SIR IAN CHESHIRE TO STEP DOWN FROM BT GROUP BOARD

BT Group plc ("BT Group") today announced that given his increase in non-executive responsibilities as Chair of Land Securities Group plc, Sir Ian Cheshire has decided to step down from the Board as a non-executive director at the conclusion of the 2023 Annual General Meeting ("AGM"). He will therefore not be put forward for re-election at the AGM in July, having served on the Board since March 2020.

Adam Crozier, BT Group's Chairman, said "On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank Ian for his contribution during his time at BT Group. He has been a distinguished member of the Board and its Audit and Risk and Nominations Committees, and as Chair of our Remuneration Committee".

In line with ongoing succession planning of the Board, we are currently undertaking a search for additional non-executive directors with the support of an external search consultant.
