Tate & Lyle PLC
11 August 2000
Tate & Lyle was informed on 10 August 2000 that Archer Daniels Midland Company
('ADM') is now interested in 51,767,173 Ordinary shares in Tate & Lyle PLC,
which is a notifiable interest under Section 199(2)(b) of the Companies Act
1985. This represents 11.31 per cent. of the nominal value of the relevant
share capital and is an increase from ADM's interest announced on 13 November
1997 of 27,517,173 Ordinary shares which was then 6.17 per cent. of the
nominal value of the relevant share capital. However, it is only by virtue of
the pre-existing interest of ADM in Compagnie Industrielle et Financiere des
Produits Amylaces SA ('CIP') that ADM's interest in the Ordinary shares in
Tate & Lyle PLC has increased. Tate & Lyle had announced on 8 August 2000
that CIP and its wholly owned subsidiary Eurostarch SA now hold 24,000,000
Ordinary shares in Tate & Lyle PLC which is a notifiable interest under
Section 199(2) (b) of the Companies Act 1985, being 5.25 per cent. of the
nominal value of the relevant share capital. ADM's notification of its
interest in 51,767,173 Tate & Lyle shares is a combined result of CIP's
interest in Tate & Lyle shares and ADM's pre-existing interests in 6.17 per
cent. of Tate & Lyle shares and ADM's interest in CIP.
