This disclosure is to reflect the fact that the voting rights effectively held indirectly by the underlying intermediate holding company Standard Life Investments (Holdings) Limited (“SLIHL”) and held by the underlying investment management entity Standard Life Investments Limited (“SLIL”) dropped below the 5% notifiable threshold due to trading on 17 April 2020. Prior to this crossing SLIHL effectively held and SLIL held the delegated voting rights to 5.02% of the shares in PayPoint plc.
