Exercise of Options

The Company announces that options over 2,932 new ordinary shares of 5p each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") have today been exercised pursuant to the WH Ireland Group plc Save As You Earn schemes by a former employee of the Company at an aggregate exercise price of £1,369.52.

Application has been made for the 2,932 new Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission"). Admission is expected to become effective on 14 November 2013 and the new Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with the Company's existing Ordinary Shares in issue.

For the purposes of the Financial Services Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules ("DTRs"), the issued ordinary share capital of the Company following Admission will consist of 23,704,321 Ordinary Shares with voting rights attached (one vote per Ordinary Share). There are no Ordinary Shares held in treasury. This total voting rights figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine whether they are required to notify their interests in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the DTRs.
