Highest price paid per share:	£ 6.8140
Lowest price paid per share:	£ 6.7170
Volume weighted average price paid per share:	£ 6.7603

All repurchases on the London Stock Exchange, Aquis Exchange, Cboe Europe Limited (through the BXE and CXE order books) and/or Turquoise ("UK Venues") are implemented as "on Exchange" transactions (as such term is defined in the rules of the London Stock Exchange) and as "market purchases" for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006.

Highest price paid per share:	HK$ 68.0000
Lowest price paid per share:	HK$ 67.5000
Volume weighted average price paid per share:	HK$ 67.7696

All repurchases on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited ("Hong Kong Stock Exchange") are "off market" for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006 but are transactions which occur "on Exchange" for the purposes of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited and which constitute an "on-market share buy-back" for the purposes of the Codes on Takeovers and Mergers and Share Buy-backs.

Since the commencement of the buy-back announced on 7 May 2024, the Company has repurchased 177,008,862 ordinary shares for a total consideration of approximately US$1,555.1m

Following the cancellation of the shares repurchased on the UK Venues, the Company's issued ordinary share capital will consist of 18,683,524,798 ordinary shares with voting rights. There are no ordinary shares held in treasury. Cancellation of the shares repurchased on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange takes longer than those repurchased on the UK Venues and a further announcement of total voting rights will be made once those shares have been cancelled.

The above figure of 18,683,524,798 may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to
