FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Lecram Holdings Limited (Lecram")

NO INTENTION TO BID STATEMENT

Further to the announcements made by Purplebricks Group plc ("Purplebricks"), on 26 May 2023, that it had received an indicative offer proposal from Lecram to acquire the entire issued and to be issued share capital of Puplebricks, Lecram Holdings Limited today confirms that it has decided not to proceed with its indicative offer proposal and therefore it is not intending to make an offer.

The reason leading to Lecram's decision not to proceed is, principally, that the financial condition of Purplebricks was found to be significantly worse than expected.

This is a statement to which Rule 2.8 of the Takeover Code applies.
