* The options granted to Mark Foster and Helen Gilder vested upon the Grant Date and relate to the settlement of accrued remuneration for prior years. The Company has determined to issue nil-cost options to these Non-executive Directors, rather than shares in lieu of cash remuneration, for tax planning purposes. The Share Plan was modified in May 2021 to permit the grant of options to Non-executive Directors as part of their standard remuneration package.

The options granted to the Executive Directors will vest as set out below , subject to the Director continuing to hold their position with the Company, with vesting periods referenced to their respective appointment dates. An Employee Benefit Trust is in process of being established.

Paul Langworthy

   --      4,411,110 options upon the establishment of an Employee Benefit Trust; 
   --      3,555,555 options 1 July 2021; 
   --      427,778 options 1 April 2022; and 
   --      3,555,557 options on 1 July 2022. 

Michael Juskiewicz

   --      One-third upon the establishment of an Employee Benefit Trust; 
   --      One-third on 18 July 2021; and 
   --      One-third on 18 July 2022. 

All of the options granted to Executive Directors and Non-executive Directors expire on the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date.

Change of Auditor

7digital has appointed Haysmacintyre LLP as the auditor for the Company. A resolution in respect of the reappointment of the Company's auditor will be put to a shareholder's vote at the Company's next Annual General Meeting.

In accordance with Section 519 of the Companies Act 2006, the Company's previous auditor, BDO LLP, has deposited with the Company a statement confirming that there are no matters connected with it ceasing to hold office that need to be brought to the attention of members or creditors of the Company.
