Total voting rights

Applications have been made for the New Ordinary Shares to be admitted to listing on the premium listing segment of the Official List of the Financial Conduct Authority (the "FCA") and to be admitted to trading on the main market for listed securities of London Stock Exchange plc ("Admission"). It is expected that Admission become effective at 8.00 a.m. on 14 July 2021. Following Admission, the Company's issued share capital will consist of 89,312,457 Ordinary Shares each carrying one right to vote. Of such issued share capital, 4,052,738 Shares are held by RBC Cees Trustee Limited, as trustee of the UP Global Sourcing Employee Benefit Trust ("EBT"). The Company does not hold any Ordinary Shares in treasury.

The figure of 89,312,457 Ordinary Shares may therefore be used by shareholders in the Company 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 FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.

All defined terms used in this announcement not otherwise defined have the meanings set out in the Circular sent to shareholders on 25 June 2021.
