Dear Shareholder

You can appoint another person (a proxy) to attend, speak and/or vote at the AGM on your behalf. Regardless of whether or not you intend to attend the AGM in person, we strongly encourage you to appoint the Chair of the Meeting to act as your proxy to ensure your vote is counted. Details of how to appoint a proxy are set out on the attached Proxy Card.
You can find full details of the resolutions to be proposed for approval at the AGM, with explanatory notes, in the 2026 Notice of Meeting which is available to view online at harbourenergy.com. Please read the notes on the back of the AGM Proxy Card before completing it.
Please note that no presentations on the company's business will be given at the Meeting and no refreshments will be available. Instead, the Board has arranged for a presentation to be made available on the company's website at harbourenergy.com on the morning of 7 May 2026.
The directors will be available at the AGM to take questions relevant to the business of the Meeting. If you would like to submit questions ahead of the Meeting, instructions on how to do so are set out in the 2026 Notice of Meeting.
Our share registrar, Equiniti, must receive your online or postal proxy appointment and voting instructions by 10:00am on Tuesday 5 May 2026 to ensure your vote is counted.

Have you received your dividends?
Harbour Energy plc pays dividends directly into shareholder bank accounts. If you have not yet provided our registrar, Equiniti, with your bank or building society account details, your final dividend payment for the year ended 31 December 2025 will be retained on your behalf, until it can be paid to you electronically.
Can I reinvest my dividends instead? Instead of receiving dividend payments you may wish to build up your shareholding in Harbour Energy plc by reinvesting future dividends to purchase further Harbour Energy plc shares. The Dividend Reinvestment Plan is a convenient, easy and cost effective way to do this. Please visit shareview.co.uk/info/drip for more information and a DRIP application form. Terms, conditions and fees apply.
Please note: To have any retained dividends paid to you as cash you will still need to provide your bank or building society details to Equiniti, even if you wish to join the DRIP for future dividend payments.
What if I do nothing? If you take no action you will not receive any Harbour Energy plc dividend payments until we receive your bank or building society account details.
You can provide your details:
ONLINE
Log on or register for an Equiniti Shareview Portfolio at shareview.co.uk.
BY PHONE
If you are a sole holder with 2,500 shares or fewer you can provide your nominated account details by contacting Equiniti on +44 (0) 371 384 2030. Lines are open 08:30 to 17:30 (UK time) Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays in England and Wales).
BY POST
Simply complete the form below, detach this page from the Proxy Card opposite, and send it to Equiniti using the return-addressed envelope provided.
Bank mandate form
Payments direct to your bank/building society account:

Please forward, until further notice, all dividends or interest that may from time to time become payable to me/us in respect of any shares or stock held in Harbour Energy plc to the above nominated bank or building society, or to such other branch of the organisation as the bank or building society may from time to time request. Compliance with this request will discharge the company's liability in respect of such dividends or other monies.
