On 20 May 2026, the Offeror announced that the Capped Offers Maximum Acceptance Amount (applicable to the Offers for the RT1 Notes and the Senior Notes) had been set at £298,346,750 in aggregate nominal amount of the Notes.

The Offers expired at 4.00 p.m. (London time) on 28 May 2026 (the Expiration Deadline) and the Offeror now announces the indicative results of the Offers.

Capitalised terms used in this announcement but not defined have the meanings given to them in the Tender Offer Memorandum.

Satisfaction of the New Financing Condition

The Offeror announces that settlement of the issue of the New Notes took place on 28 May 2026. Accordingly, the New Financing Condition has been satisfied.

Indicative Non-Binding Results

As at the Expiration Deadline, the Offeror had received valid tenders for purchase pursuant to the Offers in respect of (i) £338,285,000 in aggregate nominal amount of the RT1 Notes; (ii) €84,839,000 in aggregate nominal amount of the Senior Notes; and (iii) £86,200,000 in aggregate nominal amount of the Tier 2 Notes.

The Offeror announces that, in light of the positive response to the Offers and in the event that it decides to accept valid tenders of RT1 Notes and/or Senior Notes for purchase pursuant to the relevant Offer(s), it intends to exercise its right to set the Capped Offers Final Acceptance Amount at a level that is higher than the previously announced Capped Offers Maximum Acceptance Amount, and expects to set the Capped Offers Final Acceptance Amount at approximately £400,001,995. Accordingly, on the basis of the Capped Offers Final Acceptance Amount, the Offeror expects to set each Capped Offer Series Acceptance Amount, and the applicable Scaling Factor that will be applied to the Senior Notes as a consequence, as summarised below:

Noteholders should note that the above is a non-binding indication of the level at which the Offeror expects to set the Capped Offers Final Acceptance Amount, each Capped Offer Series Acceptance Amount and the applicable Scaling Factor that would be applied as a consequence.

Noteholders should also note that the Offer in respect of the Tier 2 Notes is an "any and all offer", and therefore in the event that the Offeror decides to accept any validly tendered Tier 2 Notes for purchase pursuant to the relevant Offer the Offeror will accept for purchase all of the Tier 2 Notes that were validly tendered, and there will be no scaling of any tenders of Tier 2 Notes for purchase pursuant to the relevant Offer.

Pricing and Settlement

Pricing for the Offers will take place at or around 11.00 a.m. (London time) on 29 May 2026 (the Pricing Time).  As soon as reasonably practicable after the Pricing Time on 29 May 2026, the Offeror will announce whether it will accept valid tenders of Notes for purchase pursuant to all or any of the Offers and, if so accepted, the aggregate nominal amount of Tier 2 Notes so accepted, each Capped Offer Series Acceptance Amount, each Benchmark Security Rate (in respect of the RT1 Notes and the Tier 2 Notes), the Interpolated Mid-Swap Rate (in respect of the Senior Notes), each Purchase Yield, each Purchase Price, the Scaling Factor that will be applied to any valid tenders of RT1 Notes or Senior Notes (if applicable), and the aggregate nominal amount of the Notes of each Series that will remain outstanding post settlement of the Offers.
