She currently serves as a Nonexecutive Director at Motorpoint Group plc, the UK's leading independent omnichannel vehicle retailer, and Albion Technology & General plc ("AATG''), a UKlisted venture capital trust that invests in unquoted growth and technology businesses.

Prior to this, Swarupa was at Duke Street, a midmarket private equity firm, where she managed portfolio companies through growth strategies, acquisitions and complex exits. Swarupa started her career at Deloitte, where she qualified as a Chartered Accountant, before joining the investment banking team at Merrill Lynch.

Separately, Non-executive Director, Matthew Wood has notified the Company that he intends to step down from his position, at the conclusion of the Company's forthcoming 2026 AGM.

Steve Carson, Non-Executive Chair of Roadside, commented:

 "We are delighted to welcome Swarupa to the Board as a Non-executive Director. She brings a strong financial background alongside valuable experience of different public and private markets at different stages of growth. Her breadth of knowledge and perspective will be highly complementary to the existing Board, and we believe her insight and experience will be critical to our journey as we continue to execute our strategy.

On behalf of myself and the Board, I would like to take this opportunity to thank Matt Wood for his contribution and support over the past six years and wish him well in his future endeavours."

 Swarupa Pathakji commented:

"I am excited to join the Board of Roadside at such a pivotal time. The management's vision for building a scalable energy forecourt business is ambitious and exciting.
