For 2012 these were issued at 84.10 pence per share, being the average closing mid-price of the 10 trading days prior to the 6 January 2012. The 33,865 new ordinary shares shall rank pari passu with the existing issued ordinary shares of the Company and have been issued as follows:
Director | Number of ordinary shares issued for 2012 remuneration | Total number of ordinary shares held | Percentage of the Company's issued share capital |

For the purposes of the Disclosure and Transparency Rules, the Company's total issued share capital at the date of this announcement is 77,447,946 ordinary shares of 0.2p each, with one voting right per share. There are no shares held in treasury. The total number of voting rights in the Company is therefore 77,447,946.
