Michelmersh Brick Holdings PLC

("Michelmersh" or the "Company")

Acquisition

Trading Update

Notice of Results

Michelmersh (AIM:MBH) announces that it has acquired a 25 per cent. shareholding in Jeffery Building Products Limited ("Jeffery"), a brick distribution business covering the North of England. The consideration payable is £50,000 to be satisfied by the issue of 125,000 ordinary shares of 20 pence each in Michelmersh at a price of 40 pence per share ("Consideration Shares").

The acquisition of this stake in Jeffery represents a strategic partnership in a geographical area where Michelmersh has, to date, had limited representation and presents an opportunity to expand sales and establish a presence in a potentially lucrative market.

Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for the Consideration Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission"). It is expected that Admission and dealings will commence on 6 April 2011. The Consideration Shares shall be subject to standard lock in provisions from completion, which shall include a prohibition on the sale of Consideration Shares for a period of 36 months from completion followed by a further period of 24 months during which any sale, transfer or other disposal of the Consideration Shares may only be effected through Michelmersh's Nominated Adviser and Broker on a best price and execution basis.

Following Admission, the Company's issued share capital will consist of 58,227,154 ordinary shares of 20p each with voting rights. No ordinary shares are held in treasury. Therefore the total number of voting rights in Michelmersh will be 58,227,154. The above figure 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 to their interest in, Michelmersh under the FSA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.

Trading Update

Michelmersh is pleased to report that orders, sales and production of brick products in the first quarter of 2011 were ahead of budget and the Board is encouraged for the prospects for 2011.

Notice of Results

Michelmersh intends to release the preliminary results for the 12 months ended 31 December 2010 on Monday 9 May 2011.
