Molin PLC announces that, to retain the flexibility to make purchases of its own
ordinary shares of 25p, the Directors have decided to seek further shareholder
authority at an extraordinary general meeting to be held on Wednesday 20
December 2000 to make purchases of up to a maximum of 3,183,541 of the Company's
ordinary shares of 25p each (representing approximately 15% of the current
issued ordinary share capital). The notice convening the Extraordinary General
Meeting will be posted to shareholders on 24 November 2000.
To date the Directors have been granted five separate authorities to purchase
and cancel a total of 20,270,451 ordinary shares of 25p each and pursuant to
those authorities the Company has purchased 14,352,070 shares. Each authority
is revoked by the next authority approved by the Company's shareholders. The
current authority was granted at an extraordinary general meeting held on 27
October 2000 when the Directors were authorised to purchase and cancel 3,787,842
ordinary shares of 25p each (approximately 15% of the then issued ordinary share
capital). Pursuant to that authority the Company has purchased 3,100,000
shares.
