NOTICE UNDER THE TRUSTEE ACT 1925

THE ENSIGN RETIREMENT PLAN ("the Scheme")

Notice to Creditors and Beneficiaries under Section 27 of the Trustee Act 1925

Notice is hereby given pursuant to Section 27 of the Trustee Act 1925 that the Trustee is winding-up the Scheme.

Any creditor, member or beneficiary of the Scheme or any other person who believes they have a claim against, or entitlement to a pension or any benefit from, or an interest in the Scheme is requested to write to Ensign Trustee: c/o BDO LLP, 31 Chertsey Street, Guildford, Surrey, England, GU1 4HD to make a claim.

Claimants should provide their full name, address, date of birth, NI number and, if applicable, dates of employment. If any other person believes they have a claim against or an interest in the Scheme, they are requested to write to the same address setting out full particulars of their claim. Please quote the Scheme name in all correspondence.

All claims must be received by 31 August 2023. After this date, the Trustee will proceed to complete the wind-up of the Scheme and secure benefits for any remaining beneficiaries, having regard only to the claims and interests of which they have prior notice. The Trustee shall not be liable to any person of whose claims and demands they have not had notice.

Any person who has been contacted by the Trustee at their current address or has already made a claim and received a response need not re-apply to the Trustee. It would also be helpful if you can bring this notice to the attention of anyone else you know of who may have a claim or interest.

Issued on behalf of Ensign Retirement Pension Trustees Limited (as the Trustee of the Ensign Retirement Plan)
