Re: Disclosure of Interest in ASOS plc

Company Secretary:

Enclosed is a TR-1 Notification dated 5 October 2012.

The Capital Group Companies, Inc. ("CGC") is the parent company of Capital Research and Management Company ("CRMC"). CRMC is a U.S.-based investment management company that manages the American Funds family of mutual funds. CGC is also the parent company of Capital Group International, Inc. ("CGII"), which in turn is the parent company of five investment management companies: Capital Guardian Trust Company, Capital International, Inc., Capital International Limited, Capital International Sárl and Capital International K.K.

Neither CGC nor any of its affiliates own shares of your company for its own account. Rather, the shares reported on this Notification are owned by accounts under the discretionary investment management of one or more of the investment management companies described above.

For the purpose of this Report, the total voting rights figure of 81,524,877 shares was used to calculate the percentage of holdings. We believe this figure is current; however, if this number is not accurate, please contact us as soon as possible so we may make the necessary revisions.

Should you have questions or require additional information, please contact us at (213) 615-0469, or send a fax message to (213) 615-4056. Alternatively, you may contact us via e-mail at GRGroup@capgroup.com.
