Posting of Circular

Holidaybreak PLC 25 May 2007 25 May 2007 Holidaybreak plc Posting of Circular, Expected Timetable Further to the announcement on 18 May 2007, Holidaybreak plc announces that the Circular, in relation to the proposed acquisition by PGL Holdings of PGL and containing a notice convening an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders (the "EGM") to approve the resolution necessary in connection with the acquisition, has been posted to shareholders today. Copies of the Circular have been submitted to the UK Listing Authority, and will shortly be available for inspection at the UK Listing Authority's Document Viewing Facility, which is situated at: Financial Services Authority, 25, The North Colonnade, Canary Wharf, London, E14 5HS Terms used in this announcement shall have the same meaning as those in the Circular. Expected timetable of principal events: Latest time and date for receipt of forms of proxy 10:30 a.m. on 9 June 2007 Extraordinary General Meeting 10:30 a.m. on 11 June 2007 Completion of the Acquisition 12 June 2007 References to times in this announcement are to London time unless otherwise stated. Notes 1. Any member entitled to attend and vote at the EGM is entitled to appoint one or more proxies (who need not be a member of the Company) to attend and, on a poll, to vote instead of him or her. A Form of Proxy for use by members is enclosed with the Circular. In order to be valid, the Form of Proxy and any power of attorney or other authority under which it is signed, or a notarially certified or office copy of such power or authority, or an electronic proxy voting instruction, must reach the Company's registrars, Capita Registrars, Proxy Processing Centre, Telford Road, Bicester, OX26 4LD not less than 48 hours before the time of the Meeting or of any adjournment of the Meeting. 2. Alternatively, a member may register his or her proxy electronically on the Company's registrars' website www.capitaregistrars.com. In order to use this service, shareholders will be required to enter their Investor Code which is printed on the Form of Proxy. Completion and return of the Form of Proxy or registering a proxy electronically will not preclude a member from attending and voting at the Meeting in person, if he or she wishes to do so. 3. CREST members who wish to appoint a proxy or proxies by utilising the CREST electronic proxy appointment service may do so for the Meeting and any adjournment(s) thereof by utilising the procedures described in the CREST manual. CREST personal members who have appointed a voting 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. In order for a proxy appointment or instruction made using the CREST service to be valid, the appropriate CREST message (a ''CREST Proxy Instruction'') must be properly authenticated in accordance with CRESTCo's specifications and must contain the information required for such instructions, as described in the CREST manual. All messages relating to the appointment of a proxy or an amendment to an instruction given to a previously appointed proxy must, in order to be valid, be transmitted to Capita IRG plc (ID RA10) by no later than 48 hours before the time of the meeting or adjournment thereof. For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the timestamp applied to the message by the CREST applications host) from which Capita IRG plc is able to retrieve messages 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. CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers should note that CRESTCo does not make available special procedures in CREST for any particular messages. 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 service 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. In accordance with Regulation 41 of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001 the Company specifies that members who hold shares in uncertificated form must be entered on the Company's Register of Members at 10:30am on 9 June 2007 in order to be entitled to attend and vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting. Such members may only cast votes in respect of the number of shares registered in their name at that time. Changes to the Register of Members after 10:30am on 9 June 2007 will be disregarded in determining the rights of any person to attend and vote at the Meeting.
