LLOYDS BANKING GROUP PLC - UPDATE IN RESPECT OF BLOCK LISTING OF SHARES

 

Effective today, the UK Listing Rules have been amended to remove the block listing regime. Lloyds Banking Group plc (the "Company") has historically used this regime to block list ordinary shares of 10p each ("Shares") such that they can be allotted to participants under the Company's share plans without individual listing applications having to be made in respect of those Shares. Given this regime is no longer in effect (with any future Shares allotted pursuant to the Company's share plans being automatically listed), the Company is announcing details of those Shares that have been block listed under the previous regime and that remain unallotted pursuant to the Company's share plans as at the time of publication of this announcement (the "Unallotted Shares").

The tables set out below detail the number of Unallotted Shares in respect of each of the Company's share plans as at the time of publication of this announcement. The Unallotted Shares will be allotted to share plan participants in accordance with their terms and the Company intends to announce such allotments no later than 60 days following the date on which they occurred. Any further allotments of Shares pursuant to the Company's share plans will be announced in accordance with the Company's obligations under the Prospectus Rules: Admission to Trading on a Regulated Market sourcebook.
