, are entitled to terminate the Placing Agreement by giving notice in writing to Akur, the Company and the Manager if, amongst other things, (i) any matter or circumstance arises as a result of which the Joint Bookrunners expect that any of the conditions contained in the Placing Agreement will not be satisfied or waived (if capable of waiver) by the Joint Bookrunners and continues not to be satisfied at Admission; or (ii) in the opinion of the Joint Bookrunners or Akur acting in good faith the Company's and the Manager's respective representations and warranties are not true and accurate or have become misleading by reference to the facts subsisting from time to time; or (iii) in the good faith opinion of any Joint Bookrunner, there has been a material adverse change affecting the condition (financial, operational, legal or otherwise), in the earnings, management, business affairs, general affairs, solvency, credit rating or business prospects of the Group as a whole and/or the Manager, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of the business, since the date of the Placing Agreement; or (iv) the occurrence of a force majeure or market disruption event as specified in the Placing Agreement.

Upon such notice being given, the parties to the Placing Agreement shall be released and discharged (except for any liability arising before or in relation to such termination) from their respective obligations under or pursuant to the Placing Agreement, subject to certain exceptions.

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 their absolute discretion and that the Joint Bookrunners do not need to make any reference to Placees and that the Joint Bookrunners shall not have any liability to Placees whatsoever in connection with any such exercise and neither the Company, none of the Joint Bookrunners, nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents or affiliates shall have any liability to Placees whatsoever in connection with any such exercise or failure to exercise.

No Prospectus

No offering document or prospectus has been or will be submitted to be approved by the FCA or submitted to the London Stock Exchange in relation to the Placing and no such prospectus is required (in accordance with the EU Prospectus Regulation and the UK Prospectus Regulation) to be published. Placees' commitments will be made solely on the basis of the information contained in this Announcement (including this Appendix) released by the Company today and any information publicly announced to a RIS by or on behalf of the Company on or prior to the date of this Announcement and subject to the further terms set forth in the contract note to be provided to individual prospective Placees.

Each Placee, by accepting a participation in the Placing, agrees that the content of this Announcement (including this Appendix) and all other publicly available information previously and simultaneously published by the Company by notification to a Regulatory Information Service or otherwise filed by the Company is exclusively the responsibility of the Company and confirms that it has neither received nor relied on any other information, representation, warranty, or statement made by or on behalf of the Company, the Manager, Akur, the Joint Bookrunners or any other person and none of the Company, the Manager, Akur, the Joint Bookrunners or any of their respective affiliates 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. 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 fraudulent misrepresentation by that person.

Registration and settlement

Settlement of transactions in the Placing Shares following Admission will take place within the system administered by Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited ("CREST"), subject to certain exceptions. The Joint Bookrunners and the Company reserve the right to require settlement for and delivery of the Placing Shares (or a portion thereof) to Placees in certificated form if delivery or settlement is not possible or practicable within the CREST system 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, each Placee allocated Placing Shares in the Placing will be sent a contract note stating the number of Placing Shares to be allocated to it at the Placing Price and settlement instructions. The terms and conditions of this announcement shall be deemed to be incorporated into the contract note and will be legally binding on the Placee on behalf of which it is made and, except with the relevant Joint Bookrunner's consent, will not be capable of variation or revocation from the time at which it is issued. Each Placee agrees that it will do all things necessary to ensure that delivery and payment is completed in accordance with the standing CREST or certificated settlement instructions that it has in place with the applicable Joint Bookrunner.

The Company will deliver the Placing Shares to a CREST account operated by Jefferies International Limited (as settlement agent for and on behalf of the Company) (the "Settlement Agent") and the Settlement Agent will enter its delivery (DEL) instruction into the CREST system. 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 4 October 2021 (or such later date as may be announced by the Company after the close of the Bookbuild) on a delivery versus payment basis in accordance with the instructions set out in the trade confirmation.

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 percentage points above LIBOR as determined by the Joint Bookrunners.

