Ms Yushra Haniff Adviser, Listings Compliance Australian Securities Exchange 20 Bridge Street Sydney NSW 2000

29 May 2023

Dear Ms Haniff

Appendix 3Y – Change of Director's Interest Notice

Enclosed is an Appendix 3Y Notice by Santos Limited for Kevin Gallagher in respect of an award of deferred shares as part of the 2022 short term incentive (deferred STI shares) and allocation of share acquisition rights resulting from the long term incentive grant approved by shareholders at the AGM held on 6 April 2023.

The deferred STI shares are held by Santos' employee share plan trustee. The beneficial interests in the shares were allocated to Mr Gallagher on 27 March 2023 in full compliance with the Company's Securities Trading Policy (which provides for the Company Secretary to lodge an Appendix 3Y when there is a change in Director's interests). Due to an administrative oversight, an Appendix 3Y was not lodged within the prescribed time period. Santos has recognised this error and notified the ASX. In addition, Santos has reviewed its processes and taken steps to ensure that future share allocations to Mr Gallagher will be lodged in accordance with the time period prescribed by the ASX Listing Rules.

Yours sincerely,

Amanda Devonish Company Secretary
