To be held at:

The offices of Endava plc, 125 Old Broad Street, London EC2N 1AR, United Kingdom.

On:

Wednesday 16 December 2020, commencing at 2:30 p.m. London time (9:30 a.m. EST).

Impact of COVID-19

In light of the measures currently in place in the United Kingdom in response to the COVID- 19 pandemic and Endava’s commitment to health and safety, it is with regret that we will be unable to hold this year’s annual general meeting (“AGM”) in the usual way. The AGM will be conducted as a closed meeting and shareholders will not be permitted to attend in person. For further details on how COVID-19 will affect our AGM, please refer to the section headed “Impact of COVID-19” in the Chairman’s letter on pages 3 to 4.

How to vote

Endava plc has two classes of ordinary shares: Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares.

Class A ordinary shares are capable of being held in certificated form or dematerialised and held in CREST. Class A ordinary shares may also be represented by American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”). Class B ordinary shares are only capable of being held in certificated form. The rights of the holders of Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares are identical, except with respect to voting, conversion and transfer.

The holders of Class A ordinary shares are entitled to one vote per share and the holders of Class B ordinary shares are entitled to 10 votes per share, in each case on all matters that are subject to shareholder vote.

The directors of the Company (each a “Director” and together, the “Board”) feel that it is appropriate to utilise the provisions under the Corporate Insolvency and Governance Act 2020 that was enacted on 26 June 2020 (the “CIG Act”) such that the AGM is conducted as a closed meeting. Accordingly, we advise that shareholders will not be permitted to attend the AGM in person. The Directors strongly encourage shareholders to vote by appointing the Chairman of the AGM as their proxy by submitting a proxy appointment in accordance with the instructions set out in the notes to the Notice of AGM on pages 17 to 18.

For more information:

Chairman’s letter

Dear Shareholder,

2020 Annual General Meeting of Endava plc

I am pleased to confirm that the 2020 Annual General Meeting of Endava plc (the “AGM”) will take place at 2:30 p.m. London time (9:30 a.m. EST) on Wednesday 16 December 2020 at the offices of Endava plc, 125 Old Broad Street, London EC2N 1AR, United Kingdom.

Impact of COVID-19

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the UK Government passed the CIG Act which, amongst other things, provided companies with temporary flexibility with regards to the holding of shareholder meetings. Initially, the provisions under the CIG Act were due to expire on 30 September, but by statutory instrument made on 23 September 2020, such measures will continue to be in full force and effect until 30 December 2020.

The Directors continue to closely monitor the evolving COVID-19 situation and the regulations and guidelines from the UK Government, including in relation to their potential impact on attendance at the AGM. Whilst the Directors value the opportunity to meet and engage with shareholders in person, it is currently anticipated that indoor gatherings will be prohibited or restricted at the time of the AGM and for these reasons, at this time, the Directors feel that it is appropriate to utilise the provisions under the CIG Act such that the AGM will be conducted as a closed meeting and we respectfully ask that all shareholders submit proxy votes in accordance with the instructions contained in this notice. Any updates on the arrangements for the AGM will be made available at https://investors.endava.com/financials-and-filings/AGM/ and shareholders are encouraged to monitor the website for any changes.

Accordingly, we advise that shareholders will not be permitted to attend the AGM in person. In addition, the Directors strongly encourage shareholders to vote by appointing the Chairman of the AGM as their proxy by submitting a proxy appointment in accordance with the instructions set out in the notes to the Notice of AGM on pages 17 to 18. The results of the AGM will be announced as soon as practicable following the AGM.

Despite these exceptional circumstances, the Directors are keen to maintain engagement with shareholders. To facilitate this, shareholders are invited to submit questions electronically in advance of the meeting – please see Note 11 to the formal notice of AGM for more details.

Business of the AGM

The business we will discuss at the AGM is made up of resolutions that are regularly brought to shareholders. Full details of the financial year in review are set out in the Company’s annual accounts for the financial year ended 30 June 2020 and the associated reports of the Directors and auditors (the “2020 Annual Report and Accounts”) and also in the Company’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 20-F, which can be found at https://investors.endava.com/financials-and-filings/AGM/.

