Results of the Rump Placing
Following the announcement on 28 September 2022 regarding valid
acceptances under the fully underwritten Rights Issue announced by
Aston Martin Lagonda on 5 September 2022, the Company confirms that
J.P. Morgan Securities plc, Barclays Bank PLC, Credit Suisse
International and Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch, in their
capacity as Underwriters, have procured subscribers for all of the
31,737,331 New Ordinary Shares for which valid acceptances were not
received, representing approximately 5.7 per cent. of the New
Ordinary Shares, at a price of 132 pence per New Ordinary Share
(the "Placing Price"). Capitalised terms used but not defined
herein have the meanings assigned to them in the prospectus
published on 5 September 2022 (the "Prospectus").
The net proceeds from the placing of such New Ordinary Shares
(after the deduction of the Issue Price of 103 pence per New
Ordinary Share and the expenses of procuring subscribers including
any applicable brokerage and commissions and amounts in respect of
VAT which are not recoverable) will be paid (without interest) to
those persons whose rights have lapsed in accordance with the terms
of the Rights Issue, pro rata to their lapsed provisional
allotments, save that individual amounts of less than GBP5.00 will
not be paid to such persons but will be aggregated and paid to the
Company.
The Company also notes that: (i) The Public Investment Fund has
subscribed for 14,000,000 New Ordinary Shares at the Placing Price,
for an aggregate consideration of GBP18,480,000; and (ii) Yew Tree
Overseas Limited has subscribed for 4,860,469 New Ordinary Shares
at the Placing Price, for an aggregate consideration of
GBP6,415,819. The Public Investment Fund and Yew Tree Overseas
Limited are both related parties of the Company and these
transactions constitute smaller related party transactions for the
Company under Listing Rule 11.1.10R.

Cautionary statement regarding forward-looking statements
This announcement contains forward-looking statements, including
with respect to financial information, that are based on current
expectations or beliefs, as well as assumptions about future
events. These forward-looking statements can be identified by the
fact that they do not relate only to historical or current facts.
Forward-looking statements often use words such as "anticipate",
"target", "expect", "estimate", "intend", "plan", "goal",
"believe", "will", "may", "should", "would", "could", "is
confident", or other words of similar meaning. Undue reliance
should not be placed on any such statements because they speak only
as at the date of this announcement and, by their very nature, they
are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties and can be
affected by other factors that could cause actual results, and the
Company's plans and objectives, to differ materially from those
expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. No
representation or warranty is made that any forward-looking
statement will come to pass.
You are advised to read the Prospectus in its entirety, and, in
particular, the section of the Prospectus headed "Risk Factors",
for a further discussion of the factors that could affect the
Group's future performance and the industry in which it operates.
In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the events
described in the forward-looking statements, including statements
regarding prospective financial information, in this announcement
may not occur. These statements are not fact and should not be
relied upon as being necessarily indicative of future results, and
readers of this announcement are cautioned not to place undue
reliance on the forward-looking statements, including those
regarding prospective financial information.
No statement in this announcement is intended as a profit
forecast, and no statement in this announcement should be
interpreted to mean that underlying operating profit for the
current or future financial years would necessarily be above a
minimum level, or match or exceed the historical published
operating profit or set a minimum level of operating profit.
Neither the Company nor any of the Underwriters is under any
obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking
statement contained within this announcement, whether as a result
of new information, future events or otherwise, other than in
accordance with their legal or regulatory obligations (including,
for the avoidance of doubt, the Prospectus Regulation Rules, the
Listing Rules and Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules).
