Dear Shareholder

Change of Auditor

I am writing to inform you that on 10 May 2018, SIG plc (the "Company") held its Annual General Meeting ("AGM"). Resolution 11, to re-appoint Deloitte LLP ("Deloitte") as auditor of the Company, was not approved by shareholders at the AGM. As a result, Deloitte has ceased to be the Company's auditor. Following the AGM, the Company announced that the Board intends to carry out an audit tender process to appoint a new auditor.

The Companies Act 2006 requires an auditor of a public company who ceases to hold office to send to the company a statement of the circumstances connected with their ceasing to hold office. The company is then required to send a copy of that statement of circumstances to its shareholders, and other persons who are entitled to receive copies of the company's Annual Report and Accounts.

Accordingly, enclosed with this letter is a copy of Deloitte's statement of circumstances, which was deposited with the Company on 10 May 2018, following the conclusion of the AGM. It notes that the resolution proposed on 10 May 2018 to appoint Deloitte as auditors to hold office until the conclusion of the next general meeting was not approved by shareholders.

This letter is for information purposes only and has been provided solely in order to comply with the requirements in the Companies Act 2006. No further action is required from you in relation to the contents of this letter.

Yours sincerely

Richard Monro Company Secretary
