Award of shares under the Share Incentive Plan

The Company announces that it received notification on 17 January 2012 that, following payroll contributions made on 31 December 2011, Cyril Sweett Trustee Company Limited, trustee of the HMRC approved Cyril Sweett All Employee Share Ownership Plan ("SIP'), awarded 40,143 ordinary shares of 10 pence each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") to participants in the SIP. All of the 40,143 shares were unallocated shares already held in the SIP.

The SIP is a discretionary trust for the benefit of employees of the Company and participating subsidiaries, which holds Ordinary shares acquired and/or awarded under the partnership, matching, free and dividend shares sections of the plan. Following a change to the SIP Trust Deed and Rules on 1 January 2011, eligible participating employees now contribute funds to purchase partnership shares on a monthly basis. Dividends in respect of shares held by the SIP are re-invested to purchase dividend shares.

Following the appropriation Cyril Sweett Trustee Company Limited holds 10,655,015 Ordinary shares representing 16.07% of the issued share capital of the Company.

Under the SIP, Mr Dean Webster, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and Mr Derek Pitcher, a Director of the Company, each purchased 758 ordinary shares at a price of 16.5 pence per share via contributions made on 31 December 2011.

As a result of dividend re-investment, 1,240 dividend shares were awarded to Dean Webster and 502 dividend shares were awarded to Derek Pitcher on 24 January 2012 at a price of 21.5p.

Therefore the following Directors' beneficial holdings in the Company have changed following these appropriations:
