Dear Shareholder,

Annual General Meeting ("AGM")

This year's AGM will be held at 12.00 pm on Thursday 17 July 2025, at the Company's offices at Premier House, Centrium Business Park, Griffiths Way, St Albans, Hertfordshire, AL1 2RE, and we look forward to welcoming those shareholders who are able to attend.

• Attendance at the AGM will be restricted to shareholders only.
• To enable us to monitor the number of shareholders likely to attend, and to make the appropriate arrangements to safely accommodate everyone, we encourage shareholders wishing to attend the AGM in person to register via investor.relations@premierfoods.co.uk, as soon as possible, and by no later than 12.00 pm on Monday 14 July 2025.
• As always, if shareholders are unable to attend the AGM in person, they are strongly encouraged to submit their votes by proxy.

Shareholders are also invited to submit questions in advance of the AGM, via email at investor.relations@premierfoods.co.uk, by no later than 12.00 pm on Monday 14 July 2025. These questions will be answered either at the AGM or, where appropriate, by publishing responses on thematic topics on our website either prior to, or shortly after, the AGM.

If it becomes appropriate or necessary to make changes to the format of the 2025 AGM following the time of issuing this Notice of Meeting (the "Notice"), we will inform shareholders as soon as practicable via our website (www.premierfoods.co.uk). Shareholders should check our website to ensure that they have the most up to date information available regarding the AGM. We would like to thank all shareholders in advance for their co-operation and understanding.

Set out in this document is the Notice, explanatory notes, additional notes and director biographies.

Voting

Shareholders are strongly encouraged to vote in advance of the AGM by submitting a form of proxy electronically or by post as soon as possible, and these must be received by no later than 12.00 pm on Tuesday 15 July 2025. Shareholders who wish to appoint a proxy are encouraged to appoint the Group Chair, as Chair of the meeting, as their proxy. The completion and return of a form of proxy will not prevent you from attending the AGM and voting in person should you wish to do so.

There are three ways you can vote on the resolutions proposed at the AGM:

• 1. appoint a proxy to participate and vote on your behalf by logging on to www.shareview.co.uk (to use this service you will need your Shareholder Reference Number printed on the accompanying form of proxy);
• 1. appoint a proxy to participate and vote on your behalf, using the form of proxy accompanying the Notice or (for shares held through CREST) via the CREST proxy voting system; or
• 1. attend and vote at the AGM.

The accompanying form of proxy invites you to vote in one of three ways for each resolution: for, against or vote withheld. At the AGM itself, the votes will be taken by poll, rather than on a show of hands. This approach has been chosen as the outcome is more democratic, given that the votes of shareholders who have lodged proxies are added to the votes of shareholders present at the AGM. The results will be published on our website (www.premierfoods.co.uk) following the AGM and will be released to the London Stock Exchange. Further details are available in the additional notes section of this document on pages 6 and 7.

Recommendation

Your Board considers that the resolutions proposed are in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, the directors unanimously recommend that shareholders vote in favour of all resolutions, as they intend to do in respect of their own shareholdings.

Disapplication of pre-emption rights for an acquisition or a specified capital investment

Resolution 19. That, if Resolution 17 is passed, the directors be given power, in addition to the authority granted under Resolution 18, to allot equity securities (as defined in the Companies Act 2006) for cash under the authority given by that resolution and/or to sell ordinary shares held by the Company as treasury shares for cash, as if section 561 of the Companies Act 2006 did not apply to any such allotment or sale, such powers to be limited:

Notice period for general meetings

Resolution 20. That a general meeting other than an AGM may be called on not less than 14 clear days' notice.

By order of the Board.

Simon Rose

General Counsel & Company Secretary

3 June 2025

Registered Office: Premier House, Centrium Business Park, Griffiths Way, St Albans, Hertfordshire, AL1 2RE Registered in England and Wales No. 05160050

Explanatory Notes

Resolutions 1 to 17 (inclusive) are proposed as ordinary resolutions and Resolutions 18 to 20 (inclusive) are proposed as special resolutions. For each ordinary resolution to be passed, more than half of the votes cast must be in favour of the resolution and, for each special resolution to be passed, at least three-quarters of the votes cast must be in favour of the resolution.

