Notice to Bondholders, the Trustee and
the Principal Paying, Transfer and Exchange Agent
Capital & Counties Properties PLC (the “Issuer”) notes the recent declaration by Shaftesbury PLC of an
interim dividend of GBP 0.027 per Shaftesbury Share (a “Cash Dividend”), which was paid to holders of
Shaftesbury Shares on 15 February 2023.
On 1 February 2023, the Issuer duly notified Bondholders that payment of such Cash Dividend would result
in the occurrence of a Capital Distribution in accordance with the definition thereof in the terms and conditions
of the Bonds (the “Conditions”), given the Cash Dividend in respect of a Unit of Equity Shares amounts to
GBP 373.07412 and is therefore above the Reference Amount of zero in respect of the Relevant Period.
Furthermore, on 6 February 2023 the Issuer also notified Bondholders of its election that such cash amount
would not be added to the Exchange Property and instead a number of Shaftesbury Shares, to be determined
by the Calculation Agent in accordance with the Conditions, would be added to the Exchange Property,
pursuant to Condition 8(e).
Consequently, and in accordance with the notices to Bondholders dated 1 February 2023 and 6 February
2023 and Condition 8(c), the Issuer hereby notifies Bondholders, the Trustee and the Principal Paying,
Transfer and Exchange Agent of the following changes to the Exchange Property pursuant to Conditions
8(b)(iii)(B) and 8(e), effective 24 February 2023:
- 246,877.2782 Shaftesbury Shares have been added to the Exchange Property, and the Exchange
Property therefore comprises 38,245,169.2937 Shaftesbury Shares; and
- the Exchange Property per Bond to which the holder of GBP 100,000 principal amount of Bonds
would be entitled upon exercise of the Exchange Right in respect of such Bond is 13,907.3343
Shaftesbury Shares (equivalent to an implied exchange price of approximately GBP 7.1905 per
Shaftesbury Share).
Furthermore, 246,878 Shaftesbury Shares will be credited to the Security pursuant to Condition 2(b).
Capitalised terms not otherwise defined in this notice shall have the meanings given to them in the Conditions.
