Wholesaling Arrangements
Trinity Mirror plc ('the Group') notes the announcement today from Dawson Holdings plc which has entered into a standstill agreement with its major publishing creditors. Whilst the overall financial implications of this arrangement are uncertain, we currently have balances totalling some £7 million due to the Group. The Group anticipates that it will treat any resulting loss as a non-recurring exceptional item. As part of the standstill agreement the Group has agreed that for the time being current wholesale agreements with Surridge Dawson Ltd will remain in place although the Group will continue to examine alternative arrangements should they prove necessary.
