LLOYDS BANKING GROUP PLC (THE "GROUP") - DIVIDEND ON ORDINARY SHARES OF THE GROUP ("SHARES")
 
As announced earlier today, the Group is recommending to shareholders, at the annual general meeting to be held on 14 May 2015, that a dividend of 0.75 pence per Share be declared for the full year ended 31 December 2014. The proposed dividend is to be paid on 19 May 2015 to shareholders on the register at the close of business on 7 April 2015. The ex-dividend date will be 2 April 2015.
 
The Group will be offering a share alternative in the form of a dividend re-investment plan ("DRIP") for those shareholders who wish to elect to use their dividend payments to purchase additional Shares in the Group, rather than receive a cash payment. The last date for shareholders to elect to participate in the DRIP will be 21 April 2015 and shareholders will be credited with the additional DRIP Shares by 28 May 2015. Further details regarding the DRIP will be provided with the annual general meeting mailing on or around 27 March 2015.
