Director Shareholding

Fuller,Smith&Turner PLC
03 July 2003

Fuller, Smith & Turner P.L.C. ("Fuller's" or the "Company")

Long Term Investment Plan ("LTIP")

Directors' interests in ordinary shares of the Company



Fuller's granted awards to directors and employees under its LTIP in June 2000.
These awards included both listed "A" ordinary shares of £1.00 each and unquoted
"B" ordinary shares of 10p each. On 25 June 2003, the Company's Remuneration
Committee determined that in accordance with the parameters of the Plan 15 per
cent of the initial awards would be vested in those employees entitled.

Under the rules of the LTIP the shares allocated to directors and employees vest
today, 3 July 2003. To facilitate the financing of the resultant tax and
National Insurance liabilities, each allottee has sold in the market a
proportion of the "A" ordinary shares so awarded today at 520p per "A" ordinary
share. In accordance with the terms of the LTIP, where the resultant shares have
been re-deposited with the LTIP a further matching award has been granted.

The table below sets out the entitlements of the following directors of the
Company, as a consequence of today's vest, match and sale.
