Update on Deleveraging Plan

On 6 February the Board announced that the key commercial terms of its Deleveraging Plan had been agreed with its lenders, bonding providers and Pension Trustee.

It is now expected that Interserve will publish shareholder documents next week which will include the notice of a General Meeting of Interserve at which shareholder approval of the Deleveraging Plan will be sought. The documents will also set out the full terms of the Deleveraging Plan.

Overnight the Board received an outline proposal from Coltrane Asset Management, which it is considering.

The Board confirms that it remains committed to achieving a consensual deleveraging plan.
