(the "Company")

Block listing application

Conviviality Plc (AIM: CVR), the UK's leading independent wholesaler and distributor of alcohol and impulse serving consumers through its Franchised retail outlets and through hospitality and food service, announces that an application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for a block listing of securities in respect of 324,979 ordinary shares of £0.0002 each (the "New Ordinary Shares") to be admitted to trading on AIM.

The New Ordinary Shares will be issued from time to time in order to satisfy the exercise of share options granted under the Conviviality Plc Share Option Plan 2015. It is expected that admission will become effective on 7 December 2016.

When issued, the New Ordinary Shares will be credited as fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing ordinary shares of £0.0002 each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares").

As at today, there are 172,509,838 Ordinary Shares in issue with one voting right per share. The Company does not hold any shares in treasury. The Company will notify on a monthly basis when there are changes to the issued share capital of the Company, and these monthly figures may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculation by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change in their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
