FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

13 November 2024

RECOMMENDED CASH AND SHARE OFFER

by

NEWRIVER REIT PLC

for

CAPITAL & REGIONAL PLC

to be effected by means of a Scheme of Arrangement under Part 26 of the Companies Act 2006

RESULTS OF COURT MEETING AND CAPITAL & REGIONAL GENERAL MEETING

The Board of Capital & Regional plc ("Capital & Regional") announces that at the Court Meeting and the Capital & Regional General Meeting held earlier today in connection with the recommended cash and share offer by NewRiver REIT plc ("NewRiver") for Capital & Regional (the "Combination", forming the "Combined Group"), all resolutions were duly passed with over 99 per cent. support from shareholders on each resolution.

As previously announced, the Combination is to be implemented by means of a scheme of arrangement under Part 26 of the Companies Act 2006 (the "Scheme") and today:

(i)  a majority in number of Scheme Shareholders who voted and were entitled to vote, either in person or by proxy, who together represented not less than 75 per cent in value of the Scheme Shares voted, voted in favour of the Scheme at the Court Meeting; and

(ii) the requisite majority of Capital & Regional Shareholders voted to approve the special resolution required to be approved in connection with the Scheme at the Capital & Regional General Meeting.

Full details of the resolutions passed are set out in the notices of the Court Meeting and the Capital & Regional General Meeting contained in Part 10 and Part 11 respectively of the scheme document published by Capital & Regional on 21 October 2024 in connection with the Combination (the "Scheme Document").

The tables below set out the results of the poll at the Court Meeting and the Capital & Regional General Meeting. Each Scheme Shareholder present, in person or by proxy, was entitled to one vote per Scheme Share held at the Scheme Voting Record Time. At the Scheme Voting Record Time, Capital & Regional had 232,996,247 Scheme Shares in issue, none of which were held in treasury. Therefore, the total number of voting rights in Capital & Regional for the purposes of the Court Meeting and the Capital & Regional General Meeting at the Scheme Voting Record Time was 232,996,247.

Voting results of the Court Meeting

^*Includes discretionary votes.

^**Rounded to two decimal places.

^***Where a Scheme Shareholder has cast some of their votes "for" and some of their votes "against" the resolution, such Scheme Shareholder has been counted as having voted both "for" and "against" the resolution for the purposes of determining the number of Scheme Shareholders who voted as set out in this column.

***\* The total number of Scheme Shareholders who voted has been adjusted accordingly so as to ensure that where a Scheme Shareholder has cast some of their votes "for" and some of their votes "against" the resolution, such Scheme Shareholder is not counted twice in the total.

Voting results of the Capital & Regional General Meeting

^*Includes discretionary votes.

^** Rounded to two decimal places.

^***A vote withheld is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the proportion of votes 'For' or 'Against' the Capital & Regional Resolution.

Effective Date and Updates to Timetable

Completion of the Combination remains subject to the satisfaction, or, if applicable, the waiver of the remaining Conditions set out in the Scheme Document, including the Court sanctioning the Scheme at the Court Hearing, which is expected to be held on 6 December 2024, with the Scheme becoming effective thereafter on 10 December 2024.

Capital & Regional hereby announces an updated expected timetable of principal events from the version set out on pages 16 and 17 of the Scheme Document. All times and dates are indicative only and are subject to change. In particular, in respect of the cash payment to be made to Capital & Regional Shareholders on the South African Register and the UK Register in respect of the cash component of the Combination Consideration:

(i)   Capital & Regional is required, for South African regulatory reasons and for the benefit of the South African market, to publish on a Regulatory Information Service and on SENS an indicative GBP/Rand Exchange Rate, and such indicative GBP/Rand Exchange Rate is expected to be announced on 6 December 2024 following the Scheme Sanction Hearing;

(ii)  the final GBP/Rand Exchange Rate to be published on a Regulatory Information Service and on SENS is now expected to be published on 10 December 2024.

