As a result of the conversion of 800 Convertible Preferred Ordinary Shares of 100p each ("CPO Shares") into 1,664 Ordinary Shares of 1p each, and the conversion of 1,000 Cumulative Convertible Preference Shares of 60p each into 1,000 Ordinary Shares of 1p each during December 2008, the Company's issued share capital at 31 December 2008 was:

485,343,371 Deferred Shares of 1p each

Cumulative Convertible Preference Shares do not carry voting rights. Deferred Shares are not listed, are not transferable and carry no voting rights or substantive economic rights.

The above figures for Ordinary Shares and CPO Shares may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change in their interest in voting rights under the FSA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.

Application is being made for the 2,664 new Ordinary Shares of 1p each arising from these conversions to be listed with effect from 13 January 2009.
