Result of EGM

Chamberlin & Hill PLC 23 October 2006 CHAMBERLIN & HILL PLC 23 October 2006 Chamberlin & Hill plc (the 'Company') Result of Extraordinary General Meeting At the Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company, which took place earlier today, the resolution proposed to shareholders to approve the Company's proposed de-listing from the Official List of the UK Listing Authority and the cancellation of the Company's ordinary shares to trading on the London Stock Exchange's market for listed securities, as announced on 20 September 2006, was duly passed. Accordingly, notice is hereby given that the final day of dealings on the Official List of the UK Listing Authority is expected to be 22 November 2006 and the first day of trading on AIM is expected to be 23 November 2006. At today's Extraordinary General Meeting, Tom Brown, Chairman of Chamberlin & Hill plc, provided the following trading update: At the Company's annual general meeting in July this year, the Company warned shareholders that cost increases suffered in recent months would mean a lower first half year result than in the previous year. Since then increased costs of energy and raw materials have continued to put pressure on foundry margins and demand for heavy castings has not recovered as expected. The operating performance of both foundry businesses has also been adversely affected by the previously announced restructuring programmes, while central costs have been temporarily inflated by recruitment to strengthen both operational and group management. These factors have combined to reduce the first half year results further. Although adjustments to selling prices and other actions are expected to deliver improvements in the second half of the year, the directors now anticipate that the full year results will fall short of the level achieved in the last two years. The directors believe that the trend of the second half will continue into the next financial year, when an improved performance is anticipated.
