PCA Notification

In accordance with its regulatory obligations, the Company is publishing below the contents of a "person closely associated with" ("PCA") notification received in relation to the sale of shares in the Company by SSA Investments S.ar.l. ("SSA") last week.
The PCA notification was a regulatory requirement of SSA as it is a PCA connected with Bobby Arora (who is a "person discharging management responsibilities" in relation to the Company) notwithstanding that Bobby Arora's beneficial shareholding in the Company remains unchanged.
As set out in the notification below, the sale of shares by SSA Investments solely relates to the shares in the Company held for the benefit of its indirect shareholders Simon Arora and Robin Arora. Bobby Arora has not reduced his beneficial shareholding in the Company.
