Issued share capital

1 October 2008

As a result of the conversion of 26,000 Convertible Preferred Ordinary Shares of 100p each ("CPO Shares") in the capital of Celtic plc into 54,080 Ordinary Shares of 1p each during September 2008, the Company's current issued share capital is as follows:

89,493,168 Ordinary Shares of 1p each 

14,183,291 Cumulative Convertible Preferred Ordinary Shares of 100p each

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

448,123,607  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 is being made for the 54,080 new Ordinary Shares of 1p each arising from the conversion of CPO shares to be listed with effect from 8 October 2008.
