Proposed Return of Cash: Completion of B Share Purchase Offer

Further to the publication on 2 August 2021 of the 2021 notice of annual general meeting of the Company, containing at Appendix 2 a shareholder circular regarding the B Share Scheme and the Share Consolidation (the "Circular"), and the announcement earlier today, 7 September 2021, that UBS AG London Branch ("UBS"), acting as principal (and not as agent, nominee or trustee), had made the B Share Purchase Offer, Berkeley announces that it has accepted the B Share Purchase Offer on behalf of the holders of the B Shares and that the B Shares have been purchased by UBS, acting as principal (and not as agent, nominee or trustee) from the relevant shareholders for an amount of £3.71 per B Share (free of all expenses and commissions), on the terms set out in the Circular and the Purchase Offer Deed.

Payments are expected to be despatched and CREST accounts credited on 17 September 2021 in respect of proceeds from the sale of the B Shares purchased by UBS.

Single B Share Dividend

Following the B Share Purchase Completion, Berkeley announces that it has paid the Single B Share Dividend to UBS as holder of all of the B Shares. In accordance with Berkeley's Articles of Association, and following the payment of the Single B Share Dividend, all of the B Shares have been automatically reclassified as Deferred Shares.

As per the Circular the Deferred Shares will not be listed and carry extremely limited rights. All of the Deferred Shares (being 121,696,046 Deferred Shares) will be repurchased by Berkeley from UBS, in accordance with the terms of the Option Agreement as described in the Circular. Upon their repurchase by Berkeley, all of the Deferred Shares will be cancelled by Berkeley.