The formal notice of AGM and the resolutions to be proposed at the AGM are set out on pages 5 to 6 of this document. The following is a brief summary of the items of business:

Chairman’s letter cont’d

•Resolution 1 relates to the receipt and adoption of the 2020 Annual Report and Accounts.

•Resolution 2 relates to the approval of the Directors’ remuneration report which is set out in the 2020 Annual Report and Accounts.

•Resolution 3 relates to the re-appointment of the auditors and authorises the Directors to fix their remuneration.

•Resolutions 4 to 10 relate to the re-election of Directors in accordance with the Company’s articles of association (the “Articles”).

Mike Kinton will be retiring as a director at the AGM. Mike has been instrumental in Endava’s development and growth since its founding days. He aimed to create a business offering high quality jobs with world class technical training for software engineers in the countries in which Endava operated delivery centres, fostering and bolstering the technology industry in those countries. This remains a key part of Endava’s vision today.

Mike has been a member of the Endava Board since 2006 and served as Chairman of the Board from 2006 until 2016. He previously served on the Audit Committee and has served on the Nominations Committee and as Chairman of the Remuneration Committee since our initial public offering in 2018. The Board and the whole of Endava thank Mike for his many years of invaluable and dedicated service.

Recommendation

The formal notice of AGM is set out on pages 5 to 6 of this notice and an explanation of each of the resolutions to be considered at the AGM may be found on pages 7 to 9 of this notice. Your Directors consider that all of the resolutions that are being proposed to the AGM are in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole and are most likely to promote the success of the Company.

Accordingly, your Directors unanimously recommend that you vote in favour of the resolutions as each of the Directors with personal holdings of shares in the Company intends to do in respect of their own beneficial holdings, which amount to 49% in aggregate of the voting rights as at 9 November 2020, being the last practicable date before publication of this notice.

Your votes do matter. Further information about how to vote is given on pages 10 to 14 of this notice.

I intend to serve as Chairman of the AGM. If I am appointed as proxy, I will, of course, vote in accordance with any instructions given to me. If I am given discretion as to how to vote, I will vote in favour of each of the resolutions to be proposed at the AGM.

Thank you for your ongoing support of Endava.

Yours faithfully,

Trevor Smith

Notes to resolutions

Notes to resolution 1

Report and accounts

The Companies Act 2006 requires the directors of a public company to lay before the company in general meeting copies of the directors’ reports, the independent auditors’ report and the audited financial statements of the company in respect of each financial year. For the Company’s financial year ended 30 June 2020, these are all contained in the 2020 Annual Report and Accounts.

In accordance with best practice, the Company proposes an ordinary resolution to receive and adopt the 2020 Annual Report and Accounts, a copy of which may be found at: https://investors.endava.com/financials-and-filings/AGM/.

Notes to resolution 2

Directors’ remuneration report

Resolution 2 seeks shareholder approval for the Annual Statement by the Chairman of the Remuneration Committee and Annual Report on Remuneration which can be found on pages 35-55 (inclusive) of the 2020 Annual Report and Accounts. The Directors’ report on remuneration sets out details of each Director’s remuneration during the financial year ended 30 June 2020. In accordance with the relevant regulations, the resolution is an advisory vote and does not affect the remuneration already paid to any Director.

Notes to resolution 3

Reappointment of auditors and determination of auditors’ remuneration

Resolution 3 seeks shareholder approval for the reappointment of KPMG LLP as the Company’s auditors until the conclusion of the next AGM. This resolution also seeks authority to give the Directors the power to set the remuneration of the Company’s auditors.

The Directors recommend KPMG LLP’s reappointment and seek authority to fix their remuneration.

Notes to resolutions 4 to 10

Re-election of Directors

All of the Directors are required by the Articles of Association to retire and offer themselves for re-election at each AGM. In accordance with this requirement Mr. J. Cotterell, Mr. M. Thurston, Mr. A. Allan, Mr. B. Druskin, Mr. D. Pattillo, Ms. S. Connal and Mr. T. Smith retire and offer themselves for re-election as Directors. Mr. M. Kinton has decided not to seek re- election at the AGM and therefore will retire as a non-executive director of the Company at the conclusion of the AGM.

The Nomination Committee of the Board (the “Nomination Committee”) identifies, evaluates and recommends to the Board candidates for appointment or reappointment as Directors and for appointment as company secretary.

