THIS ANNOUNCEMENT CONTAINS INSIDE INFORMATION FOR THE PURPOSES OF ARTICLE 7 OF THE MARKET ABUSE REGULATION (EU) 596/2014 as it forms part of domestic law of the United Kingdom by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (EUWA) (UK MAR).

Annington Funding PLC gives notice to the Noteholders of an investor update conference call which will be held at 11.00am (London Time) on Monday 7 February 2022, and will be moderated by the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Annington Group.

Following the RNS announcement released on 27 January 2022, the purpose of this conference call is to update the Noteholders with respect to recent events relating to the MoD's exploration of enfranchisement of the Married Quarters Estate owned by the Annington Group and leased back to the MoD (the "MQE").

Annington remains firm in its view that the MoD has no grounds for any enfranchisement actions. Annington's solicitors have issued two letters before action to the MoD setting out the reasons why Annington believes that the MoD will not succeed and seeking a speedy withdrawal of its enfranchisement claims.

Annington has also written to the Secretary of State for Defence, Ben Wallace, and the Minister of State (Minister for Defence Procurement), Jeremy Quin, setting out its disappointment in the MoD's actions. This letter also includes an offer to establish a pool of funding dedicated towards modernising and improving homes for service personnel and their families . The fund is being proposed as part of a constructive offer to the MoD to avert a lengthy and costly legal battle over the MoD's attempted enfranchisement of the MQE. Further details of this offer are outlined in a press release issued by Annington earlier today and which can be found on the Annington website ( www.annington.co.uk ).

Any Investor wishing to raise specific questions should forward these to the company using the email address: investorrelations@annington.co.uk in advance of the conference call. Other questions arising on the day should be communicated to the operator on the call.

Click to join and dial-in instructions and details for various geographies are included below.

A digital recording of the call will then subsequently be made available on the Annington website (www.annington.co.uk) for a period of 7 days, after which a transcript of the call will be available.
