DIRECTORATE CHANGE

The Board of Directors of Triple Point Social Housing REIT plc is pleased to announce the appointment of Bryan Sherriff to the Board as an Independent Non-Executive Director with effect from 1 January 2025. Bryan Sherriff will also be appointed as a member of the Audit Committee, Nomination Committee and Sustainability & Impact Committee.

Bryan has over 30 years' property investment, development and management experience throughout the UK across commercial and residential sectors. Bryan is currently Managing Director of ColdSpring, which provides consultancy services to institutional investors and private client family offices. He is also a Governor of George Heriot's Trust, a Non-Executive Director of Hillcrest Enterprise and a Non-Executive Director of Places for People Scotland. Prior to his current roles, Bryan has held a number of development, investment and asset management positions, including as Development Director and latterly Head of Asset Management at Halladale plc. In 2015, Bryan established Drum Income Plus REIT plc and was its Fund Manager up to November 2021. Bryan is a Chartered Surveyor and is a fellow of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (FRICS).

There are no other details that are required to be disclosed in respect of Rule 6.4.8 of the Financial Conduct Authority's Listing Rules.

Chris Phillips, Ian Reeves and Peter Coward are each approaching the end of their nine-year tenure in 2026, and therefore the Board has developed a Succession Plan to ensure a gradual refresh of the Board. Bryan Sherriff's appointment is part of this process and he will replace Ian Reeves who will step down at the 2025 AGM following an orderly handover.

Chris Phillips, Chair of the Company, commented:

"We are very pleased to welcome Bryan Sherriff as an Independent Non-Executive Director to the Board. He has valuable experience in property development, investment and asset management, and we look forward to working with him."

As announced yesterday, following the signing of the new alternative investment fund management agreement, an application has been made to change the Company's name to "Social Housing REIT plc". A further announcement will be made pursuant to UKLR 6.4.14(R)(1) in due course.
