Update on Simplification of corporate structure

Following approval from shareholders at the Annual General Meeting held on 9 May 2019, the boards of Mondi Limited and Mondi plc (together, the “Boards”) confirm that good progress is being made in implementing the Simplification, including the processes to obtain the necessary regulatory consents.

Given all regulatory consents have not yet been received, the indicative date for fulfilment or waiver of the conditions for the Simplification, as set out in the Mondi Limited circular, the Mondi plc circular and the Mondi plc prospectus, each published on 26 March 2019, and the related dates and times (including the Finalisation Date, Scheme Record Time and Scheme Effective Time), have been extended.

Completion of the Simplification continues to be expected in the second half of 2019. Further information on the timetable for completion will be provided in due course.
