Issue of Redeemable Shares
The Company has today issued 199,987,585 redeemable shares of £1 each to the
holders of its ordinary shares on the register of members as at close of
business on 28 January 2004 (the "Record Time").
On the basis of 2,768,595,717 ordinary shares in issue at the Record Time, the
redeemable shares have been allotted on the following basis:
for every 13.841 ordinary shares held 1 redeemable share
Where a fractional entitlement to a redeemable share would otherwise arise, the
number of redeemable shares to be issued to a particular shareholder has been
rounded down to the nearest whole number.
A summary of the rights attaching to the redeemable shares is set out in Part
Eight of the joint shareholder circular sent to the shareholders of the Company
and Carlton Communications Plc ("Carlton") on 8 December 2003. As set out in
that circular, it is the Company's current intention that, assuming completion
of the Company's merger with Carlton (currently expected to occur on 2 February
2004), the redeemable shares will be redeemed by the Company by 28 February
2004. On that basis, no application has been, or will be, made for the
redeemable shares to be listed on any stock exchange and no share certificates
will be issued evidencing shareholders' entitlements.