All other entries in the expected timetable of principal events remain as previously announced. If any of the dates and/or times in the expected timetable change, the revised dates and/or times will be notified to Capital & Regional Shareholders by announcement through a Regulatory Information Service and on SENS, with such announcement being made available on Capital & Regional's website at https://capreg.com/investor-info/possible-offer/. Accordingly, the revised expected timetable is set out below:

EXPECTED TIMETABLE OF PRINCIPAL EVENTS

All times in this Announcement are London times, unless otherwise stated.

Notes:

(1) These times and dates are indicative only and will depend, among other things, on the date upon which the Court sanctions the Scheme and the date on which the Conditions are satisfied or, if capable of waiver, waived. If any of the dates and/or times in this expected timetable change, the revised dates and/or times will be notified to Capital & Regional Shareholders by announcement through a Regulatory Information Service and on SENS and, if required by the Panel, posting notice(s) of the change(s) to Capital & Regional Shareholders and persons so entitled. All Scheme Shareholders have the right to attend the Scheme Sanction Hearing. Capital & Regional must implement the Scheme in accordance with the expected timetable unless (i) the Independent Capital & Regional Directors withdraw their recommendation of the Scheme, (ii) the Board of Capital & Regional announces its decision to propose an adjournment of any of the Capital & Regional Meetings or the Scheme Sanction Hearing, (iii) any of the Capital & Regional Meetings or the Scheme Sanction Hearing is adjourned, or (iv) any Condition is invoked in accordance with the Code.

(2) The latest time for Equiniti to receive a Form of Election is expected to be 1.00 p.m. (London time) on the Business Day prior to the Scheme Sanction Hearing, which is expected to take place on 6 December 2024. Scheme Shareholders should allow for sufficient time for posting for their Form of Election to be received.

(3) The JSE will, subject to the Scheme becoming Effective, and to Capital & Regional no longer meeting the JSE spread requirements and therefore no longer qualifying for listing, take steps to implement the delisting of Capital & Regional Shares from the Main Board of the JSE pursuant to paragraph 1.12 of the JSE Listings Requirements.

(4) The Long-stop Date is the latest date by which the Scheme may become Effective. However, the Long-stop Date may be extended to such later date as Capital & Regional and NewRiver may agree in writing (with the Panel's consent and as the Court may approve (should such approval(s) be required)).

Overseas Shareholders

This Announcement has been prepared in accordance with, and for the purpose of complying with, the laws of England and Wales and the Code, and information disclosed may not be the same as that which would have been disclosed if this Announcement had been prepared in accordance with the laws of jurisdictions outside England.

The release, publication or distribution of this Announcement in or into jurisdictions other than the United Kingdom and South Africa may be restricted by law and therefore persons into whose possession this Announcement comes who are not resident in the United Kingdom or South Africa or who are subject to the laws of other jurisdictions should inform themselves about, and observe, any applicable restrictions. Capital & Regional Shareholders who are in any doubt regarding such matters should consult an appropriate independent adviser in the relevant jurisdiction without delay. Any failure to comply with such restrictions may constitute a violation of the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.

Unless otherwise determined by NewRiver or required by the Code, and permitted by applicable law and regulation, participation in the Combination will not be made available, and the New NewRiver Shares to be issued pursuant to the Combination will not be issued, directly or indirectly, in, into or from a Restricted Jurisdiction where to do so would violate the laws in that jurisdiction, and no person may vote, or procure the vote, in favour of the Combination by any such use, means, instrumentality or form from within a Restricted Jurisdiction if to do so would constitute a violation of the laws of that jurisdiction. Accordingly, copies of all documentation relating to the Combination are not being, and must not be, directly or indirectly, mailed or otherwise forwarded, distributed or sent in, into or from a Restricted Jurisdiction where to do so would violate the laws in that jurisdiction, and persons receiving documents relating to the Combination (including custodians, nominees and trustees) must not mail or otherwise distribute or send them in, into or from any Restricted Jurisdictions where to do so would violate the laws in that jurisdiction. Any person (including, without limitation, any custodian, nominee and trustee) who would, or otherwise intends to, or who may have a contractual or legal obligation to, forward this Announcement and/or any other related document to any jurisdiction other than the United Kingdom and South Africa should inform themselves of, and observe, any applicable legal or regulatory requirements of their jurisdiction.

