BURFORD CAPITAL LIMITED

Notification of transactions by persons discharging managerial responsibilities

Burford Capital Limited, the leading global finance and asset management firm focused on law, provides the following notifications of transactions by persons discharging managerial responsibilities (each, a "PDMR" and, collectively, "PDMRs").

Investment in Shares through Burford employee deferred compensation plan

On November 20, 2023, David Perla, Co-Chief Operating Officer, used his deferred cash compensation to purchase 1,330 ordinary shares of nil par value of Burford Capital Limited (the "Shares") through the Burford employee deferred compensation plan.

Further details about the Burford employee deferred compensation plan can be found in Burford's Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission on May 16, 2023. In essence, Burford employees are able to elect to defer cash compensation, without incurring current taxes, into the Burford employee deferred compensation plan, which in turn permits the full amount of that deferred compensation to be allocated to the Shares (or for other investment options). This is a tax-efficient way for employees to continue to accumulate exposure to the Shares.

Estate planning by Mr. Molot

On November 20, 2023, a 4.918453% interest in Jonathan Molot LLC ("JM LLC"), a company which is controlled by Chief Investment Officer Jonathan Molot and which holds 6,000,000 Shares, was transferred from Jonathan T. Molot August 2022 Trust to Mr. Molot, and Mr. Molot transferred a 4.918453% interest in JM LLC to Jonathan T. Molot November 2023 Trust. Ongoing annual movement of ownership interests in JM LLC back-and-forth between Mr. Molot and annual trusts established by Mr. Molot, of which he and his family members are the beneficiaries, is expected as a normal part of the US estate planning undertaken.

The Notification of Dealing Forms for these transactions set forth above are included at the end of this announcement.
