Update on the Restructuring and Company accounts 
 
The Board continues to progress the Restructuring as described in the circular 
to Shareholders dated 31 March 2010 and the support of Shareholders for the 
De-listing adds to the Board's confidence in achieving a successful outcome. 
Shareholders should however note that the Restructuring remains subject to 
contract (and, in the case of each of the Banks, credit sanction), Takeover 
Panel approval, Shareholder consent for the Restructuring, the formal clearance 
of the Pensions Regulator, the formal approval of the PPF and various pension 
trustees and any other relevant regulatory approvals.  The Restructuring will be 
the subject of a further circular to Shareholders which the Directors intend to 
publish in due course. 
 
In the circular to Shareholders dated 31 March 2010, the Board stated its 
intention to publish the Group's audited accounts for the 18 month period to 30 
September 2009 during April 2010, subject to agreeing the detailed terms of the 
Restructuring.  The detailed terms of the Restructuring were not progressed to a 
sufficiently advanced stage to allow these accounts to be published before the 
end of the month.  However the Board will endeavour to publish the audited 
accounts for the 18 month period to 30 September 2009 as soon as possible.  In 
any event, these accounts will be required for incorporation into the circular 
to Shareholders to be published in relation to the Restructuring.
