Dear Sir / Madam,

This is with reference to section 96 of the Securities Act 2015 and Clause 5.6.1(a) of PSX Limited Regulations. The Company hereby conveys the following material information:

Please be notified that GlaxoSmithKline Consumer Healthcare Pakistan Limited, member of the Haleon Group ("Company") has lifted the event of force majeure declared on 21 October 2022 for the captioned range of products.

We appreciate the efforts of the Federal Government to revise the prices of Panadol Tablets, Panadol Extra Tablets and Children's Panadol Liquid Range, which will help the Company to continue to produce everyday healthcare products without gross losses. We are specifically grateful to the Prime Minister, Finance Minister, SAPM for Finance, Health Minister, Health Secretary, CEO DRAP and all other stakeholders in this regard.

Although the price revisions granted do not fully mirror the sharp increase in the raw material prices of Paracetamol, we have resumed production in the larger interest of consumers and patients in Pakistan. We look forward to further discussions and engagement with the Federal Government, in due course, to discuss our long-term strategy to provide better everyday health with humanity, and based on trusted science.
