The Board will commence a process to identify a replacement independent Non-Executive Director.

Statement from Andrew Rennie, Non-Executive Director of DP Poland:

"It's been fantastic to be part of the DP Poland team. Poland is one of the fastest growing Domino's markets globally in 2023. I have worked with Nils Gornall in Domino's businesses for more than 20 years and I believe that under his leadership the company is on the right track. David Wild also has extensive experience of the Domino's brand across different markets and I am confident in their ability to deliver value for customers and shareholders. I look forward as a committed shareholder to seeing our strategy executed to capitalise on the huge opportunities in front of the business."

"On behalf of the Board, I'd like to thank Andrew for his significant contribution to the Company over the past year.
