Subordinated Contingent Convertible Securities Callable 2035 (ISIN:

(each a "Series" and together, the "AT1
Securities", and the holders
thereof, the "Securityholders").
BACKGROUND
Pursuant to the terms and conditions of each Series of the AT1
Securities, the Issuer is permitted, in its sole discretion, to
subordinate the AT1 Securities to (i) the Existing Preference
Shares (as
defined below) of
the Issuer and (ii) any
securities of the Issuer ranking or expressed to
rank pari passu with any of the Existing Preference Shares
in a winding-up of the Issuer (the "Pari Passu
Securities"). This
is contingent upon the Issuer determining that the AT1 Securities
would not be included in the Additional Tier 1 Capital (as defined
below) of the Group (as defined below) unless the holders of some
or all of the Existing Preference Shares and any Pari Passu
Securities are ranked senior to such AT1 Securities, including as a
result of the Issuer electing to treat the Existing Preference
Shares as Tier 2 Capital.
"Additional
Tier 1 Capital" has the meaning
given to it by the Relevant Regulator from time to
time.
"Existing
Preference Shares" means the
9.25% preference shares (ISIN GB00B3KS9W93), the 6.413% preference
shares (ISIN USG5533WAA56/US539439AC38), the 6.657% preference
shares (ISIN US539439AE93/US539439AF68) and the 9.75% preference
shares (ISIN GB00B3KSB238), each issued by the
Issuer.
"Group" means the Issuer and its subsidiary and
associated undertakings.
"Relevant
Regulator" means the UK
Prudential Regulation Authority, or the then relevant regulatory
body with primary responsibility for the prudential supervision of
the Issuer and the Group.
"Tier 2
Capital" has
the meaning given to it by the Relevant Regulator from time to
time.
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that:
(a)
the Issuer has determined that the AT1
Securities would not be included in the Additional Tier 1 Capital
of the Group as a result of the Issuer's election to reclassify the
Existing Preference Shares as Tier 2 Capital as described
below;
(b) the Issuer has, with
effect from 30 July 2026 (the "Push-Down
Date"), elected to reclassify
the Existing Preference Shares as Tier 2 Capital for regulatory
capital purposes; and
(c)
accordingly, with effect from the Push-Down Date, the
push-down mechanism contained in the terms and conditions of each
Series of AT1 Securities is activated. The holders of the Existing
Preference Shares (and any Pari Passu Securities) shall be Senior
Creditors to the AT1 Securities and, in the event of a winding-up
of the Issuer prior to a
Conversion Trigger, Securityholders
will rank behind holders of the Existing Preference Shares
(including where such Existing Preference Shares are treated as
Tier 2 Capital) but ahead of the holders of ordinary shares in the
capital of the Issuer.
For the avoidance of doubt, the activation of the push-down
mechanism does not affect the ranking of the AT1 Securities
relative to one another; each Series continues to
rank pari passu with each other Series of AT1
Securities.
This notice is given by Lloyds Banking Group plc.
