2024 H2 Distribution

Determination of currency amounts

Glencore confirms that:

1. On 29 May 2024, the shareholders resolved to pay an aggregate distribution of US$0.13 per share in respect of the financial year ended 31 December 2023, payable in H1 and H2 in two equal tranches of US$0.065 per share from the capital contribution reserves of the Company.

2. This repayment is of US$0.065 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 2 September 2024 will receive their distribution payments in either Pounds Sterling, Euros or Swiss Francs. 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 5 September 2024.

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

GBP/USD	EUR/USD	USD/CHF
1.3158	1.1079	0.8484

Accordingly, for non-US dollar payments the amount payable per share on 20 September 2024 will be approximately:

Pounds Sterling	Euros	Swiss Francs
0.049400	0.058670	0.055146

An announcement was made in South Africa on 19 August 2024 regarding the determination of the South African Rand amount payable in respect of shares on the Johannesburg register.

The distributions for 2024 may be deemed "qualified dividends" for US Federal income tax purposes (subject to certain holding period requirements). Distributions paid by the Company may constitute "qualified dividends" because the Company is a "qualified foreign corporation" for US Federal income tax purposes.
