The Company confirms that on 22 November 2021, Computershare Trustees (Jersey) Limited, acting as trustee of the Grainger plc Employee Benefit Trust (the "EBT"), purchased in the market a total of 1,000,000 Ordinary shares of nominal value 0.05 pence each in the capital of the Company at a price of £3.145 per share.

Immediately following settlement of the above transaction, the EBT will hold 1,438,004 Ordinary shares, representing 0.19% of the Company's issued share capital with voting rights. All shares held by the EBT will ultimately be used to satisfy share awards and options granted under the Company's various share incentive arrangements.
