Issue of Equity

27 September 2011

Scapa Group plc ('the Company')

Additional Listing of Shares

An application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for 83,624 Ordinary Shares of 5p each to be admitted to trading on AIM. Admission is expected to take place at 8.00 am on 3 October 2011. The shares will be issued fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing issued Ordinary Shares of the Company.

These shares will be issued under the rules of the Scapa Group 2001 Sharesave Scheme.

The Company confirms that at 3 October 2011 its issued share capital comprises 145,262,050 ordinary shares of 5p each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares"). All of the Ordinary Shares have equal voting rights, and none of the Ordinary Shares are held in Treasury. The total number of voting rights in Scapa is therefore 145,262,050.

This figure 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 to their interest in, the share capital of Scapa under the FSA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