Each Placee is deemed to agree that, if it does not comply with these obligations, the Joint Bookrunners (as joint agents for 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 account and benefit of the Joint Bookrunners, 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 may be required to bear any stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax (together with any interest or penalties thereon) or other similar taxes imposed in any jurisdiction which may arise upon the sale of such Placing Shares on such Placee's behalf.

If Placing Shares are to be delivered to a custodian or settlement agent, Placees should ensure that the 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 stamp duty reserve tax. Placees will not be entitled to receive any fee or commission in connection with the Placing.

Please also note that the agreement to allot and issue Placing Shares to Placees (or the persons for whom Placees are contracting as nominee or agent) free of stamp duty and stamp duty reserve tax relates only to their allotment and issue to Placees, or such persons as they nominate as their agents, direct from the Company for the Placing Shares in question. Such agreement is subject to the representations, warranties and further terms above and assumes and is based on the warranty from each Placee that the Placing Shares are not being subscribed for in connection with arrangements to issue depositary receipts or to issue or transfer the Placing Shares into a clearance service. If there are any such arrangements, or the settlement relates to any other dealing in the Placing Shares, stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax or other similar taxes may be payable, for which neither the Company, the Manager, the Joint Bookrunners nor Akur will be responsible and the Placees shall indemnify on an after-tax basis and hold harmless the Company, the Manager, the Joint Bookrunners, and Akur and their respective affiliates, agents, directors, officers and employees for any stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax paid by them in respect of any such arrangements or dealings. If this is the case, each Placee should seek its own advice and notify the Joint Bookrunners accordingly.

Neither the Company, the Manager, the Joint Bookrunners nor Akur is liable to bear any capital duty, stamp duty and all other stamp, issue, securities, transfer, registration, documentary or other duties or taxes (including any interest, fines or penalties relating thereto) payable in or outside the United Kingdom by any Placee or any other person on a Placee's acquisition of any Placing Shares or the agreement by a Placee to acquire any Placing Shares. Each Placee agrees to indemnify on an after-tax basis and hold harmless the Company, the Manager, the Joint Bookrunners, Akur and their respective affiliates, agents, directors, officers and employees from any and all such stamp, issue, securities, transfer, registration, documentary or other duties or taxes (including interest, fines or penalties relating thereto).

Each Placee should seek its own advice as to whether any of the above tax liabilities arise and notify the Joint Bookrunners accordingly.

Each Placee and any person acting on behalf of each Placee acknowledges and agrees that the Joint Bookrunners or any of its affiliates may, at their absolute discretion, agree to become a Placee in respect of some or all of the Placing Shares.

When a Placee or person acting on behalf of the Placee is dealing with the Joint Bookrunners, any money held in an account with the Joint Bookrunners on behalf of the Placee and/or any person acting on behalf of the Placee will not be treated as client money within the meaning of the rules and regulations of the FCA made under FSMA. The Placee acknowledges that the money will not be subject to the protections conferred by the client money rules; as a consequence, this money will not be segregated from the Joint Bookrunners' money in accordance with the client money rules and will be used by the Joint Bookrunners in the course of its own business; and the Placee will rank only as a general creditor of the Joint Bookrunners.

Past performance is no guide to future performance and persons needing advice should consult an independent financial adviser.

The rights and remedies of the Joint Bookrunners, the Manager, Akur and the Company 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. If a Placee is a discretionary fund manager, he may be asked to disclose, in writing or orally to the Joint Bookrunners the jurisdiction in which the funds are managed or owned.

All times and dates in this Announcement (including this Appendix) may be subject to amendment by the Joint Bookrunners (in their absolute discretion). The Joint Bookrunners shall notify the Placees and any person acting on behalf of the Placees of any changes.

In this Announcement, "after-tax basis" means in relation to any payment made to the Company, the Joint Bookrunners or their respective affiliates, agents, directors, officers and employees pursuant to this Announcement where the payment (or any part thereof) is chargeable to any tax, a basis such that the amount so payable shall be increased so as to ensure that after taking into account any tax chargeable (or which would be chargeable but for the availability of any relief unrelated to the loss, damage, cost, charge, expense or liability against which the indemnity is given on such amount (including on the increased amount) there shall remain a sum equal to the amount that would otherwise have been so payable.
