PART I

ACTION TO BE TAKEN

1 General summary

On 7 February 2024, the Barratt Board and the Redrow Board jointly announced that they had reached an agreement on the terms of a recommended all-share offer for the combination of Barratt and Redrow, pursuant to which Barratt will acquire the entire issued and to be issued ordinary share capital of Redrow to form the Combined Group. It is intended that the Combination will be effected by means of a court- approved scheme of arrangement between Redrow and the Redrow Shareholders, who are on the register of members of Redrow at the Scheme Record Time, under Part 26 of the Companies Act, although Barratt reserves the right to implement the Combination by means of a Takeover Offer (subject to the consent of the Panel and the terms of the Co-operation Agreement).

Barratt is seeking approval of the Combination and the Barratt Resolution at the Barratt General Meeting. Please read the notes to the Notice of Barratt General Meeting attached as Part IX-"Noticeof Barratt General Meeting" of this Circular for an explanation of how to attend and vote at the Barratt General Meeting, including how to appoint a proxy to attend and vote on your behalf.

The key steps for Barratt Shareholders are as follows:

Registering Your Vote

Further Information

  • Section 2 below for details of the actions you need to

take to vote on the Barratt Resolution

• The risk factors in Part III-"Riskfactors" of this Circular

2 Important action to be taken in relation to voting at the Barratt General Meeting

The Combination will require, amongst other conditions, the approval of Barratt Shareholders at the Barratt General Meeting to be held at the Seligman Theatre, Royal College of Physicians, 11 Saint Andrew's Place, London, NW1 4LE at 10.00 a.m. on 15 May 2024. Barratt Shareholders should read the Notice of Barratt General Meeting at Part IX-"Noticeof Barratt General Meeting" of this Circular for the full text of the Barratt Resolution and for further details about the Barratt General Meeting.

Barratt Shareholders may vote in person at the Barratt General Meeting or they may appoint another person as their proxy to attend, speak and vote in their place. A proxy need not be a member of Barratt. Barratt Shareholders may appoint more than one proxy in relation to the Barratt General Meeting provided that each proxy is appointed to exercise the rights attached to different Barratt Shares held by that Barratt Shareholder. The appointment of a proxy will not prevent a member from subsequently attending, voting and speaking at the Barratt General Meeting, in which case any votes of the proxy will not be counted.

You will find enclosed a Form of Proxy for the Barratt General Meeting. Whether or not you intend to attend the Barratt General Meeting, please complete and sign the Form of Proxy and return it to Equiniti at Aspect House, Spencer Road, Lancing, West Sussex, BN99 6DA as soon as possible, but, in any event, so as to be received no later than 10.00 a.m. on 13 May 2024. This will enable your vote(s) to be counted at the Barratt General Meeting in the event of your absence. If the Form of Proxy is not returned by 10.00 a.m. on 13 May 2024, it will be invalid.

Alternatively, you may wish to register your proxy vote online; to do so, visit www.sharevote.co.uk where details of the procedure are shown. The Voting ID, Task ID and Shareholder Reference Number shown on the Form of Proxy will be required to complete the procedure. Details of the process for registering online are also set out in the Form of Proxy. The deadline for receipt of electronic proxies is 10.00 a.m. on 13 May 2024.

If you hold your Barratt Shares in CREST, you may appoint a proxy by completing and transmitting a CREST Proxy Instruction form so that it is received by Equiniti (under CREST participant ID RA19) by

4

no later than 10.00 a.m. on 13 May 2024. The time of receipt will be taken to be the time from which Equiniti is able to retrieve the message by enquiry to CREST in the manner prescribed by CREST.

Institutional investors may be able to appoint a proxy electronically via the Proxymity platform. Further information regarding Proxymity can be found on www.proxymity.io. Proxies must be lodged by 10.00 a.m. on 13 May 2024.