Resolution 1: Receive the 2024/25 annual report

The Board asks that shareholders receive the directors' and auditor's reports and the accounts for the 52 week period ended 29 March 2025.

Resolution 2: Approval of the Directors' Remuneration Report

The directors are required to prepare the Directors' Remuneration Report, comprising an annual report detailing the remuneration of the directors and a statement on behalf of the Remuneration Committee. The Company is required to seek shareholders' approval in respect of the contents of this report on an annual basis (excluding the part containing the Directors' Remuneration Policy). The vote is an advisory one.

Resolution 3: Approval of a final dividend

A final dividend can only be paid by the Company if it has been approved by shareholders.

This resolution is to approve a final dividend of 2.8 pence per ordinary share of the Company for the 52 week period ended 29 March 2025, recommended by the directors. If approved, the final dividend will be paid on 25 July 2025 to all shareholders on the register of members at close of business on 27 June 2025.

Resolutions 4 to 13: Election of directors

The UK Corporate Governance Code (the "Code") recommends that all directors stand for annual re-election. Accordingly, all directors will seek re-election at this year's AGM. Biographical details of the directors are given in Appendix 1 to the Notice. The directors believe that the Board continues to maintain an appropriate balance of knowledge and skills. This follows an assessment by the Nomination Committee which confirmed that each director makes an effective and valuable contribution to the Board and demonstrates commitment to the role (including making sufficient time available for Board and committee meetings and other duties as required).

The Board considers that Roisin Donnelly, Tim Elliott, Tania Howarth, Helen Jones, Lorna Tilbian and Malcolm Waugh are independent non-executive directors ("NEDs"). Colin Day was also considered independent, upon appointment as Group Chair in August 2019. Yuichiro Kogo was appointed as a representative director under the terms of the relationship agreement between the Company and our largest shareholder, Nissin Foods Holdings Co., Ltd. Whilst fully independent of management, he is not considered independent under the Code.

Resolutions 14 and 15: Reappointment and remuneration of auditor

On the recommendation of the Audit Committee, the Board proposes, in Resolution 14, that PwC be reappointed as auditor of the Company. Resolution 15 proposes that, following normal practice, the Audit Committee be authorised to set the auditor's remuneration.

Resolution 16: Authority to make political donations

Part 14 of the Companies Act 2006 prohibits companies from making political donations exceeding £50,000 in aggregate in any 12-month period to (i) political parties, (ii) other political organisations and (iii) independent election candidates; and from incurring political expenditure without shareholders' consent. However, the legal definitions used in the Companies Act 2006 are very broadly drafted. As a result, they may catch normal business activities such as funding seminars and other functions to which politicians are invited, supporting certain bodies involved in policy review and law reform and matching employees' donations to certain charities.

Accordingly, the Board has decided to seek shareholder authority on a precautionary basis only, to ensure that the Company's normal business activities are within the Companies Act 2006, allowing the Company and its subsidiaries to make donations and incur expenditure which may be deemed to fall within this legislation capped at £50,000 per annum.

It remains the Company's policy not to make political donations or incur political expenditure within the ordinary meaning of those words, and the directors do not intend to use the authority for that purpose. In line with best practice guidelines published by the Investment Association ("IA"), this resolution is put to shareholders annually rather than every four years, as required by the Companies Act 2006.

Resolution 17: Authority to allot shares

Under the Companies Act 2006, the directors may allot shares and grant rights to subscribe for or convert any securities into shares, if authorised to do so in a general meeting. The authority being renewed will permit the directors to:

• a) allot ordinary shares or grant rights to subscribe for or convert any securities into ordinary shares of the Company up to an aggregate nominal amount equal to £28,959,860 (representing 289,598,600 ordinary shares). This amount represents approximately one-third of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company as at the date of this Notice; and
• b) allot ordinary shares or grant rights to subscribe for or convert any securities into ordinary shares in the Company in connection with a preemptive offer (including an offer by way of rights issue or an open offer), up to an aggregate nominal amount of £57,919,721, (representing 579,197,210 ordinary shares), as reduced by the nominal amount of any shares issued under paragraph (a) of this resolution. This amount (before any reduction) represents approximately two-thirds of the Company's issued ordinary share capital as at the date of this Notice.