If the Combination is implemented by way of a Takeover Offer (unless otherwise permitted by applicable law and regulation), the Takeover Offer may not be made, directly or indirectly, in or into, or by the use of mails or any means or instrumentality (including, without limitation, facsimile, e-mail or other electronic transmission, telex or telephone) of interstate or foreign commerce of, or any facility of a national, state or other securities exchange of, any Restricted Jurisdiction, and the Takeover Offer may not be capable of acceptance by any such use, means, instrumentality or facilities from within any Restricted Jurisdiction.

The availability of the New NewRiver Shares under the Combination to Capital & Regional Shareholders who are not resident in the United Kingdom may be affected by the laws of the relevant jurisdictions in which they are resident (which may also affect the ability of such Capital & Regional Shareholders to vote their Capital & Regional Shares with respect to the Scheme and the Combination at the Capital & Regional Meetings, or to execute and deliver Forms of Proxy appointing another to vote at the Capital & Regional Meetings on their behalf). Persons who are not resident in the United Kingdom or who are subject to the laws and/or regulations of another jurisdiction should inform themselves of, and should observe, any applicable legal and/or regulatory requirements.

For those Capital & Regional Shareholders who hold their Capital & Regional Shares on the South African Register, it is anticipated that, as a consequence of certain South African regulatory requirements which make it unduly onerous for NewRiver to allot and issue the New NewRiver Shares to which they would otherwise be entitled pursuant to the terms of the Combination, such Capital & Regional Shareholders will not receive such New NewRiver Shares and will instead receive a cash sum in South African Rand, further details of which are set out in the Scheme Document. Capital & Regional Shareholders on the South African Register who wish to receive New NewRiver Shares can do so by transferring their shareholding to an equivalent interest on the UK Register, provided that their foreign exposure falls within their foreign portfolio investment allowance or foreign allowance, respectively. The costs associated with the removal of shares from the South African Register to the UK Register will be borne by the Capital & Regional Shareholder concerned.

Each Capital & Regional Shareholder is urged to consult their independent professional adviser immediately regarding the tax consequences of the Combination.

The statements contained in this Announcement are not to be construed as legal, business, financial or tax advice.

Notice to US investors in Capital & Regional

Capital & Regional Shareholders located in the United States should note that the Combination relates to the securities of an English company with a listing on the London Stock Exchange and is proposed to be implemented pursuant to a scheme of arrangement under English law. A transaction effected by means of a scheme of arrangement is not subject to the tender offer rules or the proxy solicitation rules under the US Exchange Act. Accordingly, the Scheme is subject to procedural and disclosure requirements and practices applicable to a scheme of arrangement involving a target company in England listed on the London Stock Exchange, which are different from the disclosure requirements of the US tender offer and proxy solicitation rules.

The Combination may, in circumstances described in the Scheme Document, instead be carried out by way of a Takeover Offer under English law. If in the future NewRiver exercises its right to implement the Combination by way of a Takeover Offer, such Takeover Offer will be made in compliance with applicable US tender offer and securities laws and regulations, including the exemptions therefrom. Such Takeover Offer would be made in the United States by NewRiver and no one else. In addition to any such Takeover Offer, in accordance with normal practice in the United Kingdom, NewRiver, certain affiliated companies, and their nominees or brokers (acting as agents) may make certain purchases of, or arrangements to purchase, Capital & Regional Shares outside the United States, other than pursuant to the Takeover Offer, until the date on which such Takeover Offer would become effective, lapses or is otherwise withdrawn. If such purchases or arrangements to purchase were to be made, they would be made outside the United States and would comply with applicable law, including the US Exchange Act. These purchases may occur either in the open market at prevailing prices or in private transactions at negotiated prices. Any information about such purchases will be disclosed, as required in the United Kingdom, will be reported to a Regulatory Information Service of the FCA and on SENS and will be available on the London Stock Exchange website: www.londonstockexchange.com.

