Share Subdivision and HMRC Approval

Further to the Company's announcement of 26 April 2012, the Company is pleased to announce that it has received HMRC Approval in relation to the Share Subdivision.

Subject to the passing of the resolution to be proposed at the Company's annual general meeting on 21 May 2012 (the "Annual General Meeting"), it is expected that the Official List of the UK Listing Authority will be amended to reflect the Share Subdivision with effect from 8.00 a.m. on 28 May 2012 (the "Effective Date").

Conditional upon the Share Subdivision becoming effective, new share certificates in respect of each shareholder's holding of new ordinary shares of 4 1/6 pence each (the "New Ordinary Shares") will be sent to the holders of certificated shares following the Effective Date. Shareholders who hold their shares in uncertificated form will have their CREST accounts credited on the Effective Date.

The New Ordinary Shares will have the ISIN code GB00B6XZKY75.

Capitalised terms used in this announcement and not otherwise defined have the meanings given to them in the Company's Notice of Annual General Meeting (which is incorporated in its Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 28 January 2012).
