Fourth Consent Requests

Prior to making the first payment scheduled under the Payment Plan, TWUL and its subsidiary, Thames Water Super Senior Issuer PLC (the "Super Senior Issuer"), have today launched a fourth set of consent requests (the "Fourth Consent Requests") seeking the consent of the super senior creditors to designate the Payment Plan as an approved payment plan under the super senior liquidity facility (the "Facility") entered into between TWUL and the Super Senior Issuer.

The Fourth Consent Requests have a voting date of 19 September 2025 and follow three previous sets of consent requests which were approved by creditors in April, May and July 2025.

TWUL has so far drawn £872m of the initial £1.5bn available under the Facility.

TWUL continues to work closely with stakeholders to secure a market led solution.
