VODAFONE ANNOUNCES PRICING OF CASH TENDER OFFERS

(Newbury, Berkshire - England) - July 15, 2025 - Vodafone Group Plc ("Vodafone" or the "Company") announced today the pricing of its previously announced offers to purchase for cash the outstanding series of notes listed in the table below (the "Notes") upon the terms of, and subject to the conditions set out in, the offer to purchase dated June 30, 2025 (the "Offer to Purchase").

Each offer to purchase each series of Notes is referred to herein as an "Offer" and the offers to purchase the Notes as the "Offers." Capitalised terms not otherwise defined in this announcement have the same meaning as assigned to them in the Offer to Purchase.

Pricing and Early Acceptance of Offers

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, the Total Consideration (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) for the Notes is set forth in the following table:

Results of the Offers at the Early Tender Deadline were announced on July 15, 2025. The amount of a series of Notes that will be purchased in the Offers has been determined in accordance with the acceptance priority levels set forth in the table above (each an "Acceptance Priority Level"), with 1 being the highest Acceptance Priority Level and 7 being the lowest Acceptance Priority Level, subject to the Maximum Tender Amount and, with respect to the 2050 Notes, the 2050 Sub-Cap. As indicated in the table above, all Notes that were validly tendered prior to the Early Tender Deadline have been accepted in full, without proration.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Offers, Holders that validly tendered and did not validly withdraw their Notes at or prior to the Early Tender Deadline and whose Notes are accepted for purchase by the Company will be eligible to receive the applicable Total Consideration, which already includes the Early Tender Premium, together with an amount equal to the Accrued Interest. The Company expects the Early Settlement Date to occur on the second business day after the Early Tender Deadline, July 17, 2025.

Expiration Deadline and Extension of Early Tender Premium

The Offers for the Notes will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on July 29, 2025 (such date and time, as the same may be extended, the "Expiration Date"). In addition, the Company announced today that it has amended the terms and conditions of the Offers to extend the deadline for receiving the applicable Early Tender Premium with respect to each series of Notes through to the Expiration Date, unless extended or earlier terminated. Accordingly, subject to the Maximum Tender Amount, the Acceptance Priority Levels and the 2050 Sub-Cap, Holders who validly tender their Notes following the Early Tender Deadline and at or prior to the Expiration Date will now receive the applicable Total Consideration (which includes the applicable Early Tender Premium) for such Notes accepted for purchase.

The Withdrawal Deadline has passed and has not been extended. Notes tendered pursuant to the Offers may no longer be withdrawn, except as required by law.

The "Final Tender Results Announcement Date" is expected to be July 30, 2025, unless the Offers are extended. In respect of Notes that are validly tendered after the Early Tender Deadline and at or prior to the Expiration Date and accepted for purchase, the Company expects the Final Settlement Date to occur on the second business day after the Expiration Date, July 31, 2025.

In addition to the applicable Total Consideration, Holders whose Notes are accepted for purchase will be paid the Accrued Interest thereon. Interest will cease to accrue on the applicable Settlement Date for all Notes accepted in the Offers.

The consummation of the Offers and the Company's obligation to accept and pay for the Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) pursuant to the Offers are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions described in the Offer to Purchase and subject to the Maximum Tender Amount. The Company reserves the right, subject to applicable law, to amend or waive any and all conditions to the Offers.

The purchase price for the Dollar Notes and the Sterling Notes will be paid in U.S. Dollars and Sterling, respectively. To determine whether the Maximum Tender Amount has been reached at any given point, the aggregate applicable purchase price payable (excluding Accrued Interest) for the Dollar Notes and the Sterling Notes validly tendered was or will be converted into Euro using a conversion rate of $1: €0.8573 with respect to the Dollar Notes and £1: €1.1510 with respect to the Sterling Notes, which were the exchange rates as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Early Tender Deadline as reported on the Bloomberg screen page "BFIX" under the headings "USDEUR" and "GBPEUR", respectively.

Holders of Notes are advised to check with any intermediary (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) through which they hold Notes as to when such intermediary would need to receive instructions from a beneficial owner in order for that beneficial owner to be able to participate in, or (in the circumstances in which revocation is permitted) revoke their instruction to participate in the Offers before the deadlines specified herein and in the Offer to Purchase. The deadlines set by any such intermediary and the applicable Clearing System for participation in the Offers may be earlier than the relevant deadlines specified herein and in the Offer to Purchase.

The Company has retained Merrill Lynch International, and Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. (collectively, "Deutsche Bank Securities"), as Dealer Managers and Kroll Issuer Services Limited as Tender and Information Agent (the "Tender and Information Agent") for the purposes of the Offers.
