Offer Update

600 Group PLC ("600 Group" or the "Company")

Offer update

On 11 September 2013 600 Group announced that it received an approach from Qingdao D&D Investment Group Co. Ltd ("D&D") that may or may not lead to a cash offer being made for the Company. Since that time the Directors of the Company have been in detailed discussions with the management of D&D and have concluded that an asset sale rather than an offer for the Company represents the most appropriate way to facilitate a value enhancing transaction for shareholders. Consequently discussions are on-going with D&D regarding a potential sale of selected 600 Group assets which, if successful, is likely to result in a transaction requiring shareholder approval.

D&D is restricted from announcing an offer or possible offer for 600 Group (and / or taking any other action which would otherwise be restricted under Rule 2.8 of the Code) within the next six months following the date of this announcement except in the circumstances set out in Note 2 to Rule 2.8 of the Code.

The 600 Group can confirm it is not in discussions with any other party regarding a potential offer for the Company. Accordingly, the Company is no longer in an offer period for the purposes of the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers.

A further announcement regarding the potential sale of assets to D&D will be made when appropriate.

This announcement has been made with the consent of D&D.
