AstraZeneca PLC (the Company) announced that on 29 July 2022 awards

Each ADS represents one half of an Ordinary Share of $0.25 in the
Company.
In accordance with the Agreement and Plan of Merger between the
Company and Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Alexion), Dr Sarin's
in-flight share awards granted by Alexion were converted to awards
over AstraZeneca ADSs under the AstraZeneca Global Restricted Stock
Plan at the time of closing of the Alexion acquisition. The awards
that vested on 29 July 2022 replaced in-flight Alexion awards
originally granted to Dr Sarin between February 2019 and February
2021 under the Alexion 2017 Incentive Plan.
Following the withholding of shares to satisfy certain tax
obligations arising on vesting, 67,523 ADSs vested.
For tax purposes, the fair market value of an ADS at vest of the
awards was US$66.72, being the closing price on the last trading
day preceding the vesting.
