RECOMMENDED CASH ACQUISITION

OF

JUST GROUP PLC ("JUST")

BY

BWS Holdings Ltd. ("BIDCO")

a wholly owned subsidiary of Brookfield Wealth Solutions Ltd. ("BWS")

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

Update on financing arrangements

On 31 July 2025, the boards of directors of BWS and Just announced that they had reached agreement on the terms of a recommended cash acquisition by Bidco, a wholly owned subsidiary of BWS, of the entire issued and to be issued ordinary share capital of Just (the "Acquisition"), to be effected by means of a scheme of arrangement under Part 26 of the Companies Act 2006 (the "Scheme"). Just's circular in relation to the Scheme (the "Scheme Document") was published on 26 August 2025. Capitalised terms in this announcement, unless otherwise defined, have the same meaning as set out in the Scheme Document.

As disclosed in the Scheme Document, on 30 July 2025 Bidco entered into (i) a term credit agreement with the lenders party thereto, Royal Bank of Canada as agent and RBC Capital Markets as lead arranger and bookrunner (the "Term Credit Agreement"), and (ii) a bridge credit agreement with the lenders party thereto, Royal Bank of Canada as agent and RBC Capital Markets as lead arranger and bookrunner (the "Bridge Credit Agreement" and, together with the Term Credit Agreement, the "Credit Facilities"), in each case in connection with the Acquisition.

Bidco announces the successful syndication of a majority of Royal Bank of Canada's commitments under the Credit Facilities pursuant to amendment and assignment agreements dated 28 August 2025 (the "Amendment and Assignment Agreements"). Pursuant to the Amendment and Assignment Agreements, the Credit Facilities have also been amended to include a credit adjustment spread in connection with USD-denominated loans, additional 0.05% structuring fees payable to certain lenders under the Bridge Credit Agreement on commitments under the bridge credit facility and other clarificatory amendments including granting of titles to lenders and obligations of Bidco regarding ranking of the Credit Facilities. For the avoidance of doubt, all other key terms to the Credit Facilities set out in the original announcement made 31 July 2025 and the Scheme Document remain unchanged.

Copies of the Amendment and Assignment Agreements are available on BWS's website at www.jubilee-offer.com.

Disclosure requirements of the Code

Under Rule 8.3(a) of the Code, any person who is interested in 1 per cent. or more of any class of relevant securities of an offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror (being any offeror other than an offeror in respect of which it has been announced that its offer is, or is likely to be, solely in cash) must make an Opening Position Disclosure following the commencement of the offer period and, if later, following the Announcement in which any securities exchange offeror is first identified. An Opening Position Disclosure must contain details of the person's interests and short positions in, and rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of each of (i) the offeree company and (ii) any securities exchange offeror(s). An Opening Position Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(a) applies must be made by no later than 3.30 p.m. on the tenth business day following the commencement of the offer period and, if appropriate, by no later than 3.30 p.m. on the tenth business day following the Announcement in which any securities exchange offeror is first identified. Relevant persons who deal in the relevant securities of the offeree company or of a securities exchange offeror prior to the deadline for making an Opening Position Disclosure must instead make a Dealing Disclosure.

Under Rule 8.3(b) of the Code, any person who is, or becomes, interested in 1 per cent. or more of any class of relevant securities of the offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror must make a Dealing Disclosure if the person deals in any relevant securities of the offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror. A Dealing Disclosure must contain details of the dealing concerned and of the person's interests and short positions in, and rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of each of (i) the offeree company and (ii) any securities exchange offeror(s), save to the extent that these details have previously been disclosed under Rule 8. A Dealing Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(b) applies must be made by no later than 3.30 p.m. on the business day following the date of the relevant dealing.

If two or more persons act together pursuant to an agreement or understanding, whether formal or informal, to acquire or control an interest in relevant securities of an offeree company or a securities exchange offeror, they will be deemed to be a single person for the purpose of Rule 8.3.

Opening Position Disclosures must also be made by the offeree company and by any offeror and Dealing Disclosures must also be made by the offeree company, by any offeror and by any persons acting in concert with any of them (see Rules 8.1, 8.2 and 8.4).

Details of the offeree and offeror companies in respect of whose relevant securities Opening Position Disclosures and Dealing Disclosures must be made can be found in the Disclosure Table on the Panel's website at www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk, including details of the number of relevant securities in issue, when the offer period commenced and when any offeror was first identified.