The Nomination Committee regularly reviews the diversity, mix of skills, experience and knowledge of the Board and seeks to ensure an orderly succession of Directors. The outside directorships and broader commitments of the non-executive Directors (including time commitments) are also monitored by the Nomination Committee. The Nomination Committee’s reasons for the re-election of Directors are set out with the biography of each Director, as are descriptions of the Directors’ skills, experience and the committees upon which they serve.

Notes to resolutions cont’d

In respect of each of the non-executive Directors, the Board has fully considered whether each Director is free from any relationship that could materially interfere with the exercise of his or her independent judgement. The Board has determined that each of these non-executive directors is considered to be independent.

All Directors so standing are recommended by the Board for re-election.

The holders of ADSs are entitled to one vote per ADS on all matters that are subject to shareholder vote.

Consequently, Mr. Cotterell will continue to be able to have a significant influence on corporate matters submitted to a vote of shareholders.

Information rights

Under the Companies Act 2006, there are a number of rights that may now be available to indirect investors of the Company, including the right to be nominated by the registered holder to receive general shareholder communications direct from the Company.

The rights of indirect investors who have been nominated to receive communications from the Company in accordance with section 146 of the Companies Act 2006 (“nominated persons”) do not include the right to appoint a proxy. However, nominated persons may have a right under an agreement with the registered shareholder who holds the shares on their behalf to be appointed (or to have someone else appointed) as a proxy.

Alternatively, if nominated persons do not have such a right or do not wish to exercise it, they may have a right under such an agreement to give instructions to the person holding the shares as to the exercise of voting rights.

If you have been so nominated to receive general shareholder communications directly from the Company, it is important to remember that your main contact in terms of your investment remains with the registered shareholder or custodian or broker, or whoever administers the investment on your behalf. You should also deal with them in relation to any rights that you may have under agreements with them to be appointed as a proxy and to vote at the AGM, as described above.

Any changes or queries relating to your personal details and holding (including any administration thereof) must continue to be directed to your existing contact at your investment manager or custodian. The Company cannot guarantee dealing with matters that are directed to us in error. The only exception to this is where the Company is exercising one of its powers under the Companies Act 2006 and writes to you directly for a response.

Statements related to the audit

Members satisfying the thresholds in section 527 of the Companies Act 2006 can require the Company to publish a statement on its website setting out any matter relating to:

•the audit of the Company’s accounts (including the auditor’s report and the conduct of the audit) that are to be laid before the AGM; and

•any circumstances connected with an auditor of the Company ceasing to hold office since the last AGM, that the members propose to raise at the AGM.

The Company cannot require the members requesting the publication to pay its expenses in connection with the publication. The company must forward a copy of the statement to the auditors when it publishes the statement on the website. The business which may be dealt with at the AGM includes any such statement that the company has been required to publish on its website.

Shareholder requisition rights

Members satisfying the thresholds in section 338 of the Companies Act 2006 can require the Company:

Other information

•to give, to members of the Company entitled to receive notice of the AGM, notice of a resolution which may properly be moved, and which those members intend to move, at the AGM; and

•to include in the business to be dealt with at the AGM any matter (other than a proposed resolution) which may properly be included in the business at the AGM,

provided in each case that the requirements of those sections are met and provided that the request is received by the company not later than six clear weeks before the AGM or if later the time at which notice is given of the AGM.

Total voting rights and share capital

The Company has two classes of ordinary shares: Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares.

Class A ordinary shares are capable of being held in certificated form or dematerialised and held in CREST. Class A ordinary shares may also be represented by ADSs. Class B ordinary shares are only capable of being held in certificated form. The rights of the holders of Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares are identical, except with respect to voting, conversion and transfer.

The holders of ADSs or Class A ordinary shares are entitled to one vote per share and the holders of Class B ordinary shares are entitled to 10 votes per share, in each case on all matters that are subject to shareholder vote.

As at 9 November 2020 (the latest practicable date before the publication of this notice), the issued share capital of the Company was comprised of 34,896,230 Class A ordinary shares and 20,221,115 Class B ordinary shares with a nominal value of £0.02 per share, respectively.

