Issue of Equity

CELTIC PLC (the "Company")

Issued share capital

As a result of the conversion of 4,700 Convertible Preferred Ordinary Shares of 100p each ("CPO Shares") and 18,013 Cumulative Convertible Preference Shares of 60p each in June, Celtic PLC's issued share capital as at 1 July 2013 was as follows:

91,152,276 Ordinary Shares of 1p each

13,867,893 Cumulative Convertible Preferred Ordinary Shares of 100p each

16,253,051 Cumulative Convertible Preference Shares of 60 p each

538,404,821 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 has been made for the admission of the 27,789 new Ordinary Shares of 1p each arising from these conversions ("New Ordinary Shares") to trading on AIM. It is expected that dealings in these New Ordinary Shares, which will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing Ordinary Shares of the Company, will commence on 16 July 2013.
