PROPOSED SECONDARY OFFERING OF ORDINARY SHARES IN HALEON PLC BY PFIZER INC.

30 September 2024: Pfizer Inc. ("Pfizer") today announces that it intends to sell approximately 540 million ordinary shares ("Ordinary Shares") in Haleon plc ("Haleon"), representing approximately 5.9% of Haleon's issued share capital (the "Offering", and such Ordinary Shares in the Offering, the "Sale Shares"). This announcement is not and does not constitute an offer to sell and there will be no public offering of the Sale Shares in any jurisdiction. There will be no sale of any Ordinary Shares in the form of American depositary shares in Haleon.

The price per Sale Share will be determined by way of an accelerated bookbuilding process to institutional investors. The bookbuilding period will commence immediately following this announcement and may close at any time on short notice. The completion of the bookbuilding process and the results of the Offering, including the number of Sale Shares to be sold and the price per Sale Share, will be announced as soon as practicable thereafter.

Pfizer will receive all of the net proceeds from the Offering, subject to customary closing conditions. No Ordinary Shares are being sold or issued by Haleon in the Offering, and Haleon will not receive any of the net proceeds from the Offering.

Haleon and Pfizer previously entered into a share purchase deed, which was approved by Haleon's shareholders at its Annual General Meeting on 8 May 2024 (the "Share Purchase Deed"), pursuant to which Haleon has the ability to make certain off-market purchases of Ordinary Shares from Pfizer, subject to certain terms and conditions. In connection with the Offering and subject to satisfaction of the conditions set out in the Share Purchase Deed, including the successful completion of the Offering, Haleon has agreed to carry out an off-market purchase from Pfizer, and Pfizer has agreed to sell to Haleon, Ordinary Shares having an aggregate purchase price of approximately £230 million (approximately $308 million) in an off-market transaction that will close at the same time as, or as soon as reasonably practicable following, the settlement of the Offering (the "Share Buyback"). The purchase price per Ordinary Share to be paid by Haleon in the Share Buyback will be equal to the offering price per Sale Share in the Offering.

Completion of the Offering and the Share Buyback is expected to reduce Pfizer's interest in Haleon from approximately 22.6% to approximately 16.2% of Haleon's issued share capital (excluding any shares held in treasury).

BofA Securities and Goldman Sachs International are acting as joint global coordinators and joint bookrunners (the "Joint Global Coordinators"), Deutsche Numis, HSBC and RBC Capital Markets are acting as joint bookrunners (the "Joint Bookrunners") and Barclays, BNP PARIBAS, Mizuho, PNC Capital Markets LLC and Siebert Williams Shank are acting as co-managers (the "Co-Managers", and together with the Joint Global Coordinators and the Joint Bookrunners, the "Managers") for the Offering.

Pfizer has undertaken to the Managers not to transfer or dispose of any of its remaining equity securities in Haleon for 60 days from the date of settlement of the Offering, subject to certain exceptions and waiver by the Joint Global Coordinators.
