 11. Additional information (xvi) 
 
   In reference to Section 9, the shares detailed are managed by the named 
   discretionary investment management entity within multiple portfolios 
   on behalf of underlying clients, based on investment management agreements 
   whereby the client has delegated the exercise of the voting power to 
   the referenced investment manager. 
 
   This disclosure reflects the fact that the voting rights effectively 
   held indirectly by the underlying intermediate holding company Standard 
   Life Investments (Holdings) Limited ("SLIHL") decreased below the 13% 
   notifiable threshold due to trading on 4 August 2020. Prior to this crossing, 
   SLIHL effectively held 13.02% of the delegated voting rights in Kier 
   Group plc. SLIHL now effectively holds 12.99% of the delegated voting 
   rights.