However, note that, in light of the measures currently in place in the United Kingdom in response to the COVID-19 pandemic as noted in the Chairman’s letter under the heading “Impact of COVID-19” on pages 3 to 4, shareholders will not be able to attend the AGM in person and you are strongly encouraged to vote your shares by appointing the Chairman of the AGM as your proxy.

1.You can vote either:

1.1by logging on to www.endava-shares.com and following the instructions;

1.2to the extent that you have not received a proxy, you may request a hard copy form of proxy directly from the registrars, Link Asset Services Limited, on Tel: 0871 664 0300 or +44 371 664 0300 (outside the UK). Calls cost 12p per minute plus your phone company’s access charge. Calls outside the United Kingdom will be charged at the applicable international rate. Lines are open between 9:00 a.m. – 5:30 p.m. London time, Monday to Friday, excluding public holidays in England and Wales; or

1.3in the case of CREST members, by utilising the CREST electronic proxy appointment service in accordance with the procedures set out below.

2.A form of proxy has been provided for use by members. To be valid it should be completed, signed and delivered (together with the power of attorney or other authority (if any) under which it is signed, or a notarially certified copy of such power or authority) to the Company’s registrars, Link Asset Services Limited, The Registry, 34 Beckenham Road, Beckenham, Kent BR3 4TU, United Kingdom, not later than 48 hours (not including non-business days) before the time appointed for holding the AGM (i.e., 2:30 p.m. London time on Monday 14 December 2020) or any adjourned AGM or, in the case of a poll taken more than 48 hours after it is demanded, not less than 24 hours before the time appointed for the taking of the poll.

3.If you return more than one proxy appointment, either by paper or electronic communication, the appointment received last by the Registrar before the latest time for the receipt of proxies will take precedence. You are advised to read the terms and conditions of use carefully. Electronic communication facilities are open to all shareholders and those who use them will not be disadvantaged.

4.In the case of a corporation, the form of proxy must be executed under its common seal or signed on its behalf by an attorney or a duly authorised officer of the corporation. A corporation which is a member can appoint one or more corporate representatives who may exercise on its behalf all its powers as a member provided that they do not do so in relation to the same shares. Note that given the COVID-19 pandemic, corporate representatives will not be permitted to attend the AGM.

5.In the case of joint holders, the vote of the senior who tenders a vote whether in person or by proxy will be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of any other joint holders. For these purposes, seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names stand in the Company’s relevant register of members for the certificated or uncertificated shares of the Company (as the case may be) in respect of the joint holding.

6.The return of a completed form of proxy, electronic filing or any CREST Proxy Instruction (as described in note 8 below) will not prevent a shareholder from attending the AGM and voting in person if they wish to do so. Note that given the COVID-19 pandemic, shareholders will not be permitted to attend the AGM.

7.CREST members who wish to appoint a proxy or proxies through the CREST electronic proxy appointment service may do so for the AGM (and any adjournment of the AGM) by using the

Other information

procedures described in the CREST Manual (available from www.euroclear.com/site/public/EUI).

CREST Personal Members or other CREST sponsored members, and those CREST members who have appointed a service provider(s), should refer to their CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s), who will be able to take the appropriate action on their behalf.

8.In order for a proxy appointment or instruction made by means of CREST to be valid, the appropriate CREST message (a “CREST Proxy Instruction”) must be properly authenticated in accordance with Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited’s specifications and must contain the information required for such instructions, as described in the CREST Manual. The message must be transmitted so as to be received by the issuer’s agent (ID RA10) by 2:30 p.m. London time on Monday 14 December 2020. For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to mean the time (as determined by the timestamp applied to the message by the CREST application host) from which the issuer’s agent is able to retrieve the message by enquiry to CREST in the manner prescribed by CREST. After this time, any change of instructions to proxies appointed through CREST should be communicated to the appointee through other means.

9.CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers should note that Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited does not make available special procedures in CREST for any particular message. Normal system timings and limitations will, therefore, apply in relation to the input of CREST Proxy Instructions. It is the responsibility of the CREST member concerned to take (or, if the CREST member is a CREST personal member, or sponsored member, or has appointed a voting service provider(s), to procure that his CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s) take(s)) such action as shall be necessary to ensure that a message is transmitted by means of the CREST system by any particular time. In this connection, CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting system providers are referred, in particular, to those sections of the CREST Manual concerning practical limitations of the CREST system and timings. The Company may treat as invalid a CREST Proxy Instruction in the circumstances set out in Regulation 35(5)(a) of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001.