The directors have no intention at present to exercise either of the authorities sought under this resolution, however the Board wishes to ensure that the Company has maximum flexibility in managing its capital resources. Should the directors decide to exercise the authorities, they intend to follow IA recommendations concerning their use (including as regards the directors standing for re-election in certain cases). As at the date of this Notice, no shares are held by the Company in treasury.

The authorities sought under Resolution 17 will expire at the conclusion of the next AGM of the Company (or, if earlier, at the close of business on 17 October 2026).

Resolutions 18 and 19: Disapplication of pre-emption rights

Conditional upon the passing of Resolution 17, Resolutions 18 and 19 will be proposed, in which the Board is seeking authority to allot ordinary shares (or sell any ordinary shares which the Company elects to hold in treasury) for cash without first offering them to the existing shareholders in proportion to their existing shareholdings. This right of shareholders is commonly known as a pre-emption right.

At the Company's last AGM held on 18 July 2024, the Company was granted the authority to issue, on a non-pre-emptive basis for cash, shares in any one year representing: (i) no more than 10% of the Company's issued ordinary share capital; and (ii) no more than an additional 10% of the Company's issued ordinary share capital, provided that such additional authority is only used in connection with an acquisition or specified capital investment. This authority reflected the Statement of Principles on Disapplying Pre-Emption Rights published by the Pre-Emption Group in November 2022.

The 2022 Statement of Principles defines a 'specified capital investment' as 'one or more specific capital investment related uses for the proceeds of an issuance of equity securities, in respect of which sufficient information regarding the effect of the transaction on the listed company, the assets, the subject of the transaction and (where appropriate) the profits attributable to them is made available to shareholders to enable them to reach an assessment of the potential return'. Items that are regarded as operating expenditure, rather than capital expenditure, will not typically be regarded as falling within the term 'specified capital investment'.

32390 Premier Foods Notice of Meeting 2025.indd 4 27/05/2025 12:07:58

Resolution 18 is to be proposed as a special resolution. If this resolution is passed by shareholders, it will permit the Board to allot ordinary shares for cash on a non-pre-emptive basis both (i) in connection with a rights issue or similar pre-emptive issue and, (ii) otherwise than in connection with any such issue, up to a maximum nominal amount of £8,687,958 (representing 86,879,580 ordinary shares). This amount represents approximately 10% of the Company's issued ordinary share capital as at the date of this Notice. The third part of this resolution will permit the Board to allot ordinary shares for cash for the purposes of a follow-on offer (as determined by the Board) when an allotment of shares has been made under the second part of this resolution and is limited to the allotment of shares having an aggregate nominal value of up to 20% of the nominal value of any shares allotted under the second part of this resolution. This resolution will permit the Board to allot ordinary shares for cash, up to the specified level, in any circumstances (whether or not in connection with an acquisition or specified capital investment).

Resolution 19 is to be proposed as a separate special resolution. If this resolution is passed by shareholders, it will permit the Board to allot additional ordinary shares for cash on a non-pre-emptive basis up to a further maximum nominal amount of £8,687,958 (representing 86,879,580 ordinary shares). This amount also represents approximately 10% of the Company's issued ordinary share capital as at the date of this Notice. The second part of this resolution will permit the Board to allot ordinary shares for cash for the purposes of a follow-on offer (as determined by the Board) when an allotment of shares has been made under the first part of this authority and is limited to the allotment of shares having an aggregate nominal value of up to 20% of the nominal value of any shares allotted under the first part of this authority. The Board will use the authority conferred by Resolution 19 only in connection with an acquisition or a specified capital investment which is announced contemporaneously with the issue, or which has taken place in the preceding 12-month period and is disclosed in the announcement of the issue.

Resolutions 18 and 19 have been drafted in line with the template resolutions published by the Pre-Emption Group in November 2022.

The directors have not changed the Company's strategy and have no current intention of exercising the authorities in Resolutions 18 and 19 to make non-pre-emptive offers, however the directors consider them to be appropriate in order to allow the Company the maximum flexibility to respond to market developments and to finance business opportunities should they arise. The directors confirm that, should they utilise the authorities in Resolutions 18 and 19, they intend to follow the shareholder protections set out in Section 2B of the Pre-Emption Group's Statement of Principles.

