Sterling bonds: Final Terms Confirmation and Results of Exchange Offer

International Personal Finance plc (the "Issuer"), a global financial services provider to financially underserved people, today announces the successful increase in the aggregate principal amount outstanding of its sterling-denominated 12% notes due 12 December 2027 by £30 million, taking the total amount issued through this series of notes to £80 million. The net proceeds of the newly issued notes will be used to support further growth in the Issuer's business.

Summary:

· holders of £16,842,100 of the Issuer's existing sterling notes due 14 December 2023 have elected to exchange them into the same amount of new 12 per cent. notes due 12 December 2027, pursuant to the exchange offer announced on 2 November 2023 (the "Exchange Offer"); and

· an additional £13,157,900 of new notes will be issued for cash as Cash Offer New Notes (as defined below) (of which, £4,508,400 of Cash Offer New Notes will be retained in treasury by the Issuer, for possible sale in the future).

The net effect is:

· prior to the Exchange Offer and new issue, the Issuer had £40,494,800 sterling notes maturing 14 December 2023;

· once the Exchange Offer and new issue settle, the Issuer will have £23,652,700 sterling notes maturing 14 December 2023 and (excluding for these purposes those notes retained in treasury) £75,491,600 sterling notes maturing 12 December 2027, and will receive £8,014,494 of net cash proceeds; and

· the total size of the issue of New Notes (as defined below) (including those retained in treasury by the Issuer) is £30,000,000.

Commenting on this transaction, Gary Thompson, Chief Financial Officer, said: "We are pleased to have increased the size of our sterling retail bond issue maturing in December 2027 by £30 million. We have now issued a total of £80 million through these bonds and they represent a very important component of our funding profile as we continue to deliver on our growth ambitions. I would like to thank our existing bondholders who extended and welcome our new bondholders."

Further details are as follows:

This announcement constitutes the Results Announcement referred to in (i) the Final Terms dated 2 November 2023 relating to the proposed issue by the Issuer of sterling-denominated 12 per cent. notes due 2027 for cash (the "Cash Offer New Notes Final Terms" and such notes being the "Cash Offer New Notes"); and (ii) the Final Terms contained in pages 50 to 59 of the Exchange Offer Memorandum dated 2 November 2023 (the "Exchange New Notes Final Terms" and the "Exchange Offer Memorandum") relating to the proposed offer for exchange of the Issuer's outstanding sterling-denominated 7.75 per cent. notes due 2023 (ISIN: XS1998163148) (the "Existing 2023 Notes") for 12 per cent. notes due 2027 ("Exchange New Notes").
