About the Programme
· The Programme will be financed through existing cash resources.

· The Company confirms that it currently has no unpublished inside information.
· The Programme will operate in accordance with and under the terms of the relevant General Authority. The Programme will be conducted within the parameters of the Market Abuse Regulation 596/2014/EU and the delegated regulations made pursuant to it, save that there may be circumstances where the Company conducts share repurchases such that they exceed 25 per cent of the average daily volume in Ordinary Shares for the 20 trading days prior to the share repurchase.
· As at 23 August 2024, the Company's total issued share capital consisted of 41,737,339 Ordinary Shares, with one voting right per share.