The authorities sought under Resolutions 18 and 19 will expire at the conclusion of the next AGM of the Company (or, if earlier, at the close of business on 17 October 2026).

Resolution 20: Notice period for general meetings

Under the Companies Act 2006, the notice period for general meetings is 21 clear days unless shareholders approve a shorter notice period, which cannot, however, be less than 14 clear days. AGMs will continue to be held on at least 21 clear days' notice. The Board is proposing Resolution 20 to allow the Company to be able to call general meetings (other than AGMs) on 14 clear days' notice. The shorter notice period would not be used as a matter of routine for such meetings, but only where the flexibility is merited by the business of the meeting and is thought to be to the advantage of shareholders as a whole.

Additional Notes

1. Voting

Pursuant to DTR 6.1.12R(2) of the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules as at the date of this Notice, the Company had in issue 868,795,815 ordinary shares carrying one vote each. Therefore, the total voting rights in the Company as at the date of this Notice are 868,795,815.

Pursuant to Regulation 41(1) of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001 (S.I. 2001/3755), the Company specifies that only those shareholders who are registered on the Company's share register (the "Register") at 6.30 pm on Tuesday 15 July 2025 (the "Specified Time") shall be entitled to vote at the AGM in respect of the ordinary shares in the capital of the Company registered in their names at that time.

We look forward to welcoming shareholders who wish to attend and vote in person.

Please note that attendance at the meeting is restricted to shareholders only and no guests will be permitted to attend. If it becomes necessary or appropriate to make changes to the format of the AGM, we will inform shareholders as soon as practicable via our website (www.premierfoods.co.uk).

Shareholders should check our website to ensure they have the most up to date information available regarding the AGM.

Changes to entries on the Register, for certificated and uncertificated shares of the Company, after the Specified Time, shall be disregarded in determining the rights of any person to vote at the meeting. Should the AGM be adjourned to a time not more than 48 hours after the Specified Time, that time will also apply for the purpose of determining the entitlement of members to vote (and for the purpose of determining the number of votes they may cast) at the adjourned AGM. Should the AGM be adjourned for a longer period, to be so entitled, members must have been entered on the Register by 6.30 pm two days prior to the adjourned AGM or, if the Company gives notice of the adjourned AGM, at the time specified in such notice.

2. Corporate Representatives

A member of the Company, which is a corporation, may authorise a person or persons to act as its representative(s) at the AGM.

In accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act 2006 (as amended by the Companies (Shareholders' Rights) Regulations 2009), each such representative may exercise (on behalf of the corporation) the same powers as the corporation could exercise if it were an individual member of the Company, provided that they do not do so in relation to the same shares. It is, therefore, no longer necessary to nominate a designated corporate representative.

3. Proxies

You are requested to complete the enclosed form of proxy and return it to the Company's registrar, together with any power of attorney or other authority (if any) under which it is signed, or a notarially certified copy thereof, at the following address: Equiniti, Aspect House, Spencer Road, Lancing, BN99 6DA.

Alternatively, members are entitled to appoint a proxy to vote on their behalf at the meeting

via the electronic proxy voting system (by logging onto www.shareview.co.uk) or (for shares held through CREST) via the CREST proxy voting system in accordance with Note 8 below. Members who wish to appoint a proxy should do so as soon as possible and, in any event, so as to be received no later than 12.00 pm on Tuesday 15 July 2025 or, in the event that the meeting is adjourned, not less than 48 hours before the time for holding any adjourned meeting. Any form of proxy received after this time will be void.

The completion and submission of a form of proxy, electronic proxy instructions or CREST proxy instruction (as described below in Note 8) will not prevent you from attending the AGM and voting in person, if you so wish, subject to the restrictions set out in this document.

If you do not wish, or are unable, to attend, you may appoint either the Chair of the meeting, or one or more persons of your choice, to exercise all or any of your rights to attend and to speak and vote at the meeting. That person is known as a "proxy". You are advised to use the enclosed form of proxy to appoint a proxy.