The financial information included in this Announcement, the Scheme Document and other documentation related to the Combination has been or will have been prepared in accordance with IFRS and thus may not be comparable to financial information of US companies or companies whose financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

The New NewRiver Shares to be issued pursuant to the Scheme in connection with the Combination will be issued in reliance on the exemption from the registration requirements of the US Securities Act provided by Section 3(a)(10) thereof Capital & Regional will advise the Court that its sanction of the Scheme will be relied upon by NewRiver as an approval of the scheme of arrangement following a hearing on its fairness to Capital & Regional Shareholders at which hearing all such Capital & Regional Shareholders are entitled to attend in person or through counsel to support or oppose the sanctioning of the Scheme and with respect to which notification has been given to all Capital & Regional Shareholders.

The New NewRiver Shares to be issued to Capital & Regional Shareholders in connection with the Combination pursuant to a scheme of arrangement under English law may generally be resold without restriction under the US Securities Act, except for resales by persons who are or will be affiliates (within the meaning of Rule 144 under the US Securities Act). "Affiliates" of a company are generally defined as persons who directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, control, or are controlled by, or are under common control with, that company. Whether a person is an affiliate of a company for purposes of the US Securities Act depends on the circumstances, but affiliates can include certain officers, directors and significant shareholders of Capital & Regional or of NewRiver prior to, or of NewRiver after, the Effective Date. Capital & Regional Shareholders who believe that they may be or will be affiliates for purposes of the US Securities Act should consult their own legal advisers prior to any resale of New NewRiver Shares received under the Scheme.

None of the securities referred to in the Scheme Document have been approved or disapproved by the SEC or any US state securities commission, nor have any such authorities passed judgment upon the fairness or the merits of the Combination or the Scheme or determined if the Scheme Document is accurate or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offence in the United States.

US holders of Capital & Regional Shares also should be aware that the transaction contemplated herein may have tax consequences in the United States and that such consequences, if any, are not described herein, as well as foreign and other tax consequences. US holders of Capital & Regional Shares are urged to consult with independent professional advisers regarding the legal, tax and financial consequences of the Combination applicable to them.

It may be difficult for US holders of Capital & Regional Shares to enforce their rights and claims arising out of the US federal securities laws since NewRiver and Capital & Regional are organised in countries other than the United States and some or all of their officers and directors may be residents of, and some or all of their assets may be located in, jurisdictions other than the United States. US holders of Capital & Regional Shares may have difficulty effecting service of process within the United States upon those persons or recovering against judgments of US courts, including judgments based upon the civil liability provisions of the US federal securities laws. US holders of Capital & Regional Shares may not be able to sue a non-US company or its officers or directors in a non-US court for violations of US securities laws. Further, it may be difficult to compel a non-US company and its affiliates to subject themselves to a US court's judgment.

Forward-looking Statements

These forward-looking statements are not based on historical fact and are not guarantees of future performance. By their nature, such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect expected results and/or the operations of Capital & Regional, NewRiver or the Combined Group and are based on certain assumptions and assessments made by Capital & Regional and NewRiver in light of their experience and their perception of historical trends, current conditions, future developments and other factors they believe appropriate. Many of these risks and uncertainties relate to factors that are beyond the entities' ability to control or estimate precisely.

There are several factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected, expressed or implied in forward-looking statements. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements are the satisfaction of or failure to satisfy all or any of the conditions to the Combination, as well as additional factors, such as changes in the global, political, economic, business, competitive, market and regulatory forces, fluctuations in exchange and interest rates, changes in tax rates and future business acquisitions or disposals, the success of business and operating initiatives and restructuring objectives and the outcome of any litigation. Such statements are qualified in their entirety by the inherent risks and uncertainties surrounding future expectations. Except as expressly provided in this Announcement, they have not been reviewed by the auditors of Capital & Regional or NewRiver.

Neither Capital & Regional nor NewRiver, or any of their respective associates or directors, officers, employees or advisers, provides any representation, assurance or guarantee that the occurrence of the events expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements in this Announcement will actually occur. Due to such uncertainties and risks, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Announcement. All subsequent oral or written forward-looking statements attributable to Capital & Regional or NewRiver or any of their respective members, directors, officers, employees or advisers or any persons acting on their behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statement above. Capital & Regional and NewRiver disclaim any obligation to update any forward-looking or other statements contained in this Announcement, except as required by applicable law or by the rules of any competent regulatory authority, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
