Update on 2021 AGM

As previously announced, Man Group plc (the "Company") will hold its Annual General Meeting ("AGM") at Riverbank House, 2 Swan Lane, London, EC4R 3AD on Friday 7 May 2021 at 10:00am.

The Company expects the UK Government's current restrictions on public gatherings due to the COVID-19 pandemic to remain in place as at the date of the AGM. As a result, unfortunately, it will not be possible for shareholders to attend the AGM in person. Shareholders may instead join the meeting virtually via a live webcast or by telephone, details of which will be provided on the Company's website ( www.man.com/investor-relations ) closer to the date of the meeting.

Voting at the AGM will be on a poll and will reflect all proxy voting instructions duly received in advance of the meeting.  As physical shareholder attendance at the AGM will not be permitted, it will not be possible for shareholders to vote at the meeting. Shareholders are instead encouraged to vote on each of the resolutions set out in the Notice of Meeting in advance of the AGM by appointing the Chair of the meeting as their proxy, with voting instructions. Full details on how to vote can be found within the Notice of Meeting, which is available on the Company's website. Shareholders are reminded that votes should be received by no later than 10:00am on Wednesday 5 May 2021.

The Company believes that the AGM is an important opportunity to engage with shareholders and is therefore keen to answer any questions on the business of the meeting. Shareholders are encouraged to submit questions in advance by emailing [e-mail] . Answers to all questions received by 5:00pm on 23 April 2021 will be published on the Company's website by 5:00pm on 28 April 2021 to enable shareholders to make a fully informed voting decision prior to the deadline for submitting proxy votes. A response to questions received after 23 April 2021 will be provided at the AGM. There will also be an opportunity to pose questions during the meeting itself.

The Company will continue to monitor developments around the UK Government's guidance on COVID-19 related restrictions and, if appropriate, will communicate any further changes to the AGM arrangements via the Company's website or by regulatory announcement.  Shareholders are encouraged to check the website ( www.man.com/investor-relations ) regularly for updates.