You may appoint more than one proxy provided each proxy is appointed to exercise rights attached to different shares.

You may not appoint more than one proxy to exercise rights attached to any one share.

To appoint more than one proxy, additional proxy forms may be obtained by contacting the registrar, Equiniti, on their helpline +44 (0)371 384 2030. Lines are open 8.30 am to 5.30 pm Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays in England and Wales) or you may photocopy the form of proxy enclosed with this Notice.

A proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company and can be either an individual or a body corporate. At the meeting, the proxy can act for the member he or she represents.

The proxy is valid for any adjournment of the meeting. A proxy may vote on any other business, which may properly come before the meeting, as that person thinks fit. If a proxy is not directed how to vote on an item of business, the proxy may vote, or abstain from voting, as they see fit. The appointment of the proxy may specify the proportion or the number of votes that the proxy may exercise. Where more than one proxy is appointed, and the appointment does not specify the proportion or number of the shareholder's votes, each proxy may exercise the number of votes proportionate to the number of proxies appointed.

A vote withheld is not a vote in law. If a proxy is instructed to abstain from voting on an item, that person is directed not to vote on the shareholder's behalf on the poll and the shares which are the subject of the proxy appointment will not be counted in computing the required majority.

Please mark the appropriate box alongside the resolution on the form of proxy to indicate whether you wish your votes to be cast "for", "against" or "withheld". Unless you give specific instructions on how to vote on the resolutions, your proxy will be able, at his or her discretion, either to vote "for", "against" or "withheld" in relation to any matter which is put before the AGM. Shareholders who return their form of proxy with a direction on how to vote, but do

32390 Premier Foods Notice of Meeting 2025.indd 6 27/05/2025 12:07:58

not nominate the identity of their proxy, will be taken to have appointed the Chair of the meeting as their proxy to vote on their behalf. If a form of proxy is returned, but the nominated proxy does not participate in the meeting, the Chair of the meeting will act in place of the nominated proxy and vote in accordance with any instructions. Proxy appointments in favour of the Chair of the meeting which do not contain a direction on how to vote, will be used where possible to support the resolutions proposed in this Notice.

Before posting the form of proxy to the registrar, please check that you have signed it. In the case of joint holders, any of you may sign it. Where more than one of the joint holders purports to appoint a proxy, only the appointment submitted by the most senior holder will be accepted. Seniority is determined by the order in which the names of the joint holders appear in the Register in respect of the joint holding (the first-named being the most senior).

4. Voting by poll

Voting on all resolutions will be conducted by way of a poll rather than a show of hands. This is a more transparent method of voting, as member votes are to be counted according to the number of shares held. As soon as practicable following the AGM, the results of the voting at the meeting and the number of proxy votes cast for and against and the number of votes actively withheld in respect of each of the resolutions will be announced via a Regulatory Information Service and also placed on the Company's website: www.premierfoods.co.uk.

5. Right to request a statement from the Company

Members satisfying the thresholds in section 527 of the Companies Act 2006 can require the Company to publish a statement on its website setting out any matter relating to:

• a) the audit of the Company's accounts (including the auditor's report and the conduct of the audit) that are to be laid before the AGM; or
• b) any circumstances connected with an auditor of the Company ceasing to hold office since the last AGM at which accounts and reports were laid in accordance with section 437 of the Companies Act 2006, which members propose to raise at the meeting.

The Company may not require the shareholders requesting any such website publication to pay its expenses in complying with sections 527 or 528 of the Companies Act 2006. Any statement placed on the website must also be sent to the Company's auditor no later than the time it makes its statement available on the website. The business, which may be dealt with at the AGM, includes any statement that the Company has been required to publish on its website pursuant to this right.

6. Right to ask questions at the AGM Any member attending the meeting has the right to ask questions. Pursuant to section 319A of the Companies Act 2006, the Company must cause to be answered at the AGM any question relating to the business being dealt with at the AGM, which is put by a member attending the meeting, but no answer need be

given if to do so would interfere unduly with the preparation of the meeting or involve the disclosure of confidential information, if the answer has already been given on a website, in the form of an answer to a question, or if it is undesirable in the interests of the Company or the good order of the meeting that the question be answered.

