THE COMPANIES ACT 2006

SPECIAL RESOLUTIONS OF BABCOCK INTERNATIONAL GROUP PLC (Company Number: 02342138)

PASSED ON THURSDAY 25 SEPTEMBER 2025

Disapplication of Pre-emption Rights

To resolve that, in substitution for all such existing authorities, and subject to the passing of Resolution 17, the Directors of the Company be and are hereby generally empowered, pursuant to sections 570 and 573 of the 2006 Act, to:

  • (a) allot equity securities (as defined in section 560(1) of the 2006 Act) for cash pursuant to the authority conferred by Resolution 17; and/or
  • (b) sell ordinary shares (as defined in section 560(1) of the 2006 Act) held by the Company as treasury shares for cash,

in each case, free of the restriction in section 561 of the 2006 Act, provided that such authority shall be limited to:

  • (i) the allotment of equity securities and/or sale of treasury shares for cash in connection with or pursuant to an offer of, or invitation to apply for, equity securities (but in the case of an allotment pursuant to the authority granted under paragraph (b) of Resolution 17, by way of a pre-emptive offer (including an offer by way of a rights issue or an open offer) only):
    • A. to ordinary shareholders in proportion (as nearly as may be practicable) to their holdings; and
    • B. to holders of other equity securities, as required by the rights of those securities or, subject to such rights, as the Directors otherwise consider necessary,

but subject to such limits, exclusions, restrictions or other arrangements as the Directors of the Company may consider necessary or appropriate to deal with treasury shares, fractional entitlements, record dates, legal, regulatory or practical difficulties which may arise in, or under the laws or regulatory requirements of, any territory or any other matter whatsoever;

(ii) the allotment of equity securities pursuant to the authority granted by paragraph (a) of Resolution 17 and/or sale of treasury shares for cash (in each case otherwise than in the circumstances set out in paragraph (i) of this Resolution 19), up to an aggregate nominal amount of £30,335,795, calculated in the case of equity securities which are rights to subscribe for, or to convert securities into, ordinary shares, by reference to the aggregate nominal amount of relevant shares which may be allotted pursuant to such rights; and

the allotment of equity securities or sale of treasury shares (otherwise than under paragraph (i) or paragraph (ii) above) up to a nominal amount equal to 20% of any allotment of equity securities or sale of treasury shares from time to time under paragraph (ii) above, such power to be used only for the purposes of making a follow-on offer which the Board determines to be of a kind contemplated by paragraph 3 of Section 2B of the Statement of Principles on Disapplying Pre-Emption Rights most recently published by the Pre-Emption Group prior to the date of this notice, such authority to apply (unless previously renewed, varied or revoked by the Company in general meeting) until the end of the Company's next annual general meeting (or, if earlier, until the close of business on 24 December 2026) but, in each case, so that the Company may make offers and enter into agreements before the authority expires which would, or might, require equity securities to be allotted (and/or treasury shares to be sold) after the authority expires and the Directors of the Company may allot equity securities (and/or sell treasury shares) under any such offer or agreement as if the authority conferred hereby had not expired.

  • (c) the maximum number of ordinary shares hereby authorised to be purchased shall be 50,559,659 shares, representing approximately 10% of the issued share capital of the Company at 9 July 2025 (being the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this notice);

  • (f) the authority hereby conferred shall (unless previously renewed, varied or revoked by the Company at a general meeting) expire at the end of the Company's next annual general meeting (or, if earlier, the close of business on 24 December 2026); and
  • (g) the Company may, before this authority expires, make a contract to purchase ordinary shares which will or may be executed wholly or partly after the expiry of this authority, and may make purchases of ordinary shares in pursuance of any such contract as if this authority had not expired.
