PLACING OF 350 MILLION ORDINARY SHARES IN WORLDPAY GROUP PLC (THE "COMPANY") BY SHIP GLOBAL 2 & CY S.C.A.

7th September 2016

Further to the announcement released on 6th September 2016 in relation to a proposed placing of approximately 300 million ordinary shares in the Company (the "Placing"), Ship Global 2 & Cy S.C.A ("Ship Global 2"), a company jointly owned by funds managed by Advent International Corporation (the "Advent Funds") and by Bain Capital LLC (the "Bain Capital Funds"), announces that due to strong investor demand it has decided to increase the size of the Placing.

Accordingly pursuant to the Placing, Ship Global 2 has sold an aggregate of 350 million ordinary shares in the capital of the Company at a price of 282 pence per share raising aggregate gross sale proceeds of approximately £987 million. Following completion of the Placing, Ship Global 2 will hold 214,481,879 ordinary shares in the capital of the Company, representing approximately 10.7% of the Company's issued ordinary shares. Any of the Company's ordinary shares held by Ship Global 2 which are not sold in the Placing will be subject to a 90-day lock-up (subject to waiver by the Joint Bookrunners, customary exceptions and certain of the exceptions set out in the prospectus relating to the initial public offering of ordinary shares in the Company).

In accordance with its Relationship Agreement with the Company, Ship Global 2 will cease to be entitled to appoint directors to the board of the Company (the "Board") on completion of the sale of the Placing Shares. Accordingly, subject to completion of the sale of the Placing Shares, the Advent Funds' representative, James Brocklebank (Non-Executive Director) and the Bain Capital Funds' representative Robin Marshall (Non-Executive Director) will be stepping down from the Board.

The proceeds of the Placing are payable in cash on usual settlement terms, and closing of the Placing is expected to occur on 9th September 2016, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain customary conditions.

Barclays Bank PLC ("Barclays"), Goldman Sachs International ("Goldman Sachs"), Merrill Lynch International ("BofAML") & Morgan Stanley & Co. International plc ("Morgan Stanley") are acting as joint bookrunners in connection with the Placing (together, the "Joint Bookrunners"). Lazard & Co., Limited ("Lazard") is acting as financial adviser to Ship Global 2 in connection with the Placing.

The Company will not receive any proceeds from the Placing. A portion of the proceeds of the Offering will be used to repay certain indebtedness to the Joint Bookrunners.
