IMPORTANT NOTICE

This announcement does not constitute or form part of an offer to sell or issue or a solicitation of an offer to purchase or subscribe for the Notes in the United States, Canada, Australia, Japan or any jurisdiction in which such offers, sales or solicitation would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the relevant securities laws of any such jurisdiction and is not intended to provide the basis for any credit or other evaluation of the Notes. 

The Notes may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, US persons unless they are registered or exempt from registration under the US Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "US Securities Act"). Taylor Wimpey is not making a public offer of the Notes in the United States.

In particular, the Notes have not been, and will not be, registered under the US Securities Act, and may not be offered, sold or transferred directly or indirectly within the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the US Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The Notes are being offered and sold outside the United States in accordance with Regulation S under the US Securities Act. The Notes will not be registered under or offered in compliance with applicable securities laws of any state, province, territory, county or jurisdiction of the United States, Canada, Australia, Japan or any other jurisdiction where the extension or availability of the Notes (and any other transaction contemplated thereby) would breach any applicable law. Accordingly, unless an exemption under the relevant securities law is applicable, the Notes may not be offered, sold, resold, delivered or distributed, directly or indirectly, in or into the United States, Canada, Australia, Japan or any other jurisdiction if to do so would breach any applicable law, or require registration thereof in such jurisdiction. No public offering of the Notes is being made in the United States. In addition, any relevant securities registration or other clearances have not been and will not be made or obtained with or from the relevant authorities in any other jurisdiction except the United Kingdom.

This communication and the Offering Circular are not being distributed to or directed at persons other than persons whose ordinary activities involve them in acquiring, holding, managing or disposing of investments (as principal or agent) for the purposes of their businesses or who it is reasonable to expect will acquire, hold, manage or dispose of investments (as principal or agent) for the purposes of their businesses where the issue of the Notes would otherwise constitute a contravention of section 19 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 ("FSMA") by us. In addition, no person may communicate or cause to be communicated any invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within the meaning of section 21 of FSMA) received by it in connection with the issue or sale of the Notes other than in circumstances in which section 21(1) of FSMA does not apply to us.
