SCRIP DIVIDEND SHARES - ADDITIONAL LISTING

The NESF Board wishes to confirm the following in respect of the scrip dividend: 

Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for 44,646 ordinary shares to be admitted to trading. These ordinary shares are to be issued as a scrip dividend alternative to receiving a cash dividend in respect of the dividend for the fourth quarter of the Company's 2016/17 financial year. Dealings are expected to commence at 8:00 a.m. on 30 June 2017. 

Immediately following Admission, the Company's issued share capital will comprise 571,432,845 ordinary shares, none of which will be held in treasury. Each ordinary share carries the right to one vote and, therefore, the total number of voting rights in the Company on Admission will be 571,432,845. This figure may be used by shareholders and other investors as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
