CHANGE OF AUDITOR

Capital & Regional plc announces that, following the Company's Annual General Meeting earlier today Deloitte LLP have stepped down as auditor of the Company.  Deloitte LLP have provided the following statement in relation to ceasing to act as auditors of the Company:

We are not seeking reappointment as auditors of the company and, accordingly, will cease to hold office at the conclusion of the accounts meeting held on 25 May 2023. The reasons for our ceasing to hold office is the fact that we will shortly reach our maximum tenure under s494ZA Companies Act 2006 at which time we could no longer act. The engagement partner has reached the end of their maximum tenure, and as a new partner could only do one additional year, it is reasonable to resign as auditors at the same time.

In line with the resolution approved at the AGM Mazars LLP have been appointed as the Company's auditor for the financial year ending 30 December 2023.
