Tottenham Hotspur PLC 21 January 2004 21 January 2004 Tottenham Hotspur plc ('the Company') Results of Share Offers and Extraordinary General Meeting On 23 December 2003, the Company announced the terms of Share Offers to raise £15 million (before expenses) by way of the issue of 60,000 convertible redeemable preference shares in the Company ('Preference Shares'). By the close of the Share Offers, 27,957 Preference Shares (worth £6,989,250 at the subscription price and representing 46.6% of the number of Preference Shares available for subscription) had been applied for by Qualifying Shareholders. Of these, 766 (£191,500 at the subscription price) were subscribed by small shareholders who subscribed for one Preference Share each and 27,191 (£6,797,750 at the subscription price) by 126 larger shareholders. The balance of 32,043 Preference Shares have been taken up by ENIC Sports Limited ('ENIC Sports') pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement. At the Extraordinary General Meeting held today, all resolutions were passed, in particular the two resolutions proposed in connection with waivers of the obligation that may otherwise arise for ENIC Sports to make a general offer for the voting shares in the Company under Rule 9 of the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers as a result of the acquisition by ENIC Sports of Preference Shares pursuant to the Share Offers. Application has been made for the Preference Shares and the existing Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM and dealings are expected to commence on 23 January 2004. If all the Preference Shares are converted into Ordinary Shares (which may only occur on 31 October 2007 and each anniversary thereafter, except in certain circumstances), ENIC Sports would hold 99,454,859 Ordinary Shares, representing 50.8 per cent. of the enlarged issued share capital of the Company. If only ENIC Sports converts all the Preference Shares held by it (assuming that the Company's current authority to buy back ordinary shares is exercised in full), ENIC Sports would hold 61.8 per cent. of the enlarged issued share capital of the Company.
