WHERE TO DO SO WOULD CONSTITUTE A VIOLATION OF THE RELEVANT LAWS OF SUCH JURISDICTION
For immediate release
7 June 2024
On 3 June 2024, Capital & Regional announced that 8,089,516 ordinary shares of £0.10 each in the Company (the "scrip
dividend shares") were to be issued pursuant to the election offered to shareholders to receive the final dividend for the
year ended 30 December 2023 by way of the issue of new ordinary shares.
Effective from 8.00 a.m. (UK time) / 9:00 a.m. (SA time) today, 7 June 2024, the scrip dividend shares will have been
admitted to trading on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange, with a secondary listing on the Main Board of
the Johannesburg Stock Exchange ("Admission").
In accordance with Rule 2.9 of the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers ("Code"), the Company confirms that, following
Admission, it has 232,996,247 ordinary shares of £0.10 each in issue and admitted to trading on the Main Market of the
London Stock Exchange, with a secondary listing on the Main Board of the Johannesburg Stock Exchange, with one
voting right per share. No shares are held in Treasury. The total number of voting rights is therefore 232,996,247 ordinary
shares.
This figure of 232,996,247 ordinary shares may also be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by
which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the share capital
of the Company under the UK Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
The International Securities Identification Number (ISIN) for the Company's ordinary shares is GB00BL6XZ716.

Disclosure requirements of the Code
Under Rule 8.3(a) of the Code, any person who is interested in 1% or more of any class of relevant securities of an offeree
company or of any securities exchange offeror (being any offeror other than an offeror in respect of which it has been
announced that its offer is, or is likely to be, solely in cash) must make an Opening Position Disclosure following the
commencement of the offer period and, if later, following the announcement in which any securities exchange offeror is
first identified. An Opening Position Disclosure must contain details of the person's interests and short positions in, and
rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of each of (i) the offeree company and (ii) any securities exchange
offeror(s). An Opening Position Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(a) applies must be made by no later than
3.30 pm (London time) on the 10th business day following the commencement of the offer period and, if appropriate, by
no later than 3.30 pm (London time) on the 10th business day following the announcement in which any securities
exchange offeror is first identified. Relevant persons who deal in the relevant securities of the offeree company or of a
securities exchange offeror prior to the deadline for making an Opening Position Disclosure must instead make a Dealing
Disclosure.
Under Rule 8.3(b) of the Code, any person who is, or becomes, interested in 1% or more of any class of relevant securities
of the offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror must make a Dealing Disclosure if the person deals in any
relevant securities of the offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror. A Dealing Disclosure must contain
details of the dealing concerned and of the person's interests and short positions in, and rights to subscribe for, any
relevant securities of each of (i) the offeree company and (ii) any securities exchange offeror(s), save to the extent that
these details have previously been disclosed under Rule 8. A Dealing Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(b) applies
must be made by no later than 3.30 pm (London time) on the business day following the date of the relevant dealing.
If two or more persons act together pursuant to an agreement or understanding, whether formal or informal, to acquire
or control an interest in relevant securities of an offeree company or a securities exchange offeror, they will be deemed
to be a single person for the purpose of Rule 8.3.
Opening Position Disclosures must also be made by the offeree company and by any offeror and Dealing Disclosures
must also be made by the offeree company, by any offeror and by any persons acting in concert with any of them (see
Rules 8.1, 8.2 and 8.4).
Details of the offeree and offeror companies in respect of whose relevant securities Opening Position Disclosures and
Dealing Disclosures must be made can be found in the Disclosure Table on the Panel's website at
www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk, including details of the number of relevant securities in issue, when the offer period
commenced and when any offeror was first identified. You should contact the Panel's Market Surveillance Unit on
+44 (0)20 7638 0129 if you are in any doubt as to whether you are required to make an Opening Position Disclosure or
a Dealing Disclosure.
