2023 H1 Distribution
Determination of currency amounts
Glencore confirms that:
 1.   Subject to approval by shareholders at the 2023 AGM, it will make a return of capital on 1
      June 2023 to holders of record on the Jersey register at the close of business on 5 May
      2023.

 2.   This repayment is of US$0.22 per ordinary share and is to be made in US dollars, although
      shareholders on the Jersey register who have opted for a different currency by 9 May 2023
      will receive their distribution payments in either Pounds Sterling, Euros or Swiss Francs.
      Elections will remain in place until revoked by the shareholder.
 3.   The Pound Sterling, Euro and Swiss Franc amounts payable are determined by reference
      to the closing mid exchange rates applicable to the US dollar on 12 May 2023.

The following rates were published in the Financial Times guide to world currencies today:
 GBP/USD              EUR/USD                USD/CHF
 1.2471               1.0862                 0.8969

Accordingly, for non-US dollar payments the amount payable per share on 1 June 2023 will be
approximately:
 Pounds Sterling      Euros                  Swiss Francs
 0.176409             0.202541               0.197318

An announcement was made in South Africa on 28 April 2023 regarding the determination of the
South African Rand amount payable in respect of shares on the Johannesburg register.
The distributions for 2023 may be deemed “qualified dividends” for US Federal income tax
purposes (subject to certain holding period requirements). Distributions paid by the Company
may constitute “qualified dividends” because the Company is a “qualified foreign corporation” for
US Federal income tax purposes.
