Jupiter Fund Management plc ("Jupiter" or the "Company")

Admission of the Consideration Shares to listing on the Official List and to trading on the London Stock Exchange and appointment of Christopher Parkin as a Non-Executive Director

Further to its announcement on 17 February 2020 in relation to the proposed acquisition of Merian Global Investors Limited ("Merian") (the "Acquisition"), its announcement on 21 May 2020 in relation to the approval of the Acquisition by Jupiter shareholders and its announcement on 1 July 2020 in relation to the completion of the Acquisition, Jupiter is pleased to announce that 95,360,825 new ordinary shares (the "Consideration Shares") were admitted to listing on the premium listing segment of the Official List of the Financial Conduct Authority and were admitted to trading on the London Stock Exchange's main market for listed securities ("Admission") at 8:00 a.m. today. The Consideration Shares have been allotted to the sellers of Merian as consideration for the Acquisition, with completion of the Acquisition having occurred on 1 July 2020.

Jupiter confirms that, immediately following Admission, the total number of ordinary shares in issue was 553,060,741. Each ordinary share carries the right to one vote and no ordinary shares are held in treasury, accordingly the total voting rights in the Company are 553,060,741. This figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change in their interest in, the Company under the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.

Jupiter is also pleased to confirm the appointment of Christopher Parkin as a non-executive director with immediate effect. Christopher has been nominated as a non-executive director pursuant to Mintaka LP's and TA Associates Management LP's rights under the relationship agreement entered into between them and Jupiter in connection with the Acquisition.

The Company confirms that there is no information to be disclosed under the requirements of Listing Rule 9.6.13R in relation to Chris Parkin's appointment.
