REQUEST BY PAGEGROUP PLC TO SEND OR SUPPLY DOCUMENTS TO SHAREHOLDERS VIA A WEBSITE

10 April 2017

Dear Shareholder

I am writing to you as PageGroup plc (the 'Company') proposes to send and/or supply documents and information, including the annual report and accounts, to you as a shareholder of the Company via the Company's website, www.page.com. The annual report and accounts which accompanies this letter will be the last paper copy you will receive unless you complete and return the reply slip attached to this shareholder letter.

The Company's Articles of Association and the UK Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules permit the Company to communicate with its shareholders via a website or electronically provided certain requirements are fulfilled. This includes a requirement that the Company contacts you individually to request your consent for the use of electronic means and/or the Company's website for conveying documents and information to you.

The Company considers that implementation of this proposal will deliver savings to the Company in terms of administration, printing and postage costs, as well as speeding up the provision of information to shareholders. The reduced use of paper and transport of reports will also benefit the environment.

The purpose of this shareholder letter is to offer you the choice to continue to receive documents in paper form. Please note that there may be particular circumstances, including where required by law, in which the Company needs to send information to you in paper form rather than by the Company's website, in which case the Company reserves the right to do so.

If, at a later date you wish to change your choice of means of communication, you may notify the Company by writing to our registrars, Capita, at SAS, 34 Beckenham Road, Beckenham, Kent, BR3 9ZA or alternatively at FREEPOST CAPITA SAS.

Documents made available on the Company's website may be made available in PDF format. To view PDF documents you need Adobe Acrobat Reader software. This program is available free of charge on the Adobe website (www.adobe.com).

Action Required by You:

If you wish to continue to receive information in paper form please complete the reply slip below and return it to the Company's registrars, Capita, at SAS, 34 Beckenham Road, Beckenham, Kent, BR3 9ZA or alternatively at FREEPOST CAPITA SAS.

If we do not receive a response from you by 30 June 2017 your consent will be considered to have been given under Rules 6.1.8(4)(a) of the UK Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules and the Company's Articles of Association, and the Company may supply information to you via a website. In such cases we will no longer send you paper copies of information which we intend to provide to shareholders via a website, but we will notify you by post when this information becomes available on the Company's website.

If you have any questions in connection with this proposal and how its implementation may affect you, please contact me via the registrars at the above address.

Yours faithfully

Elaine Marriner Company Secretary For and on behalf of PageGroup plc

PAGEGROUP PLC

(Registered in England and Wales No: 3310225)
