Further support for the proposed sale of Fraedom

On 9 February 2018 Hogg Robinson Group plc ("Hogg Robinson" or the "Company") announced that it had entered into a conditional agreement with Visa with respect to the sale of Fraedom. The Fraedom Sale constitutes a Class 1 transaction for the Company under the Listing Rules and completion of the Fraedom Sale is therefore conditional on Shareholder approval.

The Company announces that it has since received an irrevocable undertaking from Teleios Capital Partners LLC ("Teleios") to vote in favour of the resolution to be proposed at the General Meeting of the Company to approve the Fraedom Sale, in respect of 43,376,855 Ordinary Shares, representing approximately 13.24 per cent. of the issued ordinary share capital of Hogg Robinson as at 13 February 2018 (being the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this announcement).

As such, the Company has received irrevocable undertakings from Shareholders (including Directors) holding, in aggregate, 197,190,378 Ordinary Shares, amounting to 60.19 per cent. of the total issued share capital of the Company to vote in favour of the resolution to be proposed at the General Meeting of the Company to approve the Fraedom Sale.

Unless otherwise defined, all capitalised terms in this announcement shall have the meaning given to them in the announcement in relation to the Fraedom Sale released by the Company on 9 February 2018.
