2021 H1 Distribution - determination of currency amounts

Glencore confirms that:

1. as approved by shareholders at yesterday's AGM, it will make a return of capital on 21 May 2021 to holders of record on the Jersey register at the close of business on 23 April 2021

2. this repayment is of US$0.06 per ordinary share and is to be made in US dollars, although shareholders on the Jersey register who have opted for a different currency by 26 April 2021 will receive their distribution payments in either Pounds Sterling, Euros or Swiss Francs. Shareholders who formerly held shares through the Computershare Hong Kong nominee will receive distribution payments in US dollars unless they elected to receive payments in either Swiss francs, Sterling or Euros, or subscribe to the global payment service to elect to receive payments in the currency of their choosing (including Hong Kong Dollars), by 26 April 2021.

Elections will remain in place until revoked by the shareholder.

3. the Pound Sterling, Euro and Swiss Franc amounts payable are determined by reference to the closing mid exchange rates applicable to the US dollar on Thursday 29 April 2021.

The following rates were published in the Financial Times guide to world currencies today:

GBP/USD	EUR/USD	USD/CHF
1.3946	1.2112	0.9111

Accordingly, for non US dollar payments the amount payable per share on 21 May 2021 will be approximately:

Pounds Sterling	Euros	Swiss Francs
0.043023	0.049538	0.054666

An announcement was made in South Africa on 19 April 2021 regarding the determination of the South African Rand amount payable in respect of shares on the Johannesburg register.
