SELP JOINT VENTURE - AMENDMENT OF SHAREHOLDERS' AGREEMENT

SEGRO plc ("SEGRO") announces that its subsidiary, SEGRO Luxembourg, has amended certain terms of the existing shareholders' agreement with PSP Britannia (amongst others), in relation to the SEGRO European Logistics Partnership ("SELP") joint venture (the "SHA").

The SHA contains customary provisions under which, following certain specified events of default, the non-defaulting shareholder may give notice to the defaulting shareholder requiring it to sell all of its interests in the SELP joint venture to the non-defaulting shareholder.  Following the amendment referred to above, the cap on any consideration paid to SEGRO Luxembourg under such provisions has been increased to the greater of (i) £1.52 billion and (ii) 24.9% of the market capitalisation or total assets (whichever the lesser) of SEGRO.

No consideration was exchanged in respect of the amendment referred to above.

The value of SEGRO's share of the gross assets and profits attributable to those assets of the SELP joint venture are £1.337 billion and £112.6 million, respectively, as 31 December 2017.
