The Expiration Deadline for the Offers was 4.00 p.m. (London time) on 7 October 2024.

Expected Series Acceptance Amounts

As at the Expiration Deadline, the Company had received valid tenders for purchase pursuant to the Offers of (i) £168,419,000 in aggregate nominal amount of the 2026 Bonds, (ii) £243,204,000 in aggregate nominal amount of the 2028 Bonds and (iii) £284,207,000 in aggregate nominal amount of the 2025 Bonds.

If the Company decides to accept Bonds validly tendered pursuant to the Offers, the Company expects that each Series Acceptance Amount and applicable Scaling Factor will be set as follows:

         1                               2026 Bonds                             £168,419,000                                                         N/A

         1                               2028 Bonds                             £243,204,000                                                         N/A

Given the Expected Series Acceptance Amounts for the 2026 Bonds and the 2028 Bonds in aggregate exceed the Maximum Acceptance Amount, the Company does not expect to accept any of the 2025 Bonds validly tendered for purchase pursuant to the relevant Offer.

Bondholders should note that this is a non-binding indication of the level at which the Company expects to set each Series Acceptance Amount and applicable Scaling Factor.