10.Under Section 527 of the Companies Act 2006, shareholders meeting the threshold requirements set out in that section have the right to require the Company to publish on a website a statement setting out any matter relating to: (i) the audit of the Company’s financial statements (including the Auditor’s Report and the conduct of the audit) that are to be laid before the AGM; or (ii) any circumstances connected with an auditor of the Company ceasing to hold office since the previous meeting at which annual financial statements and reports were laid in accordance with Section 437 of the Companies Act 2006 (in each case) that the shareholders propose to raise at the relevant meeting. The Company may not require the shareholders requesting any such website publication to pay its expenses in complying with sections 527 or 528 of the Companies Act 2006. Where the Company is required to place a statement on a website under section 527 of the Companies Act 2006, it must forward the statement to the Company’s auditor not later than the time when it makes the statement available on the website. The business which may be dealt with at the AGM for the relevant financial year includes any statement that the Company has been required under section 527 of the Companies Act 2006 to publish on a website.

11.Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, questions should be submitted by shareholders prior to the AGM, via electronic mail to the Endava Company Secretariat team at Endava.co.sec@endava.com. Replies to these questions will, where appropriate, be posted on the Company’s website as soon as practicable following the conclusion of the AGM.

12.Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company is unable to make available for inspection any of the following documents in the usual course prior to and at the AGM:

12.1the executive directors’ service contracts; and

12.2letters of appointment of the non-executive directors.

13You may not use any electronic address (within the meaning of section 333(4) of the Companies Act 2006) provided in either this notice or any related documents (including the form of proxy) to communicate with the Company for any purposes other than those expressly stated.

Concert Party information

The persons whose names are listed in the below table (the “Concert Party”), are considered to be acting in concert with each other in relation to the Company for the purposes of the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers (the “Takeover Code”) as at the date of this notice.

As at 9 November 2020 (the latest practicable date before the publication of this notice), the members of the Concert Party held in aggregate, 818,087 Class A ordinary shares and 18,784,413 Class B ordinary shares, representing approximately 79.6% of voting rights in Endava.

As the Concert Party held more than 50.0% of the voting share capital of Endava as of 9 November 2020 (the latest practicable date before the publication of this notice), and assuming that no other acquisitions or dispositions of Endava ordinary shares by any member of the Concert Party have taken place between 9 November 2020 (the latest practicable date before the publication of this notice) and Wednesday 16 December 2020 (the date of the AGM), members of the Concert Party would be able, subject to note 4 on Rule 9.1 of the Takeover Code, to acquire further interests in shares in the capital of Endava without incurring any obligation under Rule 9 of the Takeover Code to make a general offer.

The respective interests in the Company of the Concert Party members as of 9 November 2020 (the latest practicable date before the publication of this notice) were as follows:

As of 9 November 2020 (the latest practicable date before the publication of this notice), John Cotterell, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, beneficially held shares representing approximately 40.1% of the voting rights of the outstanding share capital of the Company. Accordingly, except with the consent of the Takeover Panel, Mr. Cotterell will not be able to acquire further or additional interests in shares that increase the percentage of shares carrying voting rights in which he is interested without being required to make a mandatory offer to all holders of any class of existing share capital or other class of securities carrying voting rights in the Company to acquire the balance of all such interests in the Company. In addition, in the event that other holders of Class B Ordinary Shares sell or transfer their shares to third parties, this may result in Mr. Cotterell’s interest in the Company passively increasing as a percentage of total shares carrying voting rights outstanding. To prevent any requirement on the part of Mr. Cotterell (or any other holder of Class B Ordinary Shares) from being subject to an obligation to make a mandatory offer as a result of an acquisition of any class of Ordinary Shares carrying voting rights or, if applicable, a passive increase in voting rights held, the Company’s articles of association contain certain provisions for an appropriate number of Class B Ordinary Shares held by him to be redesignated as Class A Ordinary Shares so that the relevant percentage of interests in any shares carrying voting rights do not increase and/or trigger the requirement to make a mandatory offering.
