<font style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 13px">In
connection with the provisions of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995 (the &#x201C;Reform Act&#x201D;), WPP plc and its
subsidiaries (the &#x201C;Company&#x201D;) may include
forward-looking statements (as defined in the Reform Act) in oral
or written public statements issued by or on behalf of the Company.
These forward-looking statements may include, among other things,
plans, objectives, projections and anticipated future economic
performance based on assumptions and the like that are subject to
risks and uncertainties. As such, actual results or outcomes may
differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking
statements. Important factors that may cause actual results to
differ include but are not limited to: the unanticipated loss of a
material client or key personnel, delays or reductions in client
advertising budgets, shifts in industry rates of compensation,
regulatory compliance costs or litigation, natural disasters or
acts of terrorism, the Company&#x2019;s exposure to changes in the
values of major currencies other than the UK pound sterling
(because a substantial portion of its revenues are derived and
costs incurred outside of the United Kingdom) and the overall level
of economic activity in the Company&#x2019;s major markets (which
varies depending on, among other things, regional, national and
international political and economic conditions and government
regulations in the world&#x2019;s advertising markets). In addition,
you should consider the risks described in Item 3D, captioned
&#x201C;Risk Factors&#x201D; in the Company&#x2019;s Form 20-F for the
year ended 31 December 2019, which could also cause actual results
to differ from forward-looking information. In light of these and
other uncertainties, the forward-looking statements included in the
oral or written public statements should not be regarded as a
representation by the Company that the Company&#x2019;s plans and
objectives will be achieved.</font></div>

<div style="text-align: left"><font style="color: #000000; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 13px">WPP
today announces that it has acquired Satalia, a technology company
offering market-leading AI solutions for clients.</font></div>
<div style="text-align: left"><font style="color: #000000; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 13px">&#xA0;</font></div>
<div style="text-align: left"><font style="color: #000000; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 13px">Satalia
is a global leader in enterprise AI and one of the UK's
fastest-growing tech companies, whose clients include BT, DFS, DS
Smith, PwC, Gigaclear, Tesco and Unilever. Combining machine
learning and optimisation, it builds technologies that helps
clients transform their business strategies and radically improve
operational efficiency. The company was founded by CEO Dr Daniel
Hulme in 2008. Daniel is a globally recognised expert in AI, a
regular TEDx and Google speaker, and a Kauffman Global Scholar. He
has over 20 years of experience in AI, having received his Masters
and PhD in AI from UCL where he is currently Entrepreneur in
Residence. He is also a lecturer for LSE's Marshall Institute and
holds advisory positions in both the private and public
sectors.</font></div>

<div style="text-align: left"><font style="color: #000000; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 13px">Alongside
its services in custom-made AI solutions and AI strategy
consultancy, the company has built many AI assets, including two
products: Satalia Workforce and Satalia Delivery. Satalia Workforce
dynamically automates and optimises the allocation of people to
their work, and has been adopted by global accountancy and
consultancy firms, including PwC. Satalia Delivery is a leading
home-delivery solution, which optimises the routes and schedules of
vehicle fleets every time a new order is made, and is used by
companies including DFS, HSS, Selecta and Woolworths, the
Australian supermarket chain.&#xA0;Satalia has deep expertise in
applying AI throughout logistics and the supply chain, previously
helping the development of Tesco's last-mile delivery
solution.&#xA0;</font></div>

<div style="text-align: left"><font style="color: #000000; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 13px">Satalia,
which employs more than 80 people across multiple markets in
Europe, will join Wunderman Thompson Commerce and strengthen the
global ecommerce consultancy's technology proposition. It will also
act as a hub of AI expertise for all WPP agencies. In addition to
his role as CEO of Satalia, Daniel will become Chief AI Officer of
WPP, working closely with WPP's Chief Technology Officer and WPP
agencies to promote AI capabilities across the company and help
shape WPP's AI strategy, including R&amp;D, AI ethics,
partnerships, talent and products.</font></div>