7. Shareholders' rights under Sections 338 and 338A of the Companies Act 2006

Under sections 338 and 338A of the Companies Act 2006, shareholders meeting the threshold requirements in those sections have the right to require the Company: (i) to give to shareholders of the Company entitled to receive notice of the AGM, notice of a resolution which may properly be moved and is intended to be moved at the AGM; and/ or (ii) to include in the business to be dealt with at the AGM any matter (other than a proposed resolution) which may be properly included in the business. A resolution may properly be moved or a matter may properly be included in the business unless: (a) (in the case of a resolution only) it would, if passed, be ineffective (whether by reason of inconsistency with any enactment or the Company's constitution or otherwise); (b) it is defamatory of any person; or (c) it is frivolous or vexatious. Such a request may be in hard copy form or in electronic form, must identify the resolution of which notice is to be given or the matter to be included in the business, must be authenticated by the person or persons making it, must be received by the Company no later than Wednesday 4 June 2025, being the date six clear weeks before the AGM and (in the case of a matter to be included in the business only) must be accompanied by a statement setting out the grounds for the request.

8. CREST

CREST members, who wish to appoint a proxy or proxies through the CREST electronic proxy appointment service, may do so by following the procedures described in the CREST Manual (available at www.euroclear. com). CREST personal members or other CREST sponsored members, and those CREST members who have appointed a voting service provider(s), should refer to their CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s), who will be able to take the appropriate action on their behalf.

In order for a proxy appointment or instruction made by means of CREST to be valid, the appropriate CREST message (a "CREST Proxy Instruction") must be properly authenticated in accordance with Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited ("EUI") specifications and must contain the information required for such instructions, as described in the CREST Manual. The message, regardless of whether it constitutes the appointment of proxy or an amendment to the instruction given to a previously appointed proxy must, in order to be valid, be transmitted so as to be received by Equiniti (CREST participant RA19) by the latest time(s) for receipt of proxy appointments specified in Note 3 above. For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the timestamp applied to the message by the CREST Applications Host) from which Equiniti is able to retrieve the message by enquiry to

CREST in the manner prescribed by CREST.

After this time, any change of instructions to proxies appointed through CREST should be communicated to the appointee through other means.

CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers should note that EUI does not make available special procedures in CREST for any particular messages. Normal system timings and limitations will therefore apply in relation to the input of CREST Proxy Instructions. It is the responsibility of the CREST member concerned to take (or, if the CREST member is a CREST personal member or sponsored member or has appointed a voting service provider(s), to procure that his CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s) take(s)) such action as shall be necessary to ensure that a message is transmitted by means of the CREST system by any particular time. In this connection, CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers are referred, in particular, to those sections of the CREST Manual concerning practical limitations of the CREST system and timings.

The Company may treat as invalid a CREST Proxy Instruction in the circumstances set out in Regulation 35(5)(a) of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001.

9. Online voting

It is possible for you to submit your proxy votes online by going to Equiniti's Shareview website, www.shareview.co.uk, and logging in to your Shareview Portfolio.

10. Proxymity

If you are an institutional investor, you may be able to appoint a proxy electronically via the Proxymity platform, a process which has been agreed by the Company and approved by the registrar. For further information regarding Proxymity, please go to www. proxymity.io. Your proxy must be lodged by 12:00 pm on Tuesday 15 July 2025 in order to be considered valid.

11. Information rights

A person, to whom this Notice is sent, who is a person nominated under section 146 of the Companies Act 2006 to enjoy information rights (a "Nominated Person") may, under an agreement between him/ her and the shareholder by whom he/she was nominated, have a right to be appointed (or to have someone else appointed) as a proxy for the AGM. If a Nominated Person has no such

32390 Premier Foods Notice of Meeting 2025.indd 7 27/05/2025 12:07:58

proxy appointment right, or does not wish to exercise it, he/she may, under any such agreement, have a right to give instructions to the shareholder as to the exercise of voting rights. The statements of the rights of members in relation to the appointment of proxies above do not apply to a Nominated Person. The rights described in these paragraphs can only be exercised by registered members of the Company.

12. Documents available at the meeting
