Issued share capital

1 July 2008

As a result of conversion of 5,600 Convertible Preferred Ordinary Shares of 100p ("CPO Shares") in the capital of Celtic plc during June 2008, the Company's issued share capital at 30 June 2008 was as follows:

88,614,549 Ordinary Shares of 1p each 

14,501,991 Cumulative Convertible Preferred Ordinary Shares of 100p each

16,795,912 Cumulative Convertible Preference Shares of 60 p each 

444,285,143 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, under the FSA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.

Application is being made for the 11,648 new Ordinary Shares of 1p each arising from the conversion of CPO shares to be listed with effect from 9 July 2008.
